Please use edit-summaries when you edit WP-articles to help other editors understand what you are doing. This decreases the chance that someone will revert you with a comment like "Reverting unexplained changes." Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 15:57, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
Your edits to Australia article
editHello there You recently added the following sentence to this article, "It is uncertain how many waves of immigration may have contributed to these ancestors of modern Aboriginal Australians." However, the two sources you added both state that there is no evidence of separate waves of migration by different peoples. If you would like to discuss your proposed addition please open a discussion of the topic on the Australin talk page. Aemilius Adolphin (talk) 23:00, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

editThank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Abraham. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 21:38, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
Jews in Australia
editHello there
I reverted your edit stating that Australia has the largest number of Jews in Oceania because it isn't noteworthy. Australia is by far the largest country in Oceania so it is likely that Australia also has the largest number of muslims, Anglicans, Catholics, cars, shopping malls, libraries etc etc. If you really wish to include the statement please take it to the Article talk page and seek consensus.

Edit summaries
editWhen you edit WP-articles, please use Help:Edit summary to help other editors understand what you are doing. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 13:16, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
And I see now I asked you to do that in February. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 13:18, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

editHi Khassanu! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Armenia that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Thank you. ... sawyer * he/they * talk 05:46, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
- also, please use edit summaries, as other editors have kindly asked you to. thanks ... sawyer * he/they * talk 05:47, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
Continued inaccurate use of "minor"
editHi Khassanu! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been.

- You have already been informed about this, so it is concerning that you continue. If you do not know what a minor edit on Wikipedia means, do not mark edits as minor. Jeppiz (talk) 16:09, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
Edit war Warning: Tawrat and Injil
editI'm gonna take it simply that you didn't read the whole revert, Undid revision 1245848533. All three, Tawrat, Zabur, and Injil have proper in line source citations for Torah, Psalms, Gospels and they have fully formed wiki articles which are sourced and agree with those citations.
I get that you may side with a source(s) that disagrees with those beliefs but you don't unilaterally change them. We change the content and context of highly contentious material by consensus. So something like this, we start in the Talk page.
I am gonna revert one more time, if you feel so strongly about this differing view, bring this view into the talk page for discussion WP:TPG, use sources and make your argument.
Failing to go through the proper steps and simply changing fully formed, cited, and wiki page items can be seen as vandalism.
Please go through the proper steps. RCSCott91 (talk) 18:17, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

- Islam Revision as of 18:51, 16 September 2024 revision summary "The parentheses are wrong. It was you who made the change, so it is you who should move your requests to the talk page. Tawrat can be identified as entire Hebrew Bible, but the Torah is shown in parentheses. The word Torah can also mean the the Hebrew Bible also. Same as Gospel."
- Response:
- - If the citations are wrong and by extension the entire sourced wiki articles, you should bring sources and make that argument in talk page. Not unilaterally change it without even offering a source other than your personal authority.
- - I have not edited those parts nor have I edited their respective wiki articles, you can check that with the edit logs before you make accusations.
- - The onesnness to provide sources and argument to change a contentious thing relies on the one who wishes to make the change not the one who wishes to keep things that are already sourced thru 3 fully formed wiki articles.
- - If you think Tawrat should be referenced as the Tanakh, which includes both the Allah given Torah and man given writings, then provide sources and make that argument in the talk page.
- - The word Torah means the first 5 books of the tanakh given to Moses PBUH from Allah. You are confusing it with tanakh which is synonymous with Hebrew Bible and includes the Torah.
- - Gospel refers to the 4 Christian texts about Jesus PBUH's life. The new testament includes a ton of other books which comprise the new testament and in many cases are irrelevant to the teachings of The Prophet.
Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion
editHello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. RCSCott91 (talk) 23:00, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Judaism, did not appear to be constructive and have 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 your 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. voorts (talk/contributions) 22:57, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I'm Voorts. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Judaism, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. voorts (talk/contributions) 22:57, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
- I don't think I added anything that required a reference. I just changed the origin zone from Judah to Land of Israel (both Israel & Judah). In terms of Jewish tradition, both Abraham and Moses have founding characteristics, so there is no problem with the writing "Abraham (Covenant of the pieces) & Moses (Mosaic covenant and law)". There is no debate that Judaism is "one of the oldest monotheistic religions". Khassanu (talk) 14:29, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Northern Moonlight 00:11, 20 September 2024 (UTC)
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did at Buddhism, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you.

Introduction to contentious topics
editYou have recently edited a page related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
Kurdistan Region official languages
editHello. You have recently made an edit on the Kurdistan Region article where you removed Arabic from the list official languages and added a new list titled “official correspondence languages” and added as the source “constitution article 7ii”. Are you aware of the fact that what you sourced is not the regional constitution in effect today? What you sourced is a draft constitution that never came into effect because it was not ratified by the regional parliament, rather, a different constitution that does not include what you mentioned was ratified by the regional parliament in 2009 which is the official constitution of KRI today. In that ratified constitution in effect today (in article 14) it clearly and unambiguously states that Kurdish and Arabic are the two official languages of the Kurdistan Region and no mention of “official correspondence languages” is made.
