WP:INDICSCRIPT

edit

Hi. Please review the consensus on WP:INDICSCRIPT. Please also note that editing against consensus (which, in this case, means repeatedly adding indic scripts to articles) is considered disruptive and can lead to WP:blocks and/or bans. --regentspark (comment) 17:27, 7 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Alexander_the_Great, you may be blocked from editing. Please stop edit warring, you've been reverted several times but continue to make the same unhelpful and disruptive edit. UCaetano (talk) 09:45, 8 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into Shimla. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 12:14, 11 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Yes ofcourse, I will keep that in mind. Nemo 838 (talk) 14:00, 11 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Mughal Empire; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. regentspark (comment) 01:55, 14 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Bhagat Singh

edit

You reverted a removal of mine a Bhagat Singh with this edit. You did not explain why but I did give an explanation for taking it out, which fundamentally is covered by WP:OVERCITE - the source is unnecessary because the next source in the section verifies the information anyway. - Sitush (talk) 13:17, 16 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Do also note that you should not mark any revert you do, unless it is clearly vandalism, as minor. In this case, you reverted an edit that came with a justification in the edit summary as a minor edit, a definite no-no. Please read WP:ME. --regentspark (comment) 13:36, 16 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Oldest article

edit

I don't remember, and I'm not sure what IP address I was using in those days but I think the first article may have been Wales. Deb (talk) 08:27, 19 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Hi Nemo 838! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Mughal Empire that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

Recent edit reversion

edit

In this edit here, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of our copyright policy.

I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted. If that information is not sufficient to explain the situation, please ask.S Philbrick(Talk) 20:14, 30 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Minor

edit

You have been adviced about this before. This edit cannot by any stretch of imagination be considered a minor edit. Please see WP:MINOR: Marking a major change as a minor one is considered poor etiquette. Continuing to do so after having been adviced about it several times can be considered disruptive. --T*U (talk) 15:29, 2 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
