You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary, as you did at Neha Kakkar. ''Please stop removing templates without addressing issues or discussing them. You are also welcome to blank your talk page, but the edit history remains.''

 * Dear Politanvm,
 * Can you tell me why the template was put back with a valid reason?
 * "This article or section contains close paraphrasing of one or more non-free copyrighted sources," the template states.
 * Since you returned the template, I'm sure you know what those "close paraphrasing" are.
 * I'm eagerly awaiting your compelling reason and those paraphrasing to reinstate the template.
 * Threatening me with a block from editing does not deter me from doing honest editing.
 * Thank you very much.

 * Hi BenDavis021, thanks for replying. I noticed that you had removed the 3 earlier notices that other users had left you:  . Lol1VNIO (#3) explained the the two issues most succinctly, but in a bit more depth:
 * Please take a moment to review Help:Maintenance template removal. You have been indiscriminately removing maintenance templates from dozens of pages, with no other edits on the page. You should either fix the issue first, or comment on the Talk page to explain why the maintenance template isn't necessary. Some of the removals may have been valid for one of the reasons at WP:WTRMT, but there is no way for us to know, because you didn't explain it on the talk page or in an edit summary. Some of the maintenance templates (like the edits Lol1VNIO called out), clearly haven't been resolved.
 * You aren't just removing temporary maintenance templates, but also permanent templates that are there to guide editors and keep articles consistent (e.g.,, ). There's no good reason to remove those templates, unless they're incorrect, but the ones you removed seem correct.
 * Please let me know if you have any questions. Best, Politanvm talk 13:27, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
