Mentioning caste of living people[edit]

In the case of living people, please only add their caste-related details if they self-identify with a particular caste – see here for details. It seems self-identification is missing in most of your recent edit at Sunar, so I will revert it. Also, in the case of non-living people, the source should explicitly state that they belong to so-and-so caste. You cannot just guess on the basis of their surname. So please be careful. - NitinMlk (talk) 19:04, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding unreliable sources[edit]

Please do not cite Raj-era sources and user-generated content. They are considered unreliable on this project. To familiarise with unacceptable sources, see WP:RAJ. In fact, this project mainly accepts scholarly sources for caste/history-related details – see WP:HISTRS. - NitinMlk (talk) 19:04, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please use a single account[edit]

Hello, BhaujanStar, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as DalitRaj (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. -- RoySmith (talk) 22:34, 15 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright[edit]

Control copyright icon Hello BhaujanStar, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Daya Singh Arif 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. 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.
  • We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. All other images must be made available under a free and open license that allows commercial and derivative reuse to be used on Wikipedia.
  • 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.
  • 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) 15:25, 21 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
