User talk:Kashmirian123

Welcome!

Hello, Kashmirian123, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your edits to the page Kashmiri people have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may be removed if they have not yet been. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. As well, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Hello, I'm Sitush. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Kashmiri people, but you didn't provide a reliable source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Sitush (talk) 13:34, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Kashmiri Muslims. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Sitush (talk) 13:38, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Kashmiri Muslim tribes from Hindu lineage. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. ''

Look, you are moving at quite a speed from one article to the next. You are inserting unsourced information on each of them and have been doing for some time now. Furthermore, I am concerned that you may be using more than one account to edit and are perhaps unaware of the constraints imposed on such usage. Please could you start over and read our Five Pillars. Thanks.'' Sitush (talk) 13:42, 4 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Please note that content in Wikipedia articles must be verifiable as having been published in a reliable source, a place with a reputation for fact checking and accuracy. Googling random web pages is not in any way qualify as having a reputation for fact checking and accuracy. If, as you stated on User talk:Sitush you do not have reliable sources THEN YOU MUST STOP adding or reinserting that content into articles.-- The Red Pen of Doom  19:26, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
 * oops I forgot to add this: a large majority of the hits that you find at news.google.com or books.google.com and practically all of the hits at scholar.google.com will provide reliable sourcing. -- The Red Pen of Doom  19:51, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Kalhana, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. ''

Look, to my knowledge there is no reliable source for Kalhana being a Kashmiri Pandit. Yes, he may well have been but the sources specifically acknowledge that his ethnic origins etc are unknown. If you can find a reliable source that verifies your contention then please could you raise it on Talk:Kalhana. And until you do, please stop this continued insertion of unverifiable content. Thanks.'' Sitush (talk) 00:56, 20 October 2012 (UTC)

Yours comments on my talk page
Hi, I've just moved your comments on my talk page. Please accept my apologies for not spotting the message that you posted a couple of weeks ago. There is a convention regarding how talk pages are used and I missed your first message because you were not aware of that. Don't panic! It is late here and I need my sleep but I'll reply properly to you tomorrow. You'll find my reply at User_talk:Sitush, where I'll also try to explain how talk pages work, if someone else has not done so before me. It is great that you are keen to contribute to Wikipedia and I do understand that it can be confusing at first. - Sitush (talk) 01:07, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I've replied now and I hope that it assists your understanding. - Sitush (talk) 11:41, 20 October 2012 (UTC)

Kashmiri Pandit
I have reverted much of your recent work at Kashmiri Pandit. You cannot write of what you know without providing reliable sources to verifiy it, and you should not remove information that is already sourced without providing a valid explanation for doing so. - Sitush (talk) 16:23, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
 * And I have just had to do it again. Please read the sources before significantly altering cited content. Or provide an alternate reliable source. - Sitush (talk) 16:11, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
