Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:
    Do be bold
    Do assume good faith
    Do be civil
    Do keep cool!
    Do maintain a neutral point of view
    Don't spam
    Don't infringe copyright
    Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
    Don't commit vandalism

If you need further help, you can:
    Ask a question
or you can:
    Get help at the Teahouse
or even:
    Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
    Fight vandalism
    Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
    Help contribute to articles
    Perform maintenance tasks
           
    Become a member of a project that interests you
    Help design new templates
    Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Please remember to:

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the   button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

November 2014 edit

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Smriti Irani. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism. Thank you.

January 2015 edit

  Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to L0 Series Shinkansen, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

April 2019 edit

July 2019 edit

Your persistent addition of WP:puffery and incorrect information at Chandrayaan-2 is not helpful. The craft will NOT land at the south pole but at 70° South (out of 90°). Second: it will NOT land on the far side of the Moon (Hint: how will the laser retroreflector function if there is no direct line of sight with Earth?) Every space mission is unique and of course they all achieve a "first" in many aspects; your persistent introduction of list of future firsts (you even bold that word) is vanity blatantly exalting national pride, and guessing (WP:CRYSTALBALL) of future events. These are writing styles to be avoided in Wikipedia. Please rest assured that ISRO's excellency speaks for itself, its engineering performs without a marching band opening the way, and that many experienced Wikipedia editors will ensure that its future accomplishments will be included whenever they actually occur, and using neutral, objective, and encyclopedic language and format.

Personally, I think that India certainly has a lot to be proud of of its amazing space program (I am a fan of ISRO) but edits like that (as proud and well-meaning as can be) lack actual information and objectivity, and therefore do a disservice to this encyclopedia, where we strive to be objective, neutral, and precise. Do not be discouraged to contribute, but first think if what you write is correct (WP:Verifiable) and WP:neutral. Thank you, Rowan Forest (talk) 15:15, 19 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

February 2020 edit

  Hello, I'm Kautilya3. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so.

May 2021 edit

  Hello, I'm Run n Fly. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to BBV152 have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse. As per reference ICMR and Government of India have the rights that is shared by Bharat Biotech as a collaborator. Run n Fly (talk) 16:40, 12 May 2021 (UTC)Reply


All the reference articles says about Bharat Biotech and not ICMR. Bharat Biotech has the rights, ICMR only gets 5% royalty payment. It is not just about the virus, but production process too. Covaxin requires negative pressure labs with Bio Safety Level III. Only Bharat Biotech has such facilities. None of your references shows ICMR has complete rights. All negotiations for Covaxin happening between Bharat Biotech and Public sector companies.
Ref - https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/no-funds-granted-for-vaccine-research-development-govt-101620675320843.html
Its not about royalty. Its about Intellectual Property (IP) rights which is held by both Bharat Biotech and Government of India through ICMR.Run n Fly (talk) 08:45, 13 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse. Wikipedia is not a newspaper per WP:NOTNEWS and is for worldwide audience not limited to India. Also, please use WP:CITE to add references in Wikipedia next time. Run n Fly (talk) 08:41, 13 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

You are spreading Fake News without reference saying "Haffkine Institute" has signed Technology Transfer agreement with ICMR. "Haffkine Institute" as of now not signed agreement with anyone. But, News report attached as reference says "Haffkine Institute" will sign MOU with Bharat Biotech in next 15 days. No company has signed any agreement with ICMR. It is only with "Bharat Biotech". Many companies have IP & Royalty payment in Covaxiin like ViroVax for adjuvant. That doesn't mean Virovax has IP of the Covaxin.

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Covaxin. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. as per WP:NOTNEWS and the map template already contains the details. Also do not use Twitter as references untill its quoted in a WP:RS Run n Fly (talk) 09:56, 26 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

 This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Due to past disruption in this topic area, the community has enacted a more stringent set of rules. Any administrator may impose sanctions—such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks—on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on these sanctions. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
