I see you are continuing to insert copyrighted text into articles, adding material you know is disputed without getting any kind of ], and irrelevant soapboxing.

{{ping|NeilN}} Neil, I do not understand this. Since our last interaction, I do not understand where I have "continued to insert copyrighted text", or "added disputed material". I have rather been engaging in talk page discussions everywhere, rather than warring on the article. The soapboxing you refer to is an honest attempt (on the talk page, I did not even touch the article) to understand why the lead of the article has been written the way it is. It is leading to some healthy debate I would say. |

I would respond in detail on the other page to all the allegations. If you would like to provide more details in the meantime, please do so. ] (]) 17:26, 16 September 2015 (UTC) |

: You call this clear ? No, this is not clear. Firstly, you keep going back to my behavior from the very first few days I joined here. This is what Misplaced Pages suggests, it seems, especially for admins like you, if only you read it: |
|
|
|
|
|
: ''"Administrators should take special care when dealing with new users. Beginning editors are often unfamiliar with Misplaced Pages policy and convention, and so their behavior may initially appear to be disruptive. Responding to these new users with excessive force can discourage them from editing in the future. See Misplaced Pages:Do not bite the newcomers."'' |

:Secondly, you continue to evade the fact that you made baseless and misleading allegations, as has been clearly demonstrated on your talk page discussion. I have asked you four times now to explain how and why you cited the Guru Gobind Singh talk page as evidence of my disruptive editing. It is insane that, in your ulterior motive of getting me banned, you can go to any length and just randomly make stuff up.

== Prophet , revelations == |
|
|
|
|
|
{{ping|Ms Sarah Welch}} I see that you are on a massive spree to undo and revert many of the changes I made. You are especially focusing on removal of Prophet and revelation words. Before doing so, it would have been appreciated if you could kindly do a simple google scholar search on related terms. Here, for example is one search for "Prophet Nanak: |
|
|
|
|
|
https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=prophet+nanak&btnG=&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5 |
|
|
|
|
|
As you can see, there are numerous results for this very simple search. Also, some of the references already included in most of the articles already allude to the word Prophet, which is why I did not explicitly cite newer references. See for example this source, which is almost included in all the articles that you are undoing: |
|
|
|
|
|
http://sgpc.net/ten-guru-sahibs/ |
|
|
|
|
|
Sikh Guru="the descent of divine guidance to mankind" = Prophet. Many of the other pages here explicitly use the word Prophets as well. |
|
|
|
|
|
I am pointing out this source since it is already in most of the articles. As I said, a simple Google scholar search reveals tens of other references, if you are interested. |
|
|
|
|
|
So, again, kindly refrain from your mass editing everywhere. |
|
|
|
|
|
And also, I note that in your edit summaries, you are consistently pointing out "now blocked JS82". What has this got to do with the edit summary. Kindly keep the debate civil and non-personal. |

{{ping|Ms Sarah Welch}} That is not an issue. I can find tens of several scholarly publications or books citing these facts. I already did show you some directly from Google Scholar references above, that use the word Prophet for Guru Nanak. I believe if you wanted, you could use any of those, rather than continuing further with your massive editing spree. |
|
|
|
|
|
Also, I would expect some sort of decency and careful use of language from you, as these are sensitive issues. I notice on one of your comments, you mentioned " The "Prophet" Thing " , not a very civilized terminology. |
|
|
|
|
|
I also see that you have been removing all my edits blindly now, most of which were based from SGPC. I don't know if it counts as a "reliable" source to you or not, but it does represent the unanimous voice and views of 25 million Sikh people.

Please do note that it is also the responsibility of each and every editor to present comprehensive information, rather than only reporting what they know about the subject. In other words, the onus is on all of us to provide an accurate description, not just on ''me''. I believe a Wiki editor must have a ''researcher's'' inquisitive attitude, to actually go and figure out, rather than "When you find it, I will consider": not an inquisitive mind's approach, I must say. Also, we are trying to build consensus here, rather than me pleading and you considering the case. So, again, please be courteous. |

::: And I do reiterate that the SGPC website is not just any other blog. It is information coming from the central Sikh religious body. While it may be a primary source (if I understand the terminology correctly), classifying it as just another blog and website, and removing all the sourced content, is likely not the correct approach. ] (]) 22:17, 18 September 2015 (UTC) |

@Js82: Take your time. Multiple admins and several wiki editors have linked you to ] page. In case you missed the first few sentences in WP:BURDEN section of that page, it reads, "'''All content must be verifiable. The burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material, and is satisfied by providing a citation to a reliable source that directly supports the contribution.'''" To respect this policy, you must provide detailed refs. |

