Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Declined G10
[edit]Hi Capitals00. I have declined the G10 tagging at the SPI report. By doing so, I am in no way indicating it has any validity. On the other hand, it's totally opaque to a responder like me – just a tagging as if the filing of a report self-proves an attack, and without any pointer to a previous finding to corroborate that notion. Absolutely, this could be have no validity, but it also could be absolutely correct. If it was possible for a person accused to foreclose the investigation itself by just deeming it an attack before investigation took place, that would destroy the whole point of the process.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 14:54, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

[edit] Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at Criticism of Hinduism. 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 lose editing privileges. 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. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges.
Hi Capitals, No edit summary or justification on your edits, and reinstatement after a revert without any discussion. This is no good! you (talk) 17:06, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
- I was not reverting you. I made this edit[1] because caste system among Muslims is about muslims of numerous regions around the world, thus labelling that article as limited to "Indian Muslims" is underestimation. Since there is no separate article for the caste system of Sikhs, it shouldn't be mentioned, but since their communities have a caste system as well as others like Zoroastrians, Jains, I mentioned "among others", instead. I changed a section title to "Widows", because provided source has not used the word "discrimination" anywhere or anything similar. Is that enough for a explanation? Capitals00 (talk) 04:27, 8 February 2016 (UTC)
- Ok, note that these are all subtle and contentious points. They need to be stated and, if necessary, debated. It doesn't help to resort to edit-warring. I will copy your post to the article talk page and continue there. Cheers, Kautilya3 (talk) 09:01, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

Edit warring at Indo-Pakistani war of 1971
[edit]It looks you are reverting against the talk page consensus at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:Capitals00 reported by User:Xtremedood (Result: ). in this edit you revert mention of Bangladesh forces in the military victory, though an RfC about that is still visible on the article talk page. You were offered a chance for mediation but you did not accept. There may still be time for you to respond at the noticeboard to avoid a block. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 03:02, 23 February 2016 (UTC)

Libyan-Egyptian War
[edit]Why exactly did you refer me to this page? The user in question added a sourced statement for what is actually the truth - that the war ended in a Egyptian victory (in addition to return to prewar lines). Why did you think this merited administrator attention? Buckshot06 (talk) 12:34, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
- I asked you to check, because you had agreed that Mikrobølgeovn is misrepresenting sources[5][6] and committing WP:OR. @Buckshot06: can you point out where did the source mention that the outcome Egyptian victory? There was no change in territory and there was official ceasefire that stopped the war, reliable sources must state that it was victory of Egypt then only we can state it. All sources only state that it was a ceasefire,[7] or mediation that was first accepted by Egypt.[8], "Four days later, Egypt declared a unilateral cease-fire, which Libya accepted."[9] There was no victory. 14:23, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
- The point I've been trying to make is that 1) Gaddafi initiated the war to hamper Egypt's negotiations with Israel, 2) Libya's invasion of Egyptian territory was repelled, and 3) Egypt held land on the Libyan side of the border when the war ended, and only withdrew after the guns fell silent. The source specifically mentions Gaddafi gave up on his war aims. This being said, this discussion should preferably take place on the relevant discussion page, and there only. --Mikrobølgeovn (talk) 22:59, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
- Please do not take part in this discussion, Mikrobolgeovn, especially after the undertaking you gave me on your talk page. This is an administrator-action, rather than content, query to try and clarify why this user called me in.
- Capitals00, the other user added a dead-tree, hardcopy source, which no doubt he had to do some looking for, but substantiates what is reasonably obvious: the Egyptians defeated the Libyans on the battlefield. Thus you might have trouble finding this source. None of the other formulations you've advanced rule out military victory. That some authors say that is the measure of the sources: you've quoted three conflict-resolution books, and Cooper et al is a military researcher/writer: they will naturally emphasise different things. Anyway, I understand more where you're coming from now, but please remember that you may not necessarily be able to verify dead-tree sources, and one needs to assume good faith that what editors reproduce from those sources is indeed what one would find in the printed book. Buckshot06 (talk) 00:59, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- @Buckshot06: doesn't seem like Mikrobolgeovn brought anything new really and he is still misrepresenting source. If you check his earlier edit[10] you would find that link[11] (unreliable WP:SELFPUB) was available in those days, but now its dead and available only from archive website[12], it is not showing anywhere that the war was Egyptian victory, then on this edit[13] he presents a quote that says: "Understanding that his military was too hopelessly outclassed and out of condition to instigate any political changes in Cairo, Gaddafi subsequently gave up his pressure upon Egypt." Again, it is not saying anywhere that war was Egyptian victory. Capitals00 (talk) 16:53, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Well no, and yes. Take a look at https://books.google.com/books?id=wELdCQAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&dq=Cooper,+T.,+%26+Grandolini,+A.+Libyan+Air+Wars:+Part+1:+1973-1985&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj-iaTK0bfNAhXDHB4KHQiRBSgQ6AEIJzAA#v=onepage&q=Cooper%2C%20T.%2C%20%26%20Grandolini%2C%20A.%20Libyan%20Air%20Wars%3A%20Part%201%3A%201973-1985&f=false. Look closely and you'll see it's one of Cooper's published works, a WP:V by our standards. I cannot yet figure out a way to access pages 21-25, though. Buckshot06 (talk) 22:21, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

