Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 20:00, 6 July 2020

Welcome AbhinavA1694!

I'm Galendalia, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Please remember to:

• Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
• Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.

Teahouse talkback: you've got messages!

May 2020

Hello, I'm Theroadislong. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Shobha Gurtu, but you didn't provide a reliable source. 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. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 17:11, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Menggie Cobarrubias. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 17:11, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

Your thread has been archived

Hi AbhinavA1694! The thread you created at the Misplaced Pages:Teahouse, Editing Misplaced Pages pages, has been archived because there was no discussion for a few days. You can still find the archived discussion here. If you have any additional questions that weren't answered then, please feel free to create a new thread.

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham... ‎, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Misplaced Pages:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Ravensfire (talk) 03:41, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Christoph Sydow, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not add date/place of birth without a reliable source. Scraper websites which you've used in the prior edits are NOT reliable sources - stick with high quality newspapers and websites. You will end up blocked if you keep making unsourced edits like this. Ravensfire (talk) 13:11, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Misplaced Pages, as you did at Jeanson James Ancheta. Seriously, if you change the date of birth again without a source, you will be reported for repeated unsourced edits to articles about a living person.Template:Z189 Ravensfire (talk) 16:43, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Misplaced Pages, as you did at Ameesha Patel. Do NOT add date or place of birth again without also adding a reliable source that supports the date. Ravensfire (talk) 22:14, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Misplaced Pages, as you did at Ameesha Patel. You need to read the reliable source page. You CANNOT just use any site that comes up on a google search, it has to be a good source. thefamousbirthdays.com is not a good source - it's a blog / scraper site that pulls from lots of places, including Misplaced Pages. Same thing with onenov.in, it's not a good source. Stick to newspapers and HIGHLY regarded sites. Ravensfire (talk) 02:57, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 18

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Kabhi Na Kabhi, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tamil (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:07, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

Personal plea - PLEASE READ THIS

AbhinavA1694, I'm hoping you read this and understand that while your edits are being made in good faith, you need to also include sources/references that support your changes. I've left you quite a few warning messages about this and having seen you respond to any of them or start using sources. I'm not the only person that's left warnings either. You NEED to use sources on your edits. If you don't do so after this message, I will take this to the admin noticeboard and ask that you be blocked until you start talking with other editors and show that you understand the issues and how to use sources. Ignoring all of these warnings message isn't an option, you'll just end up blocked.

If you don't know what sources are, or how to use them, Help:Referencing for beginners is a great page to help you understand why sources are needed, what are good sources (blogs, scraper sites, other wikis are bad, stick with major news sites!) and how to include those sources in your edits. I'd really prefer not to ask for you to be blocked, but if you continue as you are, that's the only option. Thanks. Ravensfire (talk) 00:14, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 26

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Bhaskar Oru Rascal, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tamil (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).
