[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Deepender Singh Hooda has been reverted.
Your edit here to Deepender Singh Hooda was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://twitter.com/DeependerSHooda) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.

Information icon Your recent edit to Comparison of project management software appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person or organization added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Vyapam scam, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ghaziabad. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Blocked as a sockpuppet

[edit]
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Katyaan (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

Hi. First of all, I would like to apologize for not reading the editing guidelines properly. I was under the impression that I could ask for support from editors not only for editing a Wiki page but also for other matters as well. That's why I asked Expertseo to vote. Secondly, I am not not a sockpuppet of any account and never indulged in any sort of vandalism. The admins can verify it by going through my edit history. Rather, I have always tried to contribute to Wikipedia in the best possible manner. When I was asked to present my case and others asked me about being a sockpuppet of the above-mentioned account, I declined, because I am not. However, later on, when I went through the guidelines and discussions, I found that because of common edit interests and may be similar IP class, I have been accused of being so. Since I was not aware of these things (sockpuppet), I was not able to present my case properly. Expertseo is a different individual and taught me how to edit on Wikipedia. He is no longer active. However, during the article deletion voting process, I asked for his support (I was not aware that it was against the guidelines). I now understand where I went wrong and assure the community that I will not do so in the future. Kindly unblock me so that I can continue with my edits. I have put lots of efforts and time (one of the pages that I created was the 19th most viewed page globally) and would definitely be a setback for me not being able to contribute further. At one place I read that it is not a punitive action but a preventive one. Since my edit history is not dubious and I believe my contributions have been in the positive direction, I hope that the admins will unblock me as I have learnt the lesson, although the hard way. Katyaan (talk) 09:13, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Checkuser  Confirmed sock puppet. Please explain why you, Expertseo, and several other users were all repeatedly using the same computer. Reaper Eternal (talk) 01:15, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Reaper Eternal As I said, I only know Expertseo and not others. And we are not using the same computer. Maybe it is due to the shared IP address. Katyaan (talk) 06:43, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Checkuser indicates that there is a technical match between you and Expertseo. This block can only be reviewed by another CU. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 18:03, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Supporting Indian Wikipedia Program resource distribution

[edit]

In 2017 - 2018, the Wikimedia Foundation and Google working in close coordination with the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS), Wikimedia India chapter (WMIN) and user groups will pilot a program encouraging Wikipedia communities to create locally relevant and high-quality content in Indian languages. This program (Code name: Project Tiger) will:

(a) Support active and experienced Wikipedia editors through the donation of laptops and stipends for internet access and
(b) Sponsor a language-based contest that aims to address existing Wikipedia content gaps.

The objective of the program is to provide laptops and internet stipends for existing editors who need support to contribute more actively. 50 basic model Acer Chromebooks and Internet stipends for 100 contributors are available for distribution. Provided resources are the sole property of the beneficiaries and should be used for the betterment of the movement.

If you're an active Wikimedian, and interested to receive support from this project, please apply. It will take around 10 minutes of your time, and will ask descriptive questions about your contribution to Indic Wikimedia projects.