Kashmir conflict, Ragging etc
[edit]Hi there, Thanks for doing the Ragging mergers. As for the sexual violence in Kashmir bit, it was clear to me that there was no consensus for merger to the Human rights pages. That is why I withdrew from the process, and really have no wish to go back. It is not fair to me when you include me in an RfC announcement, even if indirectly.

Gaming 3RR
[edit]Hi there. After the last few days, I feel I should advise you that you may not revert an editor just because you suspect they are a sockpuppet. The banning policy permits removal of comments by confirmed sockpuppets, only after it is proven that the account is operated by a blocked or banned editor, but removing such comments is not required and is often frowned upon if removing the comment alters the context of a conversation. Also, I think I should advise you that if you find yourself needing to justify your reverts with guidelines like WP:BLPREMOVE, it's probably better to stop reverting and file a complaint at the appropriate noticeboard. The WP:3RRNO exceptions are meant to protect the encyclopedia from blatant vandalism and urgently libelous content, not an excuse to revert any edit you disagree with, and I think you are quickly running out of administrators who will only warn you about this. Thanks. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:44, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
- I seemed to have mistaken there at the time when I did removed the comment from article thinking "its obvious sock", but you are right. Capitals00 (talk) 05:33, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
- Building on this: Capitals00, G5 only applies to pages created by a block-evading editor. It does not apply to pages created before they were blocked. More generally, I strongly suggest you abandon your vendetta against Terabar and ProudIndian007, and focus on building content. Vanamonde (talk) 05:35, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
- Yes that's why I have been only tagging those articles that were created with a sock after indef block on main account. I don't have any "vendetta" against Terabar and ProudIndian007 unless there was some formality Capitals00 (talk) 06:16, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
- Several of your tags were removed a few days ago, IIRC. There is no formal vendetta, I hope. All I am saying is that you are spending too much time in activities related to ProudIndian, and I am suggesting that you focus your energies elsewhere, as that is likely to be more productive. Vanamonde (talk) 07:17, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

Updates
[edit]- @Ivanvector: I was thinking that similar to Bhumihar, Jat people. These 2 articles that caused this conflict can be protected under 30/500 per WP:AC/DS. It is certainly agreeable that per WP:BRD, other editor who was disagreeing with the stable version while violating the policy (WP:V, WP:BLPCAT) had to follow WP:BRD, even after all that, the consensus on talk page is clearly supporting my edits. Now that Terabar is going to get blocked anytime and probably not stop socking since its on-going for 9 years already, I believe that solution would be to protect article under 30/500.

- Indian Sikhs of Punjab are Muslims under cover, and they are allied with Pakistan.
- Embracement of gold standard was a Zionist plot
- Hindus are the actual suicide bombers in Pakistan, because they are uncircumcised
- Pakistan's will fly on Delhi Red Fort anytime soon
- Nuclear weapons possessed by the non-Muslim nation will either become obsolete or explode on their own regions.
- In Islamabad, the Pakistan’s elected leaders share same fate as Mohammad Najibullah, dead bodies being hanged on poles.
Capitals00 (talk) 00:45, 31 May 2017 (UTC)

Curiosity
[edit]Hi Capitals00. Just out of curiosity, and as a friendly, interested question: why the shift to the Dravidians as the 'Ur-culture' of India, while Indians have so long emphasized the Aryan heritage? Doesn't that raise a lot of problems for the Indian narratives on the Aryan identity ("Aryan" not as "race" or whatever, but as culture, language, religion, etc.)?

Be warned ...
[edit]... that India is a WP:Featured article, per WP:OWN#Featured_articles please discuss and gain consensus on an article's talk page before making any significant edit, especially in this case, making on-the-fly changes to an edit that was made at the time of an FAR six years ago when dozens of eyes were watching. Hand-waving that some people somewhere allegedly arrives at a consensus doesn't do diddly squat for your edit. Either you make the argument, or they make the argument, but it has to be made in the current thread in Talk:India. The text doesn't say anything about slaves anyway. Be warned again to stop this nonsense. Best regards, Fowler&fowler«Talk» 06:35, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
- @Fowler&fowler: Seems like a misunderstanding here, because the edits I made today are not about "the text" regarding slaves, in Ancient India section of the article but some other section. According to WP:OWN#Featured_articles, "it is considerate to discuss significant changes of text or images on the talk page first" and I am clearly following it. I had only removed the problematic edits today that were made not only without consensus and in fact after total rejection on talk page.(Talk:India/Archive 38#Society section) I have already described it on Talk:India#Challenges.

