Abdulhaseebatd, you are invited to the Teahouse!
Hi Abdulhaseebatd! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. We hope to see you there!

June 2021
Hello Abdulhaseebatd. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.
Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Abdulhaseebatd. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Abdulhaseebatd|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}
. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. BEACHIDICAE🌊 16:24, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
You're being mistaken BEACHIDICAE🌊, as I'm not getting any compensation nor expectimg one, directly or indirectly. By the way one should do some fact checking before accusation. Don't you think there's a difference between legitimate edits & paid ones? One more thing, how do you write your name like that means with different colors Thanks...MalikSaab🌊
- That's really interesting considering you responded to a Freelancer request and were awarded the project. BEACHIDICAE🌊 18:26, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
- What BEACHIDICAE🌊, you're saying that I responded to a Freelancer request & were awarded the project(you're actually saying that I took money/expecting money to edit on wikipedia). Never expected a mere allegation from a experienced editor, please provide me a link of that. Kindly Prove that I'm being paid by anyone to improve this draft(otherwise I'll expect a Sorry from you for your allegation.) For your info, I was asked by a friend to improve this draft, though i was not very much interested in this singer, nor I heard her before. But now after this I'll not be only improving this draft, but I'll also invite my friends to improve this draft. Thank you BEACHIDICAE🌊 for motivating me to improve this draft. You know, I love challenges, so I'll make sure giving 100% to improve this draft. Abdulhaseebatd (talk) 09:14, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

Edit Summary
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! Bsoyka (talk · contribs) 03:10, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you Bsoyka for notifying me about edit Summary, from now & onward I'll make sure to give a perfect edit Summary to my edits. Plus I've checked for that prompt message. Thank you Abdulhaseebatd (talk) 13:56, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
Zaid Ali T moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Zaid Ali T, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. bonadea contributions talk 20:52, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
- bonadea, How you can come up saying that that Article(now Draft:Zaid Ali) needs more citations from reliable, independent sources, when it already had citation from most credible national level Pakistani sources such as the Nation(Largest Pakistani English Newspaper) 1 2, Geo/Jang Media(largest urdu News group) 3, inCPak 4, Samaa News(National level News channel) 5, Duniya News 6. I think you missed seeing refrences and their credibility, so instead of categorizing Article as stub you (in some hurry) removed this article to draft. Please do revert your draftication, so more people can actively improve this Zaid Ali to upper categories. Thank you Abdulhaseebatd (talk) 02:01, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
- No need to worry – I have read all the sources and the draftification was not accidental. One or two of the sources might be possible to use in the article, but the majority are purely promotional fluff and/or very short notices, with a couple of primary sources as well. Feel free to work on the draft (which I have returned to Draft:Zaid Ali, since you tried to get around the salting of Zaid Ali by using a different title) and when you believe that it does meet WP:N you can submit it for review. If the reviewing editor thinks that it might survive an AfD deletion, they can request that the create protection be removed. Regards, --bonadea contributions talk 12:41, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
- Please mention which of following stuff is promotional;

