Your userpage

edit

Hi KA$HMIR. Although you did indeed email me to advise that this was not your first account, you did not disclose your original account - in essence, you provided no more information to me than you have currently posted on your userpage. As I explained in my reply, I therefore have no way of knowing whether this new account is legitimate or not, since I do not know whether your previous account was under sanctions at the time you abandoned it. I would therefore appreciate it it if you would remove the claim that I have given you "permission" to edit from this account, since I have not done so. This may be a completely valid clean start or it may not; I currently do not know either way. Yunshui  07:35, 16 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

  There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is User:KA$HMIR. Marvellous Spider-Man 05:10, 19 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

I have temporarily blocked this account due to original account being undisclosed. As improper use of multiple accounts are not permitted, this account should not resume editing until such disclosure takes place. Please follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Clean start if you are planning to make a legitimate clean start. Regards, Alex ShihTalk 06:51, 19 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
KA$HMIR has now disclosed their former account to me via email. Having investigated, I believe their claim is true, and that this account is a legitimate alternative account used for privacy reasons, in line with the policy. Their previous account was not under any sanctions, and they have not edited any of the same pages. I'm therefore removing the block. KA$HMIR, please do bear in mind that such accounts can still be blocked for violations of the multiple accounts policy, so please be careful with your editing.

  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Kashmiris. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and 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 Wikipedia. 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. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. —MBlaze Lightning T 06:48, 27 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Note

edit
This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Kashmir conflict, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made, reduces edit conflicts, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.

 
The "show preview" button is right next to the "save page" button and below the edit summary field.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Your edits were completely clobbered. Please take care to preview and proof read them before committing changes. Kautilya3 (talk) 23:10, 10 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war on Talk:Kashmir conflict. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

  Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to 1947 Poonch Rebellion, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. -- 🎼Yexstorm2001🎼 (talk) 17:15, 19 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at 1947 Poonch Rebellion. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. -- 🎼Yexstorm2001🎼 (talk) 17:21, 19 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

To enforce an arbitration decision and for edit warring, you have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week. You are welcome to edit once the block expires; however, please note that the repetition of similar behavior may result in a longer block or other sanctions.

If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the [[WP:AE|arbitration enforcement noticeboard]] or [[WP:AN|administrators' noticeboard]]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page. GoldenRing (talk) 11:04, 4 January 2018 (UTC)Reply


Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."

Hello, KA$HMIR. :)

First, I want to thank you for taking the time to repair the copyright problem at History of Balochistan. So often, articles are left in worse shape because we have to remove this content and people with interest or expertise in an area don't appear to revise the content. User:Justlettersandnumbers has reviewed the issue and marked it as resolved.

I do want to let you know, though, that there's a way to do this within policy. You may not have noticed, but the template that covered the page included instructions for how to do the rewrite in a subpage. Only administrators and copyright clerks are supposed to remove the copyright template from the page itself. This is to keep us from publishing even briefly content that we know to be a copyright problem or content that may have been rewritten but has not yet reviewed.

I hope that you if you encounter further copyright issues in areas of interest to you that you will help out again by writing content that we can keep. Do, please, do it in the proper subpage, though. If you look at the template itself, at Template:Copyvio/core, you can see where this is done. You go about halfway down to where it says, "Can you help resolve this issue?" In the bottom of that section, it says, "Otherwise, you may write a new article without copyright-infringing material. Click "Show" to read where and how." If you click there, you'll get a link to the place where the rewrite should be done. :) Each page under investigation has its own subpage where content can be written fresh. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 00:16, 1 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Sorry I had been quite busy and had not seen this earlier. Thanks for the heads up. I will definitely keep this in mind for next time :) KA$HMIR (talk) 20:16, 13 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Your contributed article, Islam In South Asia

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Islam In South Asia. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Islam in India. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Islam in India. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Kautilya3 (talk) 06:17, 28 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
