Hello, Yjain.2007, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like this place and decide to stay.

Why can't I edit some particular pages?
Some pages that have been vandalized repeatedly are semi-protected, meaning that editing by new or unregistered users is prohibited through technical measures. If you have an account that is four days old and has made at least 10 edits, then you can bypass semi-protection and edit any semi-protected page. Some pages, such as highly visible templates, are fully-protected, meaning that only administrators can edit them. If this is not the case, you may have been blocked or your IP address caught up in a range block.
Where can I experiment with editing Wikipedia?
How do I create an article?
See how to create your first article, then use the Article Wizard to create one, and add references to the article as explained below.
How do I create citations?
  1. Do a search on Google or your preferred search engine for the subject of the Wikipedia article that you want to create a citation for.
  2. Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
  3. In a new tab/window, go to the citation generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out as many fields as you can about the website you just found.
  4. Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
  5. Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text (it will be something like <ref> {{cite web | .... }}</ref>, copy the whole thing).
  6. In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
  7. If the article does not have a References or Notes section (or the like), add this to the bottom of the page, but above the External Links section and the categories:
==References==
{{Reflist}}
What is a WikiProject, and how do I join one?
A WikiProject is a group of editors that are interested in improving the coverage of certain topics on Wikipedia. (See this page for a complete list of WikiProjects.) If you would like to help, add your username to the list that is on the bottom of the WikiProject page.

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Hoshangabad. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 15:55, 20 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

I note you have moved Hoshangabad district to Narmadapuram district without any discussion, let alone agreement. This has been reverted - please do not make such moves in future until you have consensus - Arjayay (talk) 15:57, 20 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Hoshangabad, you may be blocked from editing. - Arjayay (talk) 15:59, 20 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

  This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. You must stop moving pages now.kashmīrī TALK 09:45, 30 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

  • Warning @Yjain.2007: You will be blocked if there any further undiscussed page moves. Make proposals on article talk and wait for consensus. Johnuniq (talk) 09:57, 30 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

@RegentsPark: could you block this editor rightaway? They keep on moving pages without discussion. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 12:52, 30 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Camel case

edit

Do NOT use camel case in common nouns, as you did e.g., here. Generally - go to Introduction and read about editing first before making any changes to the live Wikipedia. As of now, nearly all of your 100+ edits had to be reverted. — kashmīrī TALK 10:02, 30 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Aurangabad division.

Multiple accounts

edit

  Hello, Yjain.2007, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as Prithivirajlogu (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. — kashmīrī TALK 15:21, 12 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

I don't know whether Prithivirajlogu is you, but I do know that you have been editing as YJash, including editing pages that you have also edited under this account. That is not acceptable, and I would usually block accounts I discover doing things like that indefinitely, but because Kashmiri has advocated showing you some leniency, so please take this as a final warning - if you are caught editing under multiple accounts again, the next block will not be temporary.

This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

I know, you have blocked me for making an unmeaningful page 'Chakravarti (in JainDharma)' and moving it to different titles, but it was just an error of my system that I wasn't able to make any edit in it's content, I don't had any intention like that. I request you to think me as your junior, and made such mistake as a human.. Yjain.2007 (talk) 13:16, 26 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
Yjain.2007, you need to review WP:Guide to appealing blocks (GAB), think about the advice in it and follow the instructions in this notice and file a correct unblock request. Just saying you're sorry isn't sufficient. You have to acknowledge what mistakes you've made and how you will avoid them in the future. But please, read the GAB page. It will tell you what you need to do. Liz Read! Talk! 17:31, 26 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
You have been told not to use camel case. Still, you persist in using "JainDharma" both in the deleted article and in your draft Draft:Tallest statues related to JainDharma(Jainism). Are you at all able to take any advice on board? — kashmīrī TALK 19:03, 26 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Yjain.2007. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Tallest statues related to JainDharma".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. plicit 14:44, 25 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
