Jallikattu

Hi there, re: your recent edits at Jallikattu, though I know you meant well, I've reverted your edits for a few reasons, including that the content was unsourced, it was not added to the article in a place or places where it was intuitive to do so, and there were grammatical and typographical errors. If you need help, you might consider opening a discussion on the article's talk page. Thanks, and it's nothing personal. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 13:41, 25 April 2017 (UTC)

Re: this, parentheticals are not the ideal way to introduce content into articles, as they are often misused and included as an afterthought. In this case, it's unclear what you are trying to express, and the inclusion of a blog is not helpful, since we don't consider blogs to be valid references generally, since anyone can start a blog and say whatever they want. We only care what reliable published sources with established reputations for fact-checking and accuracy have to say about anything. Thanks, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 02:22, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

Uh, hate to say it but also this edit is problematic because your image formatting doesn't work, and you got rid of the References section and replaced it with an unsourced editorial. You can't do that. And re: this, you need to be aware that anything related to India or Indian castes or Pakistan or Afghanistan are considered highly sensitive topics that require immaculate sourcing, and that require editors to engage in discussion before committing anything as indisputable fact in articles. Note that these topic areas are subject to administrative sanctions, meaning that if administrators (such as myself) feel that you're adding poorly-sourced content or furthering some sort of agenda, we can quickly deprive editors of their editing privileges to prevent disruptions from escalating at these articles. I strongly advise you to open discussions on article talk pages and seek consensus before making bold changes in these subject areas, and note that poorly-sourced or improperly sourced content will be reverted, and can result in sanctions. See our reliable sources guidelines for an explanation of what sort of references may be used. Thanks, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 02:37, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

It's ok I'll correct it next time. Kanna000003 (talk) 12:20, 7 May 2017 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Maveeran Alagumuthu Kone.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Maveeran Alagumuthu Kone.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Majora (talk) 19:32, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
