Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia

• Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
• Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
• Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
• No edit warring or sock puppetry.
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
• Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Just to say I don't think you deliberately replaced copyvio, but please don't do it again. Doug Weller talk 10:31, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

And not that I think you would, but others might including more socks, so I've reversion/deleted it was we often do with copyvio. That means it is still there but can only be viewed by Administrators. If you want this done in the future just ask as I see you've removed some copyvio in the past.

Thank you for correcting my error. I also do not like copyright violations inside article. Prashantbhukamp (talk) 05:16, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

India Against Corruption

There has been a prolonged campaign to significantly change the India Against Corruption article. This has gone on both on- and off-Wikipedia, has involved the Wikimedia Foundation legal team and has been documented to some extent at WP:LTA/IAC. Making the type of changes that you made at that article recently, and tag-bombing like this, are not helpful. The article has come under intense scrutiny from a wide range of the Wikipedia community, not merely those with an interest in India, in politics or in corruption.

I'm not saying that the article cannot be improved but you really should consider raising your points on the talk page rather than edit warring about it. We have something called the bold, revert, discuss cycle and it is usually a good idea to follow it.

It is also a good idea to understand WP:LEAD, which sets out best practice for the introductory paragraphs of an article. Among those recommendations is that citations are not used in the lead section. The section should summarise the article and therefore anything in it should appear in the main body of the article, where it can and should be cited.

Hope this helps explain what is going on, but one last point: your name sounds familiar to me through my long dealings with people involved with the IAC pressure group (not the IAC/Team Anna movement). If you do indeed have connection to Sarbajit Roy's group then, in particular given the history here, it would be advisable to confine yourself to the article talk page.
