ARBIPA sanctions alert
[edit]
Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.Kautilya3 (talk) 10:31, 31 December 2016 (UTC)

[edit]
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Siachen Glacier. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Adamgerber80 (talk) 16:34, 23 January 2018 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
I noticed your recent edit to Bahawalpur does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → 
Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary.

Wikipedia and copyright
[edit]
Hello Innocent Paki, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to KFC have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.
- You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an 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 the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
- Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
- If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse 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 must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also 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. Money emoji💵Talk💸Help out at CCI! 13:16, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
Important Notice
[edit]This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Faisalabad edits
[edit]Your recent edits were reverted per the edit summaries and because the last edit you made to the article introduced errors. The article passed a GA review some time ago, and we certainly welcome dead link repairs, better/updated sources to existing cited material, and the addition of new information cited to reliable sources. It is also much appreciated when, prior to editing, the editor proposing such changes takes the time to discuss it first on the article's talk page. Thank you and happy editing.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
[edit]
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Pakistan into Sargodha. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 13:50, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
Copyright issues
[edit]Hi, Innocent Paki. It is important that the images we use in WP are high quality images and that the person who uploads the images is the owner of the copyright. Please familiarize yourself with one of our very important policies, WP:COPYVIO, particularly as it relates to text as well as to uploading images. See MOS:IMAGES, WP:IUP, WP:GID, Wikipedia:Copyright situations by country, and Commons:Licensing. Repeated violations are taken very seriously by our administrators. Atsme Talk 📧 14:42, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi Atsme, Thanks for helping me with such a significant topic, I assure you that I'll be very careful in future in this regard. I have been gone through these articles and have learnt alot. Thanks once again Innocent Paki (talk) 18:18, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
Collaboration
[edit]The fastest and most pleasant way to learn how to properly apply WP:MOS, and expand or create a WP article is to approach it collegially. When editors work collaboratively there is no limit to what they can accomplish. When I first began editing WP, I made all kinds of newbie mistakes. The wisest words of advice I can share with you now is to slow down, stop reverting and begin a dialogue on the talk page of the article. It's okay to be bold and simply fix typos, misspellings, unsourced or poorly sourced material, replace poor quality images with better quality, and conduct normal copy editing, none of which requires discussion first. The edit summaries are important for you to read, and for you to write when summarizing your own edits. I also recommend that you find some articles that have been promoted to WP:GA and study them - pattern after them. Look at the GAs for Asia. If you're the kind of editor who aspires to perfection, then look at WP:FA and the various articles that have been promoted to Featured Article status. Once you get the hang of editing, there are a lot of articles you can work on that need copy editing, tightening and various other types of editing for improvement. Go slow - absorb as much as you can of WP:PAG - but whatever you do, don't take anything personally, especially when another editor reverts your work. Remember, we are all in this together which is why it is important to work collaboratively, collegially and patiently. You will be surprised at how much fun it can be, and how uplifting it can be when an article you worked on is promoted to GA. Happy editing!! Atsme Talk 📧 20:45, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
Sargodha
[edit]Bhai its already upgraded to Metropolitan Corporation and you can see it everywhere in Sargodha under Covid-19 awareness banners. Moreover it's also on the official page of Commissioner and Deputy Commissioner Sargodha. Moreover I don't edit immediately, I researched for many days and then I edited. I know about my city that's why I added contents in demographics, administrator and recreation section. I also added the method of irrigation and rural and urban population according to the official statistics of government. I checked all the things and then I edited the page for many hours and you deleted it in only seconds. Wasi Haider (talk) 18:50, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi Wasi Haider, brother although you researched alot but didn't provide any reliable source for your edits, your sourced material will not be removed. You also have removed certain info from infobox that includes metro rank of the city and number of union councils. Your concept of urban and rural population works for metro population but you directed it only with the city proper population, the urban population of metropolitan area is always more than the total population of the city proper. And if Sargodha has been upgraded to metropolitan corporation than please give an official source with your edit. Anyhow, I appreciate your efforts on Wikipedia. Keep it up!:) Innocent Paki (talk)
Just checking in
[edit]Hi, Innocent Paki - I looked at the improvements you made to Vehari - looks good. Make sure the material you add is cited to quality sources per WP:RS. It makes me happy to see you maintain consistency in your editing and MOS for the pages. 
Keep up the good work!! Atsme Talk 📧 00:27, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
Hi Atsme! Thank you so much for the appreciation. It really means alot to me. Yes, I have always tried my best to add the reliable and official sources but I will also go through WP:RS as suggested by you. Once again thanks for the support. Innocent Paki (talk) 02:57, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi Bookku! There is a section named culture in article Women in Pakistan. Just take a look on the section first and if you like it, you can copy all the entire section from it to the Draft:Aurat as I've seen an empty section there named The popular culture. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution.

Image source problem with File:Karachi Montage 05.png
[edit]
Thank you for uploading File:Karachi Montage 05.png.
This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright.
If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F4 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 06:09, 25 April 2022 (UTC). If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.