[User:Bonadea|bonadea]], Please show (& also report them on proper Wikipedia Forum) which of above news website is faking us all by giving promotional stuff in name of their editorial staff. I think it'll be better if i can notify other editors, as it's important to notify other editor to not use links from these news websites. Also which of above is primary source? Thank you Abdulhaseebatd (talk) 13:47, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
- All of them. The sources are all promotional, but as you will see I have made no claims of them "faking us all [sic]". You don't need to notify other editors, since this is already thoroughly explained in the policies on neutrality and reliable sourcing. As for the sources you list here, 1 is five simple sentences telling the reader that Zaid Ali has posted to Instagram; 2 is marginally longer and also tells the reader that Zaid Ali posted to Instagram; 3 is an Instagram post that's been copied into the publication with some surrounding fluff; 4 copies the exact same Instagram post (but note that either 3 or 4 doesn't know what the Instagram posting was actually about!); 5 says "he is married" and then uses a lot of space for Instagram posts and copies of tweets; 6 is the only one of the six that is vaguely independent, but all it does is quote Ali and say about 50 words about him, in a 350-word notice. A BLP (just like any other article) needs significant coverage to show that the topic is notable. --bonadea contributions talk 14:19, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you bonadea for showing me other perspective. I don't know why I was getting mad though it was my own mistake of not referencing draft properly. But I will like to let you know that there is a lot of stuff available online about him on google search(pakistan location) but I don't know anything else I can write about a YouTuber on Wikipedia. That's why I wanted this draft to be a Article so more people can contribute. I'll like to show some other citations which I recently added;
- Ary News About 10 pakistani Comedians, 10th is zaidaliT (Ary News is currently most viewed Urdu News channel in Pakistan)
- Dawn News About Zaid (pretty long Article about him from a most credible pakistani news paper)
- Ary News stating 10 facts about Zaid
and also there are a lot of news about him in urdu language as well( but I'm really bad in urdu searches on google).
If we can conclude these citations reliable independent & long (along with vaguely independent one), I'll request you to move this draft to Article, so others can add more info (I've nothing left to write about him). Thank you. Abdulhaseebatd (talk) 15:04, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
bonadea, there are two wikipedia pages i found about him in other languages;
- Urdu Wikipedia (without any references though)
- in unknown language Wikipedia
They can be just translation of some former English Wikipedia page about him(Not sure) Abdulhaseebatd (talk) 15:36, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
Important Question from bonadea
One more Question bonadea, I want to add many very very popular Pakistani Youtubers/stars to Wikipedia like Shahveer Jafri, Ducky Bhai, Mehrban TV, P 4 Pakao, Rahim Pardesi and many others. They're Celebrities, followed by Millions on their YouTube, appear frequently & regularly on national TV channels, but problem is most of Pakistani media don't actually write on their website, but instead they put all of their stuff on Youtube. What I can do in such case? Can I show their notability by YouTube citations of Credible news media? Thank you. Abdulhaseebatd (talk) 15:22, 7 June 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for contributing to the article Draft:Zaid Ali. However, please do not use unreliable sources such as blogs, your own website, websites and publications with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight, expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, that are promotional in nature, or that rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions, as one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. If you require further assistance, please look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse. Thank you. Kuru (talk) 14:02, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you User:Kuru for your interest in Draft:Zaid Ali. I didn't get your point (so sorry about that). Please guide me more about this topic. Yeah I'm not very sure about verifiability of some of sources I used (like parhlo.com, of which I never heard before using that citation) but most of sources I used are independent, reliable and verifiable like I used sources from most reputable English newspapers of Pakistan, which are Dawn.com(older than Pakistan itself), The Express Tribune, The Nation and National TV Urdu channels like ARY News, Samaa TV, Dunya News and reputable Urdu newspapers like Daily Jang. Thank you. Abdulhaseebatd (talk) 14:47, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
Sham Idrees
Thanks for asking help brother on my talk page, There are actually 29 Pakistani YouTubers already on Wikipedia see Category:Pakistani YouTubers and jobs of adminstrators are to look at grammer, wrong information, notablity, citations etc, adminstrators mostly do not make pages, feel free to work on your mission. Also I have seen some of your edits on Sham Idrees which are a bit disruptive such as you keep changing Canadian to Pakistani, Sham Idrees is a British-Canadian YouTuber as he was born in London and lives in Canada, has a Canadian citizenship, so please do not change it to Pakistani origin, He sure does have British-Pakistani origin but that doesn't make him a Pakistani since his parents are. Thank you. User:SharqHabib 15:50 (UTC)
- Thanks User:SharqHabib for responding to my query. Yeah, I'm trying to add some of those notable pakistani folks who usually show up on national TV. No, not really, it's we all who make Wikipedia run properly, not only those admin guys. Yeah, I actually wrote him Pakistani, as it's what he identities himself on in his videos. By the way, It's really great to have you here on Wikipedia. Would look to collaborate with you & will try to learn from your experience on wikipedia. Thank you.. Abdulhaseebatd (talk) 16:42, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for reply User:Abdulhaseebatd. Yes Sham Idrees does say he is Pakistani, but if someone says he is Pakistani, he doesn't actually become a Pakistani unless you have his full info, anyone can lie on YouTube, I also do have Indian descent but If I call myself Indian, that doesn't make me an Indian citizen, Sham Idrees was born in London so he is 50% British and he has a Canadian citizenship so he is 50% Canadian which makes him a British-Canadian person, his parents are Pakistani but that doesn't make Sham Pakistani, if you have anything else to ask you can ask at my (talk page) 16:51, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
- Got it, yeah it's right to be more factual here on Wikipedia than guessing. Surely I would love to see more from you. Thank you Abdulhaseebatd (talk) 16:59, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Eva Zu Beck.jpeg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Eva Zu Beck.jpeg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 14:41, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
Shahveer Jafry
You added Shahveer Jafry to the list of YouTubers. There is no article for such person. Having an article is the first thing. They have to be notable enough to warrant an article. Just because they are on YouTube doesn't mean you put them on the list. Again, they have to be notable. If you think he should be on the list, make a proper draft article. When you think it's ready for mainspace, you submit it. Don't be discouraged if it's rejected. If you decide to create an article in draftspace, it's on you to establish notability. Thanks. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 04:20, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
- Hello User:Fishhead2100, actually there was a page for Shahveer Jafry (Which just has been deleted by an admin on basis of a recent AfD in 2019(he calls it recent) ). I'm trying to get back thst page. Anyway thank you for your contribution. ☢️ Radioactive 🎃 (talk) 12:34, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
- Um, 2019 isn't recent. If you bothered to look, it was deleted yesterday (June 27). That was the third nomination. In 2016, it was speedy deleted twice on the basis of A7 and G4. In 2018, it was in mainspace, but was moved to draftspace, but ultimately deleted from the latter. Basically, just move on from this person. The article is going to get deleted again. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 15:57, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Shahveer Jafry.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Shahveer Jafry.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:45, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Sajid Tarar portrait.jpg
A tag has been placed on File:Sajid Tarar portrait.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement of Appears to have originated on the subject's Facebook or LinkedIn profile. 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

