Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to
List of attacks on civilians attributed to Sri Lankan government forces, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the
edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been
reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your
sandbox for that. Thank you.

Please stop your
disruptive editing. If you continue to
vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at
1958 anti-Tamil pogrom, you may be
blocked from editing.
Your edits have been automatically marked as
vandalism and have been automatically
reverted. The following is the log entry regarding this vandalism:

Please don't use the term "vandalism" as you did here just because you disagree with the edits. That's a misuse of the term and can be considered a personal attack if you continue. Vandalism has a very specific meaning on Wikipedia, WP:VANDAL has some information on that. In particular, good faith edits should NEVER be called vandalism. It's an editorial disagreement, and WP:BRD should be followed. Thank you. Ravensfire ( talk) 15:24, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I'm
Suneye1. I noticed that you recently removed content from
Tamil loanwords in other languages without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate
edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your

Thank you for
your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into
Dances of Sri Lanka. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere,
Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an
edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and
linking to the copied page, e.g.,
copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{
copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at
Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you.

You were warned in January about personal attacks. This is absolutely unacceptable. Sdrqaz ( talk) 14:58, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
This is your only warning; if you make
personal attacks on others again, as you did at
Special:Diff/1038414136, you may be
blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Particularly egregious personal attack at
Special:Diff/1038414136. Do not do this again. This is your only warning.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Could you explain why you moved a page to a clearly inappropriate name? If you want to move a page and you find you can't carry it out, either list it at the technical requests noticeboard or (if you know it will be controversial) use the requested moves process instead of cutting content out and pasting it. Thank you, Sdrqaz ( talk) 01:23, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. - SUN EYE 1 13:34, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