[edit]Hello Capitals00, as you know, in the years before the 1962 war, there were many clashes between India and China with regards to posts and patrolling in the disputed area, the most prominent being the incident at the Kongka Pass in 1959. Before around 1959, both Indian and Chinese personnel used to patrol the area, but after the war, India was not able to patrol the area as China has complete control. The category Category:Areas_occupied_by_China_after_the_Sino-Indian_War is intended for these kinds of places that India was able to access before 1958-1959, but unable to access after the 1962 war. This is also mentioned in the Category discussion. Hence, I am adding the pages back to the category. I request your understanding in not removing them. Thank you, The Discoverer (talk) 15:39, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
- @The Discoverer: evidently you are the creator of this category, the only promoter as well as the only one to edit war over inserting it. Unless a WP:RS says that these were the regions that came under control of China after Sino-Indian War, then only you can insert them. Otherwise you should stop already. Capitals00 (talk) 16:03, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
- Maybe the category is badly named, in that case you can request for renaming. But there is no other category to classify areas that were accessible to both countries before 1959, but completely controlled by China after the war. The Discoverer (talk) 16:12, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
- I would prefer to continue this discussion on your talk page. Capitals00 (talk) 16:13, 6 September 2017 (UTC)

G5 decline
[edit]Robot editing and script editing is indeed exceptable from the criterion, but here we have content editing too: the removal of the birth date from the infobox in particular is relevant. The criterion's meant to get rid of content that's essentially untouched by another human (basically, would we delete this under G7 if it were requested?), not to cut off our noses and spiting our faces by deleting every page that the evading editor created.

Mercury poisoning
[edit]Please consider adding the word "may" before "contain." My understanding is that in TCM and Ayurvedic products, the problem is an inadvertent contamination of botanical ingredients grown in soil contaminated with heavy metals. I would make the edit, but because I consult to the dietary supplement industry, may be seen as conflict of interest. In homeopathy, the use of a diluted mercury ingredient is deliberate. David notMD (talk) 15:54, 15 October 2017 (UTC)
"Traditional and alternative medicines such as Homeopathy,[18] Traditional Chinese medicine,[19] Ayurvedic medicine, and others contain mercury and other heavy metals.[20]"
- @David notMD: you can propose the edit here. Capitals00 (talk) 16:18, 15 October 2017 (UTC)
- I thought I just did. Anyway, I would be happy with below, which added "may" and removed "and others" after Ayurvedic medicine, as there is no citation for other schools of traditional medicine. By the way, the citation below makes it clear that for certain Ayurvedic products, the introduction of lead, mercury and arsenic is a deliberate part of manufacture.

Hi Capitals00, in regards to this edit Tulsi Giri is quite clearly a convert to the Jehovah's Witness. The source that mentions his conversion was dead due to link rot but I have recently archived the url. Also in regards to this earlier edit I re-added the articles for which I could find reliable third-party sources. If you have a dispute with my usage of citations please send me a message so that the issue can be resolved in a productive way. Thanks Inter&anthro (talk) 06:25, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
- @In: your two sources[27][28] regarding the conversion of Tulsi Giri, doesn't mention "Hindu" or "Hinduism" or "convert" or "conversion". For Vinod Kambli you provided [29][30] mentions no "Hindu" or "Hinduism", and 2nd one mentions no "conversion". Regarding Anju Panta you provided an unreliable source.[31] Rakesh Rajani doesn't mention his own admission.[32]
- You should familiarize yourself with WP:BLPCAT, we need admission of conversion by the subject. Your sources are really far from that. I have posted a warning on your talk page over this BLP violation. Capitals00 (talk) 09:13, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
- In this source it says "Born a Hindu in Mwanza, he went to Isamilo Primary School—which was managed by the Anglican church. He later converted to Christianity as an adult". Now I am no logical mastermind, but if someone says they use to belong to X and now belong to Y, it is completely reasonable to say they went from X to Y. Of course Rajani might have become irreligious or belonged to something else in the in-between time, or maybe deep down secretly never considered himself a Hindu, but there is no mention of that in the article and that is pure speculation. I'm sorry that you don't find the source of Anju Panta reliable but there are plenty more 1 2 that address this topic. Regarding Tulsi Giri during his tenure Nepal was ruled by the Shah dynasty dynasty and by definition was a Hindu state where the King and Government officials had to be Hindu. If Giri was not Hindu there would have been no way he would be able to be appointed to office. Also Jehovah Witnesses are not allowed to sever governments so it would be incredibly unlikely that he was a JW all along. I apologize for the Vinod Kambli article (although both citations clearly mention conversion, you must not have read the second one closely enough) it must have been a confusion with the subject and The Hindu, but either way I was not the one who had added the categories in that case I had just added the citations to the article. I cannot thank you enough for the talk page warning, it has helped advance this discussion beyond words. Inter&anthro (talk) 15:26, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
- That's something he has to tell himself. That he was born as a Hindu and remained Hindu until he converted to Christianity. Don't do WP:SYNTH, don't create relationship between X and Y unless the source clarifies it. Tulsi Giri is also a subject to WP:BLPCAT. Capitals00 (talk) 16:54, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
- That's fine, is it ok if I add the Anju Panta article back to the list? The sources seem to be more clear on that subject, there are more that I didn't provided. Sorry about the sarcasm in the last post, I was a bit mad. Happy editing Inter&anthro (talk) 17:17, 10 November 2017 (UTC)