@TheBirdsShedTears:, yeah this draft has many shortcomings, it completely missed all of his Hindi coverage. I've asked WikiProject India to help, let see if they can help. I think he's notable (as a fan), but yeah currently used refs aren't very much helpful. Thankew Abdulhaseebatd (talk) 10:10, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Abdulhaseebatd! Your additions to Azad Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly 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. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. 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, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 20:19, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Diannaa: – Really? I want to know how a government website isn't public domain? Radioactive (talk) 13:15, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- The text is a match for https://dailytimes.com.pk/69458/a-look-at-46-year-parliamentary-trail-of-ajk-legislative-assembly. I was unable to check the source you listed http://ajkassembly.gok.pk/brief-history/ as it returns an error "Error 1020 Access denied" so I was unable to confirm that page's copyright status or if it supports the material you added.— Diannaa (talk) 14:14, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- The webpage in the infobox is a dead link as well. The archived version shows a copyright notice "2020© AJ&K; Information Technology Board, All Rights Reserved." The only working webpage for this government body that I have found so far is this one, which is marked as "© Copyright 2021 PM Secretariat, All Rights Reserved".Not all governments release their works into the public domain. Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Pakistan shows government works in Pakistan enjoy copyright protection for 50 years from publication date. So no.— Diannaa (talk) 14:34, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Diannaa:, Apparently there's an issue with this site. I took me a while to find site, as it's not indexed by Google, and now I'm also struggling to save this page by wayback machine to show you an archive. Maybe site is limited to Pakistani IPs, that's why you (and also wayback machine) were denied to access site. But site isn't dead. Secondly Pakistani laws are irrelevant to Azad Kashmir, they're quite independent of Pakistani laws, infact they do have their own constitution, Supreme Court and Government etc. And I'm also unsure if any assembly (of any territory) of Pakistan do hold any copyrights. Radioactive (talk) 15:04, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- But yeah, I'm gonna look at concerned laws of Azad Kashmir, to see if one can use data/info from Azad Kashmir assembly website. Thankew Radioactive (talk) 15:08, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

Pakistan Broadcasters Association moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Pakistan Broadcasters Association, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

- Mccapra Hi, I agree with you that article Pakistan Broadcasters Association doesn't cite significant amount of independent, reliable sources with WP:SIGCOV, but it doesn't mean topic don't have such sources to back. It's actually hard to find such sources as of now, but their existence is promising as this organization represent whole media industry of Pakistan at multiple forums like Supreme Court of Pakistan, Information Ministry of Pakistan and almost everywhere. And notability guidelines is all about assumption of existence of such sources not availability in any article. Thank you. Radioactive (talk) 11:04, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
