About 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag' controversy
Thanks for the wikipedia link. I read the link, as it mentions as following - A primary source may only be used on Wikipedia to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the source but without further, specialized knowledge.
What I felt after reading this is, the page referred to matter is directly a primary source where above conditions are met. What is your opinion ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1Gmailer (talk • contribs) 14:38, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Samsung galaxy star
Hello Abhijeet Safai,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Samsung galaxy star for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Lgcsmasamiya (talk) 13:53, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

Greetings Abhijeet Safai. Thanks for your note. It's precisely the paragraph you removed (and then restored) just after I added the "tone" tag that needs work on. That kind of language may be used if it as actual quotes, and punctuated as such, from secondary sources, i.e. notable film critics, etc., but an encyclopedic article cannot be written in that tone.

The article Abhijit Pawar has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Ayurveda on Wikipedia
Hello. We met at Clinical trials on Ayurvedic drugs. Unfortunately I do not have much time to develop Wikipedia articles on ayurveda these days, but I am interested and try to follow what is happening. One promising project is at meta:Wiki_Project_Med/Projects/Ayurveda, where User:AbhiSuryawanshi is trying to get good copies of all the classical health texts uploaded in the original languages then translated into every other language.
In general I would like more health history and information from India to be available online and through Wikipedia, and more engagement from people from India. That person doing the ayurvedic project, Abhishek, lives in Pune. If you are ever around contact him and see if we can collaborate on something. Thanks.

Hello, I'm MrBill3. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Ayurveda without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Freedom 251
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Freedom 251 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.theinternetbuzz.com/topic/Freedom-251. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion".

Dear Abhijeet
I am sick of paid media and want to take Wikipedia and Wikinews to become the ultimate unbiased news sources of the future. Kindly see my proposal ( work in progress ) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Shashaanktulsyan/DataDrivenNews
Even if the entire thing is not feasible in wikipedia in it's current form. But whatever wikipedia already is, is highly under utilized. Let us talk about it. Please share your feedback on this.

Credentials and lists in Biographies
You seem to have created a number of biographies of Indian scientists and institutions. This is all to the good. but please take a look at WP:CRED, WP:NOTDIR and WP:NOTPROMO. The articles of yours that I took a look at all had issues with these guidelines. Academic credentials are inappropriate; long lists of publications are virtually always inappropriate, the only exceptions being authors so popular that all of their work has received substantial critical attention. I would suggest that you go through your creations and fix these issues. Finally, please remember that biographies of living people should have a reliable source for everything in them. It isn't enough to provide a source about a book they once wrote, and then to fill the article out with unsourced information. Vanamonde (talk) 06:26, 9 April 2017 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Fattechand Jain Vidyalaya requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

October 2018
Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Vivek Agnihotri. I noticed that when you added the image to the infobox, you added it as a thumbnail. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:
|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]
Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:
|image=SomeImage.jpg
.
There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption
. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks! Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 19:48, 12 October 2018 (UTC)

Event coordinator granted
After reviewing your request for the "eventcoordinator" permission, I have enabled the flag on your account. Keep in mind these things:
- The event coordinator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
- The event coordinator right allows you to temporarily add the "confirmed" permission to newly created accounts. You should not grant this for more than 10 days.
- The event coordinator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the event coordinator right will result in its removal by an administrator.
- Please note, if you were previously a member of the "account creator" group, your flag may have been converted to this new group.
If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the event coordinator right. Happy editing! — xaosflux Talk 20:18, 23 November 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot. But I am not aware how to give permission to create multiple accounts from the same IP address. Do I need to write something at the talk page of that IP address? Kindly guide. Thank you very much. -- Abhijeet Safai (talk) 06:15, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

February 2019
Your recent editing history at Narendra Modi 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. See BRD for 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Sitush (talk) 15:46, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
Please also be aware
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have recently shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Speedy deletion nomination of Vera Sharav
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Vera Sharav requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://thenamesdictionary.com/name-meanings/156699/name-meaning-of-sharav. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
