Stop icon

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Merinsan, articles at Misplaced Pages must comply with Misplaced Pages's neutral point of view policy - and in particular, avoid undue weight and unencyclopedic content, cite reliable sources in compliance with Misplaced Pages's reliable sources policy, and must not synthesise what is actually stated in the sources. Your recent edits at Spoorthi have failed to comply with these requirements. Please discuss your proposed edits at the talk page until a consensus is reached in relation to them there. If you continue to edit war on the article prior to a consensus being reached, your editing privileges may be revoked. Ncmvocalist (talk) 12:36, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

Information icon Please remember to assume good faith when dealing with other editors. Thank you. Ncmvocalist (talk) 12:50, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

Please stop adding unreferenced or poorly referenced biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Misplaced Pages page. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Misplaced Pages policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. Ncmvocalist (talk) 13:28, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

You may provide specifics on what are unreferenced and what are poorly sourced. But removing the whole thing and bulk of the article, without giving specifics is excessive. Merinsan (talk) 13:41, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

The way you are removing bulk content from the article without giving specific justification amounts to vandalism. You are removing properly given references without justification. The same references have already been reviewed by many users and accepted as 'properly sourced'. The same references have also been accepted as 'properly sourced' on other related articles such as Airtel Super Singer Junior and Diwakar. How come you find the same references and same type of references as 'poorly sourced' in this particular article?. It looks like you are the one engaging in continued edit-warring or personal attacks. Merinsan (talk) 13:53, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Information icon Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring. The thread is Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:Merinsan reported by User:Ncmvocalist (Result: ). Thank you. Ncmvocalist (talk) 15:09, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

Nomination of Spoorthi for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Spoorthi is suitable for inclusion in Misplaced Pages according to Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Spoorthi until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Abecedare (talk) 09:55, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

The subject in this article won the reality show last month after being in the competition for almost a year. The show started one year ago and broadcast on a daily basis at prime time for a full one hour on a popular Tamil TV channel STAR Vijay. Star Vijay channel is part of 21st Century Fox's STAR India network. This TV channel is available all over the world. This show is very popular among Indians and Srilankans living around the world, in India, Srilanka, USA, Canada, Europe, Malaysia, Singapore, Australia and many other parts of the world. The subject of this article came through the show unscathed of all eliminations week after week and topped hundreds of participants from around the world starting from the auditions one year ago. It also must be noted that the final winner of the competition is chosen based scores given by eminent personalities (close to 30 in numbers) who personally sat through the 'grand finale' at the judges panel. Also 50% weightage of the scores was taken from public voting. Public from around the world enthusiastically participated in public voting which was done through a dedicated online website as well as local SMS votes from within India. This show during the course of its run over a year also featured personalities from Indian music and film industry, such as A.R.Rahman, S.P.Balasubramanyam, Dhanush among others as special guests and special judges. Winning the title of this show is a dream for many aspiring singers as many previous winners such as Diwakar, Alka Ajith as well as many other participants have went on to make a foothold in the field of Indian playback singing for Indian film industry. Therefore, winning the title of this contest by the subject of the article cannot be considered as a minor feat. The grand finale and the title winner was substantially covered in mainline newspapers in India, references of which are given in the article. Previous winners of this show also have articles created and published in Misplaced Pages, eg. Diwakar, Alka Ajith. Therefore the request for the deletion of this article should not be granted.

Stop icon This is your only warning; if you use Misplaced Pages for soapboxing, promotion or advertising again, as you did at Spoorthi, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Ncmvocalist (talk) 15:20, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Ncmvocalist (talk) 15:26, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

While there is a discussion going on, you are continuing your earlier edit war by removing material and valid sources. I am only restoring valid sources and material you are removing without justification Merinsan (talk) 16:23, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Mentorship offer

Merinsan, I see you have gotten off to a rough start here and would like to help. Often times Misplaced Pages can be an intimidating place for newcomers for a variety of reasons. For example, we have a problem with people creating accounts to promote themselves and/or their businesses and have to act decisively. Unfortunately, good faith users such as yourself are often viewed as suspect as a result.

When you then made mistakes because of inexperience, things got out of hand quickly. If you are interested, I would be willing to mentor you going forward. I would only ask that you agree not to make any further reverts on Spoorthi (which you can't edit at the moment anyway) or related articles without my input. Let me know if you agree, ThaddeusB (talk) 18:47, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

ThaddeusB, it is very kind of you to have understood my problems I have been facing and I am really grateful to your offer to mentor me going forward. I appreciate your suggestion and I agree I will not make any further reverts without your input. Thank you once again. Merinsan (talk) 18:58, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
