Tips 
 * Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
 * It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
 * If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
 * Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
 * When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
 * If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
 * Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, Pbritti (talk) 16:22, 24 July 2023 (UTC)

Question
Hi! Again, I wanted to welcome you to Wikipedia. I've seen quite a few of your edits as I have many St. Thomas Christian articles on my watchlist and noticed you seemed rather proficient at editing and fairly familiar with Wikipedia nomenclature. Because of this, I wanted to see if you had perhaps edited Wikipedia under a different account. If so, don't worry: as long as you aren't simultaneously editing from multiple accounts, it's not generally considered a problem (see Wikipedia's sockpuppetry standards for more info). However, I would encourage you to declare any prior accounts you may have and, if possible, set their user pages so that they redirect to your present account. If you have never edited with a logged-in account prior to this account, please ignore this message. Thank you, and happy editing. ~ Pbritti (talk) 17:25, 27 July 2023 (UTC)


 * @Pbritti Hi! Thanks for the message. I haven't edited under a different account. This is my first and only account. But I have edited without logging in many times before. I don't think I am proficient at editing nor at the nomenclature but I am enjoying learning it. My current strategy is to look at other edits and follow the pattern even when I am not exactly sure about the actual meaning of things like types of brackets and the different text colours but I got the knack of a few of them like redirection and adding reference. Yet I am getting stuck at adding titles to citations, adding tables etc. Gregory5672 (talk) 17:44, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Excellent. I'd keep at it, as you're definitely accomplishing a lot. Since you're editing in the St. Thomas Christian space, I'd encourage you to glance at the relatively inactive WikiProject Oriental Orthodoxy and the more active and more generalist WikiProject Christianity. If you ever need help, please reach me at my talk page (my ping notifications seems to be operating incorrectly). ~ Pbritti (talk) 19:31, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
 * @Pbritti Sure. I will definitely do that. Gregory5672 (talk) 03:10, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

February 2024
Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. ''Quite a few of your edits have been inaccurate or actively violate WP:NPOV. I think it might be wise for you to gain editing experience outside of Indian Christianity-related articles before resuming editing in this subject area. ~'' Pbritti (talk) 14:59, 15 February 2024 (UTC)


 * @Pbritti  I will definitely try that. But some of the reverts that you've done in the page Jacobite Syrian Christian Church regarding the "Malankara Metropolitan", is misleading. The Legal title of Malankara Metropolitan is fixed by the judgement of several Courts including the Apex court in India. Gregory5672 (talk) 15:06, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Indian court decisions should be mentioned, but these terms (for Wikipedia's purposes) are governed not exclusively by a single state body but also other reliable sources such as academic texts or (in a more limited context) official documents from major denominations. ~ Pbritti (talk) 15:23, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
