Use of minor edit flag

Can you be more careful with the use of the minor edit flag please? This definitely wasn't a minor edit. Thanks, --John (talk) 21:15, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi! John, I made 3 changes ( 2 yesterday and 1 today). Only today's change, which changes the word 'community' to more accurate 'caste' is flagged as minor edit. Now i understood that minor edit tag should be used only if current version was lasted edited by another use. Thanks, --Unbiasedpov

Oops, this was the diff I meant to send. I still don't think you should mark such edits as minor. --John (talk) 21:30, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Canvassing

These talk page posts 1, 2, 3 soliciting comment are considered instances of canvassing, because those editors were uninvolved in the discussion that you are asking them to comment on. If you didn't know about this guideline, that's okay, but please keep it in mind in the future. Vanamonde93 (talk) 15:56, 24 August 2015 (UTC)

How to act on talkpages

In this edit you remove one of your own unsigned comments, and my answer to it. That is not allowed. You cannot remove other editors statements, or significantly edit your own statements once they have been answered by others. Please take the time to acquaint yourself with the guidelines for behavior on discussion pages.·maunus · snunɐɯ· 06:18, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

That was a sub-section i started but similar issue was already being addressed in another sub-section. Another user got upset that similar discussions are running on multiple subsections. Feel free to put entire sub-section back to it's original place. Unbiasedpov (talk) 13:31, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

2002 Gujarat riots

Unbiasedpov, you seem to be involved in a slow edit-war at the 2002 Gujarat riots over the past few weeks. And while you have posted numerous times on the article talk-page, frankly the sheer quantity, length, and throw-everything-at-the-wall-and-see-what-sticks approach of your posts makes it difficult to judge if any of your individual proposals have merit. Your current approach is unlikely to succeed, is surely frustrating for you and your interlocutors, and is getting disruptive. You have already been informed of the discretionary sanctions applicable in this area, and unless your editing approach changes, you are likely to get topic-banned from this area. So instead I'd suggest that you to desist from editing the article at the moment, and focus on a single, clear and concrete proposal and see if you can establish consensus for that change.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to 2002 Gujarat riots, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. You cannot use your opinions for deleting reliably sourced information. 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. Kautilya3 (talk) 13:36, 16 September 2015 (UTC)

Notice that you are now subject to an arbitration enforcement sanction

The following sanction now applies to you:

You are topic banned from 2002 Gujarat riots related articles, talk-pages and discussions anywhere on wikipedia.

You have been sanctioned because of continued disruptive and POV editing, slow but persistent edit-warring, and being unresponsive to feedback despite numerous warnings. In particular, despite earlier advice on how to discuss the issues constructively, you again repeatedly made multiple broad and overlapping proposals [1], [2] (which inevitably failed to find consensus) in parallel fora; changed the proposals even after others had responded; and edit-warred on the article page without finding consensus and in face of objections [3], [4]. Your conduct and repetitive arguments are disruptive, consuming an inordinate amount of other editors' time (on either side of the issues), and frankly preventing progress from being made (eg, this section) on a topic that requires more sober, neutral and collaborative editing.

This sanction is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/India-Pakistan#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. If the sanction includes a ban, please read the banning policy to ensure you understand what this means. If you do not comply with this sanction, you may be blocked for an extended period, by way of enforcement of this sanction—and you may also be made subject to further sanctions.

You may appeal this sanction using the process described here. I recommend that you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template if you wish to submit an appeal to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard. You may also appeal directly to me (on my talk page), before or instead of appealing to the noticeboard. Even if you appeal this sanction, you remain bound by it until you are notified by an uninvolved administrator that the appeal has been successful. You are also free to contact me on my talk page if anything of the above is unclear to you. Abecedare (talk) 14:58, 16 September 2015 (UTC)

May 2016

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

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. BilCat (talk) 19:01, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

Dabgarward massacre
