Hello, Mossad3, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like this place and decide to stay.

Why can't I edit some particular pages?
Some pages that have been vandalized repeatedly are semi-protected, meaning that editing by new or unregistered users is prohibited through technical measures. If you have an account that is four days old and has made at least 10 edits, then you can bypass semi-protection and edit any semi-protected page. Some pages, such as highly visible templates, are fully-protected, meaning that only administrators can edit them. If this is not the case, you may have been blocked or your IP address caught up in a range block.
Where can I experiment with editing Wikipedia?
Use the main sandbox or create your own personal sandbox to experiment.
How do I create an article?
See how to create your first article, then use the Article Wizard to create one, and add references to the article as explained below.
How do I create citations?
  1. Do a search on Google or your preferred search engine for the subject of the Wikipedia article that you want to create a citation for.
  2. Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
  3. In a new tab/window, go to the citation generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out as many fields as you can about the website you just found.
  4. Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
  5. Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text (it will be something like <ref> {{cite web | .... }}</ref>, copy the whole thing).
  6. In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
  7. If the article does not have a References or Notes section (or the like), add this to the bottom of the page, but above the External Links section and the categories:
==References==
{{Reflist}}
What is a WikiProject, and how do I join one?
A WikiProject is a group of editors that are interested in improving the coverage of certain topics on Wikipedia. (See this page for a complete list of WikiProjects.) If you would like to help, add your username to the list that is on the bottom of the WikiProject page.

Important Notice[edit]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

I am afraid you need to know what is a "contentious issue", which needs a normal and proper discussion, and refrain from making WP:edit requests for them. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 11:59, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

RfC[edit]

I reverted your edit at Wikipedia talk:Requests for comment because the talk page is not the place for you to ask us to create requests for you. Please follow the directions at WP:RFCOPEN. Chris Troutman (talk) 16:56, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Framing a RfC[edit]

I have reframed two of your RfC posers at Talk:Nupur Sharma (politician) and Talk:2022 Muhammad remarks controversy per WP:RFCBRIEF. Now, reframe your question and relaunch the RfC at Talk:The Kashmir Files. Thanks, TrangaBellam (talk) 05:12, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I have done my best but please let me know how to further improve the RfC at Talk:The Kashmir Files if it needs improvement.-Mossad3 (talk) 06:01, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I should also note that you have completely ignored WP:RFCBEFORE when you read the instructions. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 11:17, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

When to withdraw RfC[edit]

WP:RFCEND 1 says ".. The question may be withdrawn by the poster (e.g., if the community's response became obvious very quickly). In this situation, the editor who started the RfC should normally be the person who removes the {{rfc}} template. .."


At times withdrawing RfC and conducting more research and more discussion before concluding RfCs can be a smarter choice than loosing RfC in haste which anyways does not benefit your own cause. From my experience for newcomers it is better to observe how discussions and RfCs work then participate in RfCs and there after create RfCs.

response[edit]

I didn't think I was supposed to say anything. I would agree restoring the RfC was correct after you reworded it. my response to Kautilya3 about it being bureaucratic still stands, and I would additionally point out that his comments on RfC before also seem incorrect. the issue was already discussed at no resolution was reached in a previous section, and an RfC was appropriate at that point. nothing prevents new editors from raising new arguments during the RfC, I'm not sure where Kautilya3 is getting that from. regards, TryKid [dubious – discuss] 15:17, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm ambivalent on the issue, seemed like a cosmetic change mostly. the arguments against inclusion aren't convincing though, I might !vote later. TryKid [dubious – discuss] 15:36, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Also, you're free to ask for any explanation of my actions or inaction. No need to hesitate. On the !vote question specifically, since I was already on the page, asking for a formal support or oppose shouldn't count as canvassing I think. regards, TryKid [dubious – discuss] 15:39, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Child marriage in Pakistan[edit]

If I see any more edits of such dubious quality, you will be explaining yourself at WP:AE. TrangaBellam (talk) 17:22, 8 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Mossad3 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I have been accused of inappropriately using alternative accounts which is untrue. Please unblock me.-Mossad3 (talk) 02:24, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You are blocked as a sockpuppet, not for using alternate accounts. Having reviewed your editing, I can clearly say that the behavioral evidence confirms the CU block. I'm revoking talk page access now, unblock appeals have to come from your main account. —SpacemanSpiff 05:27, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
