"Pepperbeast"
If just adding some random source to any piece of information qualifies as "sourced information", then what is the meaning of sourced information.
I have gone through those attached references and NOWHERE does it attest this information. I'm very much aware of "Iravatham Mahadevan's" works and it's far from what has been claimed here as his findings. This is pure misinformation added by the user '''Tirukodimadachengunrur''', to impose their biased views on the Misplaced Pages readers. In fact even the writing style does not match with that of the referenced document. It's our responsibility to prevent such acts of vandalism and restore genuine information.
I kindly request you to review the sources before restoring it. TrUtHJan (talk) 07:41, 11 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

In contrast Iravatham Mahadevan talks about Old kannada language's influence on Old Tamil and not vise versa. Here the user
'''Tirukodimadachengunrur''' has explicitly tried to quote that Kannada follows the structure of Old Tamil which is false. Furthermore this user goes on to add that Kannada retains the words once used in Tamil which is again incorrect. It has been presented in a way that's completely opposite to what has been documented by renowned linguist "Iravatham Mahadevan". In point of fact even the other attached source "the history of kannada" has nothing that supports the claims of the user '''Tirukodimadachengunrur'''.
IRAVTAHAM MAHAVEDAN's views have been nicely put across under the "History" section of the same Misplaced Pages page where you can see how the renowned linguist explain why he thinks Tamil retains many Kannada words and not vice verse as claimed by a few editors here. ] (]) 14:43, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

Hello,


== Unnecessary reversion. ==
I had started to try and rework the Hinduism section on the page as it was bloated, didn't read well and had problems with the sources. However I have seen that these edits were reverse, I thought I would reach out to you here to discuss the section. I am not trying to restate any of the facts, just clean up a number of errors (especially in regards to the sources) and generally make the section higher quality and more legible. I would like to discuss the edits with you here before I make any more edits, to reassure that these edits are genuine and will produce a better article.

What do you see as the value of deep-linking into a list with limited information? PepperBeast (talk) 17:42, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
Since there doesn't exist any independent page/section on Purva Ashadha Nakshatra, other pages are forced to link to the information where it is present. Thus, an anchor is necessary at this point, if another page want to link to this particular nakshatra. Riteze (talk) 17:52, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

January 2025

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Bluecoats Drum and Bugle Corps. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Bgsu98 (Talk) 05:30, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

Convenient tag for a section name.

A simple convenient tag was added to a long section name which contained some special characters too. Your edit is not constructive in this sense. Riteze (talk) 13:17, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
