March 2023[edit]

Hello, I'm Sid95Q. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Sikhism in Iran have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. Sid95Q (talk) 00:01, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be 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 noticeboards.
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. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. - LouisAragon (talk) 16:56, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Sikhs, you may be blocked from editing. Materialscientist (talk) 21:09, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Sikhism. -- dsprc ^[talk] 08:25, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by inserting unpublished information or your personal analysis into an article, as you did at Religion in Iran. - LouisAragon (talk) 18:22, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked for sockpuppetry[edit]

Wikipedia's technical logs indicate that this user account has been or may be used abusively per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Divinemomentever. It has been blocked indefinitely from editing to prevent abuse.

If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should review the guide to appealing blocks, and then appeal your block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}}. Note that anything you post in your unblock request will be public, so you may alternatively use the Unblock Ticket Request System to submit an appeal if it contains information that must be private.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

Divinemomentever (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Your reason here I had asked to change my previous username Rayiran to be changed (to divinemomentever) and then I created a new one while waiting to have the username changed. I absolutely was not aware that I should not have created multiple accounts and I am deeply sorry. I had contributed positively to "religion in Iraq". Furthermore, I did not know about the warnings I had received on my page and I know that whenever I should check my page for any message or comment and act upon to resolve it. I have been only active for less than 2 weeks and I got blocked. I know the reason now, so I hope I get a new chance. Thanks Divinemomentever (talk) 16:28, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

I believe that you merit another chance. Good luck. Courtesy ping to RoySmith. 331dot (talk) 18:31, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Note to any admin reviewing this unblock request, please see my comment at Special:Diff/1147604516. While I marked this as a checkuser block, I authorize any admin to unblock if you are convinced this user can be a productive member of the community. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:38, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot for your kindness. I was absolutely unaware about the messages and warnings and then unfortunately I asked to change the username for security reasons and without waiting unfortunately made another one. I know the rules now and even before getting blocked I had 2 positive changes which are still valid. I hope I get a chance again. Divinemomentever (talk) 14:42, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Do you understand what the problems were with your edits? 331dot (talk) 08:58, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Yes, I do. Unfortunately, I wasn’t aware of the process nor the messages I was getting. I will pay attention to both the process and messages. Though I think it’s probably too late as my status is blocked. I contributed positively to Sikhism and religion in Iraq and still my edited text is there. For example I added Sikhism as one of religions with some relation with Iraq because of Guru Nanak ji shrine there. However, I was reckless on religion in Iran where I wanted to edit Sikhism in Iran and didn’t pay attention to my warning messages. It was my first time here so really no real understanding. But anyway, I think I will remain for the rest of time. So hopefully other users will be given more time then me. For me, it feels like, I got a court eviction notice! Maybe you can help as my kind friend. But overall my voice is absent now. Divinemomentever (talk) 18:28, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot! Very kind of you. I hope I can become a committed and reliable member of the Wikipedia family. Divinemomentever (talk) 18:18, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

July 2023[edit]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Indian diaspora, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 16:36, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thanks for your kind note. I will follow the rules and my apologies for putting info without citation. T Divinemomentever (talk) 16:38, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

October 2023[edit]

Hi Divinemomentever! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Punjab that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. RegentsPark (comment) 14:46, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hey! Thanks a lot for your kind message. Yes, sorry, I am still new to editing and I try to follow your advice in future. Thanks a lot for your constructive point. Divinemomentever (talk) 15:30, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reliable sources[edit]

Hi Divinemomentever, I noticed that you've been adding a lot of claims sourced to sikhiwiki.org. As explained at WP:UGC, most wikis are not reliable sources because they're entirely user generated. I checked the history of this article, for example, and it was written by some random person with the username "Zahratallah". A few wikis are considered reliable sources, but they're generally closed wikis (meaning that not everyone can edit them) and their authors/editors are reputable experts. This does not appear to be the case with sikhiwiki.org. Woodroar (talk) 16:33, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Thanks for your kind message. I also looked but it is one of the Sikh sects and attested in the Wikipedia as well. I will explore it more though since you kindly pointed out this. Divinemomentever (talk) 16:38, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again. I saw that you switched the source at Baháʼí Faith to slife.org. As it says at the bottom of the page, "Adapted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". That page is just an old version of our article Sects of Sikhism. As an open wiki, Wikipedia isn't a reliable source, either, nor are any sources that simply republish its contents.

I suggest reading through Wikipedia:Reliable sources in full. It goes into what is and isn't considered a reliable source on Wikipedia, and why only sourcing reputable sources is important. Woodroar (talk) 17:00, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot. I didn’t pay attention. Thanks for your kind suggestion. 😊 Divinemomentever (talk) 17:29, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Some of the content you added was copied from another website, and thus was a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policy. Please don't add copyright material to Wikipedia. SikhWiki is not compatibly licensed. — Diannaa (talk) 16:35, 16 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your commment! 💐🌹🙏 Divinemomentever (talk) 16:49, 16 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

January 2024[edit]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Sikhism in Canada. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be 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 noticeboards.
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. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. No, an off the cuff comment by one person who happens to be a politician does not warrant mention, particularly in the lead, and that is certainly not a WP:MINOR edit Meters (talk) 20:15, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And it certainly isn't the Government of Canada behind that suggestion. Meters (talk) 20:17, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, yeah, an important Canadian official suggested so. Thanks Divinemomentever (talk) 21:12, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot for your guidance. Divinemomentever (talk) 21:06, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction to contentious topics[edit]

You have recently edited a page related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
