Help me to improve an article related India and its geography

Manimajra was renamed as sector 13 legally by UT government of Chandigarh in January 2020 and by February 2020 the new name was finally declared to be written everywhere on papers. Below are links to the decision:- 1). https://m.timesofindia.com/city/chandigarh/manimajra-to-be-renamed-sector-13-residents-elated/amp_articleshow/73114749.cms .

2). https://www.hindustantimes.com/chandigarh/chandigarh-s-manimajra-is-now-sector-13/story-ploFPCA4UGpDu9ksUxLtdL.html

Being a Indian resident, i would like to contribute to this new law which was passed by our government .

It is true that the proposal had been initially opposed in december 2019. In the initial proposal, names like Sector M or Sector 26 east were proposed. Here is the link for initial proposals made :-

4)https://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-chandigarh-to-finally-get-sector-13-after-54-years-of-formation-2813378

 (these articles were published in newspapers in 2019 which is old).

5)https://m.tribuneindia.com/news/archive/chandigarh/mani-majra-to-be-sector-m-863728 (This link i provided over here was published in Tribune India in November 2019 )

But soon the final decision was made which overruled the previous proposals and finally the new name for manimajra was concluded as sector 13 by the beginning of 2020. The next link (6th Link) was also published in Tribune India with the final decision which was declared in February 2020 :-

Welcome!

Hello, AnomalousAtom, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, your edit to Water conflict does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Questions page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

You cannot simply copy content from one page to another without regard to WP:DUE and WP:WEIGHT. Please consult the reliable sources covering that particular topic to determine how much WEIGHT should be given and in what form. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 07:59, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

User:Kautilya3 Okay. It is a notable water conflict though. It should be mentioned in some form. How about a very short mention? < Atom (Anomalies) 08:01, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

Yes, it is, but not in the form you added content to that page. The 1948 event was an outcome of the Partition of India and not a genuine "water conflict" in itself. But you never even bothered to mention the Partition. To know how to treat the subject in that context, you need to consult the reliable sources on water conflict and see how they do it. Making up your own content amounts to WP:OR even if it is verifiable because the WEIGHT and context may be entirely wrong. There is no way to write Wikipedia content without actually reading sources for yourself. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 08:13, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

No I understand that, but I mean it was certainly a dispute over water rights, i.e. a water conflict. I reworded the paragraph so it is short and states that the dispute occurred as a fact. I did not make up any of the content in that paragraph.

I do not know if you intend to sound aggressive right now, but that is how it sounds right now. All that I wrote in water conflict right now is "In 1948, India and Pakistan had a dispute over the sharing of water rights to the Indus River and its tributaries. An agreement was reached after five weeks and the dispute was followed by the signing of the Indus Waters Treaty in 1960." This is not against WP:OR or WP:WEIGHT. If you want to add content about the partition then add it there and to Indo-Pakistani water dispute of 1948. < Atom (Anomalies) 08:17, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

Template query

Hello! You added the section Wikipedia talk:WikiProject China § Merger proposal:Dêmqog, Ngari Prefecture. It uses a template, which as you can see, has a bug: it causes the next section heading to be indented, when section headings should usually not be on talk pages. Using the search function, I have not been able to find the template. What is its name? Best, Psiĥedelisto (talk • contribs) ^{please always ping!} 02:49, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

User:Psiĥedelisto What do you mean? I did not use a template in my message there and I thought that talk sections should always have sections? Everyone uses sections on talk pages for new discussions. < Atom (Anomalies) 01:44, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

@AnomalousAtom: Right, but talk page section headings should not be indented. Thank you for explaining, I asked one other Wikipedian as well and was able to work out how to solve the issue. See User talk:Cavalryman. Thanks for your time. Psiĥedelisto (talk • contribs) ^{please always ping!} 16:27, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

User:Psiĥedelisto I still do not know what you mean, because it does not look to me like I caused any talk page section headings to be indented. Which section heading appears indented for you? < Atom (Anomalies) 07:40, 22 July 2020 (UTC)

@AnomalousAtom: In discussing it with Cavalryman I discovered the issue only happens with the MonoBook skin. So, most people won't see it. Psiĥedelisto (talk • contribs) ^{please always ping!} 17:35, 22 July 2020 (UTC)

User:Psiĥedelisto Understood, thank you for the explanation. Is it the image File:Merge-arrows.svg? < Atom (Anomalies) 21:15, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
