Thetruth
Welcome, newcomer!
Here are some useful tips to ease you into the Wikipedia experience:
- First, take a look at the Wikipedia Tutorial, and perhaps dabble a bit in the test area.
- When you have some free time, take a look at the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines. They can come in very handy!
- Remember to use a neutral point of view!
- If you need any help, feel free to post a question at the Help Desk
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Also, here are some odds and ends that I find useful from time to time:
- Wikipedia:Policy Library
- Wikipedia:Utilities
- Wikipedia:Cite your sources
- Wikipedia:Verifiability
- Wikipedia:Wikiquette
- Wikipedia:Civility
- Wikipedia:Conflict resolution
- Wikipedia:Brilliant prose
- Wikipedia:Pages needing attention
- Wikipedia:Peer review
- Wikipedia:Bad jokes and other deleted nonsense
- Wikipedia:Village pump
- Wikipedia:Boilerplate text
Feel free to ask me anything the links and talk pages don't answer. You can most easily reach me by posting on my talk page.
You can sign your name on any page by typing 4 tildes, likes this: ~~~~.
Best of luck, and have fun!

Hi, Please contribute in Pakistan:Talk where discussion is going on about whether to include reference to pakistani support to terrorism or not. King1 08:24, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Edits reverted
editI've taken a look at your contributions to wikipedia. You claim to be a "fan" and to have made "many contributions". However, your contributions show that your changes are mainly POV, and that you have only contributed from June 12th of this month. Furthermore those changes were to the Khalistan article, and you're currently adamant about reverting the article to a POV version. Please - wikipedia is not a place for you to further your views. --Vivin Paliath (വിവിന് പാലിയത്) 17:35, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Aurangzeb
editHi, Would you take a look at Aurangzeb? Sikh sacrifices deserve mention there. IndiBoy 09:20, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Talk:Military of Pakistan
editWould you be interested in discussions on this (Talk:Military of Pakistan) particular page?--PrinceA 00:09, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Khalistan Article Review
editI've reviewed the Khalistan article and the reasons for my changes are listed on the talk page. Please review them. If you have a problem with anything I've done, please comment on the talk page BEFORE going to edit the page. Sukh 19:04, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Rather than trying to come to some sort of agreement about your changes - some of which may be valid - you went ahead and reverted the page to what it used to be. I was trying to compromise and you certainly don't seem able to do the same. If you continue to make such changes *without* discussing each and every controversial point on the talk page, I will get the page locked. That means neither you or I will be able to edit it until the dispute is resolved.
- Please be more grown up about this. You can have a discussion on the talk page and voice your concerns but you seem intent on pasting tonnes of junk into the article. I'm not saying your additions are not valid, but carrying on making the changes like you are doing will ultimately make it harder for YOU to have your say. Sukh 20:29, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
I have requested arbitration

Unspecified source for Image:Bhatia.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Bhatia.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 00:25, 25 February 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 00:25, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
