February 2012
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Kayastha. When removing content, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kayastha&action=history page history]. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please be aware of Wikipedia's policy that biographical information about living persons must not include unsupported or inaccurate statements. Whenever you add possibly controversial statements about a living person to an article or any other Wikipedia page, as you did to Kayastha, you must include proper sources. If you don't know how to cite a source, you may want to read Referencing for beginners for guidelines. Thank you. Sitush (talk) 09:21, 20 February 2012 (UTC)


 * I've reverted that addition to Kayastha as well. I saw your edit summary, and so I did check the articles. First, half of them don't even mention "Kayastha" at all. Second, the ones that do don't have a reliable source to verify that the people are Kayastha. So they can't be added to any list of "notable Kayastha". Finally, if you do find someone whose article contains verification that the person is a Kayastha, it must be added to List of Kaysatha, not the main Kayastha article. I hope this explains the problem. If not, please feel free to ask any questions you have. Qwyrxian (talk) 12:34, 20 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Please stop reverting people at Kayastha. You cannot take as gospel statements made in other articles here. You need to check the sources and, when I did so, they were mostly "fake" references. In some instances, such as Amitabh Bachchan, the linked articles did not even mention the alleged Kayastha status. That is no surprise in Bachchan's case, since he has specifically rejected being a member of any caste. - Sitush (talk) 12:36, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Edit warring
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:43, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
 * It has been explained to you why your additions have been disputed, and if you disagree you must now start a discussion on the article Talk page and try to get a consensus supporting your addition - if you continue to edit-war, you will be blocked from editing -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:44, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Also, please be aware of the following... -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:47, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Blocked
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for this edit - you must not reinstate unsourced claims relating to castes, as these articles are under sanctions. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:25, 20 February 2012 (UTC) Please see the discussion at Wikipedia talk:INB, and please note the consensus (in line with the requirements of Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons policies) that a person's caste should only be included in an article if there is a reliable source to confirm it. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:35, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, and if once unblocked you again accuse other editors of vandalism, when they are acting in line with Wikipedia's policies and in line with consensus, and have properly explained their actions, you should expect to be re-blocked for longer -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:40, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
