AfD Nomination: Manipal bug edit

 

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but all Wikipedia articles must meet our criteria for inclusion (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Since it does not seem that Manipal bug meets these criteria, an editor has started a discussion about whether this article should be kept or deleted.

Your opinion on whether this article meets the inclusion criteria is welcome. Please contribute to the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Manipal bug. Don't forget to add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of each of your comments to sign them.

Discussions such as these usually last seven days. In the meantime, you are free to edit the content of the article. Please do not remove the "articles for deletion" template (the box at the top). When the discussion has concluded, a neutral third party will consider all comments and decide whether or not to delete the article. Cunard (talk) 06:40, 23 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Note that, in case the current consensus is to delete the article from wikipedia, you have the option of preserving it for some time in your userspace till more sources are found to establish notability. Please comment at the AFD discussion if you are interested in this option. Cheers. Abecedare (talk) 00:10, 24 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

August 2015 edit

 

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Swami Nithyananda. 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.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  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; 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. Ian.thomson (talk) 23:04, 11 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Please avoid using... edit

Please avoid using <ref>... </ref> on talk pages. Please just use a bare url, such as what you did in much of this section: Talk:Swami Nithyananda#Discuss statements marked dubious. I.e. http://www.thenewsminute.com/lives/258, preferably with a description. Otherwise the section should have a {{reflist}} at the bottom or it 'sticks' to the bottom of the page without numbering. Then it is hard to read, hard to find, and gets mixed up with other sections.
I did add one to the previous subsection which you removed for unknown reasons. Thanks Jim1138 (talk) 20:58, 12 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Not sure but i remember seeing an error message in the reflist section, so I think i was trying to fix it. As for usage of <ref>... </ref> on talk pages, I will keep that in mind, I actually copy pasted the edit on talk page for reference and discussion. A contributor was reverting changes and not discussing so I kept a copy on the talk page so that he may exactly pin point where the problem is.

Conflict of interest edit

  Hello, Shashaanktulsyan. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Swami Nithyananda, you may have a conflict of interest. People with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, see the conflict of interest guideline and frequently asked questions for organizations. In particular, please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, its competitors, or projects and products you or they are involved with;
  • instead, propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing, and autobiographies. Thank you. Jim1138 (talk) 09:57, 8 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Swami Nithyananda edit

This needs a much better source per wp:BLP - WP:PUBLICFIGURE 1) Is it necessary, or is an attempt to smear? Please avoid adding such material without such sources. A link to the court records would be in order. Jim1138 (talk) 06:40, 31 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

ANI notice edit

December 2016 edit

  Your recent edits to Talk:Swami Nithyananda could give Wikipedia contributors the impression that you may consider legal or other "off-wiki" action against them, or against Wikipedia itself. Please note that making such threats on Wikipedia is strictly prohibited under Wikipedia's policies on legal threats and civility. Users who make such threats may be blocked. If you have a dispute with the content of any page on Wikipedia, please follow the proper channels for dispute resolution. Please be sure to comment on content, not contributors, and where possible make specific suggestions for changes supported by reliable independent sources and focusing especially on verifiable errors of fact. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:24, 28 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for making legal threats or taking legal action. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

You are not allowed to edit Wikipedia while the threats stand or the legal action is unresolved.  ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 12:37, 28 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
