Hello Albert Deccan. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm DBigXray, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:
    Introduction to Wikipedia
    The five pillars of Wikipedia
    Editing tutorial
    How to edit a page
    Simplified Manual of Style
    The basics of Wikicode
    How to develop an article
    How to create an article
    Help pages
    What Wikipedia is not
Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:
    Do be bold
    Do assume good faith
    Do be civil
    Do keep cool!
    Do maintain a neutral point of view
    Don't spam
    Don't infringe copyright
    Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
    Don't commit vandalism
    Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
    Ask a question
or you can:
    Get help at the Teahouse
or even:
    Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
    Fight vandalism
    Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
    Help contribute to articles
    Perform maintenance tasks
           
    Become a member of a project that interests you
    Help design new templates
    Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Please remember to:

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the   button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Adding reference to Wikipedia articles

edit
 
Just follow the steps as shown, and fill in the details

Hello Albert Deccan! 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 well-formatted references is easy.

  1. 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.
  2. Then click on "templates".
  3. Choose the most appropriate template and then fill all relevant details.

This will add a well-formatted reference, which will allow other people to see where you got your information from. You can read more about this at Help:Edit toolbar, or watch this video: File:RefTools.ogv. Thanks and regards. —DBigXray 14:15, 5 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Dias Plot

edit
 

The article Dias Plot has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No evidence of any notability for this bus stop.

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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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.

Deletion process of Dias Plot article

edit
  Moved from Talk:Dias Plot

Hi Fram,

http://www.pmpml.org this is reference and source website for the article and " " " FVW9+9M Pune, Maharashtra" " " is the Plus Code for the same you can check it on Google Maps. Albert Deccan (talk) 08:58, 9 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Not every bus stop deserves an article. Wikipedia is WP:NOTYELLOWPAGE or an indiscriminate list of locations that exist. if there are reliable mainstream media talking in great detail about this subject, then you are welcome to add the sources and improve the article. Based on my search this is a run of the mill unimportant bus stop. Hence I have added a speedy deletion tag. --DBigXray 12:42, 9 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi, just a suggestion, but as a rule it's a good idea to leave the Intro/Lead of an article alone - it's generally been very well thought out, and is a distillation/summary of the "body" of the article.

So, do you first edits/additions to the body.

Secondly, use the "Sandbox" feature to test out editing. In particular, you should not "sign" your edits with "~"s - that's just for comments in the Talk pages.

BTW ("by the way"), those two paragraphs in your User:Albert Deccan page "look funny" because you have started them with a space.

All the best,

Hi , I had to revert you as this is not the right way to add images to wikipedia. I understand that you have noble intentions and I support your efforts. Please use Wikipedia:Files for upload for adding that image and other such images in future. regards. --DBigXray 15:22, 10 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
