[edit]Hello, I'm David Biddulph. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Anushka Shetty, which appears to have been in good faith, but was misguided, and has been reverted. If you wish to discuss this, you can do so here, or at my talk page. Thank you. - You got confused with your formatting, so please check your edits with "Show preview" before saving. - David Biddulph (talk) 07:39, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
Please stop putting things like <a class="ktg6us78hf8vdu7" href="javascript:void(0)">film</a>
into articles. That's not the way that Wikipedia does formatting; please read Wikipedia:Markup#Text formatting. - David Biddulph (talk) 09:32, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
Hello, I'm Tolly4bolly. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, Anushka Shetty, but that you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Tolly4bolly 09:28, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

[edit]I have yet again had to revert an edit of yours to Anushka Shetty as you have put in characters which you presumably think are formatting the text, but in fact are inserting gibberish. You've been told before; how many more times do you need to be told? If you have trouble understanding English, please stick to editing a Wikipedia in a language which you do understand. - David Biddulph (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 16:48, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

[edit]Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Anushka Shetty. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Sarahj2107 (talk) 15:36, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Ajith - Gautham menon untitled film requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
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 "Click here to contest this speedy deletion".

Speedy deletion nomination of Size Zero 2015film
[edit]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 Size Zero 2015film 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 person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, but it does not 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 "Click here to 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. smileguy91talk 17:07, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

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.

Proposed deletion of Bhagmati (2016 film)
[edit]The article Bhagmati (2016 film) has been proposed for deletion. The proposed deletion notice added to the article should explain why.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. CAPTAIN RAJU (✉) 20:56, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
Hi there, please avoid using blogs like updatebro.com as references as you did here. Anyone with an internet connection can start a blog and call himself an expert. We only care what reliable published sources with established reputations for fact-checking and accuracy have to say about anything. Please see WP:UGC and WP:RS. New references need to be added to support the awards, and it's also unclear whether some of the awards are even noteworthy enough to include in the article. Thanks.

It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Anushka Shetty 2.jpg
[edit]A tag has been placed on File:Anushka Shetty 2.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. 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.
If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — 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 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. – Train2104 (t • c) 14:20, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

The article Mugen Rao has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Non-notable. Clearly not actually the lead of Gerak Khas. At most this would merit a redirect to a list of reality show contestants like we do for other reality show contestants, if we have such a list. Obvious promo.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Mugen Rao is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mugen Rao until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 18:20, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
