January 2009
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Call me Bubba (talk) 18:01, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Quraysh
Please stop moving your new section up to the top of the article. In general, it's better to keep the basic description text at the top. Also, don't mark links with bold text as you did; use references instead. Read WP:REF for more. Thanks. &mdash;  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 16:01, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Paravar
Hi, I have just reverted your recent contribution to Paravar because it seems possible that you are linking to copyrighted content that someone has uploaded to Google Docs. As with stuff uploaded to scribd.com, such content is legally dubious.

I am sure that there is a way round this which is why I would be grateful if you could also advise me of your expertise in the field of genetics and statistical analysis. Obviously, you don't need to tell me your name, where you work or anything of that nature. - Sitush (talk) 17:52, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

Paraphrasing
Thanks for paraphrasing at Paraiyar. I was intending to do it myself but when I looked at the clock it became a mad panic because I had over-run & should have been on my way to a hospital appointment. Sorry about that. - Sitush (talk) 18:12, 7 March 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 8
Hi. When you recently edited Paraiyar, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Outcasts (check to confirm | 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) 11:18, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

Possible close paraphrasing at Paraiyar
Your edit here seems to me to be a pretty close paraphrase of the source, pages 67-68. It is also far more vague than it should probably be, both in terms of the page range cited and who believed in it etc. Can you possibly improve things? If not then I will have to read the entire source yet again and see what I can do - for some reason, I struggle to keep the details of that source in my head. - Sitush (talk) 15:30, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

Edits to A. Raja
Hello Thistorian,

This is with regard to your edits at A. Raja. You have on many occasions given incorrect reasons as an excuse for removal of text from the article. Please stop doing this, otherwise I will have to report you for vandalism.The Discoverer (talk) 16:47, 23 October 2012 (UTC)

I have given correct reasons, first read all the BLP rules before you talk to me? I have faith in Administrators they will take care. Thistorian (talk) 14:17, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

A. Raja
Don't act like a child. You yourself know that the reason you gave in the edit summary is crap. Next time, you vandalize the article, you will be reported. -- Anbu121 ( talk me ) 17:41, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

Stop your silly personal attacks on me. you did not explain any reasons & rules at all, let Administrators decide it.Thistorian (talk) 12:44, 26 October 2012 (UTC)


 * You are WP:CANVASSing and I strongly advise you to stop asking editors to intervene on your behalf. I also advise you to take the dispute to the article talk page. Regards, GiantSnowman 14:57, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your reply, only my complaint in the biography of living persons notice board haven't got any reply after a long time. so i directly brought the notice to you. just a reply like "it's in the process" would be thankful. Thistorian (talk) 15:09, 26 October 2012 (UTC)


 * You need to discuss the issues on the article talk page first of all, not a noticeboard. GiantSnowman 15:21, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

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

i have summarised the article, it's u vandalising by inserting Libelous material.Thistorian (talk) 17:56, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

Take it up on the talk page. I'll have to block you if you revert again. --regentspark (comment) 17:57, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

October 2012
Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. MrOllie (talk) 18:14, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Note: I actually blocked you, Thistorian, because I misread the times on your edits and the warnings above--my apologies. I see that after the final warning, you did not edit the article, and this is good. Please note that if you edit war even one more time on the article, though, I will reinstate the block. If you do not feel that you're getting a fair response on the article talk page, please open a discussion at the BLP noticeboard or some other form of dispute resolution.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
