regarding changed made to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm_oil
accordingly to Wikipedia:Verifiability, in this case; only specialized knowledge likely to be challenged needs citation, since its common knowledge; citation is not needed,
if someone needs further instruction the Wikipedia link to trichromatic vision which was already included will help them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.132.99.144 (talk) 01:40, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
All material in Wikipedia mainspace, including everything in articles, lists and captions, must be verifiable. All quotations, and any material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, must include an inline citation that directly supports the material.
Any material lacking a reliable source directly supporting it may be removed and should not be restored without an inline citation to a reliable source.
- Deliberately misinterpreting a Wikipedia policy to attempt to prove your point is incredibly disingenuous behaviour and entirely unproductive. The statements you keep adding to the page are NOT common knowledge regardless of what you deem it to be. You've received enough warnings, if you continue to edit war/add uncited information you will be blocked. Good day. Prolix 💬 07:54, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
The Amul trinity
Hello, It seems you reverted my edit based on an thehindubusinessline.com article, does Wikipedia consider thehindubusinessline.com not being a reliable source[1].? Rameshvar (talk) 17:46, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Rameshvar, it appears I used the wrong revert option. There's no issue with regards to sourcing. The content you added didn't seem to fit too well with that paragraph which speaks about the founding of the first district milk union and it didn't appear that HM Dalaya was a founder of sorts, but rather he was more of a technical contributor. I'm sure his contributions can be re-added in the lead with better phrasing. Prolix 💬 19:05, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- As the title of the article "The Amul trinity" it explains that: "Dalaya, who studied dairy engineering in Michigan State University with Kurien, is the one who provided Amul the technical backbone. When Kurien decided to make Anand his life’s calling, he turned to Dalaya. Dalaya and Kurien managed to locate the company and persuade its manager to loan them the machine, which they used to produce buffalo milk powder for the first time. Dalaya subsequently visited Denmark to study powder plant designs and operations. These efforts resulted in the Niro Atomiser, the world’s first sprayer-dryer designed for buffalo milk, installed at Kheda dairy in October 1955. The original credit goes to Dalaya — something that Kurien always acknowledged, and reiterated when the former passed away on September 12, 2004. While Patel dealt with the farmers, and Dalaya took charge of the technical and internal affairs of the dairy, “my role was only in marketing, external affairs and handling politicians, bureaucrats and other establishment people,” the ever-frank Kurien admitted at the time. In Anand, it was said that if Patel was the Father of Amul, Kurien was the Son, and Dalaya the Holy Ghost.
- So it really seems they all three manage to create the company with different roles. One provided the technical backbone, Kurien and Patel had administrative roles. I think this should be noticed clearly in this page Rameshvar (talk) 19:18, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- Rameshvar, it has been noted in the history section. All three have been mentioned with their roles explained. I suppose this could also be added to the lead, it just needs proper phrasing. Prolix 💬 17:55, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
- I agree, you're right. I go ahead (by the way, very nice signature) Rameshvar (talk) 18:01, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

With regards to the comments you left on my talk page
How was my editing disruptive? Since I just included an image (which I clicked) which I thought better showcased the Mumbai skyline since it's newer. It was just a one time edit to both the pages of Economy of India and Mumbai and was in noway even close to the hyperbole used, 'disruptive'. You could have simply said it's not better suited instead of terming it as 'disruptive' or asked me for consensus building. Frankly, I do not care if you block my account for something as trivial as this (my efforts of providing images that I possess to Wikipedia), I'd rather not be on such a site which speaks of 'consensus' but basically bulldozes people with harsh words who might otherwise have good intentions. It's not like I'm a troll spreading propaganda. I could better use my time elsewhere. Addie666 (talk) 01:52, 15 January 2021 (UTC)Addie666
- Addie666, I have no authority to block or suspend your account. Warning levels are automatically chosen based on the last warning on your page, since another user recently added a level 5 warning, that was what I went with as well. Disruptive because you've done this sort of image change without consensus thrice now. If you believe my warning does not accurately represent your actions then please do go ahead and remove it from your talk page, you have no obligation to keep it there.
