Some cookies to welcome you!  

Welcome to Wikipedia, CyberJagrithi! Thank you for your contributions. I am Girth Summit and I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{help me}} at the bottom of this page. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! GirthSummit (blether) 17:05, 16 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Grammatical changes

edit

Hi - again, welcome to Wikipedia! I don't want to be discouraging, but I'm afraid that I just went through some of your recent contributions and undid them. If you are going to edit other people's work, please be careful to make sure that what you are doing is improving the prose. Quite a few of your recent edits seemed to be grammatical changes, but they ended up introducing grammatical errors into the sentences - please don't do that. I also note that you haven't been using edit summaries when you change things - it's really important to do that, so that other editors can easily see what you are doing by looking at the articles' histories. Please read through the links in the welcome template above to learn more about editing, and again, welcome. Cheers GirthSummit (blether) 17:08, 16 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi again - you're still changing stuff that doesn't need changing. Rather than amending other people's sentences, why not try expanding an article with information from a reliable source? GirthSummit (blether) 17:38, 16 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
Hi once again - can I just point out WP:DATESNO to you? We don't use ordinals in dates (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th...), we just use the number (so, 17 July 2020 is correct; 17th July 2020 would be incorrect, in the eyes of our inhouse manual of style).

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy or request a change of username. It also appears that your account is intended to be used for the purpose of telling the world about an organization, person or cause that you consider worthwhile. Unfortunately, many good causes are not sufficiently notable for their own Wikipedia article, and all users are discouraged from editing in any area where they have an inherent conflict of interest. You may wish to consider one of these alternative outlets.
While user names that are the names of organizations are not permitted, you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Foundation", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87". Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text

{{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}

at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names.

 Thank you. Orange Mike | Talk 17:18, 17 July 2020 (UTC)Reply



 User:CyberJagrithi has been deleted
Hello, CyberJagrithi. Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia. I'm sorry, but  User:CyberJagrithi has been deleted as meeting WP:CSD#G11. "This applies to pages that are exclusively promotional and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to conform with Wikipedia:NOTFORPROMOTION." These must be rewritten from scratch from "reliable, third party sources unconnected to the subject." See WP:RS.

Wikipedia:Identifying blatant advertising#Typical signs of blatant advertising contains information about content to avoid. For more information on content that may be perceived as promotional, click User:Deepfriedokra/promo. These are just rough guides. Pages can avoid all those pitfalls and still be glaringly obvious ad copy. Sometimes pages meeting WP:CSD#G11 give the appearance of an editor violating Wikipedia:Conflict of interest or WP:PAID. Please read and heed them if they apply to you. Please read Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations.

There is a very common mistake of assuming that the prohibition against promotional editing applies only to promotion for commercial gain, but that is not so. Sometimes creators of promotional content are bewildered that it is considered such. If one has been trained to write or spent some time writing corporate documents or mission/vision statements or anything similar, they may simply be blind to the promotionality. It can be hard to unlearn.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources that are unconnected with the subject and providing verifiable information. That generally means someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written a great deal about the subject. Please see Wikipedia:Citing sources . Template:cite has templates you can use in citing your sources. Place the template {{references}} at the bottom of the page, and references cited in the text will appear there.

The new user tutorial can help you avoid future problems. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 18:55, 17 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
