{{subst:uw-vandal3| | It was clearly explained, above, that you should '''not''' add Indic script to our articles, but have continued to do so, please '''stop'''.}} - ~~~~

==Placenames==
[[File:Information orange.svg|25px|alt=Information icon|link=]] Please '''stop''' changing the names of places in our articles, to different names to those used as our article titles, as you did at [[ ]]. We use the "[[WP:COMMONNAME|Common names]]" in English for our articles, '''not''' the "[[WP:Official names|Official names]]", so changing the name breaks internal links to those articles, and is confusing to our readers - thank you -- ~~~~

[[File:Nuvola apps important.svg|25px|alt=Warning icon]] Please stop. If you continue to [[Wikipedia:Vandalism|vandalize]] Wikipedia, as you did at [[ ]], you may be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]. It was clearly explained, above, that you should '''not''' change the names of places in our articles, to different names to those used as our article titles, but you have continued doing so. Please '''stop''' - ~~~~

:{{Not done}} - We use the [[WP:COMMONNAME|Common names]] in English for our articles, not the "[[WP:Official names|Official names]]", as changing the name breaks internal links to those articles, and is confusing to our readers: Bangalore was renamed Bengalūru, as the city's official name in 2006, but we still use Bangalore. As a longer standing example, [[Wien]] has been the [[WP:Official names|official name]] of the capital of [[Österreich]] (another [[WP:Official names|official name]]) for hundreds of years, but we won't be changing either name in the foreseeable future - ~~~~

==Cast names in film plots==
[[File:Information orange.svg|25px|alt=Information icon|link=]] - Please do NOT add actors' names in the plot, as you did at [[ ]], [[ ]] and several other articles, since this is contrary to [[WP:FILMPLOT]] "Do not include actors' names in the plot summary" - Thank you - ~~~~

{{subst:uw-unsourced1| | Wikipedia is not interested in what you "know", only what has been published in [[WP:reliable sources|]], which must be [[WP:Citing sources|cited]] so readers can [[WP:Verifiability|verify]] that the information is true}} - ~~~~

=== Conversion templates ===
[[File:Information orange.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] - Please do not add conversion templates to the infoboxes of Indian films, as this is contrary to the consensus at [[WP:ICTF]] - Thank you - ~~~~

== Links to user pages and sandboxes ==
[[File:Information orange.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Please do '''not''' introduce [[WP:LINK|links]] in actual articles to [[WP:User pages|user pages]] or [[WP:Sandbox|sandboxes]], as you did at [[ ]]. Since these pages have not been accepted as articles, user pages, sandboxes and drafts are not suitable for linking in articles. and such links are contrary to the [[MOS:DRAFTNOLINK|Manual of Style]]. These links have been deleted, please do not re-add any such links, thank you - ~~~~

Honorifics

Please do not add honorifics to our articles, as you did at [[ ]], as this contravenes [[MOS:PBUH]]. Please see [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Islam-related articles]] for the full details of what should not be added - thank you - ~~~~

==Names of children==
Please '''stop''' adding the names of children, and other non-notable family members to our articles. This is covered in [[WP:BLPNAME]] "The presumption in favor of privacy is strong in the case of family members" and "names of family members who are not also notable public figures ''must'' be removed from an article". In the case of children, the omission of names also helps [[Child protection]] - Thank you - ~~~~

:And what [[WP:reliable sources|reliable sources]] have you based that statement on? - ~~~~

As per [[Template:Infobox military conflict]], do not use "non-standard terms like "decisive", "marginal" or "tactical"" in infoboxes,

Discretionary sanctions alert see Template:Ds/alert for use and codes - for Indo-Pak use {{subst:Ds/alert|ipa|- ~~~~}}

{{frac|1|2}} or {{1/2}} also works for thirds and quarters {{frac|2|1|2}}-year gives 2+1⁄2-year

WP:2DABS Even if only 2 articles with similar names, if no primary topic, then that term needs to lead to a disambiguation page.

[[WP:QUOTE]] "any alterations must be clearly marked ... Exceptions are trivial spelling or typographical errors that obviously do not affect the intended meaning"

This article is about a British band and the article is written in British English, which uses the plural for "nouns of multitude". Please see [[Comparison of American and British English#Formal and notional agreement]] for a fuller explanation.

The very first section of [[WP:ENGVAR]] is [[WP:COMMONALITY]] "Wikipedia tries to find words that are common to all varieties of English." If XXX was the '''only''' acceptable word in XXX, then under ENGVAR, that should be used on relevant articles. However, as there is a word "common to all varieties of English" then COMMONALITY requires that it is used, even if other spellings exist

When using {{outdent}} include the number of colons the last post had. If it was 4 (::::), use {{outdent|::::}} or {{outdent|4}}. This connects the line to the previous post.

CTRL++ will increase the font size, CTRL+- will reduce it and CTRL+0 (zero) will return it to 'normal' size.

School song - - Rm as [[WP:WPSCH/AG#WNTI]] - Do not include "The lyrics of the school song (or school anthem)"

== Forced image sizes ==
[[File:Nuvola apps important.svg|25px|alt=Warning icon]] Please '''stop''' adding forced image sizes to articles, as you keep doing at [[ XXXX ]]. As it clearly states at [[WP:IMAGESIZE]] '''Except with very good reason, do not use''' <code>px</code> (e.g. <code>|thumb|300px</code>), '''which forces a fixed image width measured in pixels, disregarding the user's image size preference setting.''' The bold is in the guideline, not something I have added. - ~~~~

== Muhammad ==

[[File:Information orange.svg|25px|alt=Information icon|link=]] Please note that [[WP:Wikipedia is not censored|]] so we show images of Muhammad. This has been discussed at great length, and will NOT be changed. If YOU do not want to see such images, please follow the instructions at FAQ 3 on [[Talk:Muhammad]] - Thank you - ~~~~

WikiGnome

Hi - I am a little WikiGnome, who goes around tidying up spelling mistakes especially words beginning with R. I have learnt a lot about XXXX, changing "Retreived" (ei) to Retrieved (ie).
I know how easy it is to copy and paste one mistake into numerous articles - but could you please correct this spelling before adding it to any more articles? Thanks

Flags in infoboxes

Hello, I am a little [[WP:WikiGnome]], who goes around tidying things up. I notice that you have been adding a lot of flag icons into infoboxes. The policy on this is [[WP:Manual_of_Style/Icons#Avoid_flag_icons_in_infoboxes]] which says that "flag icons should not be used in infoboxes, even when there is a "country", "nationality" or equivalent field". I have removed those flags that I have found, but it would help me if you did not add any more. Thanks ~~~~
