rajput page talk

Recent statement of Sajaypal007 is a violation of policy.In the section of Rajput talk page called Regarding repetition of same line..i had explained the same thing again reiterated by him.This is WP:STONEWALL .Heba Aisha (talk) 00:17, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

Heba Aisha, I am 100% in agreement with you. I remember seeing your response to this issue earlier. His intent is now very clear. LukeEmily (talk) 07:44, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

There are various similar policies which explains his present behaviour as for example WP:LISTEN.since talk page of article is only for discussion related to improvement in article i m discussing this serious issue with u here.Heba Aisha (talk) 09:13, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

The text of the WP:LISTEN says that: Sometimes, editors perpetuate disputes by sticking to an allegation or viewpoint long after the consensus of the community has decided that moving on to other topics would be more productive. Such behavior is disruptive to Misplaced Pages.Believing that you have a valid point does not confer upon you the right to act as though your point must be accepted by the community when you have been told that it is not accepted. The community's rejection of your idea is not proof that they have failed to hear you..This is clearly the present case....of Sajaypal on Rajput talk page.In case of origin image also the community concensus was in favour of keeping image was ultimately not agreed to by him.I don't know why Kautilya3 who is aware of this policy is not closing previous thread on which concensus is built ex.~origin image case.Heba Aisha (talk) 09:19, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

I request Kautilya3 to take note of this policy called WP:ICANTHEARYOU and close the thread of Origin image as clearly the community concensus is in favour of keeping the image except Sajaypal whose case can be explained properly by WP:ICANTHEARYOU.I m not tagging Sajaypal coz. in past he saw it as Wikibullying and i don't want to violate the policies.Heba Aisha (talk) 09:28, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

When a moderated discussion takes place, people will naturally re-raise the issues that couldn't get settled in the previous discussion. There is nothing wrong with that.

The reason the discussion takes long is that almost all of you are newish users, who are yet to gain expertise on how to narrow differences and arrive at consensus quickly. Many of you are also using mobile devices which have limited capabilities and promote a "social media" style of interaction, which is not productive for Misplaced Pages content debates.

I am not here to enforce policies on conduct. But if egregious misconduct occurs, I will be happy to report to the admins. So far the only misconduct that is occurring is that of mutual recriminations flying about in the midst of content discussion. So please refrain from doing that. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 09:55, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

I m extremely sorry Kautilya3 if you find my request offensive.I m just trying to bring it to u that same things are repeated again and again and we have already explained those stuffs earlier.Also recriminations as you mentioned is not Persistent since the talk begun, from my side i tried a lot to help Sajaypal007 in other articles by correcting citation, placing it in proper format as for example in Lakha Singh and i also recognised his edits in Battle of Maonda and Mandholi from where the dispute started.Heba Aisha (talk) 10:42, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi

Hope u are fine....you were not here for a long time.?? Heba Aisha (talk) 15:00, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi Heba Aisha, Hope you are doing well. I am fine. LukeEmily (talk) 20:04, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Vairagya Shatakam of Bhartrhari moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Vairagya Shatakam of Bhartrhari, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Misplaced Pages). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Misplaced Pages's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Loksmythe (talk) 13:19, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

I will. Thank you Loksmythe. LukeEmily (talk) 13:56, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Do you have enough content to not keep this article a stub forever??Heba Aisha (talk) 14:53, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi Heba Aisha, yes, I have the book and the translation. I was thinking of putting a one line summary for each verse.What is stub vs article?LukeEmily (talk) 17:43, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

stub i think are those article which are started by someone but they fail to write more due to various reasons.And it appears like just one or two para definition of the topic.See i have also created 3 new article but they are expanded and i will expand further.Heba Aisha (talk) 00:54, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

Editing the archive

Hello LukeEmily. Nobody is likely to notice your edit to the archive, complaining about bad edits by User:Jaggi9988. ("User:Jaggi9988 keeps adding unsourced material despite requesting him not to do so on Maratha and Maratha caste related pages"). It would be better for you to notify User:Ymblanter directly of your concerns. He is the admin who responded to the ANI originally on 31 August. EdJohnston (talk) 17:27, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Thanks EdJohnston and User:Ymblanter LukeEmily (talk) 19:05, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

