I Don't Understand.

Dear Waggie, I’m very new to Wikipedia, so please bear with me. I just don’t understand the problem, the sources I used are virtually the only available sources, other than the games. The sources are quite accurate, as well. They simply state what the ingame lore says. Or maybe I’m completely missing the mark, and I’m doing something else completely wrong.

Hello Beebceeper, thanks for your message. I'm sorry your first edits to Wikipedia aren't going well. You're removing a legitimate redirect and creating an article based on sources that aren't reliable per our guidelines. Wikipedia needs reliable sources to verify content in an article. Websites that have user-contributed content (such as Wikipedia and other wikis) are explicitly not reliable sources. I hope this helps clarify. If not, please reply here and I will try to clarify further. I've also placed a welcome message on your talk page with a series of links to our guidelines and policies to hopefully help improve your future experience here, to be honest I should have posted that earlier, my apologies. Thanks for your efforts and again, I'm sorry it hasn't gone as well as you would have liked. Best wishes! Waggie (talk) 08:47, 19 August 2016 (UTC)

Hi Waggie,

I am new here. New as a contributor to be precise. I edited a page on Orya Maqbool Jan. An edit that you deleted citing " non-neutrality". Not sure if this should be a new conversation or there is some way to reply to the message you sent me on this subject.

If you go through his lectures, you would appreciate that it would be difficult to be neutral on his views. I did state facts (as in his actual statements) and did not use any derogatory language. If just quoting the gentleman and pointing out inconsistencies constitutes "non-neutrality" then I submit I am guilty as charged. But thats all that I did. And the guy is dangerously unhinged. I do hope you will reconsider.

Cheers, Shaswat — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.251.143.74 (talk) 09:37, 19 August 2016 (UTC)

Dissapointed that an edit of mine on Orya Maqbool Jan's page was removed citing "non-neutrality"

Account creator granted

After reviewing your request for the "accountcreator" permission, I have enabled the flag on your account. Keep in mind these things:

  • The account creator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
  • The account creator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the account creator right will result in its removal by an administrator.

If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the account creator right. Happy editing! — xaosflux Talk 18:31, 26 August 2016 (UTC)

@Xaosflux: Thanks, I will remember this. Best wishes! Waggie (talk) 18:48, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
