 * @Nehansaxan, it would be better to take this to the SPI and file a report there.  Ravensfire  (talk) 19:27, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I'm not familiar with SPI. I need help with this sock consistently being disruptive now Nehansaxan (talk) 19:33, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Look at reports in the archive, read through the instructions and just try it. Yes, I know this sock is annoying, but it will be far faster if you start the SPI report.  It will probably be at least tomorrow before I'll have much of a chance to do my due diligence and put one together.  Ravensfire  (talk) 19:35, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Please be atleast aware or reply about what your page was written about
Excuse me, Mr. Ravensfire.. I do made a note here 15 days ago for someone named Nehasaxan, a huge fanatic of South Indian actress Meena Amma ( came to know by his edit history) keep mentioning me pointing making me as a sock or something like that..

I do make fair edits here... Not favouritism or fanatic edits...

That Nehasaxan brother is keep highlighting actress Meena Amma multiple times... is not a problem for me.. The thing is that why he keeps stalk me over someone edits his favourite artist page?? Stalking is not q good thing for me to support.. I just checked his edit histort today and found that he is a fanatic of Meena Amma. And a biggest hater of Actress Jyothika i guess ( understood only i came to know about his mentioning in your talk page)

Why you kept silent even i texted you 15 days back and only replying for him ( fanatic Meena Amma editor Nehasaxan ) Ravi chinthakayala (talk) 06:56, 25 March 2024 (UTC)


 * I guess I probably need to get more active on the SPI report, don't I.  Ravensfire  (talk) 13:27, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary, as you did at Muhammad Zubair (journalist). ''Warning: Cease engaging in edit wars and disruptive editing on Wikipedia. Your actions are disrupting the editing process and violating Wikipedia's policies. Continued behavior may result in blocking from editing. Please collaborate and reach consensus on article content instead.'' Sak7340 (talk) 13:41, 29 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Ahhh, love it when an editor that's reverted (checking quickly) 5 times in the past few hours leaves a warning like this. Sure, let's see how this works out for you. Obviously, this is already at WP:EWN for your egregious edit-warring, you might also want to read Dispute Resolution page for some other ideas on handling your edits being reverted and work towards consensus.

@Maphumor is also a sock of @Srimonbanik2007 both of them edit mostly the same page. And Maphumor reedit the edits of socks after few time. Maphumor usually don't leave edit summary similar to that sockmaster. 223.239.116.16 (talk) 10:18, 31 March 2024 (UTC)

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024
Hello ,

Backlog update: The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations to, who led with over 2,300 points.

Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations to, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.

Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the May backlog drive planning discussion.

It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!

2023 Awards won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!

WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work to Special:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.

Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.

Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated NPP Browser tool.

Reminders:
 * You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Pages Patrol Discord.
 * Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
 * To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

April 2024
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at The Ganges and Himalayas, you may be blocked from editing. ''Please refrain from reverting edits unnecessarily without reading the entire guidelines. It's permissible to add Indic languages in Hinduism-related articles, as stated in the guidelines. Additionally, consensus is not required as the guidelines already address this matter. Thank you for your attention to this matter.'' TheDarkKnight433 (talk) 00:53, 8 April 2024 (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 noticeboards.
 * 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.


 * @TheDarkKnight433 Well done on the copy-cat warning! I'm quite impressed.  Now, how about you actually understand the warning and recognize that you do need to follow the community guidelines here rather than just push your edit?  Ravensfire  (talk) 00:54, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
 * How about you go and read the guidelines again? It's already well discussed and no need to dicuss further. Instead of poking in everyone's editing, atleast get a knowledge before just reverting it. TheDarkKnight433 (talk) 00:58, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
 * First, stop the personal attacks. Not helpful.  Second, understand that differences in opinion around this do exist, and the appropriate way to resolve disputes on Wikipedia is to discuss the edits and get outside consensus.  WP:BRD.  Ravensfire  (talk) 01:01, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
 * It's quite ironic that you deem my actions as a personal attack. It appears that every suggestion I make is met with opposition and reversion. Take, for instance, the recent edits to the Abbas Ansari article. The last two editors other than me made significant changes without seeking consensus, yet I didn't observe any warnings issued to them. Let's ensure consistency and fairness in enforcing Wikipedia's guidelines across all contributors. TheDarkKnight433 (talk) 02:17, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Ganges
Hi Ravensfire, criticising another editor's posts is a delicate matter, but I think your post at Talk:Ganges is confusing. Immediately under TheDarkKnight433's post you start "That's basically my thought on this as well"; from the rest of your post, it appears you are agreeing with Jmcgnh's post, above TheDarkKnight433's post, but it initially reads that you are agreeing with TheDarkKnight433. If I'm misunderstanding your intent, or you think I am interfering, I sincerely apologise. Best wishes - Arjayay (talk) 10:13, 9 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Whoops - thank you for pointing that out! I'll tweak it slightly to prevent confusion.  I appreciate you letting me know!  Ravensfire  (talk) 12:54, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

Salman Khan section heading.
Hey we meet again.

