List of converts to Islam

Thank you for your edit here to the above page, where you added Dharmendra however the page is not for those who have converted for reasons of marriage

taken from the top of the page :

The following is an incomplete list of notable people who converted to Islam from a different religion or no religion. This article addresses only past professions of faith by the individuals listed, and is not intended to address ethnic, cultural, or other considerations, such as marriage. Such cases are noted in their list entries.

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.

NPOV

edit
 

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit waron the page Ranveer Singh. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  1. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Barthateslisa (talk) 13:35, 5 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Comment

edit

You're bringing some great sources that could introduce some badly needed improvements, but the long quotations and close paraphrasing constitute WP:COPYVIO. If you take time to paraphrase the sources, I can help you with copyediting. However, an edit like this one suggests an unwillingness to collaborate in a responsive and courteous manner, and I'm tempted to simply alert one of our copyvio cleaners. In fact, you may soon hear from them anyway, since these additions are showing up in the copyvio monitoring tool. Eperoton (talk) 01:25, 15 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Ethnic descent

What are you trying to do with all of these edits? You seem to be trying to assert that people born in Hungary, who are also Jewish, should not be regarded as Hungarian. That's a really nasty project. Eleuther (talk) 11:48, 14 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Not just that. It's extremely poorly sourced, too. in Herman S. Bloch you cite "The Jewish lists: physicists and generals, actors and writers, and hundreds of other lists of accomplished Jews" and strangely enough, there's not a trace of that book to be found and Schocken books does not carry that title. Would you please explain that? Thanks. Kleuske (talk) 09:44, 16 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Block as non-responsive

edit

I think this editor should be blocked, since he is not responsive to comments on their talkpage. One more warning post here, and I will propose just that. Debresser (talk) 20:37, 16 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

  • It's true that he doesn't respond, either here or (as far as I've seen) on the talk pages of articles where his edits have been questioned. Is there a WP policy that would allow blocking him for that reason? If so, I would favor such a block. But maybe he's just autistic, unable to respond to people. Personally, I would prefer to block him instead based on the content of his edits, which all seem to be devoted to inserting a Jew vs. non-Jew distinction into articles. But I can't cite a WP policy for blocking him on that basis, either. Eleuther (talk) 14:14, 17 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
I have seen the argument that somebody is not responsive quoted in connection with WP:NOTHERE, to show that a person is not here to contribute to the project. Debresser (talk) 15:32, 17 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
My stance is this: If you're unresponsive and don't communicate (especially with the edit summary), then you're not really part of this project. Dawnseeker2000 00:28, 18 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

File:Young Asif Raza Mir.png

edit
 

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:10, 14 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for uploading File:Young Asif Raza Mir.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

  Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Doug Weller talk 17:15, 31 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Important Notice

edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Afzal Guru; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Kautilya3 (talk) 11:29, 16 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 hours for adding unsourced content despite many warnings, as you did at Zafar Ali Khan. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Doug Weller talk 10:55, 18 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Hi. I've been on this platform for around 10 years and made 100s of contributions (many I consider to be more than useful), at best I can understand a ban (even if I perhaps wrongly thought it was common knowledge found basically everywhere so didn't have to source it, I know I might be wrong now), but isn't an *indefinite* ban somehow too harsh ? Cheers.

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

  • the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
  • the block is no longer necessary because you
    1. understand what you have been blocked for,
    2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
    3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. 331dot (talk) 17:00, 22 May 2020 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

The BLP policy must be taken seriously, as violations potentially could put Wikipedia and editors in legal jeopardy. We must be certain that you understand the policy and what you did wrong before unblocking you. 331dot (talk) 17:01, 22 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

I'd accept an indefinite topic ban from BLPs, appealable in 6 months. Doug Weller talk 17:07, 22 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Arslan-San has a long history of POV pushing, nationalistic editing, and adding false information to articles that is unsourced. He was blocked by the sysop Doug Weller for this before too [1], but this behaviour has continued. Only a topic ban from India-Pakistan articles will suffice. Here is a list of the problematic edits:

