| == A question about your edits == | |||
| Hello Timovinga, I noticed that you have been pretty active in your edits, including starting a ] within a day of creating your account. We don't usually see this kind of activity in users with only 200 edits. Is this your only Misplaced Pages account? Have you edited on Misplaced Pages without an account, or with a different account? Thanks, ] <sup>]</sup> 18:16, 18 January 2024 (UTC) | |||
| :This person has been repeatedly removing large amounts of text in topics related to LGBTQ, Hinduism and India. He needs to be checked IMO for bias. ] (]) 11:05, 19 January 2024 (UTC) | |||
| == Vandalism == | |||
| I ask you to refrain from removing large amounts of text in relation to India, LGBTQ and Hinduism. Your edits are unilateral and seem to be vandalism. If you have an alternative opinion to add then please feel free to build on the article. ] (]) 11:13, 19 January 2024 (UTC) | |||

| ::And I have already explained to you that the valid procedure is to mark a disputed section as needing a better source, and then remove if no source is provided. You are removing sentences which have five sources etc... and it can only be seen as vandalism. ] (]) 11:21, 19 January 2024 (UTC) | |||
| == Introduction to contentious topics == | |||
| {{ivmbox | image = Commons-emblem-notice.svg |imagesize=50px | bg = #E5F8FF | text = You have recently edited a page related to '''], ], and ]''', a topic designated as ''']'''. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and <em>does <strong>not</strong> imply that there are any issues with your editing</em>. | |||
| A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as ''contentious topics''. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Misplaced Pages’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Misplaced Pages administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project. | |||
| Within contentious topics, editors should edit <strong>carefully</strong> and <strong>constructively</strong>, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and: | |||
| *adhere to the purposes of Misplaced Pages; | |||
| *comply with all applicable policies and guidelines; | |||
| *follow editorial and behavioural best practice; | |||
| *comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and | |||
| *refrain from gaming the system. | |||
| <p>Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics ''procedures'' you may ask them at the ] or you may learn more about this contentious topic ]. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{tl|Ctopics/aware}} template. </p>}}<!-- Derived from Template:Contentious topics/alert/first --> — ] (] · ] · ] · ]) 11:44, 19 January 2024 (UTC) | |||

| {{unblock reviewed|decline=] doesn't excuse edit warring in content disputes, no. Think about it: every ] editor who is in an edit war thinks their version is improving Misplaced Pages. ]<sup><small>]</small></sup> 23:59, 19 January 2024 (UTC)|1=@] there must be some misunderstanding. Arind7 started edit war across many articles. He pushed his POV in many articles using some unreliable sources. I reverted those edits and warned him many times and asked him not to edit war see . But despite that he continued the edit war and finally, I filed the complaint against him. Arind7 broke the 3RR rule in Marriage in Hinduism. I also reverted him there only to stop the POV of him under ]. If this was the reason behind my block then I think I misunderstood the IAR. I know in WP you cannot achieve anything by doing edit war. Please kindly reconsider by block, Thanks. | |||

| {{unblock reviewed |1=Although, in my opinion, it was not a content dispute but rather an edit war and POV pushing by the user Arind7. Clearly, he was violating ] by using some user-generated Blogspot websites. I will make sure this kind of mistake will not happen further from my side. Maybe I misunderstood the IAR and my good-fait edits were not actually good faith for the Admins.
