Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Shirish Kunder, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Diff:  Cyphoidbomb (talk) 06:13, 4 December 2018 (UTC)

Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Shirish Kunder. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. ''Diffs: Your edits here added a great deal of unsubstantiated puffery to the article, and in some cases, you ignored existing references like this, which indicates that Tees Maar Khan performed poorly, which is the opposite of what you claimed. That is indistinguishable from vandalism. Any attempt to summarise critical or commercial response, or to present an opinion about something, must be directly attributed to the specific voice that is making the observation. We cannot force our own opinions and biases into the article. Please familiarise yourself with our guidelines on reliable sources as well as our more specific India-focused ones at WP:ICTF.''

Unattributed copy/paste
Hi there, you clearly did not vet any of the information you copy/pasted in this edit. None of the links resolve, so you couldn't possibly have checked any of it. You just blindly copy/pasted. Not helpful. Also, you can't just copy/paste content into Wikipedia, even if it comes from Wikipedia. We need to be able to track the source of our material, so when we copy/paste, we need to provide clear copyright attribution at least in your edit summary, a la "This content copied from Tees Maar Khan (2010 film) - see that article for attribution" is considered the bare minimum. See Copying Within Wikipedia.

As a courtesy to you, I will add archive links to the content at Tees Maar Khan (2010 film) provided that you check the claims against the sources, and provide proper attribution should you choose to paste the content again. I'm also unclear on why you removed the statement that he co-wrote the film with his brother. Thank you, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:27, 30 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Actually, in retrospect, I don't think that most of that content belongs in the Kunder article. We shouldn't be tracking all of that financial data in a biographical article. It's not like one can extrapolate that Kunder's storytelling resulted in a 100% attendance in theatres, vs. the attraction of Farah Khan's direction or because people wanted to see Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif. The financial data just tends to inflate Kunder when there's no justification for that. That said, it does seem odd that a film that grossed 3x its budget would be considered unsuccessful, so if you want to find contrary opinions on that, I'd be open to seeing them.
