Rooftop Solar Power

why did you revert my additions to regarding rooftop solar, i aint promoting anything, material is available on internet i just added to a wiki page. please check the source before reverting. thank you http://mercomcapital.com/northern-railways-to-install-5-mw-rooftop-solar-in-four-of-its-stations Joydeep ghosh 09:03, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

@Joydeep ghosh: Have you seen the edit summary that i provided? Well if not, in short understand that you are pushing or promoting on particular aspect in multiple articles which is deemed as citation spamming. This looks like you may have conflict of interest with a solar product related company, possibly Vivaan Solar. --βα£α(ᶀᶅᶖᵵᵶ) 10:37, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

dear balablitz i am not promoting anything or anyone. I added these materails in respective wiki pages just to be sure i am the first one to do it. Joydeep ghosh (talk) 10:54, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

@Joydeep ghosh: And still that is considered as spamming with citation. Please do the mind the policies and guidelines clearly as laid out. Else you can ask someone at teahouse. --βα£α(ᶀᶅᶖᵵᵶ) 11:18, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

if I cant make additions based on the source now, will it be a problem if i make the additions some time later. what if someone else does it before me :-) Joydeep ghosh (talk) 11:26, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

@Joydeep ghosh: Whenever or whomsoever, the policies and guidelines won't be changed without consensus at anytime for anyone. The same action applies subject to the policies and guidelines of Wikipedia. --βα£α(ᶀᶅᶖᵵᵶ) 11:33, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

so what do i need to do so as to not to make it look like a promotion while making additions, any idea. Joydeep ghosh (talk) 12:04, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

Mind your tone while writing. Find reliable secondary and tertiary sources. When adding such type of information see these, WP:NTT & WP:NOTADVOCATE. --βα£α(ᶀᶅᶖᵵᵶ) 12:35, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

hey dear balablitz i have question you say the rooftop solar additions were akin to promotion but just one question when i added the material i clearly differentiated between the capacities of each railway station, so does it is considered as spamming. Joydeep ghosh (talk) 10:50, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

There's not much differentiation. Because you were trying to incorporate the deleted content repeatedly only after it was deleted. This raises suspicion that you may have close connection with the subject. --βα£α(ᶀᶅᶖᵵᵶ) 12:23, 11 March 2017 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Yuddho, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Telegraph. 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.

Why my edited content revert on the page of Purushottam_Express & Kalindi_Express

Can you please explain to me what is the reason behind the changes revert.

No timetables or schedules are accepted as per this guideline, WP:NOTTIMETABLE. --βα£α(ᶀᶅᶖᵵᵶ) 12:03, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
Don't forget to place your sign, when you finish you statements. --βα£α(ᶀᶅᶖᵵᵶ) 12:28, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
