Disambiguation link notification for September 28 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Rajiv Gandhi College of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Breeding (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your draft article, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/M.S.Viswanathan's Discography edit

 

Hello Showmethedoor. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "M.S.Viswanathan's Discography".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/M.S.Viswanathan's Discography}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, click "Save", and an administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. HasteurBot (talk) 22:30, 25 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Undid edit at Aksai Chin edit

Hello, I undid your edit at Aksai Chin. When you come up with controversial claims, it is first good to ask for source rather than delete claims straight away. I have undid your edit and placed a citation needed template instead, hoping that someone can come up with a reliable source to verify the claim.

Article on Azad Kashmir October 2014 edit

  Need your help on Azad Kashmir page. I've not added my own personal analysis to Wikipedia article on Azad Kashmir. I just added Instrument of Accession with India which is a fact, even as per Wikipedia. It does not violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia in any form, as per TopGun and IgnorantArmies claim. They both are undoing my change. Since you've done some edit on Azad Kashmir, it'll be helpful if you can come and help me. I'm new to Wikipedia. I've provided external link as well from princeton.edu today. Please do not delete or revert the changes. Wikipedia is for related information to be shown to the world that J&K was accesended to India. In fact we need to change the title of the page itself to something more generic, not Azad Kashmir. Thank you. ljinishansl (talk)Jinishans (talk) 22:28, 22 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

Deepvali edit

While I understand what you were trying to do, is there any indication that this is the WP:COMMONNAME that should be given priority in the lead? We do not necessarily go by what is "accurate etymological terms", but what is in the plurality of English-language reliable sources. ViperSnake151  Talk  15:26, 17 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Thanks and if there is no indication of priority on what etymological name should take precedence, it is imperative to maintain neutrality in referring to this festival by using both the terminologies, interchangeably. No harm in that! In the same paragraph, in one sentence if we use Diwali, in another, we could use as Diwali.
