Recent edits to Indian subcontinent
editHello, and thank you for your recent contributions. While the content of your edit may be true, I have removed it because its depth or nature of detail are not consistent with our objectives as an encyclopedia. We recognize that your edit was made in good faith and hope you will familiarize yourself with our policies so we maycollaborate in the future. Thank you!

- What are you talking about? It's per the source. Just because another editor believes the subcontinent to look like a triangle, does not mean we strip information we don't like. 70.54.134.84 (talk) 16:58, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
- It's not a matter of whether it looks like a diamond, a triangle, or a rhomboid, what matters is whether any description like that fits the encyclopedic tone that we strive for on Wikipedia. At this point instead of reverting again you should bring it up for discussion on the talk page and try to build a consensus. SQGibbon (talk) 19:00, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

editYour recent editing history at Indian subcontinent shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Keri (talk) 19:47, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at South Asia, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Faizan -Let's talk! 18:43, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Indian subcontinent. 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, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
- 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. SQGibbon (talk) 16:25, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Quebec French
editThe sentence is about French spoken in Quebec and the linked article is on Quebec French. The Canadian French article is about French in Canada in general. The more specific article is more appropriate. Leave it. freshacconci talktalk 12:25, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
- You are connecting dots. The referenced StatsCan article simply makes mention of French. 70.54.134.84 (talk) 14:52, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
- The reference has nothing to do with it. The sentence is talking about Quebec so the best wikilink is to the article on Quebec French specifically, not French in Canada in general. You're clearly a edit warrior but I suggest you leave it alone or do the proper thing and discuss it on the talk page per WP:BRD. You're only doing the first two and as you're attempting to change something, it's up to you to make your case on the talk page. freshacconci talktalk 10:56, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
Misinterpretation of WP:UNDERLINK
editWP:UNDERLINK doesn't state that a nation must be linked in order to as was the case withThe Star-Spangled Banner before you decided to OVERLINK it. Walter Görlitz (talk) 15:30, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
- Please - do you realize how idiotic that argument sounds? For 'The Star-Spangled Banner', the initial mention of the country was linked to correct underlinking. To be plain, any attempt to delink these relevant articles will be corrected unless supported by a clear consensus. 70.54.134.84 (talk) 15:35, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
