Welcome! edit

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

Someone using this IP address, 39.47.170.56, has made unconstructive edits, which have been reverted. If you did this, in the future please try to contribute in a more constructive manner. If you'd like to experiment with the syntax, please do so in the sandbox rather than in articles. If you did not do this, you may wish to consider getting a username to avoid confusion with other editors.

February 2016 edit

  Please stop attacking other editors, as you did on User talk:HIAS. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Kautilya3 (talk) 16:20, 6 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

  Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to Madan Mohan Malaviya does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! Kautilya3 (talk) 16:22, 6 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

February 2016 edit

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at Demographics of Pakistan, you may be blocked from editing. Warning for unexplained seemingly POV removal of sourced content. Thomas.W talk 16:58, 6 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