Warning
[edit]You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Kashmiris. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, 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 Wikipedia. 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. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. JosephusOfJerusalem (talk) 09:43, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

Corrected edits
[edit]Hello, on Muslim conquests of Afghanistan, you had made numerous mistakes. This includes for practice of ancient Hinduism by Kafirs, using a source "Ethnic Groups of North, East, and Central Asia: An Encyclopedia" p. 205 which wrongly mentions Ghaznavid raids into Kafiristan with capture of Nardain in 10th century, however it took place in the 11th century. On p. 217 it also wrongly describes Sabuktigin attacking it in 1020-21 though he died long before in 998. In addition, you wrongly mentioned Al-Beruni describing the Afghans/Pashtuns in 8th century, though his work is from the 10th century as clearly stated by your quote from "The Afghans" by Willem Vogelsang. You also wrongly stated Ferishta as describing them in 10th century, though he was talking about them in 12th century per your source "E.J. Brill's First Encyclopaedia of Islam". He also didn't live until 16th century. In addition, the qutoes you added did not talk about the Afghans ever facing Arab conquests.
As such I've corrected the mistakes. After reverting, I added back your content. I used a reliable author Richard F. Strand as source for the practice of ancient Hinduism by the Kafirs. Also, I shifted the quotes regarding Afghans to a separate section title "Conversion of Pashtun-Afghan people" as much of it doesn't directly concern the Arab or later Ghaznavid conquests. In future, please check your sources before adding so that it isn't as factually wrong information or is content not in source. As your contribution is still quite helpful, so I've preserved it and only corrected poorly sources content or claims not from source. MonsterHunter32 (talk) 23:58, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
- I've also shifted parts of Afghanistan as a political and cultural part of India to the the article lede as well as the lede/summary of the Arab conquests. Since the Arabs couldn't permanently conquer the Indian kingdoms in Afghanistan and only the Saffarids and Ghaznavids defeated them, which I added in the Arabs conquest, it seems suitable there to provide background on them. Also as it concerns the overall situation especially in eastern Afghanistan, it is more suited in the lede. MonsterHunter32 (talk) 00:54, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for keeping my content and correcting a couple of dates. Looks like I accidentally counted back instead of forward with the century or my device autocorrected to wrong dates. I also had some doubts and I was going to recheck as well as add additional source today and this is why I had also left a note on talk page[37] so that you can review these edits since you had removed them in first place.
- It's good to know that keeping these important historical aspects of the article is no longer an issue. Capitals00 (talk) 09:45, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

You undid my edits ([38], [39] ) saying that in both articles, RAW's involvement in Pakistan is not proven. I am not sure should we discuss this separately or in same section, but they look similar so I have added them together. In both cases Pakistan is raising concern that India's spy agency RAW is involved in Pakistan. In case of Kulbhushan Jadhav, he confessed that he was working with RAW and other agencies in India. Then there was a story by The Quint, which was retracted later by Quint. Story talks about the link between RAW and Kulbhushan . Story and its retraction was covered widely ([40] , [41] ). This clearly links RAW with Jadhav. If you read article, there is no confusion, that he was RAW's agent. In case of Insurgency in Balochistan, article is full of India's help provided to Baloch insurgent. If you read Insurgency_in_Balochistan#India, it details sources from Pakistan and from abroad how India is helping insurgent. Read what Wright-Neville, British intelligence, and others. Kulbhushan himself was involved in Balochistan. Let me know your thoughts. --Spasage (talk) 16:12, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
- A fake video proves nothing. Nor the allegations reported by unreliable sources. By making false allegations about a living person, you are violating WP:BLP. I am sending you a warning for this BLP violation on your talk page now. Capitals00 (talk) 16:20, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
- Not sure why you are sending warnings, I picking up from the article. There is whole section talking about confession video which you are saying is fake [[[Kulbhushan_Jadhav#Confession_video]]. Secondly, you are considering [42] , [43] ) as unreliable or fake.--Spasage (talk) 16:33, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
- I said the video was fake and these sources are not enough for proving any involvement. Do you know that International Court of Justice had refused to play that video?[44] Capitals00 (talk) 17:06, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
- I was unable to find any reliable source which says that ICJ refused to see video because it was fake. ICJ can have other reasons to refuse to see video. What is your opinion on story by Quint. Is it unreliable as well. What is your opinion on Balochsitan insurgency and RAW's involvement. --Spasage (talk) 17:49, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
- I think you guessed it because I made no mention of such association. You should be able to find the "other reasons" or just agree that the video lacks any credibility. Few allegations made by Pakistan are not fit enough for inclusion in form of categories. You need neutral sources to confirm the allegations. Why do you think that you are the only person to bother about it? It's because others are aware of WP:CATDEF, but you aren't. Policy says that "Categorization must also maintain a neutral point of view." Your categorizations lacked neutrality that's why I reverted them. Capitals00 (talk) 18:46, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

