User talk:Jasksingh

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Editing tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Simplified Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

• Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
• Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
• Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
• No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
• Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! Liz ^Read!

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Culture and menstruation into Women in Sikhism. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 14:27, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edit reversion

In this edit here, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of our copyright policy.

I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted. If that information is not sufficient to explain the situation, please ask.S Philbrick(Talk) 15:49, 14 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

April 2020

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to 2020 coronavirus lockdown in India, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Dey subrata (talk) 07:54, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. In the source cited, it is no where written that devotees, who assembled at the temples, attacked police. What is written is when police tried to stop people from assembling at tea stall then they were attacked. Quoting the exact line:

Meanwhile, several police personnel were attacked and their vehicles were ransacked by locals in Goaltore area of West Midnpore for stopping them to assemble at a tea stall, a senior officer of the district police said.

Whereas the language of the wikipedia article suggests that devotees attacked the police. That is why I removed the attack part of line. Jasksingh (talk) 08:23, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Then you need to include the latter information too, at the end of that line. I've reverted just checking if there was any attack on police. Now seeing its different incident, you can remove the information from that line but need to add another line of the attack. Also a request from my side, include the today's incident of Patiala too, in this article and also at the main article at appropriate section. Dey subrata (talk) 16:06, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Please be careful in future before reverting any change. Jasksingh (talk) 13:42, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please be careful when you remove something without properly addressing a topic, and FYI, I had already asked you to go through policies and guidelines, had you read before, you should not have mentioned the above unnecessary comment, go though WP:BRD by heart. Dey subrata (talk) 16:11, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I was careful in my initial change. That is why I gave the following descriptive reason when I made the initial change:

In the news report cited, it is nowhere mentioned that devotees attacked the police. So, removing it.

The above edit summary was self explanatory. But, still you reverted my change without applying the principle of WP:BRD which says "Revert only when neccessary" (I suppose it applies to you as much as to me). Although I do appreciate that you reached out to me on my talk page. But, in any case, have some humility to accept if you have made a mistake. Jasksingh (talk) 10:26, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

DS Alert

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

A barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar

Hi Jasksingh, I like the page on Sheikh Farid Ganjshakar which I think you have mainly contributed to. However, I would like to get hold of the 1995 article by Prof. Omer Tarin which (I think) you added as a reference. I was not able to get hold of it even after writing to his staff, as they no longer have his papers from before 2000. Do you know how I can read this article? (Sorry, I am new to writing on Wikipedia so I may not be using the messaging facility properly.) Thanks a lot. Kalpya (talk) 20:59, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

July 2020

Stop edit warring on Hinduism and Sikhism. You had almost a month to address your problematic edits on the article but all you did was say "regarding your claim that sources referenced by me are not comparing both the religions then I would say it goes the same with the version of the article"[1] thus admitting that my concerns about your edits are completely correct. But now you have started to edit war, in order to obstruct any constructive changes and misrepresent sources on the talk page by ignoring the very page number which was cited on the article,[2] falsely accuse me of failing to address your non-policy complaint issue and more.

You have been already warned about your editing before, but now if you attempted to intentionally misrepresent sources or demonstrated your article ownership in violation of WP:OWN, then I will need to report you. Azuredivay (talk) 04:34, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I have replied you on Hinduism and Sikhism talk page. But, the edits that you are calling as "constructive" and the version that you are calling as "last good version" is also having many sections without sources comparing both religions. Also, some of the "constructive edits" that you are talking about are having citation errors. I have always been willing to address any concerns regarding my edits. That is why I removed primary source of Guru Granth Sahib and also many unreliable sources from my the sections that I added. But, it seems like you are only interested in raising concerns about others' edits but not address concerns raised about your own edits. So, if you continue making and supporting edits with a particular point of view ignoring WP:NPOV then before you report me, I will need to report you.

Notice of sockpuppetry block

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for abusing multiple accounts per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Jasksingh. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Mz7 (talk) 14:22, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Jasksingh, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Hinduism and Sikhism have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 19:53, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Jasksingh. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Sadhu Dayanand Te Mera Samvaad".

An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^Read! Talk! 20:03, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

November 2020

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Shambuka. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Wareon (talk) 04:22, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Read WP:FRINGE and don't push a view as mainstream that is contradicted by scholars. Wareon (talk) 04:23, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You haven't pointed any particular edit of mine which you found to be disruptive. But, I suppose it is the edit where I stressed on mentioning the "Shambuka story as interpolation" as view of most scholars rather than a fact. It is clear that I am not trying to push any view leave alone pushing that view as mainstream. Instead, I just want to make sure that opinions should not be presented as facts in accordance with WP:NPOV. So, your accusation is completely misplaced.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Shambuka, you may be blocked from editing. You are doing same WP:DE for which you have been warned above. Wareon (talk) 02:28, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The majority view of "scholars" is treated as a fact on Wikipedia. Since scholarly sources are of highest quality.

But if you are still finding it difficult to understand then read this: "by now, it can be confirmly said the 'Uttarkand' of Ramayana is an interpolation of quite later period"[3]

So why we shouldn't treat it as a 'fact'? Wareon (talk) 02:40, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WP:POINT and misrepresentation of sources

Refrain from making problematic edits like this. It is nowhere mentioned that it is the 'biggest' superspreader. 1,700 covid cases are not comparable with 22,000 quarantines involving Tablighi Jamaat event that contributed to the 30% cases of that time. Can you tell how much % some 1700 or 2000 cases constitute the total 15 million coronavirus cases of India?

See WP:FALSEBALANCE and don't engage in making a WP:POINT. Aman Kumar Goel ^(Talk) 05:44, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You are making a wrong comparison of 1700 cases vs 22000 quarantines. 1700 is the actual number of covid cases in Kumbh (during a 5 day period) and 22000 was the number of quarantines due to Tablighi Jamaat event. Actual number of cases linked to Tablighi Jamaat event were 4514 [4] whereas some news articles have mentioned actual number of cases linked to Kumbh to as high as 5000. In any case, I have added a detailed description on the article's talk page about why Kumbh is a super spreader event and why it requires as much attention as the Tablighi Jamaat event. So, we can further discuss it there. Jasksingh (talk) 10:23, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
