Hello, DeepstoneV, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like this place and decide to stay.

Why can't I edit some particular pages?
Some pages that have been vandalized repeatedly are semi-protected, meaning that editing by new or unregistered users is prohibited through technical measures. If you have an account that is four days old and has made at least 10 edits, then you can bypass semi-protection and edit any semi-protected page. Some pages, such as highly visible templates, are fully-protected, meaning that only administrators can edit them. If this is not the case, you may have been blocked or your IP address caught up in a range block.
Where can I experiment with editing Wikipedia?
How do I create an article?
See how to create your first article, then use the Article Wizard to create one, and add references to the article as explained below.
How do I create citations?
  1. Do a search on Google or your preferred search engine for the subject of the Wikipedia article that you want to create a citation for.
  2. Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
  3. In a new tab/window, go to the citation generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out as many fields as you can about the website you just found.
  4. Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
  5. Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text (it will be something like <ref> {{cite web | .... }}</ref>, copy the whole thing).
  6. In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
  7. If the article does not have a References or Notes section (or the like), add this to the bottom of the page, but above the External Links section and the categories:
==References==
{{Reflist}}
What is a WikiProject, and how do I join one?
A WikiProject is a group of editors that are interested in improving the coverage of certain topics on Wikipedia. (See this page for a complete list of WikiProjects.) If you would like to help, add your username to the list that is on the bottom of the WikiProject page.

Edit warring

Information icon Hi DeepstoneV! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Bajirao I several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you.

Don't distort sources

Information icon Hello, I'm Worldbruce. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Sher Shah Suri seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 16:58, 14 January 2024 (UTC) reply

Do not change sourced content as per your pov/beliefs

Information icon Hello, I'm Salman Cooper Mapping, I've recently noticed your removal of sourced content such as that from the article of Tipu Sultan, please refrain from doing so. I can already see that you've been warned against edit warring and editing without a neutral pov, please try to avoid doing so again. Regards Salman Cooper Mapping ( talk) 23:48, 30 January 2024 (UTC) reply

The Opinion is Disputed, There are also Many sources that Describing him A Sunni Muslim. So for not Causing Edit War, Only Muslim would be Perfect DeepstoneV ( talk) 10:16, 31 January 2024 (UTC) reply
Any source by Oxford is automatically qualified as a WP:RS and is valued over all other sources, sources that call him Sunni seem to be from people writing a book and publishing it under their own name or unknown/non WP:RS publishers, please do not change the sourced info and repl with any substantial counter to this reply itself rather than changing info beforehand.

Disruptive Editing on Tipu Sultan

Would you please stop removing sourced content from the article? The source provided by you has neither a link or any details (name of the publisher, author etc), please stop doing this or you will possibly face sanctions for disruptive editing Salman Cooper Mapping ( talk) 15:54, 8 February 2024 (UTC) reply

I don't Know much about citations Format but the Source was also A Wp:Rs and I have Found Five More Wp:Rs Sources for his Religion and its sect, So now with the proper citation format can I replace it? DeepstoneV ( talk) 16:28, 8 February 2024 (UTC) reply
No, Oxford is the most reliable WP:RS, the sources presented by you seem to be from irrelevant publishers, even if WP:RS sources are present. We only take the most reliable one which in this case is Oxford's Salman Cooper Mapping ( talk) 17:08, 8 February 2024 (UTC) reply
If two WP:RS comes with two different outcomes, we must put both in the infobox. Imperial [AFCND] 14:05, 12 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{ Ctopics/aware}} template.

Doesn't the architecture section look ugly, now that you have restored the images? Please at least resize the images, and give the locations of the places. At present, it seems, the Bahmani built structures mostly in Bidar but obviously that is not the case.I hope you get my point.Thanks.