No problem, pls let me know if they continue after the block has expired--Ymblanter (talk) 19:07, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Unreliable sources

Hi Aydin Aghdashloo page has a source that has been removed from a beta gram Also there are several updates that are missing from him page including his recent works, many letters of support that he has received from his students,... How can the page be unlocked so can be edited accordingly? Thank you! Mahshidboz (talk) 14:23, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi Mahshidboz, I do not know anything about Aydin Aghdashloo. I think you need to propose your changes on the talk page of that article - please see Misplaced Pages:Protection_policy#extended. Also, you may want to discuss with User:GeneralNotability Thanks, LukeEmily (talk) 15:22, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi help

National Action Plan on Climate Change (India) I created it with caution complying with policies like WP:POV and source used are third party independent sources. But a user tagged it as promotional. It is not actually as no external commercial website etc are used and target statements are confused as promotional by him. Plz seeking ur feed back on articles talk page where i m contesting against speedy deletion. The user nominated it due to his confusion with the subject. Heba Aisha (talk) 09:45, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi Heba Aisha, I agree with you. It is not WP:POV. I went through the sources and they look neutral. I have expressed my opinion on the talk page. LukeEmily (talk) 10:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

Thanks, actually the user who put that tag seems to have less idea about the subject though i explained on his talk page but he took it in a different way.

Plz see Violence against animals in India delition pageHeba Aisha (talk) 17:04, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi Heba Aisha, someone has changed it to redirect to another page. You can add you content there in some section. If the content becomes too big , it may be eligible for a new page. LukeEmily (talk) 09:17, 28 September 2020 (UTC)

Regarding Rajput page: I have found the high quality sources from Cambridge in support of Ferishta's statement and an another comprehensive source too. If first line is removed i would like to put it as then as per first line we should put all the theories which are debating for origin.Heba Aisha (talk) 10:39, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

I agree that the first line should summarize that big section. If you have a source for Ferishta's statement, then it can be added especially if it is academic. Misplaced Pages should give all sides of the academic opinion. LukeEmily (talk) 10:48, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

for the more elaborate discussion in future on the page.I would suggest you to read wiki article on Ravana Rajput...they are illegitimate progeny of the Darogis who were concubines of Rajput Rajas and they constitute 7% of Rajasthan population.Also the Rajput lifestyle section itself mention that they used to keep concubines whose sons were styled as Rajputs and there is a source too.The Cambridge source is high quality and i will put it when we will take final Descision regarding removal. Also the issue of Anandpal Singh encounter in Rajasthan is hotly debated in north india and is related to the subject.Heba Aisha (talk) 10:52, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

Please be civil while on the forum: i have requested rfc on talk page of Rajput. You are advised not to reply on personal recriminations by other user and stick to content related comments.tqHeba Aisha (talk) 14:56, 26 September 2020 (UTC)

Some rules of WP:Rfc

This is a list of rules i found interesting.

• An RfC should last until enough comment has been received that consensus is reached, or until it is apparent it won't be.

There is no required minimum or maximum duration; however, Legobot assumes an RfC has been forgotten and automatically ends it (removes the rfc template) 30 days after it begins, to avoid a buildup of stale discussions cluttering the lists and wasting commenters' time.

• RfCs are a way to attract more attention to a discussion about making changes to pages or procedures, including articles, essays, guidelines, policies, and many other kinds of pages. It uses a system of centralized noticeboards and random, bot-delivered invitations to advertise discussions to uninvolved editors. The normal talk page guidelines apply to these discussions.

• Try not to be confrontational. Be friendly and civil, and assume good faith of other editors' actions.

• Edits to content under RfC discussion may be particularly controversial. Avoid making edits that others may view as unhelpful. Editing after others have raised objections may be viewed as disruptive editing or edit warring. Be patient; make your improvements in accord with consensus after the RfC is resolved.
• Like other discussions, RfCs sometimes end without an agreement or clear resolution. Please remove the

  Please consider joining the feedback request service. An editor has requested comments from other editors for this discussion.

  tag when the dispute has been resolved, or when discussion has ended.

  Anyone who wants an uninvolved editor to write a closing summary of the discussion (ideally with a determination of consensus) can formally request closure by posting at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Requests for closure.
