Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Simplified Manual of Style


 * Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or sock puppetry.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date).

Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

I noticed your recent edit to Sikhism 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 and
 * Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! Kautilya3 (talk) 09:59, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

Unsourced content
@Bastollah: Please do not add unsourced content into Sikhism article, as you did here. Please self-revert, or add a reliable source, and see WP:V, WP:RS and WP:CITE for help on how to do this and for wikipedia policies on content. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 18:08, 17 October 2015 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Sikhism. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. 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.

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Sikh, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. You cannot add comments like "considered to be the scum of the Sikh society"'' without providing reliable sources for it. '' Thomas.W talk 12:24, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

Final warning
Edits such as this are clearly unacceptable. In addition, you seem to be using Wikipedia as an avenue for some personal crusade. Any further disruption, be it in the form of attacks on groups of people, addition of original research, or your opinion to articles will result in you losing your editing privileges with no further warning. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  14:58, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

Adding reference to Wikipedia articles
Hello Bastollah! Please do not forget to add references from reliable sources for the content you add to Wikipedia. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Adding a well formatted references is very easy to do. This will add a well formatted reference that would be helpful in case the website link (web URL) becomes inactive (dead/link rot) after some time. You can read more about it on Help:Edit toolbar or see this video File:RefTools.ogv. thanks and regards --Kautilya3 (talk) 10:53, 19 November 2015 (UTC)

I have reverted your edits to Sikhism because they were unsourced and simply repeated your previous edits which were reverted by Kautilya3 because they were unsourced.

When an edit made by you is challenged, do not simply repeat it without explanation. Instead, provide verifiable reliable inline citations that support your edit, or take your ideas to the article's talk page and seek consensus there. The advice on providing inline citations in the section above will help if you have difficulty. Apuldram (talk) 20:15, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Any further disruption and you are looking at a topic ban. It appears that you don't understand our policies or how to collaborate; you've been alerted to this multiple times in the past. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  07:20, 22 November 2015 (UTC)