- I was unable to find any reliable source which says that ICJ refused to see video because it was fake. ICJ can have other reasons to refuse to see video. What is your opinion on story by Quint. Is it unreliable as well. What is your opinion on Balochsitan insurgency and RAW's involvement. --Spasage (talk) 17:49, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

Wikiquote
[edit]You need to apologize for your false accusation of off-wiki canvassing. Perhaps before blaming me of "off-wiki canvassing", you should have read Wikipedia:Canvassing.
There is no bar on sister wikis given in the policy. The only bar is on stealth canvassing. However, Jedi3 has seen my edits and I'm not hiding anything. I'm openly inviting the user to opinionate. I may have given my side of the story but I'm not forcing them or inviting them to influence the discussion. They can comment against me as well.
I didn't engage in anything wrong as far as I know. I don't see the policy forbidding inviting opinions from sister wikis. If anyone who knows the policy better knows I'm wrong, they may correct me. MonsterHunter32 (talk) 20:32, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
- Not sure about the policy, though people get blocked on sister wikis for importing issues from one Wiki to another. Now that action has been already taken on Wikiquote, its not worth it to discuss this any more, not even on Wikiquote. Capitals00 (talk) 08:43, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
- Oh so you admit you were complaining on an ill-define concept? Actually no action has been taken. The interaction ban was for another issue. Besides actual canvassing has been done openly. I only invited the user to comment. Administrators haven't raised an issue against it. MonsterHunter32 (talk) 20:23, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
For the Record
[edit]The sourced content which you initially removed by terming it as conspiracies, and later claimed it to be copyvio once you were warned for not assuming good faith was infact not a copyvio. I invite you to show me how the sourced content that you removed, first by citing improper reason and then by terming it as copyvio, was a copyvio?—TripWire________ʞlɐʇ 09:03, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
- If you were really willing to WP:GAME system to this extent, you would've already restored the copyright violation but you know if you did you will end up getting blocked given you have been already warned for copyright violations many times,[45][46][47] but given your incompetence and WP:IDHT issues you just can't understand a thing and relies upon gaming the system instead. The edit you restored as disruptive and should never be restored. Capitals00 (talk) 09:32, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
- I asked you a simple question, the sourced content that you removed was not a copyvio as you falsely claimed (even though you had initially removed it by citing a false reason namely conspiracies and then once you were warned you changed your stance and termed it as a copyvio when your WP:DE was caught), Please show me how that sourced content was a copyvio instead of digging my past. Also, explain how was restoring a sourced content disruptive as you are claiming?—TripWire________ʞlɐʇ 09:38, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
- I didn't even saw your frivolous warning I just went ahead to write a note on your talk page, highlighting your history of mass disruption and continued violation of copyrights as well as disruptive editing and you reverted with a meaningless edit summary despite you are being the problematic editor. and you should not be adding them. Check the dawn.com link with what you are restoring, you were violating copyrights. You should better blame your incompetence that you can't even detect what is a copyright violation despite you have been warned enough times for your copyright violations. Making these excuses or asking useless questions whose answer you already know won't help you. Capitals00 (talk) 09:53, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

Stop edit-warring
[edit]You've reverted twice on the same article. The situation is not solved by resorting to reverts and false accusations. And don't personally attack others by calling them incompetent.

The source I used is from Professor Irfan Habib and Aligarh Muslim University. They are reliable sources. If you have a contrary opinion, then you can add it with reliable sources. But don't make false accusations nor use them to edit-war. MonsterHunter32 (talk) 18:55, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

Your email
[edit]Hi Capitals00. Regarding your email, yes, I've been following the AE report. I haven't commented, and don't intend to get involved, because it is far better that admins unfamiliar with the area review the report and decide on what action to take. The actual sanction is not very punitive and you can continue to edit in areas that don't involve the India-Pakistan conflict. My suggestion is that you do just that and appeal the sanctions six months or an year down the road. Frankly, I think it is time that all the sanctioned editors take a break from the India-Pakistan conflict pages, for their own health as well as for the health of Wikipedia. Best wishes. --regentspark (comment) 12:09, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

