why dont you point anything that seems agenda. IM simply stating PLAIN NEUTRAL FACTS in the page without 30-100 years of crap history on that page. Why dont you tell what seems to be agenda on that page you damn bugger
Explain me this ?
The Northern Province (Tamil: வட மாகாணம் Vaṭakku Mākāṇam; Sinhalese: උතුරු පළාත Uturu Paḷāta) is one of the nine provinces of Sri Lanka, the first level administrative division of the country. The provinces have existed since the 19th century but did not have any legal status until 1987 when the 13th Amendment to the Constitution of Sri Lanka established provincial councils.[4][5] Between 1988 and 2006 the province was temporarily merged with the Eastern Province to form the North Eastern Province. The capital of the province is Jaffna. The majority of the Sri Lankan Civil War was played out and had its roots in this province.
why is there so much of unnecessaty stuff in that. like the province existed since 19th century. in fact it existed those very similar border lines since cholan times. why are you pulling in the 13th amendment that guaranteed devolution. . lol jst kidding. . again just kidding. so Xplain me nangi ? sri lankan civil was a national problem maybe the roots from a particular town in the province but its a national problem. so i dont want all this crap on the page. NO tamils care about this stuff anymore..
No personal attacks
editPlease do not attack other editors. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Jim1138 (talk) 10:30, 5 January 2016 (UTC)
Bullock Carts
editAdding references is how we ensure that content is correct. Without references, there is no presumption of accuracy. So that content can be wp:verified, you should wp:cite wp:reliable sources (RS) with your edits. Claiming to know is considered wp:original research (OR) and is not considered an RS.
If you want to remove the bullock carts mention, you should cite an RS on transportation which shows statistics. Jim1138 (talk) 10:30, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

This is your final warning. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Northern Province, Sri Lanka with this edit, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Dat GuyTalkContribs 18:15, 16 January 2016 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Northern Province, Sri Lanka. 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:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- 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. Jim1138 (talk) 06:31, 17 January 2016 (UTC)
