Problems with upload of File:Sri Lanka Air Force Beechcraft 200T Super King Air.jpgThanks for uploading File:Sri Lanka Air Force Beechcraft 200T Super King Air.jpg.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. 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. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. Andrew (talk) 00:48, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

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 this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put

Please stop adding unreferenced or poorly referenced biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Rayappu Joseph. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. obi2canibetalk contr 13:25, 4 October 2014 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Special Task Force, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. obi2canibetalk contr 12:01, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content, as you did to Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting 2013, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. obi2canibetalk contr 17:38, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
Without citing reliable source? first read the article will you! I added only the governments heads who came to meeting! Read participanst section! why you only mention the small protests without mentioning their participants?? This article is not balanced! You ruin every Sri Lankan related article! what is your purpose? to build Eelam on Wikipedia? LOL nice try Randeepa
- If the the participants have been listed in the Participants section why do you need to mention it in the Boycott section as well?. And why do insert contents before existing references, making them look like they are referenced when they aren't? What is your purpose?--obi2canibetalk contr 20:08, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
- Boycott section must include people who boycott this event.If leader of that country participated then how you insert that country into boycott list?? tell me it first? Some small political parties or political organizations can have different views. Is it thing to concern about? If it is so then must include that country participated or not! because small group of people's view doesn't represent country's view! Randeepa

Please do not add or change content, as you did at No. 2 Squadron SLAF, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. obi2canibetalk contr 20:08, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
No. 2 Squadron SLAF
Dear friend,
I noticed that you have reverted an edit made by Obi2canibe in the relevant article. If you look at the history, he has given a valid reason according to the wiki guidelines. As he correctly mentioned, the relevant information wasn't in the given reference. (It says Sri Lanka air force but not specify No 2 squadron) All this reverts could have been avoided by giving a correct source.
I know editing in Wikipedia can be sometimes stressful and even emotional. But all of us are here for a single purpose, to create a encyclopedia. We can avoid lots of misunderstandings by just respecting opinions and views of others .
If you need any advice, help and sources, just contact us in WikiProject Sri Lanka.

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.

Reference errors on 10 August
Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:
- On the Sinhalese people page, your edit caused a broken reference name (help). (Fix | Ask for help)
Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, ReferenceBot (talk) 00:20, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 02:21, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

Blocked for sockpuppetry
 | This account has been blocked from editing for a period of 2 weeks for sock puppetry per evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Randeepa. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but using them for illegitimate reasons is not, and that any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted. Once the block has expired, you're welcome to make useful contributions. If you believe that this block was in error, and you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}} below.

Sockpuppet Investigation
Randeepa (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I have contributed more than 1000 editing for more than 4 years from this account and there is no reason for me to create another profile. but my brother created his own account and started to become wikipedian. I did not do any single illegitimate editing for my 1000 more wiki editing s. So I don't understand why my account has been blocked. So Please take necessary action to remove this ban
Decline reason:
You are blocked because it is impossible to distinguish between your account and Editor 888 (talk · contribs), and according to the available evidence, it looks like both accounts are being operated by the same person. —DoRD (talk) 18:46, 25 April 2017 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
Randeepa (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
DoRD (talk) Can you please tell what are those available evidence rather than making assumption? Can anyone block based on assumptions even wikipedia allows multiple accounts for llegitimate reasons. Is assumption based blocking is ok or Can you tell what are those evidence? Randeepa (talk)
Decline reason:
Procedural decline, no unblock reason given. The evidence is presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Randeepa/Archive. Yunshui 雲水 09:10, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Randeepa, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to The Sunday Leader have been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.
- 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 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 designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk 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 can, but please follow the steps in 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. I've also removed the content from Gotabhaya Rajapaksa. Thanks, Thank you. /wiae /tlk 13:21, 6 May 2017 (UTC)
Wikimedia Community User Group Sri Lanka

Dear Randeepa,
Thank you for your contributions to the Wikimedia Projects. As an editor from Sri Lanka, you are warmly invited to join the official Wikimedia Community User Group Sri Lanka and to subscribe to its mailing list, Wikimedia-LK. The user group currently includes volunteers from Wikipedia and other projects, from the English, Sinhala, and Tamil speaking communities. It is the Wikimedia-approved platform for editors from Sri Lanka to enable wider collaboration, for both online and offline projects. With your support, we hope to organize cross-project content improvement drives as part of online projects, as well as organize in-person edit-a-thons, training sessions, photowalks, and other such activities, in the near future. The ultimate goal(s) of these initiatives is to improve the overall coverage and quality of topics relating to Sri Lanka, as well as encourage new editors to join the Wikimedia community, while simultaneously empowering and retaining our existing team of editors. There are no mandatory obligations for members who choose join the community, other than the usual editing rules for online projects, and the friendly space policy for in-person projects. You may also (or instead) subscribe to the mailing list, where any member could initiate discussions with volunteers across projects, notify members of events and meetings, stay up to date with competitions, organize your own events, and so on. See you on board, and Happy Editing! |

"Minor" edits
Hi Randeepa. I noticed a lot of the edits you make are marked as minor edits, even when you add or remove chunks of text and reorder articles extensively. Please note that edits are only supposed to be marked as "minor" if the changes are relatively insgnificant, such as correcting spelling or grammatical errors, resizing an image, adding or removing bold or italics etc. Please have a look at WP:MINOR before marking any more changes as minor ones. - ක - (talk) 13:33, 22 October 2017 (UTC)

Your recent edit to Sri Lanka Air Force

If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help Desk. Please do not remove content without explaining why you're doing it - ක - (talk) 12:15, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
- @Randeepa: Can you please explain why you keep removing the image? I can't seem to follow the reason you've given on the page - ක - (talk) 12:24, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
- @Jesuschristonacamel: As I said it would be enough with one F7 image on that place. "Sri Lanka Air Force Chengdu F-7GS"(Sri Lanka Military 0042.jpg) image is better quality and has close look. So it would be enough to that place. There are plenty of aircraft images in wikipedia after every independence day each year. They all are adding those images to main page. If you want that image in the main page add it into the Gallery. Gallery includes flying formation images like this and also i have added that image to relevant squadron page.

Global Sri Lankan Forum moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Global Sri Lankan Forum, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. ... discospinster talk 19:35, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
It's a pity that I have to explain the basics of Wikipedia to someone who has been editing for more than five years. WP:ALSO states that "As a general rule, the "See also" section should not repeat links that appear in the article's body or its navigation boxes". Sri Lankan diaspora and Tamil diaspora are not only linked in the opening sentence of Sri Lankan Tamil diaspora they are also included in the navigation boxes at the foot of the article.--Obi2canibe (talk) 11:52, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Arjuna Mahendran into Ranil Wickremesinghe. 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) 14:30, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