Reverting and striking
[edit]Just because you can revert and strike stuff doesn't mean you should. Your recent efforts in the ANI thread and SPI aren't a great idea, if only because you are involved. - Sitush (talk) 06:03, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
The striking at ANI has now been reverted by myself and two admins. Surely enough is enough? - Sitush (talk) 06:12, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
- I am not going to revert it, but you are wrong with your interpretation. Where does WP:SOCKSTRIKE says you have to be involved or not? Sock is a sock and anyone can revert or strike. Capitals00 (talk) 06:16, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
- That is an essay. Look, common sense and propriety would tell many people that if they're involved in something it is not a great idea to censor what their "opponents" might say. There are plenty of other people around who are not involved and can make a determination. It just looks bad and, really, doesn't achieve much of merit. - Sitush (talk) 06:20, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
- What Sitush said. I reverted you at ANI; you proceeded to do the same thing elsewhere. All it does is to make it harder for other folks to track the sock's behavior, and to make you appear vindictive. Vanamonde (talk) 06:29, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
- Sock was the one who reverted the strike.[48] Not you. Read WP:SOCKSTRIKE, it was completely sensible after the sock was blocked. How does it make harder for people to realize that a sock is being ignored? You can look "vindictive" towards harassment socks.
- Sitush, well that essay that shows how things should be practiced and it happens every time. Do you have any essay for supporting your assertion? The person is no longer a "supporter" or "opponent" when he is a sock, and this sock is evading block 100s of times in a week. You need to encourage him to come clean instead, until then stick to WP:SOCKSTRIKE. Capitals00 (talk) 06:42, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
- While I support the use of WP:SOCKSTRIKE, it is customary to allow suspected socks to contribute to SPI pages in their defence etc. As for the other aspect, the complaint was about you and a few others, so you shouldn't be the ones striking it, even after a block (note that I only said it's an obvious sock, I don't know if it was a bad hand account of a regular editor or a blocked account), and my blocking reason was more along the lines of disruption and in this case you shouldn't be striking anything. If it should have been done, I'd have done that when I blocked. Whether sockstrike includes words on involvement or not, it's plain common sense that one shouldn't revert or strike when the complaint is about them. —SpacemanSpiff 06:56, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

Edit summaries, yet again.
[edit]For goodness sake, Capitals00. this looks like you're removing a perfectly reasonable talk page post. Very few people know it's Wikiexplorer; most of the page watchers probably don't. You're actually strengthening his hand by not displaying due courtesy in response. Do you really need to be dragged to ANI just to be compelled to use edit summaries? Vanamonde (talk) 04:43, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Why you are the only person in the world who has to worry about it? Everyone who has recently edited that talk page, and so do entire WP:AIV now knows that it's Wikiexplorer13, see his block log. It was not a "perfectly reasonable" post, it was just a bunch of canvassing and harassment. No wonder that sock loves to mimic you,[49][50] since he find you to be favorable towards him. Capitals00 (talk) 04:52, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Claiming I favor the sockmaster is silly: I've blocked him on multiple occasions, and he knows it. Why is it so difficult for you to type "sock of Wikiexplorer13" into the edit summary? It will take you literally a second for each edit. Nobody else seems to care because it's an obscure article and because nobody wishes to wade into the morass that is south Asian politics, but trust me, if you continue to refuse to use an edit summary, I will find people who care. Vanamonde (talk) 05:21, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Rollback allows reverting disruptive socks. It is not to say that I never type it. See [51][52], when it is not known to others and I have been doing this long before your message.[53] Best you should do now is to leave it as it is, and let others object if they see the problem, though I find it unlikely that anyone will since the sock has popularized himself so much that there are hoards of admins who are ready to block him 24x7. Capitals00 (talk) 05:27, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- If you had used rollback, I would have been fine with it; because rollback itself is a tool meant for this sort of thing, it's use is regulated, and edits with it are tagged, allowing watchers to know that someone disruptive was being reverted. You're wrong that nobody cares: Drmies told MBlaze off for exactly this behavior very recently [54], with the same sockmaster, too. Just use edit summaries and make life easier for everyone else. Vanamonde (talk) 05:36, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Yes those recent reverts I made involved use of rollback, in fact every other editors and admins are using rollback now.[55][56][57] I didn't said that nobody cares I said that if someone has issue they can complain me but I haven't seen any until now and it's even more impossible because the sock is highly repetitive, making it very easy for others to identify who's sock he is and also the daily appearance of reports on WP:AIV that concerns his on-going abuse. Capitals00 (talk) 05:46, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- That's not rollback [58] . That's twinkle rollback: they're very different. I didn't realize you didn't have the rollback flag. It's usually given out with the PC reviewer flag. In any case; if you don't have it, you can't use it, and so you should use edit summaries. Vanamonde (talk) 05:53, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Also "nobody has complained and so my behavior is fine" is no justification at all. Vanamonde (talk) 05:54, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Well, everyone is following the same standards for socks that I have been, that's why no one has complained. Rollback and Twinkle rollback are tagged differently but policies/use of rollback is same as that for twinkle rollback as per the link and there have been proposals before to remove the default rollback for those reasons as twinkle rollback does its job. I have submitted a request for rollback.[59] Capitals00 (talk) 06:05, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Vanamonde, as far as I'm concerned, and I believe we've had consensus for this in ANI and other places, any kind of rollback has to meet "rollback requirements". I believe also that there was a consensus for denying editors the right to use Twinkle or whatever kind of tool was used if they failed to abide by those rules. (Note that I haven't looked at the diffs here and have no opinion on them.) Thanks, Drmies (talk) 15:06, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- @Drmies: Well, it is possible that I am wrong about using rollback on socks, and best practice is just not to. The basic point here, though, is that I'm asking Capitals00 to use edit summaries when reverting a sock, which is what earned MBLaze a talking-to from you. Cheers, Vanamonde (talk) 15:19, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Those were the sockmaster's earliest days of frequent ban evasion. Situation is too different that you have to just rollback his edits[60] and report to WP:AIV by citing necessary details[61] and he is blocked![62] This whole thing takes 5 minutes or less now, unlike early days when it took ages to block him. I do mention when it seems necessary.[63] I used to mention that in edit summaries since the beginning when the sock was not known to others.[64] Now he is well known in AIV and also in most of the articles where he carries out his revert-spree. Capitals00 (talk) 16:10, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- "well known in AIV" may be true sometimes, but I do not advocate the whole "the admins will know" kind of thing. Vanamonde is absolutely correct in saying that edit summaries, while not mandatory in all cases, are the kind of thing that help admins. If I run into a set of unexplained reverts and the AIV report says "sock", I may just skip it because I may not want to plow through all the diffs and ask around. So, the sooner you want action, the more detailed you should be. Drmies (talk) 16:58, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

