Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Arabs, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. ''Adding flags to infobox. See talk page'' - Mlpearc  ( open channel ) 20:01, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Cpt.a.haddock. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Akbar II, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you recently removed content from Antigua and Barbuda 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 the 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.

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Indo-Scythians, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. utcursch &#124; talk 15:46, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Christine Kangaloo


A tag has been placed on Christine Kangaloo requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.ttparliament.org/members.php?mid=26&pid=6&id=CKA01. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 23:26, 19 July 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Sitush. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person   on List of Jats, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. 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) 05:57, 29 July 2017 (UTC)

Please stop making disruptive edits. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. - LouisAragon (talk) 11:59, 11 August 2017 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you blank out or remove content from Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Spaniards. Shellwood (talk) 02:56, 14 August 2017 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by inserting unpublished information or your personal analysis into an article, as you did at List of lingua francas. Iryna Harpy (talk) 05:09, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Turkic peoples, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia. Long-term disruptive editing, never using edit summaries, not using sources, etcetera. - LouisAragon (talk) 17:28, 18 September 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for October 2
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Mughal Empire, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Imperial Seal ([//toolserver.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Mughal_Empire check to confirm] | [//toolserver.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Mughal_Empire?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 11:43, 2 October 2017 (UTC)

Flags
Hi. Please don't use the Alam of the Mughal Empire and the Bengal Sultanate flags. The consensus is that they are not authentic. Best. --regentspark (comment) 16:49, 2 October 2017 (UTC)

Topic ban violation
This is a violation of your topic ban, any further edits violating your topic ban will result in you being blocked. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  18:37, 2 October 2017 (UTC) To enforce an arbitration decision and for multiple violations of your topic ban after being warned about it, you have been blocked temporarily from editing. You are welcome to edit once the block expires; however, please note that the repetition of similar behavior may result in a longer block or other sanctions. If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page:. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  23:45, 5 October 2017 (UTC)  Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."
