Does this account belong to you? It appears to be impersonating you.—^cyberpower_Chat:Online 18:10, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

I came here with the same question. I've indef'd it until this is cleared up. If it is you, please log in to this account and post to its talk page. Failing that, I think we're connected on Facebook and Skype so feel free to message me via either of those. I'll of course unblock it (or any admin can in my absence) if it is you. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 20:48, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

Oucchhh!!!! That account is not mine. Someone is actually trying to trick me I think. Well please keep it indefinitely blocked. And thank you Cyberpower and HJ Mitchell for letting me know about it. :-) --Pratyya ^(Hello!) 10:00, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

Do you want one Edit tab, or two? It's your choice

How to switch between editing environments

Click the [[ ]] to switch to the wikitext editor.

Click the pencil icon to switch to the visual editor.

The editing interface will be changed soon. When that happens, editors who currently see two editing tabs – "Edit" and "Edit source" – will start seeing one edit tab instead. The single edit tab has been popular at other Wikipedias. When this is deployed here, you may be offered the opportunity to choose your preferred appearance and behavior the next time you click the Edit button. You will also be able to change your settings in the Editing section of Special:Preferences.

You can choose one or two edit tabs. If you chose one edit tab, then you can switch between the two editing environments by clicking the buttons in the toolbar (shown in the screenshots). See Help:VisualEditor/User guide#Switching between the visual and wikitext editors for more information and screenshots.

There is more information about this interface change at mw:VisualEditor/Single edit tab. If you have questions, suggestions, or problems to report, then please leave a note at Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback.

Dear Bivek,
I'm sorry for this late reply. Actually I was busy with RL issues and for that reason couldn't reply swiftly.
Now I understood your problem but I'm actually not clear about your quest. What kind of help do you want from me? Is it just reviewing or something technical help you want?--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 11:20, 27 April 2016 (UTC)