It's too easy to throw in the nationalistic tags, do you call peoples White Supremacists that easily ? Do you know that Indian/Pakistan nationalists nearly exclusively refer to few subjects like the Kashmir dispute or wars between these nations ? How is that representative of my editing history since +10 years ? Anyway, I'll respond to your accusations one by one :
  • Artlan-San adds a section on Pakistan to Traditionalist School, with one paragraph being sourced to a personal blog and the other not having any reference. [2]
The "personal blog" was quoting a direct student of Guénon on the issue, while "the other" didn't have any reference because the page it was redirected to was itself referenced.
  • Arslan-San removes citations and adds his own material to the article on Geert Wilders. [3]
I didn't "remove" anything, I brought an additional information.
  • Arlsan-San’s additions are removed by experienced editors for being uncited. [4]
If you follow the thread you'd see the "experienced editor" finally agreed with me, but brought his own ways of adding the info.
You're perhaps not aware of South Asian dynamics, but I didn't have to source it as it's implied, that's like saying that you have to source that someone born
  • Arslan-San adds material that isn’t even contained in the sources he cites and is reverted by more experienced editors for doing so. [6]
It was all sourced in the references given.
  • Arslan-San adds uncited material to the article about Riaz Basra. [7]
It was sourced in the previous reference.
I was the one who added it at first but then didn't find a verified source on it.
  • Arslan-San adds to the article "although rape is not legally allowed, it is a fact that a woman likes a man who is very expert at rape" or that "generally when a woman is attacked by a man—whether her husband or some other man—she enjoys the attack, being too lusty." [9]
In a book on the Hare Krishna movement one of the main criticisms of the figure is that, the fact that it has been taken out is the controversial measure.
  • Arslan-San removes a perfectly cited category, with an edit summary saying “that’s a very precise category; the article didn’t mention him criticizing feminism itself”. [10]
There was an idea of him being anti-feminist and peoples still believe it, that's why I added it then accepted my error when found out he doesn't consider himself as such.
  • Arslan-San adds into the article about Afzal Guru “who said that Afzal wrote it in 2010 but couldn't find a publisher” without a citation. [11]
That's literally in the article quoted.
  • Arslan-San adds nationalistic material to the article that isn’t in the citation he included. [12]
How is that "nationalistic" ? It pertains to religious history, and If you go through the citation this information is there (I didn't quote the page because I have a Kindle version).
Because the link referred to (Aatish Raj) contains this information...
If you follow the edit history you'll see that I provided the sources and that "experienced editors" accepted it.
I literally quoted the source (Ghuman's profile on WorldCat).
  • Arslan-San changes the birthplace of Muhammad Abdul Aleem Siddiqi from his actual birthplace from Meerut, India to Pakistan and removed the category for Indian Muslims. [16]
I didn't change the birthplace, I added it in his biography, and if you're a scholar from Pakistan you can't be an Indian Muslim as you can't possess both nationalities.
  • Arslan-San changes Indian subcontinent to Pakistan, despite the fact that much of Abul A'la Maududi’s career was spent in both India and Pakistan. [17]
Have you heard of nationalities ? I mean, would you say "Einstein was a scientist from Western Europe" or from Germany ? Who described a *modern* individual by his *region*... ?
  • Arslan-San changes the birthplace of a South Asian Islamic scholar from British India to Pakistan. [18]
Same thing : when Mawdudi died British India was no more operative for few decades.
  • Arslan-San changes the birthplace of Rajkumar Hirani’s ancestors from British India to Pakistan, without a citation. [19]
If you do read the article I referenced, Hirani himself talks of Pakistan, that's why I precised that these areas are *NOW* in Pakistan.
Again : if you died as a Pakistani citizen you're NOT an Indian citizen, because both citizenship are mutually exclusive... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Knox490 (talkcontribs)
Thanks. As I gave him a DS alert earlier, I can topic ban him from the area. But I don't have time today. Doug Weller talk 17:49, 22 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

After contemplating for few months I've finally identified my errors (feeble sources for living persons and some edit wars for petty reasons), and I think that if I do get unblocked I could help this platform to be less biased, precisely on matters pertaining to nationalism in the Southn Asian region and also matters pertaining to philosophy (in general) and to the religion of Islam (in particular), as I tried to do faithfully for more than 10 years. But the whole edits on living persons I'll try to stop it unless I have the credible sources required. Cheers.  Arslan-San (talk) 23:21, 19 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Non-admin question: Can you explain in your own words what makes a source reliable in the context of articles about living people? SQLQuery me! 03:17, 28 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
Arslan-San's edits in the area of India-Pakistan are just as problematic as his BLP violations. The user has added revisionist history to articles to push nationalism on Wikipedia. The list of edits I share above demonstrate this.[21] If this user's request to be unblocked is granted, a topic ban should be put in place, as mentioned by Doug Weller.