You reverted my section heading on Salman Khan's section heading "Blockbuster run". This is the reason I gave earlier:

"Changed section heading to "blockbuster run". Because it hints at his back to back blockbuster films, the main highlight of this phase of his career. Also the previous heading "Resurgence and stardom" is misleading because Salman has had stardom since 1990s. So blockbuster run is more fitting"

What's your thought on this? Parminder Sarwara (talk) 10:33, 17 April 2024 (UTC)


 * The prior version was more neutral and avoid the hype / puffery language of "Blockbuster". You may want to reach out to the film Wiki project for a larger audience to ask about this.  I look at featured articles for highly successful actors that have wide readership.  Some really good examples would be Elvis Presley but also Dimple Kapadia, Kareena Kapoor Khan as other examples of featured articles with relatively neutral (and yes, boring) descriptions.  Ravensfire  (talk) 14:23, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Parminder Sarwara (talk) 03:46, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Achha to tu ye bol raha hai ki section heading mein blockbuster likhna promotional hai, lekin stardom likhna promotional nahi hai? Ye kaha ka logic hai be? Ye to completely subjective baat hai ki stardom ya blockbuster run mein se konsi heading zyada promotional hai? Tu hota kon hai decide karne wala?
 * Aur tu bhi to ignore kar raha hai ki section heading mein stardom likhne se ye indicate hota hai ki Salman ko 2010 mein stardom mila. Jabki wo to 90s mein hi star ban gya tha. Parminder Sarwara (talk) 12:56, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
 * agar tu reply nahi kr rha to main section heading firse change kr raha hoon. Parminder Sarwara (talk) 07:33, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
 * See WP:ENGLISHPLEASE. Sid95Q (talk) 08:24, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Yup, this please. And honestly, let's take this to the article talk page, as this is about article content.  Ravensfire  (talk) 15:36, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Well, I don't know how to do that. Guide me or something. Parminder Sarwara (talk) 13:51, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Go to the article, click on the link to the talk page for the article, then create a new section there just like you did here.  Ravensfire  (talk) 22:32, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Ravensfire, you are editing out information about 2 new serials and placing the completed serial in current programming list. pls have a look into it.. You are completing removing info about malli and punnagai poove, placing completed serial priyamana thozhi again. it doesnt make any sense. do research before editing.

Regarding episode count, this is the stand by you and other editor. it was like this for 4 lomg years .and you guys appear suddenly to change it. YOu have expressed serials should be listed in alphabetical order, but it wasnt even there for even 10 days .. it was again moved to timestamp ordering and you guys have forgotten it for 4 years.. what u have been doing all these years when some random starnger edits in their own way? You have problem only with me?

I've personally got no real objection to adding the episode count && I have no problem in your view about mentioning episode count as said by User:Ravensfire. Munthanam (talk) 04:48, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Maacher Jhol (disambiguation)


The article Maacher Jhol (disambiguation) has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Disambiguation page not required (WP:ONEOTHER). Primary topic article has a hatnote to the only other use."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

hello, Season 10 introduced the concept of ideal match, it's not fan trivia and is an important element of the show since then. I would request you to undo edits. Thank you. Dr. Trafalgar D Water Law (talk) 06:45, 16 May 2024 (UTC)


 * @Dr. Trafalgar D Water Law yes, it's unsourced fan trivia. it's been removed before and added back by a certain blocked user.  Please don't keep putting unsourced fan trivia back in the article. Thank you.  Ravensfire  (talk) 10:56, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
 * First read what i said, It is NOT unsourced fan trivia. Do some research before randomly doing disruptive edits. Dr. Trafalgar D Water Law (talk) 04:39, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
 * @Dr. Trafalgar D Water Law And you ignore the main point if the revert, it's WP:FANCRUFT and doesnt belong in the article. Yes, to a fan like you it's important which is the point of FANCRUFT.  There's already far more details there than is warranted.  Follow WP:BRD and discuss on the article talk page at this point.  Ravensfire  (talk) 04:49, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Do you even watch the show? Probably No. Because if you do so you can see it is part of the show and not WP:FANCRUFT. You can't simply come after 5 years and randomly remove it calling it fan trivia. Dr. Trafalgar D Water Law (talk) 04:53, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

