Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to History of Bengal may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

Please do not add or change content, as you did to Kharavela, without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Which is it? This edit of yours[1] says "Thereby Kharavela, avenged this psychological loss of the Jain statue, a symbol of Kalinga pride, at the hands of Ashoka Maurya." Earlier this month[2] you change it to " at the hands of the Nanda emperors of Magadha. " Dougweller (talk) 20:44, 25 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies, will respond to your email here on this page this weekend. Dougweller (talk) 21:01, 27 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As I've said above, you need to be using sources that meet our criteria, and certainly shouldn't add material or change material in such a way that it denies the source. Another example: you wrote "and is said to have marched deeper into Vijayanagara territory a few miles from the imperial capital." No source for 'is said' - which means anyone can delete it as unsourced. Note that we are looking not for web pages but for academic sources - books and articles. With [3] you are deciding which is right and which is wrong, and rewriting the article so that Wikipedia is asserting which side is right. Please read WP:NPOV. Here[4] you have added sources. However, we never use our own articles as sources, and I can't see how Tarakanta Mohanty and the magazine meet our criteria at WP:RS. If you disagree you can take this to WP:RSN, but at best it could be used to present one view, not to eliminate another from the article. It isn't up to us to add 'incorrectly' to 'believe' and language such as "as a matter of fact" should never be used in articles. Dougweller (talk) 13:47, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your email, but discussions should really take place openly on talk pages. Preferably the talk pages of the relevant articles. Why don't you start a discussion on one of them and then post to my talk page telling me you've started it. Thanks. Dougweller (talk) 18:05, 17 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
