Reliable sources
[edit]Hello! Blogs are not considered as reliable sources as basically anyone can create a blog and claim anything. I can write a blog and say that i knew Dara Singh and all information written in your blog is wrong. Someone else can come up with a third version of story claiming to be right. Hence blogs are not reliable sources. For more information on what sources are reliable and what are not, read the Wikipedia:Reliable sources policy. If you have any doubt, you can ask me on my talk page or you can put a {{helpme}}
tag with your doubt and someone will for sure come to solve it. §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 14:20, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
- I note that subsequent to AnimeshKulkarni's you continued to add references to blogs and other unreliable sources to the Dara Singh article. Please stop doing this; we cannot accept such links for the reasons already set out. You are only creating work for your fellow editors who must now remove these references and the information which depends on them. —Psychonaut (talk) 12:47, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
- I think, instead of adding information on Dara Singh's page, article about Dara Singh Dulchipuria should be created seperately.Kooljeet (talk) 18:29, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
- Who is this "Dara Singh Dulchipuria"? §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 05:06, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

Adding reference on Wikipedia articles
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5d/Wikipedia-_Using_Cite_option_from_toolbar.jpg/450px-Wikipedia-_Using_Cite_option_from_toolbar.jpg)
Hello Yaara dildaara! Please do not forget to add references from reliable sources for the content you add to Wikipedia. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Adding a well formatted references is very easy to do.
- While editing any article or a wikipage, on the top of the edit window you will see a toolbar which says "cite" click on it
- Then click on "templates",
- Choose the most appropriate template and fill as many details as you can,
This will add a well formatted reference that would be helpful in case the website link (web URL) becomes inactive (dead/link rot) after some time. You can read more about it on Help:Edit toolbar or see this video File:RefTools.ogv. thanks and regards --DBigXray 20:17, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Be Careful with templates
[edit]- Please be careful while editing WP:Templates. your recent edits at Template:History of India created error on various articles where it was used.
- Please do not add references inside the template.
- If in doubt you can ask me or other editors at WP:HELPDESK
cheers --DBigXray 20:25, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
Sub: Template:History of India
[edit]hi, you just reverted all the work i was doing on this, citing it was causing trouble. please elaborate on those for me or someone else to fix it, else let me continue with my alterations. Yaara dildaara (talk)Yaara dildaara —Preceding undated comment added 21:15, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
- I am sorry, that i had to revert your edits, as your edits had created Cite error on numerous articles wherever this template was used. Also on closer look Your edits were non constructive as they deviated from the primary topic area for which this template was. This template was only created for very notable historical events/periods. please read more about WP:Templates, regards--DBigXray 21:29, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
Neil Armstrong
[edit] Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at Neil Armstrong. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please try to reach a consensus on the talk page.
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. szyslak (t) 22:32, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
Well, if I have any advice for this situation, it would be to discuss the issue, and listen to those who might have a different view on this topic than yours rather than merely insisting they listen to you. You've stopped edit warring, and that's a start. Remember not to do it again. szyslak (t) 00:08, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
- Also many legitimate instaNCES OF wikilinks were removed as "ovrlink". Some names and stuff like Kosygin need to be wikilinked so users can find abotu him. Hes not exactly a common name.Lihaas (talk) 02:13, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
- i defend my deletion. Reasons:-
- WP:UNDERLINK see "if words... are needed to aid understanding of the article" Note: not understanding standalone terms but understanding the article
- WP:OVERLINK see "...relevant to the topic of the article" Note: not relevant to terms by themselves but relevant to the context of the article
- WP:SPECIFICLINK see "Always link to the article... appropriate to the context from which you link"
- WP:NOTLINK see "content-relevant links to an article"
Yaara dildaara (talk) 04:21, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
- Then per BRD [lease discuss on talk so others can contribute. You may be in the side of consensus on some, but there are some issuesLihaas (talk) 04:24, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
Leads don't have quotes formatted like that, above the lead text. They are usually embedded within the lead text somewhere. Furthermore, WP:LEADCITE doesn't say anything along the lines of direct quotations needing to be in the lead. You need to have a consensus to add in content, even if the content is factual, and unfortunately, you did not.

[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help.

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.
