Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 16:42, 14 February 2017

Jairaj991, you are invited to the Teahouse!

Using Misplaced Pages as a reference

In the Misplaced Pages encyclopedia, Misplaced Pages itself is not an acceptable source. Do not use articles from Misplaced Pages as sources. See WP:RS to read what constitutes a Reliable Source. - Gilliam (talk) 11:52, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

July 2014

Hello, I'm Petrb. I wanted to let you know that I undid one of your recent contributions, such as the one you made with this edit to Punjabi Rajputs, because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Petrb (talk) 15:18, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. A page you recently created, Banna baisa, may not conform to some of Misplaced Pages's guidelines for new pages, so it will be removed shortly (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests, and consider using the Article Wizard. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Your first article. You may also want to read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you.Template:Z43 See Misplaced Pages is not a dictionary. NawlinWiki (talk) 15:54, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

Mertiya

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Mertiya, and it appears to be very similar to another Misplaced Pages page: Mertiya/Mertia Rathore. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Misplaced Pages:Copying within Misplaced Pages and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 10:26, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

Darbari Jats

I have just had to redirect Darbari Jats to Jat people. You were warned previously about copying stuff from other Misplaced Pages articles without explanation and also about using such articles as sources. Neither of these are acceptable practices here. In addition, sources from the British Raj era are almost always considered not to be reliable. I'm sorry about this as I realise that you mean well. If there is something that you do not understand in the previous warnings then please drop me a note at User talk:Sitush. Thanks. - Sitush (talk) 10:27, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

You need to discuss your proposed changes and get consensus. You've never used a talk page. --NeilN 11:10, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

August 2014

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Darbari Jats. Your edits have been reverted or removed.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Misplaced Pages'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, seek assistance at Misplaced Pages's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. NeilN 15:44, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Darbari Jats shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. 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. NeilN 16:17, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Stop

You need to stop creating new articles by copying and pasting from other articles. Also, as you've been advised before, Misplaced Pages articles cannot act as references. Please see WP:CIRCULAR. --NeilN 16:24, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Rajput Warrior

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Rajput Warrior, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.internationalrajputassociation.com/History.php.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Misplaced Pages:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 07:56, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

Sanctions

You are continuing to add to and create articles about castes using the most appalling sources, such as those that cite other Misplaced Pages articles, those that cite publications by General Books LLC (who just get their info from us) and those that are known to be unreliable caste-affiliated/glorifying websites. You've been warned about this on a few occasions now and we do not seem to be making any progress. Is there something that you do not understand? It would be far better to discuss the problems rather than ignore them.

Please note that the articles that you are contributing to are generally subject to particular sanctions, as detailed in the box below. You need to take some care. Thanks. - Sitush (talk) 15:44, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

The Misplaced Pages community has permitted administrators to impose discretionary sanctions on any editor who is active on any page about social groups, explicitly including caste associations and political parties, related to India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal. Discretionary sanctions can be used against an editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Misplaced Pages, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process. If you engage in further inappropriate behavior in this area, you may be placed under sanctions, which can include blocks, a revert limitation, or an article ban. The discussion leading to the imposition of these sanctions can be read here. Please familiarise yourself with the information page at Misplaced Pages:General sanctions/South Asian social groups.

September 2014

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you create an inappropriate page, as you did at Rajput warrior. Template:Z46 NeilN 12:33, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for September 18

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Karadiya Rajputs, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page OBC. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Image without license

Unspecified source/license for File:Rajnigandha.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Rajnigandha.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Misplaced Pages's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Misplaced Pages can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Misplaced Pages:Image use policy
• Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by MifterBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Misplaced Pages:Media copyright questions. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. --MifterBot 10:45, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Contributions

You have already had a notice about the sanctions that apply for caste-related articles but you are persisting in adding poorly sourced, poorly phrased trivia. I'm happy to help you improve your efforts here but right now it looks as if you do not want to collaborate: you are not even responding to comments on this page. - Sitush (talk) 13:03, 8 November 2014 (UTC)

February 2015

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Tomara clan. This contravenes Misplaced Pages's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. NeilN 13:19, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Rawat Singh Mertiya

The article Rawat Singh Mertiya has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No acceptable sources provided

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. NeilN 14:53, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 23

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Om Banna, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Banna (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Nomination of Oldest Dynasty Of World for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Oldest Dynasty Of World 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/Oldest Dynasty Of World 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. Shrikanthv (talk) 11:58, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Rajput Princely States

The article Rajput Princely States has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No acceptable sources provided.

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

March 2015

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Misplaced Pages, as you did at Rajnigandha Shekhawat. Stop using Misplaced Pages articles as sources NeilN 14:19, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

You are still adding unsourced information, most recently with this edit at Rathore. You have had many warnings and even a notification of the discretionary sanctions that are enforceable for articles such as that. What is it that you do not understand? I and others have noticed also that you seem unwilling to even discuss your contributions, which is not helping matters at all given the intended collaborative nature of the Misplaced Pages project. - Sitush (talk) 11:33, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

discretionary sanctions imposed

Notice that you are now subject to an arbitration enforcement sanction

The following sanction now applies to you:

Topic banned from anything related to India (including, but not limited to history, castes, social and ethnic groups) across all name spaces in the English Misplaced Pages

You have been sanctioned Repeated disruptive editing despite multiple warnings.

This sanction is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/India-Pakistan#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Misplaced Pages: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. —SpacemanSpiff 10:59, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

—SpacemanSpiff 10:59, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

This edit is a violation of your topic ban. Please note that any further violations will result in escalating blocks. —SpacemanSpiff 11:11, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

And you have just broken your topic ban again at Rajput, and done so in some style by removing masses of material and adding a small amount of new stuff that is poorly sourced, mis-cited and poorly phrased. - Sitush (talk) 14:23, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the ] or ]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page. Bishonen | talk 16:41, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" ). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."
