Your contributed article, Mumbai Tuluva edit

 

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Mumbai Tuluva. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Tuluva. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Tuluva - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Linguisticgeek (talk) 12:39, 11 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

August 2010 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from India. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. —SpacemanSpiff 17:50, 12 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

  • Please do not make POV edits to Wikipedia articles, even minor word changes like change "in the" to "by" as you did on India that change the meaning of the sentences entirely. If you continue making such edits that do not conform with Wikipedia's policies, you will be blocked. —SpacemanSpiff 04:42, 13 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

  This is the final warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits. The next time you violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by inserting commentary or your personal analysis into an article, as you did to India, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. —SpacemanSpiff 04:58, 13 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

November 2010 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Tuluva has been reverted, as it appears to have removed content from the page without explanation. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you. —Justin (koavf)TCM☯ 16:53, 28 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Your arbitration request edit

Hello, I saw you making a request to the Arbitration Committee. Please be advised that this is very unlikely to be accepted as a case, because the committee only takes a lot more serious cases, and only as the last stage in dispute resolution, after every other means has failed. You should try to resolve your disagreement through other means, for instance by asking for third opinions, general comments, or if that fails, mediation. In any case, the first thing you should do is to stop edit-warring. Having the Arbcom getting involved in the case at this stage would almost certainly not be in your own best interest, because they'd very likely sanction you for the edit-warring. But they'll probably just decline the case anyway. Fut.Perf. 17:28, 14 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hello pdheru edit

Saw your edit to India, please write something on your userpage, so that it is not displayed in red as a non-existant page.Yogesh Khandke (talk) 15:12, 15 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Ghandi edit

  The Barnstar of Integrity
This is for making a change in order to comply with a consensus which developed against your viewpoint, in this case the use of Mahatma Gandhi over Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. These are the sort of actions that allow community editing to function. Chipmunkdavis (talk) 14:09, 28 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

India Image Vote Results Disagreement edit

Hi,

Thank you for voting in the India Demographics Image Vote. I have counted the results of the vote and displayed them here. The top 8 images with the most votes were displayed.

Unfortunately, User:Fowler&fowler believes that he should be the one that gets to pick the final images, despite the fact that all of us have voted. He has called me disruptive, and when I tried to explain myself, he has reverted my explanation on the talk page twice!!! How can a user just delete someone else's comments on the Talk page?

Wikipedia consensus says that the images that most people have agreed upon should be the ones in the rotation. One user can't just pick his own images when all of us have voted. What's the point of voting then?? I am not sure what to do.

Since you voted, please post your opinion here. Thanks. Nikkul (talk) 02:53, 29 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

January 2012 edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to Mangalore does not have an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. Thanks!
