Problem with your custom signature
You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. A change to Wikipedia's software has made your current custom signature incompatible with the software.

The problem: Your preferences are set to interpret your custom signature as wikitext. However, your current custom signature does not contain any wikitext.

The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, or you can fix your signature.


 * Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:
 * Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
 * Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
 * Remove anything in the text box.  (It might already be empty.)
 * Click the blue "" button at the bottom of the page. (The red "" button will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)
 * Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:
 * Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
 * Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
 * Click the blue "" button at the bottom of the page.

More information about custom signatures is available at Signatures. If you have followed these instructions and still want help, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Signatures. 19:04, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

March 2022
Hello, I'm Fowler&fowler. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions&#32;to Exodus of Kashmiri Hindus have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse. I am sorry but you cannot remove citatiosn to major scholars of the field. You especially cannot alter the quotes from their scholarly works included in a citation. You also cannot use the edit summary argument "minor" lightly, when you are tampering with the edits in such a major fashion. Please read WP:SOURCETYPES, WP:SCHOLARSHIP and WP:TERTIARY. Barbara D. Metcalf and Thomas R. Metcalf are major scholars of South Asia and their work is a major tertiary source. Fowler&amp;fowler «Talk»  11:32, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

ARBIPA sanctions alert

 * is being very kind to you. But I don't think kindness warranted. To come barging into a highly contentious subject, and make a series of fudging edits without any source or explation and labelling them as "minor changes" is not permitted. If you do this again, I will ask for you to be sanctioned. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 11:43, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