[edit]I'm not entirely sure why you referred to the edits I made to Margaret Workman as unhelpful. I was attempting to clean up the article. If you notice where you reverted my edits, the article format is now completely messed up (for example Justice Workman's name is on a separate line from the first line of the article). In addition, the article as you restored it has information, while sourced, that has absolutely nothing to do with Justice Workman specifically. Finally, information about Justice Workman's impeachment should be under the impeachment category, not the top of the article.

!vote at AfD Religious violence in Orissa
[edit]Hi - I may be wrong, hence this note, but as far as I can see you are still subject to a topic ban on India-Pakistan conflict, broadly construed. If that is correct, you will need to strike your !vote in the AfD on Religious violence in Orissa. The 1964 Rourkala riots in Orissa had their origins in the treatment of Hindus during the East Pakistan riots at that time. I assume in good faith you were not aware of this event, it's not discussed in the article at present and and I have only raised this in the AfD discussion subsequent to your !vote. If the topic ban no longer applies, my apologies and please ignore my comment. Regards,--Goldsztajn (talk) 16:58, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

Edit to Hinduism and Sikhism
[edit]Could you please explain you recent edit to Hinduism and Sikhism? You removed two section which appear to have been well sourced without any explanation. The sections in question were "Sutak and Patak" and "Demonic possession". You also removed the section title for "Guru Tegh Bahadur", as well a paragraph on Sikh's defending persecuted Hindus during the Mughal era. All the above content appears to have been well sourced, and was removed with explanation or discussion. Boardwalk.Koi (talk) 23:56, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Boardwalk.Koi: "Sutak and Patak" lacks proper sourcing. Unistar Books is a pro-Sikh source and another source by UNC press only made a passing mention but no mention of Sikhism.
- Demonic possession too involved only passing mention about Sikhism with the words that it "do not allow for the possibility of spirit possession".
- The sub-heading about Guru Tegh Bahadur was limiting the scope of the section, that's why removed. Capitals00 (talk) 03:09, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

[edit] You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Read WP:STONEWALLING. Johnbod (talk) 23:50, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics
[edit]You have recently edited a page related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an 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.

