DS Alert

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at Talk:Ramgarhia, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. Sitush (talk) 21:21, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for the suggestion, it was most helpful

Warning

Hi, Johnsimpson. Here, you denied being the IP whose removal of sourced content had caused the article to be protected, but as far as I'm concerned, this edit, where you made a correction while logged out to something you had just posted, proves that you and the IP are one and the same. Or do you still deny it? It's much harder to discuss things on Wikipedia if people aren't upfront about the edits they've made. You can be blocked for something like that, but I've decided to merely warn you. Bishonen | talk 18:11, 10 January 2018 (UTC).
