User talk:Indifacts

Welcome
Hello Indifacts, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, some of your edits have not conformed to Wikipedia's Manual of Style, and have to be changed. Please familiarize yourself with the guidelines shown there. Edits that don't comply with these guidelines are changed to match what our MoS recommends.

There's a great page about the Manual of Style that has tips on how to effectively write new articles. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. See also the Simplified Manual of Style. Here are a few more good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~&#126;); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Hello Indifacts. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Indifacts. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. 331dot (talk) 11:18, 12 May 2023 (UTC)


 * As this is a page for a Government service, there is no financial aspect involved. this is completely free information about a government profile in India Indifacts (talk) 11:35, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * The information being free is not at issue, nor is the fact that it describes a government service. Are you employed by the Central Architects Service or the Indian government? 331dot (talk) 11:37, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I am merely posting this information for benefit of students who appear in exams to be an officer. You may find the official gazette information at https://cpwd.gov.in/Deputation/CAS.pdf which is from the official government website, freely available for all. it also contains all the service information  Indifacts (talk) 11:45, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I'll address the above reply later, but you have not answered my question. I will block you as an undisclosed paid editor if you do not directly answer the question. 331dot (talk) 11:50, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I should be more clear, I am not associated with this service, i am merely posting for students. Secondly, its certain that never will I, or anyone for that matter(i think) be paid to post information on a government service in India Indifacts (talk) 12:03, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * also, if you are interested to know, i am not from the service or government but after lot of hardwork i just happened to collect lot of information on this service for my neighborhood kid as he needed some help. After i gave him the info, when he told me that none of his classmate knew all this, it just felt right for me to share it on Wikipedia for everyone. Indifacts (talk) 12:11, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Someone can absolutely be paid to post information from their government, with or without being a government employee. Where I am in the United States, that happens all the time, both legitimately and illegitimately. Indifacts sounds like the name of a company or website, is it?
 * Wikipedia is not a place to merely share information. Wikipedia articles exist to summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage choose on their own to say about a topic, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of notability- such as the definition of a notable organization. In this case, Wikipedia does not want to know what the Indian government says about one of its agencies, Wikipedia wants to know what others say about it. Please read Your First Article. 331dot (talk) 12:18, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * i agree with you, but USA is a rich country whereas in India government service is a big dream for millions, its a chance to come out of poverty. Indifacts is not a company, i am an artist, i have no interest in companies. Its just a name i choose as combination of India + facts. The information i have compiled is thought numerous websites, long hold calls and talking to others who know about it. In fact i did so much work to get this information that it seemed like a waste if i couldn't share to others. Indifacts (talk) 12:26, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Very well. Thank you. As I said above, Wikipedia is not for merely sharing information. You should do that on your website or social media. While an article can contain some primary source information, the main purpose is to summarize independent reliable sources that establish notability. Please read some of the links I posted in my last post above. 331dot (talk) 12:35, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * There are numerous pages on Wikipedia sharing similar category of information, infact there are many government department pages showing only information on government.  I have provided very legitimate information stipulated with papers that are passed by parliament and are law of land.
 * I see no reason to be rejected arbitrarily citing technicalities without having knowledge of country specificity. Indifacts (talk) 12:39, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Please see other stuff exists. The existence of other articles has no bearing on your draft.  It could be that these other articles are also inappropriate and simply not addressed yet.  As this is a volunteer project where people do what they can when they can, it is possible for inappropriate content to get past us. This does not mean that more can be added.  We can only address what we know about, and with over 6.5 million articles and a limited number of regular editors to monitor them, we do miss things.  If you would like to help us out, you can identify other problematic articles for possible action.  We could use the help.
 * This is a global project, with people participating from all over the world, and there are no requirements that an editor must be from or even be knowledgeable in a particular country in order to contribute about topics related to a country. 331dot (talk) 12:43, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * dear 331dot,
 * Sorry to call you out but your judgment is flawed, you are ignorant about the realities of places other than USA. Here in India people would pay to get government jobs, the govt would never bother to create a wikipedia page, its humorous analogy that you suggested otherwise. I dont wish to convince an ignorant US citizens on Indian requirements.  Indifacts (talk) 12:49, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * The realities of India have no bearing on Wikipedia policies and guidelines. If you want to go out and start a encyclopedia website with a more Indian perspective based in Indian societal niceties, limiting participation to Indians, you are free to do so. You are also free to work to change Wikipedia policies if you so choose. If you wish to continue working on your draft, you will need to radically change your approach as I've indicated. Good day to you. 331dot (talk) 13:09, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes i may start new encyclopedia, but not on your direction. Secondly yes i will have a good day because i was doing a nice deed today...not unnecessarily imposing nonsensical judgement like some others. Indifacts (talk) 13:13, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I'm not "imposing judgement" on anyone, that's not my role. I'm informing you of our policies. 331dot (talk) 13:15, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Dear 331dot
 * I don't think you are a auto programmed robot with no judgement. You just choose to police my well researched article with some high mindedness. Anyway i dont want to engage with you, I definitely didn't have good time chatting with your self. So bye  Indifacts (talk) 13:18, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * If you feel I have erred in my application of policies to you, you are free to bring me to WP:ANI and discuss it with others, but be advised that your conduct will be examined as well. 331dot (talk) 13:10, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
 * of course i will report your bad judgment and NO i am not scared of my conduct examination which has been perfect throughout. Indifacts (talk) 13:14, 12 May 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm DaxServer. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, New Parliament House, New Delhi, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — DaxServer (t · m · e · c) 08:48, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm The Herald. I noticed that you recently removed content from Ram Mandir without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.
