May 2023

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in M3 Stuart, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Please beware of the overlinking of common terms per WP:OLINK. "An article is said to be overlinked if it contains an excessive number of links, making it difficult to identify those likely to aid a reader's understanding... The names of subjects with which most readers will be at least somewhat familiar. This generally includes major examples of: countries (e.g., Japan/Japanese, Brazil/Brazilian)."

Disambiguation link notification for July 20

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Vada pav, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Burger. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Seahawk-2023! Your additions to Fortification have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 14:27, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from God in Sikhism into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 22:11, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

January 2024

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In your recent edit to Red Dead Redemption, you added links to an article which did not add content or meaning, or repeated the same link several times throughout the article. Please see Wikipedia's guideline on links to avoid overlinking. Thank you. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 20:26, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Seahawk-2023, you've been asked before to stop unnecessary WP:OVERLINKing. Before you add a wikilink, ask yourself: does the general reader need a link to another article to understand the information presented to them? If the answers is no, please do not add another link. Take a look at the nine edits you made to the article on Red Dead Revolver. This is not helping at all: to understand Red Dead Revolver, we do not need to link to General (Mexico), which is an article about the real-world military position in the sovereign country of Mexico. It has nothing to do with the game. Same goes for real-world weapons. To grasp the concept of gameplay in Red Dead Redemption, a link to, say, explosive is unnecessary. Please take this words to heart. I have no interest in reverting your edits. It's a waste of your time and my time. Thanks, and happy editing. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 20:33, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution (second request)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Patit into Apostasy.

March 2024

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Banda Singh Bahadur, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. There's no source which states her name had "Kaur" in it.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Lohgarh (Bilaspur) into First Sikh State.

When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution.

Hello, I'm Kautilya3. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Mleccha, 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. Kautilya3 (talk) 13:44, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

May 2024

Hello, I'm Rahio1234. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Bhai Gurdas seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Rahio 1234 07:24, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Bhai Gurdas. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Rahio 1234 07:26, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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! Chariotrider555 (talk)

Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Prithvi (missile).

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 Mafia (video game), 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. I see your tendency to unnecessarily WP:OVERLINK continues unabated. You've been asked several times stop this. Now you're also making WP:EASTEREGG links. Making a wikilink of "two hitmen" to Mafia II is inappropriate, and there is already a footnote explaining it. Please stop adding it in. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 16:00, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

August 2024

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that your recent edit to Umayyad campaigns in India did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary (or the default undo summary), and then click the "Save" button.

Thanks! Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 15:59, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Mughal Empire. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. 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.

Points to note:

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 and 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. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 16:07, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Flemmish Nietzsche, I've left Seahawk-2023 messages and warnings before. I have no desire to see them being blocked, but they haven't communicated whatsoever. If their behaviour continues, I am thinking an ANI discussion is the best option. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 17:43, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that ANI is the best option, if not right now. A user which never uses edit summaries and hasn't once participated in a talk discussion is prone to eventually cause more harm than good. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 17:47, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Flemmish Nietzsche - I am certain that Seahawk-2023 is also editing using an IP range that starts with 49, see: [1] - their edits on the IPs (see: [2] and [3]) have been quite problematic, I have had to revert many of them due to different reasons. If Seahawk is banned, please consider banning this IP range as well. MaplesyrupSushi (talk) 22:21, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Dabuyid dynasty, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. HistoryofIran (talk) 21:13, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:Samrat

Hello, Seahawk-2023. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Samrat, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.
