[edit]Hello! I'm a bot created by another Wikipedia editor. I wanted to let you know that I removed a link that you recently added to the page Malda College here. I did this because http://www.facebook.com/pages/Malda-College/241014689296434 is probably inappropriate for an encyclopedia.
We appreciate your help in making Wikipedia better for everyone. If I made a mistake, feel free to undo my edit. If you have any questions, you can ask at the Help desk.
Thank you! --XLinkBot (talk) 05:38, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Malda College. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Also, please do not remove Maintenance templates. Thank you, -- MST☆R (Chat Me!) 06:25, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
Please do not add unsourced content, as you did to Malda College. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- MST☆R (Chat Me!) 06:34, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
This is your last warning. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Malda College, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Next addition of unsourced content, I'll be reporting you. Thanks, -- MST☆R (Chat Me!) 06:38, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Malda College shows that you are in danger of breaking the three-revert rule, or that you may have already broken it. An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Breaking the three-revert rule often leads to a block.
If you wish to avoid being blocked, instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. You may still be blocked for edit warring even if you do not exceed the technical limit of the three-revert rule if your behavior indicates that you intend to continue to revert repeatedly.

Hi Raktim, your changes keep getting undone because you have not provided citations to reliable sources. Unfortunately, Wikipedia cannot accept content based on personal knowledge. I'd recommend finding a book or website about the school, then adding information about the school (in your own words) based on what the book or website says, and adding a citation to the book or website. (See WP:Referencing for beginners for help.)
By the way, it's also best to always write from a neutral point of view and to set your own opinions aside when contributing.

- Further, on the subject of writing from a neutral point of view, this edit included such language as "premier college", "one of the more sophisticated and enriched colleges", and words such as "excellent" and "impressive". That cannot by any stretch of the imagination be regarded as neutral reporting. Together with other aspects of your editing, such as links you have added, the overall impression is that you are trying to take over the article, and change it from an objective encyclopaedia article into a promotional prospectus for the college. Wikipedia is not a medium for promotion. JamesBWatson (talk) 10:27, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
- It is worth mentioning that the reason I came here was that another user reported you to an administrators' noticeboard for reporting vandals and spammers. Looking at this page, I see that others have warned you, but have perhaps have not made it clear to you what the problems were. I hope that things are now clearer, and if you take on board what said then you should be able to avoid the block which you were warned about. JamesBWatson (talk) 10:31, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
