[edit] Hi,

Hi.

I presume you are the editor who has been working on Khalistan using 66.30.106.157. I'd just like to welcome you to Wikipedia and hope to work with you on some of the articles on Punjabi (both Gurmukhi and Shahmukhi) and Sikhism - all of which need a lot of work! Sukh | ਸੁਖ | Talk 14:17, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome! Yes, I have been editing Khalistan. I look forward to working with you on the Gurmukhi and Shahmukhi stuff. Zafarnamah 22:32, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Close to violating 3RR on Khalistan

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert a single page more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. Kevin_b_er 03:43, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

you have been blocked for making four reverts on Khalistan for 24hrs. When you return, please discuss the changes on the talk page.Blnguyen | rant-line 04:49, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Khalistan

Look friend. Getting into another revert war will do nobody any good and will only get the article locked and at least one of us blocked. I feel that the article in present form reflects all the perspectives of the issue, so why not let the matter rest. Unless, of course, you have something factual to add that is not mired in this crazy rubbish from delusional diaspora Sikhs who have no conception of the street realities in India today (or back then, for that matter)? The truth is eternal, indeed!Netaji 04:14, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Personal Attacks

You have been making personal attacks in your edit summaries. Please stop. I will complain if you persist after this warning.

Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on the contributor; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you.

[edit] Your page move

Please do not unilaterally move a page especially when you know it will be a controversial move. If you wish to move it, even if you think "Consensus is not required when something is factually incorrect", please discuss it before hand. I will be moving 1984 Anti-Sikh Pogroms back to 1984 Anti-Sikh riots. You do yourself no favours by making such controversial moves and you give more ammunition to people who do not take your point of view on certain topics. Sukh | ਸੁਖ | Talk 23:30, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Sukh, I am not concerned what others may think. I, however, am concerned when intelligent people like you do not acknowledge the difference between a "riot" and a "pogrom". I have provided the dictionary definitons of both on the talk page of Anti-Sikh Pogroms. If you can prove me wrong, I would gladly change my position. Unlike you, I am able to see the tactics of Hindutva ideologes who are simultaenously editing RSS and Khalistan pages. I don't have the time for Wikipedia but I am doing the best I can to do my put across the unpopular perspective. Zafarnamah 03:16, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
I'm neither for or against the move (actually, I probably lean for the change in terminology). However, the way you went about it wasn't approprite in my opinion. If you wish to move the page, just enter a heading on the talk page saying you wish to move it, allowing people to raise objections. If nobody does, then move it.
It's fine to move pages that will not be controversial straight away. However, you know this caused a bit of controversy in the past, so this would be the best course of action. Sukh | ਸੁਖ | Talk 09:03, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

The page is now protected to prevent moving without consensus. Now you have no choice but to go about it the right way. Allow the discussion to continue on the talk page. List it on proposed moves. Then if a consensus develops, and only then, will the page be moved. - Taxman Talk 18:43, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Zafarnamah, if you'd petitioned a vote to move the page I would have supported you. However, your arrogant stance has not helped the situation and now you'll face an up hill battle to get the page removed. Please stop with your persistent unilateral changes on Wikipedia, that you know are controversial and you know need extensive discussion. Sukh | ਸੁਖ | Talk 22:55, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Actually we Hindutva people don't mind you calling it a pogrom. Its not like the RSS was involved in any of that, and the people that massacred Sikhs were misguided by the pseudo-secular Congress gov't. Just don't call it a pogrom without consensus and don't say it was the Hindus, or the RSS's fault. It was a congress party political ploy/attack/revenge killing.Bakaman Bakatalk 19:21, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
