I then went on to explain that the exposition of the phrase Ik Onkar as the monotheistic unity of God within my section before he revereted them. But to claim that Onkar TRANSLATES to God is incorrect. Like Al Rahman translates to "The Merciful" and is a synonym for God within Islamic tradition, hence a distinction between literal translation and meaning. Mehmood is incorrectly saying that Onkar translates to God in Punjabi. It is a synonym for God, it does not literally translate to God. I do apologize for not immediately going to talk page, which I will do in the future from now on. Whenever I have a disagreement with someone else, I will immediately discus it with them on the talk page of the article, and not revert/add anything to the article. I apologize.

Latest revision as of 12:40, 2 December 2024
Notice that you are now subject to an arbitration enforcement topic ban
The following topic ban now applies to you:
You are topic banned from India, Pakistan and Afghanistan, broadly construed for six months and 500 edits. This topic ban explicitly includes India's foreign relations and Sikhism.
You have been sanctioned as a result of this AE report.
This topic ban is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at arbipa#Final decision and, if applicable, the contentious topics procedure. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. Please read WP:TBAN to understand what a topic ban is. If you do not comply with this topic ban, you may be blocked for an extended period, by way of enforcement of this sanction—and you may also be made subject to further sanctions.
You may appeal this sanction using the process described here. I recommend that you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template if you wish to submit an appeal to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard. You may also appeal directly to me (on my talk page), before or instead of appealing to the noticeboard. Even if you appeal this sanction, you remain bound by it until you are notified by an uninvolved administrator that the appeal has been successful. You are also free to contact me on my talk page if anything above is unclear to you. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 12:40, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
