Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. S. M. Nazmus Shakib (talk) 09:48, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on North East Delhi riots; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that 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.

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.

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.
Please stop attacking other editors, as you did on Talk:North East Delhi riots. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. S. M. Nazmus Shakib (talk) 10:25, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. ⋙–DBigXrayᗙ 08:45, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
- Stop sending baseless block notices without proper reasoning as your edits to the North East Delhi riots seems to be more of conflict of interest. There was no discussion about the role of Ishrat Jahan in the Delhi riots prior to the one I'd started here. Despite citing the facts from the well-reliable souces reverts were made from your side without proper reasoning or discussing the matter. It looks like you are involved more in the clean-up of the articles as you are intentionally hiding the discussions by archiving it which can be clearly seen on the talk page of the article as well as your talk page. It seems, there is a need for a neutral reviewer on the matter as your edits seem to be more of conflict of interest. — Sanskari Hangout 08:58, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
- There is no conflict of interest, and repeatedly claiming as such without basis is a Personal attack and wP:ASPERSION. If you repeat this, I will have to open an wP:ACDS case to put an end to it. ⋙–DBigXrayᗙ 09:00, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

Notice that you are now subject to an arbitration enforcement topic ban
The following topic ban now applies to you:
You have been topic banned from Indian subjects, broadly construed.
You have been sanctioned for battleground editing in the area, and specifically because of your harassment and WP:ABF against DBigXray and others in this request at WP:COIN. You seem to be accusing DBigXray of things at random, especially in the six points that follow the phrase "It seems User:DBigXray have a strong conflict on interest on the topic which can be seen", in the hope that something will stick. (Do you really think being Indian is a "conflict of interest" on Indian articles? How about American editors editing about American politics? Should they be prevented from doing that?) You don't seem to know what a "conflict of interest" is. Our noticeboards are not intended for persecution of your enemies.
This topic ban is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/India-Pakistan#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. Please read WP:TBAN to understand what a topic ban is. If you do not comply with the topic ban, you may be blocked for an extended period to enforce the ban.
If you wish to appeal the ban, please read the appeals process. Bishonen | tålk 18:13, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Problems
- Readers who were not logged in briefly saw the interface in a language decided by their browser. It should normally be in the language of the wiki. This happened for a short period of time last week. This was because of a bug. [6]
Changes later this week
- If you forget your password you can ask for a new one to be sent to your email address. You need to know your email address or your username. You will now be able to choose that you need to enter both your email address and your username. This will be a preference. This is to get fewer password reset emails someone else asked for. [7]
- When you asked for a new password you could see if the username didn't exist on Special:PasswordReset. Now the page will show the username you entered and tell you an email has been sent if the username exists. This is for better security. [8]
- On Special:WhatLinksHere you can see what other pages link to a page. You can see if the link is from a redirect. You can now see which section the redirect links to. [9]
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 3 March. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 4 March. It will be on all wikis from 5 March (calendar).
Future changes
- The developers are working on a new interface to solve edit conflicts on talk pages. You can give feedback. [10]
- There is a vote on the creation of a new user group called abuse filter manager. The vote runs from March 1 to March 31 on Meta.
wgMFSpecialCaseMainPage
was used for the mobile site. It was deprecated in 2017. It will stop working in April. Wikis should see if they use it. If they do they should fix it. You can read more and ask for help. This affects 183 wikis. There is a list. [11]
