Hello, I'm Kautilya3. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Murty Classical Library of India without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I have restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Kautilya3 (talk) 19:01, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
- My apologies for this revert. I only intended to revert the last edit, but there were three edits in a row, which I didn't notice. In any case, the problem now is much wider than that revert. I think you need to start discussing on the talk pages what issues you are addressing instead of making more edits. Cheers, Kautilya3 (talk) 19:07, 7 March 2016 (UTC)

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges.
Please follow
- @Kautilya3 done.
- Yeah, I noticed. But your source wasn't an WP:RS. It is also odd that you should mention the UC, Irvine Chair, while ignoring the Columbia Chair. Presumably it is easier to establish connections with the latter (again using reliable sources). - Kautilya3 (talk) 12:26, 10 March 2016 (UTC)]
- Why is it not WP:RS? Swarajya is a well known reputed journal. BTW, what about Columbia Chair? Are you talking about Sringeri peetham Chair?HemaChandra88 (talk) 13:14, 10 March 2016 (UTC)]

Replaceable fair use File:Koenraad Elst.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Koenraad Elst.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 21:33, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
Disputed non-free use rationale for File:François Gautier.jpg
Thank you for uploading
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 21:34, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 18
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited François Gautier, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Caucasian. 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've recently uploaded non-free images of living people which have been tagged for deletion. You should be aware that the fact that you are unable to find a free image of the subject does not mean a non-free image is allowable. Per

This edit was badly informed, and misplaced. How come you po-up at this topic? Are you following my edits? Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 04:32, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
- Hemachandra88, tell Joshua Jonathan to stay off your talk page. If you tell someone to stay off your talk page, then it's a rule they cannot break.VictoriaGraysonTalk 07:00, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
- That's a really disappointing "advice," Vic. Not the kind of collaborative effort you'd expect from an experienced editor. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 08:39, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
Wikipedia and copyright
Hello HemaChandra88, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to
- You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
- Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
- Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
- If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
- Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Doug Weller talk 18:10, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

I have removed your "one source" tag. There are two well-respected academic sources at that article, so I have no idea why you would tag it. The tag itself suggests that you're supposed to explain at the talk page but you seem not to have done. A quick search of Google Books suggests that there are tens of potential sources, if not more, so surely it would be better to try incorporating some of those rather than drive-by tagging? - Sitush (talk) 09:33, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Edit warring on Angana Chatterji
Hello. Would you be able to intervene in an ongoing dispute concerning https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angana_P._Chatterji ? I messaged a user who had made a mechanical edit on the page, but the user said that she was unfamiliar with the process and could not intervene. The dispute is summarised on the talk page of the user I wrote to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Ira_Leviton#Angana_Chatterji Thanks Tatsuro22 (talk) 18:20, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