May 2024
Hi Ravensfire! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Devi Sri Prasad several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree&#32;at, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. I have added a section at the talk page for you both to discuss this issue.. Goldenarrow9 (talk) 17:29, 20 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Didn't really intend to issue a warning as you look like a well-experienced wikipedian, but I can't find a generic edit war notice elsewhere and didn't want to take the effort of linking through the specific talk pages/wikipedia rules manually. Goldenarrow9 (talk) 17:37, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
 * No problem! Good faith from your part and good on you to try to prevent drama.  Left a post on the article talk page section you started, I'm not worrying about this further.  Ravensfire  (talk) 17:41, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Title
Dear Ravensfire! I noticed that you have removed the title of Asianet founder in Asianet and Asianet News pages. As per MOS:DOCTOR which you refer to, the title should be used if the person is better known with title. According to the Asianet archives, mentions in media and Google search queries, the founder of Asianet is known only with the title Dr. Using his name without the title in google search is forwarding you to information about famous South Indian actress Raji Menon which is misleading readers. I think that in the Asianet and Asianet News pages the founder should be mentioned with title (at least in the first mention) to avoid of misleading of Wikipedia readers. Please share your thoughts. Frezig (talk) 14:26, 31 May 2024 (UTC)


 * The exceptions are for when the person is regularly mentioned with Dr - with Dr. Ruther being the canonical example. In other words, when they are addressed, people normally use Dr as part of their name.  That's pretty rare, the vast majority of articles where someone with a doctorate is mentioned you won't see Dr included.  A key part of MOS:DOCTOR that you missed is "should be used only with subjects of a biography that are widely known by a pseudonym or stage name containing the title". That's not supported here.   Ravensfire  (talk) 14:33, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I don't agree with you, but I respect your decision. Thank you. Frezig (talk) 15:09, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
 * According to your experience, I need one more advice from you (if you don’t mind). I found sources for some old WP pages with dead links, but they are in regional languages. As I understand, they can be added if the source is reliable and information doesn’t duplicate in English. But I cannot find the guidance how to add such sources properly. Please advise and guide me. Frezig (talk) 09:06, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Sorry, don’t want to be annoying, but in continuation to our discussion of “title” topic, please look at this sources confirming that the founder of Asianet is regularly mentioned with title Dr (it even can be considered as a part of his name).
 * 1.    In the year 2000, this person was presented the award of “Man of the Year" by the Government of Kerala, as the founder of Asianet “for contribution to the growth of Kerala and IT”. Please watch 1 min. video where the Governor handovers the award statuette to Dr. Menon, on which his name is written with title.
 * 2.    The article confirming the authenticity of the video mentioned above. The name of Asianet founder always mentioned with Dr.
 * 3.    Archive of the official press release issued by The Press Information Bureau (PIB) of the Government of India (New Delhi) confirming that the founder of Asianet is known only with title Dr, and it can be considered as a part of his name.  Frezig (talk) 12:59, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
 * That's not uncommon to see sources like that use Dr in the name - it's common for medical doctors. But you don't need that used on Wikipedia on high quality articles because of what's demanded in MOS:DOCTOR.  We don't use titles / honorifics like that in articles here.  Honestly, at this point given you're pushing this so hard, who's pushing you to get this included?  Have you read WP:COI and WP:PAID?  Ravensfire  (talk) 05:33, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
 * For us malayalees (Keralites) this name with and without the tittle are two different famous persons. Just want to avoid of misleading of Wikipedia readers. As you see I discuss the topic with you to find the better option and I don’t understand your claims about violation of clauses WP:COI and WP:PAID. Frezig (talk) 06:46, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

can you please check the Sliver Synth page now again
Hello, many days ago, you nominated the Silver Synth page for deletion due to a lack of reliable sources. Now I have found more credible sources through Google searches. I believe that with these new sources, the page meets the notability standards and should be published.

Please review the new sources to determine if the page can be republished. If you need any specific links, let me know, and I will provide them. you can find it in Google search as well. As Silver Synth is a well-known musician, it is important that his page be reinstated. and also please let me know what do you think about it.

Thank you for your assistance. Sa.Editor99 (talk) 14:04, 10 July 2024 (UTC)


 * To be accurate, I moved the article from main article space into draft space.
