Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you recently removed some content from M. S. Golwalkar with this edit, without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 09:15, 30 October 2015 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Umayyad campaigns in India. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block.

''Infobox changes require consensus. Please do not WP:edit war.'' Kautilya3 (talk) 23:18, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

I noticed your recent edit to Regional power does not have an edit summary.&#32;Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:


 * User contributions
 * Recent changes
 * Watchlists
 * Revision differences
 * IRC channels
 * Related changes
 * New pages list
 * Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting. You need to enable the warning for omitting edit summary. Kautilya3 (talk) 18:24, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

Maddison = major reliable source
Angus Maddison was a leading scholar and specialist on the economic history of GNP. Wikipedia depends on research of major scholars like him to provide reliable secondary sources that we summarize the OR rules applies NOT to scholars but only to Wiki editors who make new claims not supported by a reliable source. the rule = ''Wikipedia does not publish original thought.

Edit warring
Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. zzz (talk) 06:43, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Your revert warring on Anti sikh Riots
with these edits diff ahead, D4i4na has controversially inflated the casualty figures in the article, without consensus, he has have been reverted by me and per BRD you are supposed to make consensus instead of edit warring. . I have followed BRD here, instead of accusing me of Edit warring why don't you make arguments to explain the edits.

You are seen as tag teaming to revert the article to your preferred non consensus version. I suggest you to self revert and join the talk page discussion. -- D Big X ray ᗙ  10:47, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

Kingdom of Sikkim
Can you elaborate as to why you say Sikkim was not independent post-1946? I added that change to a few articles besides the two you reverted, but, as far as I know, that information is correct. Sikkim was independent, since it joined India in 1975. ARR8 (talk) 12:55, 10 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Sikkim was independent since 1861 too because it became British India's protectorate by the treaty of 1861, and at the time of independence India assumed those responsibilities. India signed a treaty with Sikkim's ruler that sustained Sikkim's protectorate status so the protectorate status in this sense was sustained since 1861 to 1975.  You should be providing sources for saying Sikkim became independent in 1947. Orientls (talk) 04:29, 11 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I see. I'll revert my other edits on this topic. Thanks for the info. ARR8 (talk) 23:32, 11 December 2018 (UTC)

Mughal-Maratha wars
As I've clearly mentioned in my edit, there's no legitimate source that states that the Marathas had won the war. So it needs citation. Secondly, the additional claims you've made along with it doesn't match the citations you've affixed. So you've not restored any sourced claim, but a misleading claim. The citations do not state that the "Marathas had quickly regained the lost territories." Furthermore, in that section you must only mention the outcome of the war which actually seems to be inconclusive, at the moment, and not what happened before or after it, which is irrelevant.

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Squatch347 (talk) 18:13, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Hello Orientls, please see the final resolution of the dispute here: Administrators' noticeboard/3RRArchive400. The result was to merge the article and protect it from disruptive editing. Squatch347 (talk) 18:05, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

Tabiti Comments
Well, first, let's stop with the slander of accusing me of being a sockmaster. The only accusation of being a sockmaster on my record was made by you, and rejected by the admin that did the investigation. If you review the closing comments you'll note that the adjudication was done because there has been no expansion of the article in a year, it remains a stub. Finally, your assessment of the positions is incorrect; 2 voted against the merge (you and desmay (RebeccaGreen labelled hers as a question and the IP was shown to be a sock of Falconfly)) and 5 for the merge (Otr500, myself, Aurornisxui, MarkAQuinn (not sure why you think he is a sock), Elmidae) Squatch347 (talk) 15:05, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Hello Orientls. When accusing others of being socks, please be aware of WP:ASPERSIONS. Making a charge which has no basis may be viewed as a personal attack, which is blockable. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 14:51, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
 * I am confident that you had planned to leave this note on talk page of Squatch347 who was indeed caught and blocked for socking which he will himself never accept and never accept that MarkAQuinn was a sock ("not sure why you think he is a sock") yet he continues to falsely refer this account with clean image as a sock. If this is not the case then still, would you rectify this and post the warning on the correct talk page? Orientls (talk) 17:32, 31 January 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't think I made a mistake in my placement of this note. But after review, the questions of sockpuppetry are more complex than I thought. From what was said in the AN3 report, it does appear that the Tabiti article was previously troubled by socks. But if you want to remove my notice from your talk page, you should do so. I am unclear on where Squatch347 accused you of being a sockmaster. I do see you claiming that Squatch347 used a sock here on 7 December, which was before he was blocked (in January 2020 due to the SPI case which you filed). If the charge that User:Tabiti is a sock hasn't been officially confirmed, then Squatch347 shouldn't keep making that charge. I will ask User:Krakkos why he put the suspected sockpuppet tag on User:Tabiti. EdJohnston (talk) 19:08, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi - a small piece of unsolicited advice: I agree with you that it was a weak closing, but the admin is clearly sensitive and does not seem to engage well; best course of action is to leave for six months and renominate. --Goldsztajn (talk) 15:31, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Edit warring at 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic in mainland China
Hi, as you will already be aware given your post on my talk page , you have now reverted me twice two place highly similar content in two places within the lead of the article. Both of your edit summaries acknowledge these are reverts. You should probably treat COVID19 articles as under 1RR, given community sanctions on this topic area, which I'll post below. -Darouet (talk) 13:19, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi Zara Kay is being targeted because she's a non-Muslim and they want to kill her her or shut her down. That guy who reported her account is a Tanzanian Muslim who wants to harm her and silence.

Clearly not WP:VANDALISM - deceptive edit summary
This reversion of yours was clearly not reverting WP:VANDALISM. There may or may not be valid reasons for reverting it, but your edit summary was deceptive. Please be much more honest with your edit summaries. Toddst1 (talk) 17:11, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

We met at a bitter dispute spread over one talk, a handful of user talks and a couple of ANIs, not the best places to meet fellow editors. I regret my loss of cool, which I hope haven't damaged the possibility of you and I collaborating in future, on something.