In scholarly religious studies, the terms "]" and "revelations" have specific meanings. For exceptional claims such as these in Sikhism, you must provide exceptional citations, that is peer reviewed WP:RS sources. Your citation must "directly support" that exceptional claim, that conclusion. SGPC-style websites with unknown, unclear or questionable editorial oversight are unacceptable for wikipedia. There are quality publications on Sikhism, several published by Oxford University Press, Princeton University Press and others, as well as peer reviewed journals on Sikh-related studies. I encourage you to present citations and summaries from such sources. Frankly, your past edits have been disruptive, you have repeatedly taken a battleground approach to attempts by other wiki editors to question your edits or to collaborating with you. ] (]) 01:34, 19 September 2015 (UTC) |

(ps)... As you dig for reliable sources, note that words may have multiple meanings. The relevant meaning depends on the context. For various meanings of prophet see . You must check if your source means "one who utters divinely inspired revelations, believed to have come from God", or "one gifted with more than ordinary spiritual and moral insight", or "an effective or leading spokesman for a cause, doctrine, or group", or etc. ] (]) 18:11, 19 September 2015 (UTC) |

(ps2)... See page 104 of HS Singha (2009), The Encyclopedia of Sikhism, Hemkunt Press, ISBN 978-8170103011. The discussion explains the theory of incarnation in Hinduism and Buddhism, then the concept of Prophet in Islam. The discussion then states, "'''Sikhism does not subscribe to the theory of incarnation or the concept of prophethood. But it has a pivotal concept of Guru. He is not an incarnation of God, not even a prophet. He is an illumined soul.'''" So, now a tertiary source on Sikhism is directly denying your prophet-related OR. The burden on you now is to provide stronger and multiple reliable scholarly sources for "Prophet, Revelation and other claims in Sikhism". ] (]) 19:29, 19 September 2015 (UTC) |

@Js82: While reviewing your edits in several articles, I see a pattern of disruption and unsourced or non-RS content addition. I have so far reviewed the following articles: ], ], ], ] and ]. You have edit warred and not addressed the reliable sourcing issue. Per ], you must get consensus before adding the content back in. Please respect this community agreed guideline. |
|
|
|
|
|
You are also repetitively engaging in personal attacks, such as above, and . On that talk page you wrote, against another wikipedia contributor, "I find your claims ridiculous and hilarious. Are you a scholar on Guru Granth Sahib and the Sikh Gurus ? You are so immature and childish, I even feel sympathy for your many times. Please go and read the Guru Granth Sahib first, and then come back and discuss with me." This is not appropriate. Please don't repeat. ] (]) 19:55, 18 September 2015 (UTC) |

::: The language I used there is regrettable. I got carried away. Although please note that the way one addresses another editor also sometimes depends on the personal relationship people share. With the editor in question, I did somehow feel comfortable using that language, as I did not believe he would feel offended. He may have actually felt offended (I am not sure), but he did not follow up and call it a personal attack. This still does not justify my words, and as I said, they are regretted, and I do apologize to the editor if it hurt them. ] (]) 20:32, 18 September 2015 (UTC) |

@Js82: I have reverted your edits in ] article too, and notice that there you have had the same pattern of problems on its talk page, this time with another editor @Apuldram. Please note that I have carefully reviewed each of your edits in that article, starting with the edit time stamped ''' 09:58, 22 August 2015 Js82 (talk | contribs)''', and then restored the page to the version before your edits. ] (]) 17:58, 19 September 2015 (UTC) |

@Js82: I have reverted your edits to ] as well. Same reasons. I have kept one change you made, but added a source. ] (]) 19:17, 19 September 2015 (UTC) |

: Please stop bombarding my page with your persistent messages like this. You are also now misleading people by just selectively pulling out content. I had replied to Apuldram's above message as follows, to which he did not further respond. And I am also waiting to have my editorial privileges back, subsequent to which I can respond on the article talk pages to each and every point you are making. |

: "Next, The SGPC article I refer to is currently reference number 2. Most of what I added has been alluded to in various parts of the article. I can add citations to each and every sentence I added, but I believe that makes for poor reading. ("Citations are also often discouraged in the lead section of an article"). If you have any concerns, let me know." |

|
|
: Picking out only selective talk page material is completely dishonest. |

: All I asked you in one of the above messages is to stop your massive editing and undo spree, but unfortunately you are not heeding the request. It is up to you. Most of my edits were based from SGPC, which you keep ignoring as a non-reliable source, without actually realizing that the importance of SGPC. "It is directly elected by an electorate of the Sikh Nation, male and female above 18 years of age who are registered as voters under the provisions of Sikh Gurdwara Act 1925." So SGPC is akin to the Sikh parliament, and completely dismissing it off all the while as just another website is completely unreasonable. You are not co-operating at all. ] (]) 19:24, 19 September 2015 (UTC) |

:ps I notice that you have taken out Apuldram's message you were quoting, to which I had responded. Probably you actually now read the talk page discussion completely. As before, I can only request you to stop this seemingly blind mission to undo whatever I did. Please be respectful of other people and their contributions. ] (]) 19:33, 19 September 2015 (UTC) |
