Kalyan Singh
[edit]Greetings, and thanks for editing Wikipedia. The effort you put in is appreciated. Unfortunately, I had to revert a recent edit you made to Kalyan Singh. This was because Wikipedia is not a news source, and so we do not mention each and every news article about the subject; this would be giving such items undue weight. We only include it when the coverage given to it in reliable sources makes its importance clear. Please do not be discouraged by this, and continue to make useful contributions to Wikipedia. Feel free to contact me with any questions you have. Regards, Vanamonde93 (talk) 23:20, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

References
[edit]Remember that when adding medical content please only use high-quality reliable sources as references. We typically use review articles, major textbooks and position statements of national or international organizations. WP:MEDHOW walks you through editing step by step. A list of resources to help edit health content can be found here. The edit box has a build in citation tool to easily format references based on the PMID or ISBN. We also provide style advice about the structure and content of medicine-related encyclopedia articles. The welcome page is another good place to learn about editing the encyclopedia. If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a note. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 10:55, 29 July 2015 (UTC)

Sources
[edit]Hi, I see that you've been adding content with some sources to many articles. While the idea and action is very good, there are some issues with the quality of the sources you have added. This is not something that's easy to figure out for new editors, so I'll just give you some examples:
- On Munaf Patel, you added spouse's name cited to a source. That source on checking appears to be a user submitted content site and does not have a reputation for fact checking and will not qualify.
- On Delhi, you added that it is a city-state sourced to a conference website. In this case context matters, while the conference website may be used for non-controversial information about itself or related to the topics covered, it shouldn't be used to cite unrelated information about the host city etc as they don't have that kind of expertise. In this case your website says that Delhi is a state, but that's not the case as it hasn't received statehood.
I encourage you to look at this page to help get an understanding what could be considered a reliable source. cheers. —SpacemanSpiff 12:51, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
Regarding the source page
[edit]Anjali das gupta (talk) 05:01, 31 July 2015 (UTC) Hey Greetings, I would like to know while editing that how can I justify the source is reliable.can you please suggest me the way how can I distinguish.Anjali das gupta (talk) 05:01, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Anjali, please read WP:RS first, which explains what a "reliable source" is from Wikipedia point of view. It should be published source (could be online) with a well-known, mainstream publisher. Mainstream newspapers like The Times of India and The Hindu are ok (but for only news, not opinions). Internet sites, blogs, wikis etc. are not ok. Your edit to Pramod Mahajan today was questionable, because iloveindia is not a mainstream newspaper. In this case, I would let it pass because the information seems factual and not contentious. But, still, it is best to avoid such sources. If you have queries about anything, please feel free to ask. Cheers, Kautilya3 (talk) 12:41, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
Please read the article
[edit]A number of your recent edits are adding content that is already in the article and supported by better references. Please read WP:MEDRS regarding references.
Also there should be a space NOT a period after a reference before the next sentence. THis is not proper formating [2] Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 14:43, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
Regarding the edits

Go slow
[edit]You are now introducing factual inaccuracies to articles, such as with this edit on Delhi where you added that the Jama Masjid was built in 1956, while it should have been 1656. In addition, while it's generally a non-controversial statement, blogs like this shouldn't be used as sources, especially given that for such info, high quality sources are readily available. I think Kautilya3 has already given you some good pointers on this, please follow those. cheers. —SpacemanSpiff 07:47, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- This is in reg to your question on my talk page, can you please link the source here, so that we can evaluate if that's something you should use or not? cheers. —SpacemanSpiff 07:52, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- The India.gov source is ok in general, but for controversial info it shouldn't be used. However, newworldencyclopedia is not a reliable source as they copy their articles from Wikipedia. Hope this helps. —SpacemanSpiff 08:38, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- I'm not familiar with medical articles and medical sources, but I see that Doc James has advised you about that, please follow the doctor's advice on that.
- Historical sources: WP:HISTRS is a good starting point. In general, reviewed books, or articles published in peer reviewed scholarly journals are acceptable. e.g. for The Jama Masjid bit you were trying to add: this book would be a good source as it is published by a reputed publisher and is held at various libraries around the world
- Biographies: Avoid blogs and random websites. In general, newspapers such as The Hindu, The Times of India etc are reliable. However, context matters a lot, e.g. page 3 articles from Times of India shouldn't be used, likewise columns by people should be used only to verify their opinion, and not a source for facts.
- Most importantly, please have a read through of our reliable sources guideline to get an understanding. —SpacemanSpiff 09:45, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Mean as custard (talk) 12:43, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
- @Mean as custard: That is not a very helpful warning. What disruptive editing has Anjali done? -- Kautilya3 (talk) 16:58, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
