Welcome![edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

September 2020[edit]

Information icon Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Convention Between Great Britain and China Respecting Tibet. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges.

You may know your stuff, but to edit Wikipedia, you need to follow its policies. I suggest you follow WP:BRD and open a discussion on the talk page of the article and achieve WP:CONSENSUS. Kautilya3 (talk) 20:38, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm Kautilya3. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Talk:Convention Between Great Britain and China Respecting Tibet that didn't seem very civil, so it has been removed. Wikipedia is built on collaboration, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please read WP:BRD again and follow what it asks you to do. Kautilya3 (talk) 07:26, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

ARBIPA sanctions alert[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.

This alert means that you are editing in a contentious area, for which discretionary sanctions apply. You need to understand and strictly follow all the applicable policies of Wikipedia.

@Bishonen: can you veriy this? The page this editor is concerned deals with the treaty relations between Tibet and British India. So I believe it is covered under ARBIPA sanctions. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 11:29, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is, but I'm honestly not sure. The Hansard source suggests it does apply. @RegentsPark and Doug Weller: Bishonen | tålk 11:37, 14 September 2020 (UTC).[reply]
What is this? This sanction don't apply to me as I never once ever edited topics on India/pakistan/afghanistan. I understand that in those topics, a lot of edit warring exists between indian nationalists and pakistan nationalists on heated current events but I never got involved in those topics nor would I even be interested in that. I only edited China/Tibet in 1906 and the only thing I did was correct User:Kautilya3 that he was wrong to REMOVE info - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/978230312 and to misrepresent the sources as being unreliable and my BBC source PROVES that I am not the one who is wrong to reverse his harmful edits and tagging. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-pacific-17046222 49.179.144.133 (talk) 12:16, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
49.179.144.133, this is just a notification of sanctions, always good to know. @Kautilya3:, my guess is that it applies if we very broadly construe "broadly construed". If the editor is editing on other India, Pakistan, Afghanistan topics, then yes. Otherwise, within the spirit of ARBIPA, this is so far out on the margin that, imo, we should not use the sanctions here. --RegentsPark (comment) 12:54, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I agree entirely. IP, you don't have to worry about the alert at least in this case, I can't see sanctions being applied to this subject. Of course it applies if you edit more directly related areas. Doug Weller talk 13:52, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
