Welcome!
Hello, Prithika3, 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 recent edits has not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and has been or will be removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or in other 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. Additionally, 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! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

WP:NPOV and WP:OR
Hi there, though I know you mean well, your recent additions at Draupadi are problematic for a few reasons: I have reverted your edits. You are free to discuss the changes below or open a unique conversation at Talk:Draupadi. Please do not resubmit the content without achieving consensus, as it will be considered disruptive. Thanks.

 * 1) Per WP:NPOV, we present content from a neutral point of view. We are not permitted to present opinions as facts, which you have done in spades. "Fearsome warrior" is an opinion, not a fact. "Warrior" is a fact. "Shameful" is a judgment and judgments are not neutral. "She was a strong, resolute woman, who stood up for herself and others, and yet, was humble and respectful." These too represent opinions and the content is completely unsuitable for inclusion. We also aren't here to express awe of a subject, which the content you have submitted appears to do.
 * 2) Per WP:OR, we are not permitted to add our personal analyses to articles because this constitutes original research. What you have submitted represents your personal analysis. Any statement of opinion or analysis or conclusions drawn about a subject need to be attributed to specific voices from reliable published sources. If a scholar describes the subject as a "fearsome warrior", that should be presented as a quotation and attributed to the scholar. I'm sure you can imagine what problems are caused when we allow users to add their opinions and analyses to articles. "This song is the most beautiful song of all time and has no equal."
 * 3) Encyclopedias do not ask questions, they answer them. Rhetorical questions have no place in articles.
 * 4) You are engaged in an edit war. When content you submit has been reverted by another user, your recourse is to open a discussion on the article's talk page to seek consensus for inclusion. This is a collaborative project, so forcing your perspective into articles is not in keeping with the collaborative spirit. Repeatedly submitting the same problematic content is disruptive. Please see WP:BRD.

Re: this, you're again introducing value judgments like "shameful" and "proved herself to be worthy of respect and admiration" and drawing conclusions like "This showed that in a predominant male society, a strong female voice was raised." You can't add opinions to articles this way. If a scholar thinks something, then you should attribute the opinion to the scholar, and then look for contrary opinions for balance. Please stop adding editorial content to articles. If you need guidance, consider approaching WikiProject Women's History or if you are attempting to focus on feminism, consider asking for help at WikiProject Feminism. I don't want to keep stepping on your contributions, but there is a real problem with the way you're adding your point of view to the article. Articles are supposed to be written from a neutral point of view. Lastly, if you are not familiar with how to add proper references, please see Referencing for Beginners. In the edit window there are built-in tools to make it easier to cite websites, newspapers, journals and books. Place your cursor where you want to add a citation, pull down "Templates", then select one of these templates and fill in the boxes. Thank you. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 23:15, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
