Introduction to contentious topics

[edit]

You have recently edited a page related to the region of South Asia (India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal), broadly construed, including but not limited to history, politics, ethnicity, and social groups, 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 an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.

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

Additionally, you must be logged in, have 500 edits, and have an account age of 30 days in order to make edits related to two subtopics: (1) Indian military history, or (2) social groups, explicitly including caste associations and political parties related to India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal.

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.

Hello, all i did was add images in infoboxes. Indian war pages lack multiple images. Look at American Civil War it contains various images in infobox, VickyKumar23 (talk) 16:02, 29 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]


Only WP:ECP users can edit Indian military history. You should avoid editing this area altogether until you have gained ECP status. THEZDRX (User) | (Contact) 07:01, 29 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

An article you recently created, List of Native American polities, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hello, it wasn't vandalism. I am the one who created the article in the first place. I was simplifying the list VickyKumar23 (talk) 10:47, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You see the data i removed, is actually already present in the parent article (Campaigns of Samudragupta) VickyKumar23 (talk) 10:48, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Theeverywhereperson you gave me warning for no reason, and now you have dissapeared VickyKumar23 (talk) 16:12, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
disappeared* and you were just completely removing a section. Theeverywhereperson (talk here) 10:55, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
That is considered WP:VANDALISM Theeverywhereperson (talk here) 10:55, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
the section was added by me in the first place. It was not relevant to the article as it is already present in Campaigns of Samudragupta. VickyKumar23 (talk) 10:58, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Ok fine. You may revert my edits. Do what you want with it ok. Theeverywhereperson (talk here) 11:15, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Chakravarti (Sanskrit term), you may be blocked from editing. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 11:19, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summary

[edit]

Hi Vicky! I noticed your edits to the article Frontier states of the Gupta Empire did not contain an edit summary.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I suggest adding this to every edit you make.

PS I noticed a user warned you for behavior, but did not respond to your replies, so I'll find an admin and see if they can clarify the situation to you. Cheers! Wikieditor662 (talk) 17:18, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Pan-Indian Empire requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion".

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Battle of the Indus (1221) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is:

  • a disambiguation page with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" which lists only one extant Wikipedia page (i.e., there is a primary topic);
  • a disambiguation page that lists zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
  • a redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" whose target is neither a disambiguation page nor page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 16:28, 7 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There were 2 battles of the Indus,hence a disambiguation page is required. ScrubbedSoap (talk) 17:00, 7 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
