A belated welcome!

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Adamstraw99. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! Dougweller (talk) 14:22, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

November 2011

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to F.I.R. (TV series) has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you. Template:Z84 Mayur ^{(talk•Email)} 06:13, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

April 2012

Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Dougweller (talk) 14:23, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Native Americans in the United States

Your change here turned a working link Indigenous peoples by geographic regions into the red link Indigenous people by geographic regions. Please be more careful in the future. Thanks. Dougweller (talk) 14:24, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for April 13

Hi. When you recently edited Chapda, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Devas and Bagli (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Poonam Pandey, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

Adding reference on wiki articles

Adding a well formatted references for these edits[[1]] is very easy to do. While editing any article or a wikipage, on the top of the edit window you will see a toolbar which says "cite" click on it and then click on "templates", then choose the most appropriate template and fill as many details as you can, this will add a well formatted reference that would be helpful in case the link web URL becomes inactive (dead/link rot) after some time. thanks and regards ---- ÐℬigXЯaɣ 01:23, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for watching out for Nirmal Baba

Hey, thanks for keeping an eye on the Nirmal Baba article and improving it :) Noopur28 (talk) 13:51, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Avoid copy pasting news headlines

Hey, Please avoid copy pasting headlines or just statements from news articles as you did in Nirmal Baba. You must paraphrase and write in your own words. Also, please be mindful of not capitalizing words in the middle of statements. Thanks :) Noopur28 (talk) 09:49, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dinesh Hingoo

August 2012

Thank you for trying to keep Wikipedia free of vandalism. However, one or more edits you labeled as vandalism, such as the edit at Bundelkhand‎, are not considered vandalism under Wikipedia policy. Wikipedia has a stricter definition of the word "vandalism" than common usage, and mislabeling edits as vandalism can discourage newer editors. Please read Wikipedia:NOTVAND for more information on what is and is not considered vandalism. Thank you. Apparition¹¹ ^Complaints/Mistakes 10:55, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism Studies Update - August 2012

Hello, members of the Vandalism Studies Project! As some of us are quite new with the Vandalism Studies project, it would make sense for us to re-read some of the past studies, as well as studies outside the project. Please do so if you have a chance, just so we can get into the groove of things. We're planning on attempting to salvage the Obama study (or possibly simply convert it to a new Romney study), as well as hopefully begin our third study this November. If you have any ideas for Study 3, please suggest them! If you have any questions please post them on the project talk page. Thanks, and happy editing - we can't wait to begin working on the project! --Dan653 (talk) and Theopolisme _{:)[reply]
