Welcome to Wikipedia, CyberJagrithi! Thank you for your contributions. I am Girth Summit and I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{help me}}

- Discover what's going on in the Wikimedia community
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! GirthSummit (blether) 17:05, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
Grammatical changes
[edit]Hi - again, welcome to Wikipedia! I don't want to be discouraging, but I'm afraid that I just went through some of your recent contributions and undid them. If you are going to edit other people's work, please be careful to make sure that what you are doing is improving the prose. Quite a few of your recent edits seemed to be grammatical changes, but they ended up introducing grammatical errors into the sentences - please don't do that. I also note that you haven't been using edit summaries when you change things - it's really important to do that, so that other editors can easily see what you are doing by looking at the articles' histories. Please read through the links in the welcome template above to learn more about editing, and again, welcome. Cheers GirthSummit (blether) 17:08, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
- Hi again - you're still changing stuff that doesn't need changing. Rather than amending other people's sentences, why not try expanding an article with information from a reliable source? GirthSummit (blether) 17:38, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
- Hi once again - can I just point out WP:DATESNO to you? We don't use ordinals in dates (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th...), we just use the number (so, 17 July 2020 is correct; 17th July 2020 would be incorrect, in the eyes of our inhouse manual of style).

User:CyberJagrithi has been deleted
Hello, CyberJagrithi. Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia.
I'm sorry, but User:CyberJagrithi has been deleted as meeting WP:CSD#G11. "This applies to pages that are exclusively promotional and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to conform with Wikipedia:NOTFORPROMOTION." These must be rewritten from scratch from "reliable, third party sources unconnected to the subject." See WP:RS.
Wikipedia:Identifying blatant advertising#Typical signs of blatant advertising contains information about content to avoid. For more information on content that may be perceived as promotional, click User:Deepfriedokra/promo. These are just rough guides. Pages can avoid all those pitfalls and still be glaringly obvious ad copy. Sometimes pages meeting WP:CSD#G11 give the appearance of an editor violating Wikipedia:Conflict of interest or WP:PAID. Please read and heed them if they apply to you. Please read Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations.
There is a very common mistake of assuming that the prohibition against promotional editing applies only to promotion for commercial gain, but that is not so. Sometimes creators of promotional content are bewildered that it is considered such. If one has been trained to write or spent some time writing corporate documents or mission/vision statements or anything similar, they may simply be blind to the promotionality. It can be hard to unlearn.
Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources that are unconnected with the subject and providing verifiable information. That generally means someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written a great deal about the subject. Please see Wikipedia:Citing sources . Template:cite has templates you can use in citing your sources. Place the template {{references}} at the bottom of the page, and references cited in the text will appear there.
The new user tutorial can help you avoid future problems. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 18:55, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
