  Your recent edit to Indian Institute of Technology Patna appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person or organization added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.

  Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Indira Gandhi. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Thomas.W talk 21:48, 31 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Try to be unbiased on Wikipedia,Government of India never recognised any trekkers/authors map on Siachen officially

edit

some trekkers and authors viewpoint and their maps was never official position of Government of India and neither it recognised them--Koodfaand (talk) 10:24, 4 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

No one cares if India does or does not accept what is published in independent sources. Just like no one cares whether Pakistan accepts the Indian or others POV on Siachen. The issue here is of how secondary published sources viewed Siachen area. Seriously, you cannot just edit out the nationality of authors just because you dont like it.PakSol (talk) 11:57, 4 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at Siachen Glacier. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you.

  Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Siachen Glacier, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Siachen glacier. 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 that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  2. 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. Kautilya3 (talk) 19:24, 18 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Great Grand Masti - Shiney

edit

Hi there, re: these edits, there's simply not enough information here to warrant inclusion.

"Shiney Ahuja sent a legal notice to the makers of Great Grand Masti for naming a maid 'Shiney' in the film."

When you add content like this, you should consider the Five Ws: Who, What, When, Where, Why. While we know a little about the who and what, we're still missing key pieces of information.

  • Who is Shiney Ahuja? Oh, an actor?
  • What is the implication of a legal notice? Oh, they're accusing the filmmakers of criminal contempt?
  • When did this happen? Oh, on 15 July?
  • Why was the legal notice sent? Oh, because the legal team thinks it's a reference to Ahuja's conviction of raping a maid? Ah. Now things start to make sense.

We can't expect that the entire world is going to know anything about the Shiney Ahuja case, so we need to be clear. By contrast, see this version:

"On 15 July 2016, actor Shiney Ahuja sent a legal notice to the film's producers accusing them of criminal contempt for naming a maid Shiney in the film. A member of Ahuja's legal representation alleged that this was a reference to Ahuja's 2011 conviction for raping a maid in his employ.

Context is very important for conveying the importance of information. Without context, it comes across as a random sentence that should probably be deleted. It would be appreciated if you'd please keep this in mind in the future. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 08:16, 17 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics.

Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.
