Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, Hungersaviour, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Shahi paneer, seem to be advertising or for promotional purposes. Wikipedia does not allow advertising. For more information on this, please see:

[edit]

Information icon Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Shahi paneer. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Girth Summit (blether) 09:59, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That site you keep adding

[edit]

Hi - that site you keep adding is a blog - it is not a reliable source. There is more on this at WP:RS. It is not an appropriate source for use on Wikipedia, and the content you are adding is not written in a neutral, encyclopedic style. Please stop trying to add it - your repeated reinstatements amount to edit warring, which will result in your account being blocked from editing.

Here's an example of what I mean. The first paragraph of your addition runs like this: History begins in the rich Indian royal kitchens when expert cooks created elaborate delicacies for kings and queens. Shahi Paneer stands up to its royal name—the word "Shahi" itself means "royal" in Hindi. We can find its origins in the Mughal era, where the emperors' patron allowed for the flourishing of cooking creations. Assuming any of this is verifiable, we need to remove subjective commentary, puffery and the use of the first person to refer to the author and reader, stripping the content down to something like this: "The dish, whose name means 'royal paneer', originated in the royal kitchens of Mughal-era India." The rest is superfluous - Wikipedia isn't a food blog, we write neutrally and factually, and we don't refer to ourselves or the reader in our prose.
