Misplaced Pages

August 2013

Hello, I'm NeilN. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, Rahul Gandhi, but that you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Misplaced Pages has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. You need to use news reports, not opinion pieces.

Adding {{fact}}

First of all, Welcome to Misplaced Pages! I noticed you added {{fact}} in the Subhash Chandra Bose article, even though it was cited in two sources.(example:1) I recommend you read about citing sources and citation needed tag. The following links will also be helpful:

• Introduction
• The five pillars of Misplaced Pages
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• How to write a great article

It is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, reduces edit conflicts, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that will automatically produce your username and the date. Hope you enjoy and stay for long here, Ugog Nizdast (talk) 09:33, 15 August 2013 (UTC)

Partition of India

The source I cited (in fact which you inserted) uses the word Anxious for India, for which I have used eagerness, which has more positive meaning than the former. You better read the sources cited fully before doing any further edits (and also please revert your last edit on this article). Secondly I must make you aware that the article you are editing falls in the contentious topic area, which is under ARBCOM allowed Discretionary sanctions, so making any pov edits (not adhering to WP:NPOV) or souce falsification in this topic area can get you sanctioned. Happy editing! --SMS 17:26, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

Notification

The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose discretionary sanctions (information on which is at Misplaced Pages:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions) on any editor who is active on pages broadly related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Discretionary sanctions can be used against an editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Misplaced Pages, satisfy any standard of behavior, or follow any normal editorial process. If you continue to misconduct yourself on pages relating to this topic, you may be placed under sanctions, which can include blocks, a revert limitation, or an article ban. The Committee's full decision can be read at the "Final decision" section of the decision page. Please familiarise yourself with the information page at Misplaced Pages:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions, with the appropriate sections of Misplaced Pages:Arbitration Committee/Procedures, and with the case decision page before making any further edits to the pages in question. This is a non administrator notification, and will be logged as such on the case decision, pursuant to the conditions of the Arbitration Committee's discretionary sanctions system.

Edits on the Thackerays

Hi, I've come here to discuss it and hopefully end this. The content which which you keep adding grossly violates our NPOV and our BLP policies, adding citations in it does NOT help here. If you ever want this content to ever be added, please discuss it on the article's talk page. Putting it again and again in the article, causes a nuisance to every editor involved. Your content can be framed in a more neutral manner and stick to just the facts rather than reflecting the source's opinion. For more help, you can discuss it on the talk page and get everyone's agreement. Please don't quickly add it again so fast (Please see the WP:3RR, WP:BRD and WP:BLOCK). Sincerely, Ugog Nizdast (talk) 07:51, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

Would you rather suppress the history written by Prabodhankar Thackeray? What do you mean by "more neurtral"? Don't you know that all the Thackerays only do the politics of hatred, violence and xenophobia? Are you not aware that Bal Thackeray was disenfranchised for this by the Supreme Court? --Pee3.14159 (talk) 22:00, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

Do what you please, if no other editor participates or neutrally words your statements after some time, if I feel like, I'll do the job. I remind you that this is a collaborative editing environment where discussion is encouraged and edit warring is extremely frowned upon. Also once here, it is advised that we leave all your views, prejudices, and beliefs at the door. I'm telling you this since I want you to edit here successfully and hope things don't get ugly for you in the future and for others. Sincerely, Ugog Nizdast (talk) 15:33, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