- Hello @Capitals00. I am writing to you so that we can avoid another dispute regarding content on Father of the Nation. Don't revert me before discussing as that was added by a third user not a party in dispute. You removed Unofficial from Gandhi saying that was agreed on talk page which never was. Rather Toddy added unofficial and then the discussion ended without a proper close. Although I have closed it now since last was was 3 days ago that too by me. I have mentioned in the result to remove Lukashenko as you did. Since you said that the title is an honorific one but at the same time it has been conferred upon some individuals officially by countries like Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and some are called by people like M.K. Gandhi. So my suggestion is that people should know the difference between two. I would request you to put official and unofficial against every name. This will make the list more authentic and would avoid any future disputes. Hope you take this in good faith. Shaan SenguptaTalk 04:49, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Shaan Sengupta: The problem now is that your summary when closing the discussion ("Remove Lukashenko and try to add official and unofficial against every name mentioned in the list to avoid the feeling of someone being singled out. That will make list more authentic and would end future problems.") in no way reflects the consensus at that discussion. It's simply you repeating your own view. As such a further dispute is almost inevitable I'd have thought. Nigej (talk) 05:40, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Nigej No consensus had been reached there. @Capitals00 told to remove Lukashenko and no one objected. So that is justified. As for Gandhi I gave the best solution I could give. You said that Rehman was given the title offically didn't mean that it is not Honarary. It means that Honarary doesn't differentiate in official and unofficial. It can be both at the same time. So what is better way to differentiate between the two. If you have some other idea please give. If it is better then we can surely implement. Shaan SenguptaTalk 06:16, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Shaan Sengupta: The reality is that you want something but no one else agreed with you. To me there's consensus for exactly the opposite of what you said in your closure. I'd recommend undoing your close, as a first stage, if you really want to avoid further dispute. Nigej (talk) 06:22, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
- Toddy somewhat aggreed to what I said. That's why he did that. I will remove the result at the top. I am out of this. You guys can do what you want. Its been so long now. I don't want to be stuck here any longer. I thought this might end today. Because I give a total neutral suggestion but it simply won't. If you want to reopen that discussion please go ahead. I won't interfere and have no problem. Shaan SenguptaTalk 06:39, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
- Wait I shall just undo the close. So that noone drags me again. I am also withdrawing my concern. Consider this so. Shaan SenguptaTalk 06:41, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

[edit]Hi, I have seen your edits on the page Bharat Ratna. You being an experienced editor, let us discuss and come to a conclusion on what needs to be kept rathern than going back and forth. I was making intermediate changes and for now, have published the section as is. I believe that the award to Nehru and Gandhi might need a mention as it has been raked up in the past by others as well. Though the recent happening was due to the issue raised by a party and the sources (Wire, Quint) are also not so impartial, we can skip this with a single line of mention rather than detail. Let me know your comments and let us make the changes accordingly. Thanks! Magentic Manifestations (talk) 05:16, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- @Magentic Manifestations: Your edit is still not providing accurate information. It is trying to show as if there was any criticism at the time when they got Bharat Ratna, but in actual, only Hindutva supporters are spreading misinformation in the 21st century as clearly noted by The Wire and Quint. There is no serious disagreement over it. Your Wikipedia edit looks nothing more than giving undue weight for Hindutva propaganda. You should remove it. Capitals00 (talk) 05:32, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- I have shortened it to a one-liner as a statement. Removed the criticism part and the excessive explanation and text, which is fine enough as a mention. Magentic Manifestations (talk) 05:38, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

BAPS Hindu Mandir Abu Dhabi page
[edit]Hi @Capitals00 I saw you re-added the content related to the land donation. I actually read the two sources before I removed and seems it doesn't sound correct. Not sure if you have read the two cited sources, but the two sources says:
- "It is not clear if Sunday's announcement referred to the same land" - which means this source is not sure about what they are saying?
- "businessman donated five acres of land adjoining a mosque" - seems this land is 27 acres and don't think there is adjoining mosque reference in any recent sources, so was wondering if this was indeed true, then probably was some other land they were going/planning to donate in 2013 and not this one?
And all other recent and past sources says that UAE govt. donated. So was wondering what you think about the only 2 sources cited there saying differently than all other sources could be considered reliable? Asteramellus (talk) 03:36, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- Removed. I agree that the relevance is doubtful. Capitals00 03:46, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- @Capitals00 thanks, yes definitely relevance is doubtful. Regarding the other change I had removed and you had added back - ".. the third Hindu temple in the UAE ...was created in 1958 ..second temple was created in 2022" - I had removed that because lead usually includes major things from the body of the page and didn't see such details on the page. I was wondering if we should add such detail on maybe the Hinduism in UAE or Hinduism in Middle East pages or other related page because this page is about this specific one. What do you think? Asteramellus (talk) 04:09, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- Addressed with this edit. Capitals00 (talk) 05:50, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- @Capitals00 Yes thanks, though I am not completely sure if it fits in the Construction section and also considered significant enough to include in lead. But do want to make sure that by saying "third Hindu temple" (which the source doesn't say), we are not doing something that is WP:OR. Asteramellus (talk) 12:09, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

RFC formatting
[edit]Hello, Capitals,
Just so you know, the actual "standard RfC format" is to have no subsections at all. Four out of five RfCs don't use separate sections for survey and discussion.
If you're interested in RFCs, you might look over Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Example formatting. This is not a big deal, but I thought you might be interested in knowing more about what's actually standard. WhatamIdoing (talk) 22:55, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
