Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Ethnic Malays may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it.

Hi, You edited the History of India page today, without writing an edit summary. Can you please include descriptive summaries of your edits so that people monitoring the page have a clear idea what you are trying to do? Thanks, Kautilya3 (talk) 10:27, 22 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for January 1

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited History of Indonesia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tamil. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

April 2015

Hello, I'm Magioladitis. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Chola dynasty because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Magioladitis (talk) 19:32, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please desist from adding the T. Rataan book to this article. It is a useless source, published by a useless company. User:Sitush/Common#Gyan gives some background to the general situation. Thanks. - Sitush (talk) 12:46, 18 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Bahmani Sultanate collapsed?

Dear Takafumi, I notice that you have made a number of edits to various pages claiming that the Krisha Deva Raya's conquering of the Bahmanis led to the "collapse" of the Bahmani power, citing p. 88 of Richard Eaton's book. For example, [1]. However, I do not find this expression in Eaton, and it seems to be synthesis. Do you have an explanation for this? (Pinging Ghatus for his historical expertise.) - Kautilya3 (talk) 13:21, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Kautilya3:,@Takafumi1: Bahmani collapsed because,

Death of Mahmud Gawan.
Split in the nobility.( Native Group vs Foreigners)
Rise of independent rulers.
Defeat at the hand of Krishna Deva Raya.
Incompetent Sultan like Mahmud Shah.

All points are equally important. :-) Ghatus (talk) 05:07, 22 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, but my problem is that the term "collapsed" doesn't occur in the source. The fact that the Sultanate split up into five independent pieces, with each of them continuing to be strong and one of them coming back to get Vijayanagara in the end, doesn't convey "collapse." I don't believe that this term can be used unless it occurs in some source. Otherwise it would be synthesis and OR. - Kautilya3 (talk) 08:07, 22 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Fall/Split to pieces/Collapsed/Destroyed are commonly used interchangeably, though academically each term has different meaning. I thought you were asking the reasons, not the actual academic term. BTW, the perfect term is "The Fall of Bahmani Kingdom". It covers everything.Ghatus (talk) 09:29, 22 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

November 2015

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Raja Raja Chola I. Your edits have been or will be reverted or removed.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. Cpt.a.haddock (talk) (please ping when replying) 21:55, 7 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Reliable sources

Hi, I suggest that you hold off on adding random books from a Google Books search as references. Please read through WP:HISTRS before you add anything to Raja Raja Chola as most of what you are adding are not considered reliable sources. Please also try and properly structure any references that you add so that they include a URL and/or an ISBN reference to the resource.--Cpt.a.haddock (talk) (please ping when replying) 20:13, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. 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.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

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; 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. --Kansas Bear (talk) 17:12, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

October 2016

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Chola dynasty, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. Cpt.a.haddock (talk) (please ping when replying) 21:21, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
