Creating new pages
[edit]Hi there, you seem to have created a few amounts of articles, which are completely based on same thing. If a topic is based on the same subject matter, for example you have created the Bangladeshi UK community, this is however not needed because, another main article is present called British Bangladeshi, please read the information of Wikipedia and then start editing, Thank you.

Yeah in the article, the population figures are actually backed up by the sources from the National Office for Statistics and the census. Sources or references are needed in Wikipedia articles for verification like this one here [1]. You have put the information about the high birth rates, but you need to provide the source of where you have received the information. If you think some of the data is bias or you don't agree with it, you can always discuss the matter on the Talk Page of the article on the top, and then come to an agreement. If you would like to learn more about Wikipedia, please visit the Wikipedia:Tutorial page. [2] Enjoy your stay. Mohsin 19:22, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
Same with British Pakistani community, which already exists at British Pakistanis. -- Shadowlynk (Talk) 19:29, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
Removing cited figures
[edit]Hi. Please do not remove cited figures and replace them with uncited material. If you have problems with the figures, and believe you have a better source with different figures, then please first bring the issue up on the article's talk page. There you can explain your position, introduce your sources and avoid misunderstandings and disputes.
Also, when making edits, please fill in the edit summary. This is helpful to others to explain what you are doing and again avoids misunderstandings. Otherwise your deletions could be mistaken as vandalism. Thanks. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 16:23, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
