[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 Maharshi Mehi Paramhans has been reverted.
Your edit here to Maharshi Mehi Paramhans 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 (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sant_santati/message/331) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
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. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 10:36, 3 November 2011 (UTC)

AfD discussions
[edit]Greetings, Praveshksingh, and welcome to Wikipedia's deletion process! Thank you for your contributions. As a newcomer, it may be helpful for you to read Wikipedia's deletion policy, and the pages describing the articles for deletion process, proposed deletion, and speedy deletion. Remember that deletion debates are not votes, and reasons matter, especially reasons relating to the central content policies of verifiability, neutral point of view, no original research, and what Wikipedia is not, and to the consensual community guidelines for biographies, corporations, music, and fiction. Also remember that deletion is not always the answer to a bad article. Feel free to drop me a line at my talk page if you have any questions. Again, welcome!

You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
I am sorry, but now that I look at your new draft, I have to delete it again, because it is still largely copied from http://www.speakingtree.in/spiritual-blogs/seekers/science-of-spirituality/maharshi-santsevi-ji-paramhans-the-light-that-shone-the-way-180471?track=cntshem&sort=like. Wikipedia cannot accept material which is a copyright violation, for legal reasons we must delete it. If you own the copyright to this material and want to copy it, or quote sections from it, you must make a copyright release, as described at Wikipedia:Donating copyright materials.
But that will not be enough because, although you have removed a few passages, what is left is still far too promotional in tone for an encyclopedia article. What you wrote for speakingtree.in was what I would describe as a "hagiography", full of admiration and expressing your opinion about what a wonderful person the subject was: "His modest disposition, magnetic persona, sweet charming voice, flawless pronunciation, captivatingly melodious rendition of devotional mystic hymns, captivating scholarly discourses..." etc. That is fine for a blog like that, but not for an encyclopedia, where a fundamental policy is WP:Neutral point of view.
You need to start with a clean sheet and write a plain description of the facts of Santsevi Paramhans' life, without any opinions. The reader of an encyclopedia article should not be able to tell what the author's personal opinion of his subject is. In this kind of writing, it is very good advice to take out all the adjectives. I suggest you ask for advice at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject India - ask them to point out some examples of acceptable articles about spiritual leaders like this, preferably articles that are at WP:Good article status, which you could use as a model.
One last point - when you ask someone to comment on an article or a draft, you do not need to copy the whole thing. Just give a link to it. If you put double square brackets round the name of a page, that will make a "Wikilink" to it - typing [[Wikipedia:Your first article]] gives Wikipedia:Your first article - which contains some good advice. JohnCD (talk) 23:20, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
- Dear JohnCD,
- Warm Regards!
- Please accept my grateful thanks for taking pains to reply at length.
- I understand that you are fully within your rights to delete the article again. However, I very humbly submit that the article on speakingtree.in site that you have referred is my own article. So, it should not be a case of copyright violation for what is there on speakingtree is my own article. I have removed the sentences that sounded like personal opinion and what is left looks fairly like an historic account. I have given dates also wherever required and have attached references as well.
- So, it is my humble request that please don't delete the article again...yes, if you still feel that some sentences need to be modified, kindle suggest so and i will comply, but please don't delete the article...even if i write the article once again, it would only change the words or sentences and not the basic information. Maharshi Santsevi Paramhans lived in recent times and, therefore, there is nothing mythical about his life...So, please reconsider your decision...i m ready to incorporate any changes that you would suggest.
- Hoping and praying for due consideration,
- Kind regards!

- I don't think you have read what I wrote above. Let me repeat:
- Copyright: it does not matter how many times you say you wrote the original. All we know is that someone using the same username says so. That does not provide the legal certainty Wikipedia needs to be sure we are not violating the original author's copyright. The only way this material can be accepted is if the copyright owner follows the steps explained in Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- Promotion: let me repeat just part of one sentence of your text:
"His modest disposition, magnetic persona, sweet charming voice, flawless pronunciation, captivatingly melodious rendition of devotional mystic hymns, captivating scholarly discourses... "
- That is not a historic, factual account, it is an expression of admiration and love: eight out of twenty words are glowing adjectives of praise - fine for your blog, absolutely not for an encyclopedia. If you cannot see that, I am afraid you are too close to your subject, too involved with it, to be able to write about him in the neutral tone that Wikipedia requires as a fundamental policy.

Hello, I have moved your article to draft space at Draft:Maharshi Santsevi Paramhans. The most important concern is that it needs to cite sources where you found information about Maharshi Santsevi Paramhans. Please read and understand referencing for beginners. It also needs a through copyedit. I see above that you have been trying for some time to get an article about this person included on Wikipedia. Perhaps it would be a good idea for you to spend some time in other topic areas so you get a feel for how sources are used and what sort of writing style Wikipedia is looking for. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 15:58, 26 December 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Hi! I saw your letter to Yunshui was posted to mainspace and nominated for deletion. You should write to his talk page here, instead of posting an article in the main encyclopedia. You should copy the letter you wrote while you still can, before it gets deleted. Mcampany (talk) 05:47, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
