Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Gspgoat! Your additions to Muhammad of Ghor have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. Please see Donating copyrighted materials.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 16:02, 2 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Greetings Diannaa, Thank you for bringing this to my attention, and I appreciate your guidance on Wikipedia's policies. I apologize for any oversight on my part in relation to the addition on Muhammad of Ghor. I understand the importance of adhering to Wikipedia's guidelines, particularly regarding copyright and proper attribution. I will review the content I added, make the necessary adjustments to comply with Wikipedia's policies, and ensure that I provide proper citations for any information taken from external sources.If there are specific issues or areas that need attention, please let me know, and I will address them promptly. I'm committed to contributing in accordance with Wikipedia's standards and appreciate your assistance in this matter.Thank you for your time and guidance Gspgoat(talk) 16:30, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi Gspgoat! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Prithviraj Chauhan several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree&#32;at, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Re Pa©ker&#38;Tra©ker  (♀)  17:22, 6 December 2023 (UTC)


 * I appreciate the reminder about Wikipedia's edit warring policy and I will avoid getting into an edit war. I understand the importance of discussion on the article's talk page. I will take the necessary steps to engage with other editors to reach a consensus on any disputed content. If you have any specific suggestions or concerns, I am open to discussing them.Thanks and Regards Gspgoat(talk) 17:44, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

Moving articles
Greetings. I've relocated the articles 'Battle of Anasagara' and 'Battle of Vavvera' from mainspace to draftspace. The rationale behind this decision is our inability to identify names for battles that historians haven't officially named. For a more detailed understanding, please refer to this discussion. Feel free to incorporate this information into the 'Ghaznavid campaigns in India.' Happy editing! Imperial [AFCND]  12:00, 10 December 2023 (UTC)


 * I have renamed them according to the sources as mentioned on the respective talk pages of the articles Gspgoat(talk) 07:36, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Ok. Lets wait for the reviewer to name more appropriate title. Till then, keep it. Imperial  [AFCND]  07:37, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Battle of Khetri
Hello, Gspgoat

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username North8000, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed an article that you started, Battle of Khetri, for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to contest the deletion:


 * 1) Edit the page
 * 2) Remove the text that looks like this:
 * 3) Click the  button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with. And remember to sign your reply with. Thanks!
