Liance... Why do I need refrences on a list of wars,

edit

its a list why refrences? TuberGotTubed (talk) 18:14, 22 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

stand-alone lists are subject to Wikipedia's content policies and guidelines for articles, including verifiability and citing sources. For the previous draftification that I did, If you just want an index of wars in which the Guptas were involved, we already have the more appropriate Category:Wars involving the Gupta Empire; lists of wars of a country usually provide more information than just a link to that page, such as the victor, which needs sourcing.

  Hello, I'm Flemmish Nietzsche. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Mughal Empire, 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. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 11:58, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

In the page of the article itself, go to Name and see for yourself the official name.
I don't think I need to provide a source if it is already present in the article.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mughal_Empire#Name TuberGotTubed (talk) 12:00, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
It does not say the official name is Hindustan, rather it says that's "the closest to one there is"; it also doesn't include "empire"; just because it says it is likely the official name in the name section doesn't mean it should be included in the infobox header as absolute fact. You again need to provide you own sources, yes. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 12:08, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
it was called the "Dominion of Hindustan"
Mughal itself was never used by the empire TuberGotTubed (talk) 12:10, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Sikh empire, you may be blocked from editing. RegentsPark (comment) 12:03, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

i cited a source which was already cited in the article. So my source is wrong , but the same source used by someone else in the article is right?
Ranjit Singh was proclaimed as the Maharaja(King) of "Punjab" , his lands were called punjab. TuberGotTubed (talk) 12:06, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Mughal Empire. RegentsPark (comment) 12:07, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

I have added a source. The article section "name" is a source itself.
The Empire was called The Dominion of Hindustan , no idea what is so hard to fathom. TuberGotTubed (talk) 12:08, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
No, it is not a source itself. Read my previous comment, and in addition to that, just because a couple sources say that it is the "official name" doesn't mean it is prevalent in sources, which you must establish if you wish to put it in the infobox. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 12:10, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
ok i will find a proper source and cite it. TuberGotTubed (talk) 12:12, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
i added a source ,which was used before. TuberGotTubed (talk) 12:20, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Why was it changed now, I added a source TuberGotTubed (talk) 12:22, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
You need more than one, and need to establish that "Dominion of Hindustan" is the official name rather than "Empire" or "Sultanate". Please just go to the discussion on the talk page about the issue. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 12:22, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
then why don't you change it to "empire of hindustan"?
My edit was reverted when I used the term empire aswell TuberGotTubed (talk) 12:26, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
 

Your recent editing history at Mughal Empire shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. 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; read about 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 you 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 do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

All I did was add the official name used the empire
Wilāyat-i-Hindustān
Which means The Land of Hindustan
The Dominion of Hindustan
In all historical records from south and central Asia , it has been referred to as Hindustan Sultanate.
Mughal was never used by the empire TuberGotTubed (talk) 12:24, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
See the previous discussion on the talkpage on this topic. If you make any further disruptive edits without first obtaining consensus, you may be blocked from editing the article or from wikipedia. Abecedare (talk) 12:44, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Partition of India. Abecedare (talk) 15:04, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

It was previously also not sourced TuberGotTubed (talk) 15:12, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Read the article lead! And in any case that would not have been a license to just make stuff up and add it to the infobox. Abecedare (talk) 16:31, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
I did not make stuff up , read the article yourself too, scholars give an estimate of 1 million to 2 million deaths. TuberGotTubed (talk) 16:34, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Care to provide a quote from the article backing the 1-2 million range? Look, I am not seeking to pick on you but the cavalier attitude you have displayed so far at Mughal Empire and Partition of India towards representing what the article/sources actually say needs to stop before a topic-ban or block becomes necessary. My advice would be to slow down, concentrate on one of the many draft articles you have started, and try to build it up in compliance with wikipedia's policies (at the moment, the drafts are very poor but that's fine as a learning process). Cheers. Abecedare (talk) 17:06, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
i am not an troll,i was just trying to contribute.
Here is the quote estimation I was referring to :
  • The newly formed governments had not anticipated, and were completely unequipped for, a two-way migration of such staggering magnitude. Massive violence and slaughter occurred on both sides of the new India–Pakistan border. While estimates of the number of deaths vary greatly, ranging from 200,000 to 2,000,000, * TuberGotTubed (talk) 17:20, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
And I will try to finish up the draft I have started. TuberGotTubed (talk) 17:21, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
The scholars agree on a death of 1 million
While death estimates go up to 2 million TuberGotTubed (talk) 17:22, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
To complete your partial quote, While estimates of the number of deaths vary greatly, ranging from 200,000 to 2,000,000, most of the scholars accept approximately 1 million died in the partition violence. citing Roy, who says

Most scholars, using census figures, contemporary press reports, and eyewitness accounts, provide a range between 200,000 and 2 million (Menon and Bhasin 1998; Butalia 1998). Most scholars now accept that approximately 1 million people died from Partition-related violence.

I won't press the point any more. Abecedare (talk) 17:31, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Introduction to contentious topics

edit

You 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.
