See the article talk page, please. I shall later remove the content that you have added unless you can come up with a good reason why I should not. - Sitush (talk) 05:41, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to Murder of Jessica Lal appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe this. Thank you.

"Massive" is a subjective term. Please do not use such words. Sitush (talk) 05:42, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Murder of Jessica Lal. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Sitush (talk) 05:43, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If you're reading this, I want to clarify two things. First, just because something is sourced, doesn't necessarily mean it should be necessarily be added to any given article; in this case, the information you've repeatedly tried to re-add appears to violate WP:UNDUE, as one particular protest probably shouldn't get extra coverage, given that this article is about the murder in general. Since there have been a number of protests, simply mentioning that is enough for a good encyclopedic overview. Another way of saving that is that we don't aim to include everything somewhat related to a subject, only selected, highly relevant items. However, and this leads into the next point, it may be that through discussion on the article's talk page (Talk:Murder of Jessica Lal), editors might come to a consensus to include the info or reference in some way. That second point is that, when you make a significant change to Wikipedia, and it's repeatedly reverted, you have to stop making the change, even if you think you're right. You have to go discuss the changes at the article talk page. Continually trying to re-add the same information to an article is edit warring, and, as Sitush explained above, can result in you being blocked from editing. No one wants that--instead, please discuss the issue on the talk page. In the event that editors can't come to an agreement, Wikipedia has dispute resolution processes that you can use to get more input from more people. Please do feel free to ask questions on my talk page at any time if you need help. Qwyrxian (talk) 11:52, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I see now that you are discussing it there, which is great. I probably won't chime in there tonight (and perhaps not for a few days, real life is going to keep me mostly away from WP), but discussion is definitely the way to go! Qwyrxian (talk) 11:57, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Please self-revert your latest attempt to include that information and continue the discussion on the article talk page. If you are unwilling to do this then I see little alternative but to seek the intervention of an administrator because you are edit warring against two people. - Sitush (talk) 16:31, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Murder of Jessica Lal, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Sitush (talk) 05:40, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
