I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Hi Abbasquadir! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor&#32;at Mir Osman Ali Khan that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Mir Osman Ali Khan. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges. Thank you.

Premature archiving
Hi Abbasquadir, there is generally no need to prematurely archive discussions (e.g. with OneClickArchiver), since many talk pages implement automated archiving. If a talk page does not have automatic archiving, it would generally be better to set up automatic archiving instead of archiving discussions manually. When automatic archiving is in place, it is rarely necessary to manually archive discussions, since the archive bot will handle the discussions in a consistent manner without editor intervention.

Recently, I noticed that you manually archived two discussions that I created:
 * 1)  – This discussion is an active request for comment (RfC). Manually archiving active RfCs is generally inappropriate, since the purpose of RfCs is to solicit comments from a broad section of the community. This particular RfC was put in place to resolve a content dispute that was motivated by an off-wiki campaign, a problem that deserves attention from more editors. It would be best to let the RfC run its standard 30-day duration, and even after that, there would be no reason to manually archive it, as the talk page already has automatic archiving.
 * 2)  – This is a notification of an ongoing noticeboard discussion about the reliability of The Hindu, India's newspaper of record. The discussion is extremely relevant to WikiProject India, as it affects a large number of articles covered under the WikiProject. There is no reason to manually archive this notification while the discussion is still active.

Thanks. —  Newslinger  talk   19:34, 5 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Yes, I did have my doubts regarding the same. So far, I have archived only those which are 5-10 yrs old/do not serve purpose/discussion closed on the particular topic. Going forward, will also use auto-archive. Thank you for clarifying me on the same. Abbasquadir (talk) 12:30, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard
There is a discussion at the Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard which involves you. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:39, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Abbasquadir, just to let you know: The discretionary sanctions measures that informed you of apply not only in the Pakistan-India topic area but also to Biographies of Living Persons and to articles on the recently deceased.  The allegations contained in Jiah Khan's suicide note almost certainly violate the BLP policy. The sanctions that can be applied by any uninvolved admin for violating these policies after you have been notified include topic bans and blocks, among others.  I strongly suggest you read that policy thoroughly as well as the Core Content Policies before making any further edits to that article. It would do no-one any good for you to inadvertently trigger these sanctions. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 19:17, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
