Non-free content use
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. We always appreciate when users upload files. However, it appears that one or more of the files you have uploaded or added to a page, specifically List of Indian State Emblems, may fail our non-free policy. Most often, this involves editors uploading or using a copyrighted file of a living person. For other possible reasons, please read up on our Non-free criteria. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Marchjuly (talk) 22:09, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Even though you were notified about a month ago to stop inappropriately adding non-free files to the List of Indian State Emblems, you went back and did the same thing again. It’s OK to make a mistake once or maybe even twice, so the relevant files have been removed again. If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask below, but please don’t re-add any non-free file’s to that article again. The next time you do, I will ask an administrator to step in and take a look. — Marchjuly (talk) 23:42, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Chandigarh Seal.png
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Chandigarh Seal.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Please stop inappropriately adding non-free files to List of Indian State Emblems. You’ve been warned about this twice before at, but still have continued to do so. As explained at Talk:List of Indian state emblems, there will be no more warnings after this; if you re-add any such files again, and administrator will be asked to step in and take steps to stop you from doing it again. — Marchjuly (talk) 22:27, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Seal of Lakshadweep.png
Thanks for uploading File:Seal of Lakshadweep.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is [ a list of your uploads]. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Marchjuly (talk) 23:28, 29 September 2018 (UTC)

Problems with upload of File:Unmaithilidec.png
Thanks for uploading File:Unmaithilidec.png. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or what the copyright status is. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Media copyright questions.

July 2019
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

I noticed your recent edit to Names for India does not have an edit summary.&#32;Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:


 * User contributions
 * Recent changes
 * Watchlists
 * Revision differences
 * IRC channels
 * Related changes
 * New pages list
 * Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting. Thanks! Kautilya3 (talk) 10:40, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Classical languages
Hi Ashutosh. I am writing this note to you with reference to your claim on the antiquity of Maithili literature. I have gone through the source you have provided "A Survey of Maithili literature" by Radhakrishna Choudharey and disagree with your assessment. True, the source claims old Maithili ranges from 900 AD-1350 AD (page 5 introduction) but provides no information about classical texts from the 9th century/10th century. So this would be the initial period of literalization (inscriptions, simple verses etc). Also, the source claims (page 6) the beginnings of Maithili literature can be traced back to the period Nanyadeva (1097-1147) in his Saraswatihridayalankarahara. Your claim that Maithili literature predates 10th century is not tenable and ony a 12th century claim can be accepted. You can take this matter to an admin and have him decide your case if you like.Pied Hornbill (talk) 18:56, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Caste system in India, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. Kautilya3 (talk) 13:05, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 20
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Angika, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Maithili ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Angika check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Angika?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 15:25, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

Please see Help:Edit summary - you need to provide an edit summary when making contentious changes. Also, have a look at WP:BRD - when someone undoes your changes (especially an unsourced one), you need to gain a consensus on the talk page instead of simply reinstating your changes. Finally, please note that Wikipedia is not a platform to engage in advocacy for your language. utcursch &#124; talk 11:42, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Divisions of Maithil Brahmins


A tag has been placed on Divisions of Maithil Brahmins requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://vedicastrology.wikidot.com/maithil-brahmana. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. — Diannaa (talk) 12:47, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

Edit-warring
Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle 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.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;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&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.


 * When you disrupt a widely used template or key, your edits are little better than vandalism. You're not a newbie -- you know how things work here. Seek consensus for your changes, as other editors have asked you, or I will request that you be blocked. — kwami (talk) 08:28, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Help:IPA/Sanskrit; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. 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.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and 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. Nardog (talk) 15:24, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

I do not want to do that, but my edits are reverted again and again, without any sensible reason. I gave many citations and explanations. Even after being reverted, I waited, and answered each question asked and eliminated all confusions. But, they don't want to give a plausible reason. I deleted various transcriptions of Visarga, because it was said to be discussed in talk page. But, as I have said several times and saying once again, that I'm really intolerable to transcribing ṛ as ri. Ashutosh Jha (talk) 16:33, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at Leila (TV series), you may be blocked from editing. Bishonen &#124; tålk 15:46, 7 October 2022 (UTC)


 * The same goes for your edit to The Kashmir files. The lead section is supposed to summarize the body of the article - you're not supposed to put your own opinion into it. Also, what was it about the prominent edit notice "You are not permitted to modify the lede paragraph of this article without prior discussion and consensus on the talkpage" that you didn't understand? For this kind of disruptive editing, you have been topic banned from editing pages related to India, Pakistan and Afghanistan. See below. Bishonen &#124; tålk 15:55, 7 October 2022 (UTC).

Writing shorter
It takes longer, but it's worth it. Very few people will read an 800-word paragraph. You probably could have cut that to 100 words, but it takes time to edit. I know you've got IRL things to deal with now, but when you're working here, you need to write short, and that takes time, so consider whether you have time to work here or need to do it later when you've got the time.
