List of Indian monarchs‎

Hello, I'm Dai Pritchard. I noticed that you recently removed some content from List of Indian monarchs without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Dai Pritchard (talk) 14:00, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to List of Indian monarchs, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. Dai Pritchard (talk) 14:03, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for adding edit summaries, but they don't explain why you've removed so many monarchs of India, including foreign imperial monarchs. Let's please continue this discussion at the talk page, Talk:List of Indian monarchs‎. Dai Pritchard (talk) 18:12, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at List of Indian monarchs. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. Dai Pritchard (talk) 18:43, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yash, I can see that your edits are in good faith, but you still must get consensus before making significant and contentious edits to an article, such as the repeated deletions you're making at List of Indian monarchs. Otherwise, a Wikipedia administrator is likely to block you for edit-warring. Please join the discussion on inclusion of foreign monarchs in the List of Indian monarchs here, and let's find some common ground on this. Thanks, Dai Pritchard (talk) 18:53, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 13:19, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring

Your recent editing history at List of Indian monarchs shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that 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. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Indian Monarchs

Hi YashShah008. When you find that your changes to a page are being reverted, please use the talk page to get consensus before attempting to change the page again. Repeatedly reinserting your changes, even if you are discussing the material on the talk page, will get you blocked. --regentspark (comment) 15:13, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yash, I'm going to edit protect and revert you on Lists of rulers as well (per this request). Please use the talk page from now on. Thanks. (Add clarification: This is not a comment on your changes. You might want to drop a note on WT:IN seeking broader input on what should or should not go in these articles.) --regentspark (comment) 17:32, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Disruptive editing (Final Warning)

YashShah008, your creation of the article Wikipedia:List of great indian dynasty is purely disruptive. Please note that this is a final warning and if you edit anything on any Indian monarch or king without first getting consensus, you will be blocked. --regentspark (comment) 14:33, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

January 2015

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for persistent disruptive editing, as you did at List of Indian Kings and Emperors. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. regentspark (comment) 15:11, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yash, FYI, if you continue editing disruptively after this block expires, the next one will be indefinite. --regentspark (comment) 15:15, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Khestwol. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to North India because it did not appear constructive.

Deletion discussion about Empires of India

Hello, YashShah008,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Empires of India should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Empires of India .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks, Fitindia (talk) 17:30, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Empires of India

Hello YashShah008,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Empires of India for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Fitindia (talk) 17:41, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
