Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 15:43, 29 August 2022

Welcome!

Hello, Pranesh Ravikumar, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one of your contributions does not conform to Misplaced Pages's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Misplaced Pages articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Questions page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have!

Please use only your account to edit

Hi, Pranesh Ravikumar, welcome to Misplaced Pages. It looks like you're using both this account and IP's in the 2409:4072:6297:737f::/64 range to edit List of Brahmins. Please don't do that. Once you have created an account, you need to always log in to it, as changing between an account and an IP makes it difficult to communicate with you. Bishonen | tålk 13:00, 27 May 2021 (UTC).

There was no indication of what edit you were reverting here, nor of where the "discussion" took place. How did the word "Genocide" enter the picture (as part of your edit)? -- Kautilya3 (talk) 12:15, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi Kautilya3,

The clarification regarding the Rahul Pandita edit was about is that Self identification of caste. Since in his Official twitter he has shared his part of story about what happened during Kashmir and also that he self identified himself as "Kashmir Pandit" due to this i just made the edit for the same. There was discussion after this made with other Misplaced Pages editors regarding whether it need to be considered or not. Please note that the term "Genocide" was not part of my edit but was made by a anonymous editor but during my revert of edit it just got added. Apologies from my side for not taking that part into account. The conversation regarding the same link is below,

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/User_talk:Dissoxciate#BLP

Thanks Pranesh Ravikumar (talk) 12:58, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

Ok, in future, please make sure that all content-related discussion takes place on the article talk pages. Also, the term "genocide" is being added by drive-by IP editors. As a Misplaced Pages regular, we would expect that you would revert such edits before you make further edits of your own. If you don't, you will make it harder for the rest of us to keep the Misplaced Pages neutral. Cheers, Kautilya3 (talk) 13:26, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi DaxServer,

Thanks for bringing it to my notice. There seems to be some clarification from my side needed regarding BLP. In case a person's caste is self identfied by themselves will that be a valid edit to proceed or is it invalid as per the new set of rules.
