Warning

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. --Kansas Bear (talk) 01:34, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

I’ve heavily researched the Anglo-Sikh wars. The battle of mudki should be inconclusive or a Sikh victory because the battle didn’t decide much of anything although British suffered heavier casualties. Amarpal Singh a historian on the war said that both sides had roughly 20k troops. Both the commanders Lal singh and tej Singh commanded 10k each. During the battle of Mudki there were indeed only 10-11k British troops but for the Sikhs Lal Singh spilt his force in half as his goal was to lose the war so it would be 5k. Ferozshah should be a draw, it literally states in the rest of the reading that the British withdrew and tej singh ended up doing the same. The British suffered way more casualties in this battle so how is it a British victory? Chillianwala is know to be the greatest Indian victory against the British during this time. It again states that both sides claim victory but that the British did withdraw first and that even though the British had every statical advantage failed to defeat the Sikhs. This battle also had a hand in inspiring the rebellion of 1857 Historian2325 (talk) 01:44, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

Again in the first Anglo-sikh war both sides had 20k troops it makes no sense why at ferozshah the Sikh troops are numbering between 35-50k. In the battle of sobroan more troops were sent giving the Sikhs 40k total but that was the last battle in the first war. Historian2325 (talk) 01:47, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

So can I not view the Sikh empire battles anymore Historian2325 (talk) 22:40, 30 April 2023 (UTC)

Currently there is no restriction on what you can edit. However you need to start citing sources for your edits to the articles, and if those edits are disputed, you need to discuss them on the talk-page till consensus is reached instead of simply re-doing the edit with a new edit-summary. Note that this advice applies to everyone editing on wikipedia, and especially in contentious topic-areas. Let me know if you have any questions. Abecedare (talk) 22:47, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
