Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for
your contributions. However, I noticed that your username (Bill clinton history) may not meet Wikipedia's
username policy because it is the name of a well-known American president. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a
change of username, or you may simply create a new account to use for editing. Thank you.

I like your new edits at the Ahir article.
- MangoWong ( talk) 17:12, 20 July 2011 (UTC)
I find that you are having some issues at the Ahir talk page. Here are some points that came to my mind. It is about the misuse of the word "Shu***" in that article. I think that word should NOT be anywhere in that article. When someone writes an article on " Earth", there is usually no need to say anything about " Flat earth theory", because the earth is not flat!!!! We all know that much. If someone wants to talk about the "Flat Earth theory" in the article about "Earth", they would have to establish that the Earth is flat or that there are a large number of contemporary scientists who think that the Earth is flat!!!! If they can’t do that, it can’t be mentioned in that article. Saying that a large number of people used to think in the past that the Earth is flat is not enough, and is of no use. As simple as that. WP:FRINGE (please click through the link and read it). Similarly, the Ahirs are not regarded as "Shu***" by anyone in the present world. If nobody regards Ahirs as "Shu***" in the present world, the word need not get any mention in the article on "Ahir". If anyone wants to mention this word in the article on "Ahir", you can challange them to prove that the Ahirs are regarded as "Shu***" in the present world. Moreover, you can also challenge them to prove that Ahirs "were" “Shu***”. They were not. They were people. Nobody in the present world says that the Ahirs of past "were" “Shu***”. What others of that time may have said does not matter. If the people of present think that people of past were mistaken, they "were" mistaken. And this is what matters. If they cannot prove that the Ahirs of past "were" “Shudra”, your argument should prevail. I think nobody can prove this. What they were regarded as by others does not matter. You can use this argument if you want. But there is no assurance that it will be accepted easily. If you want, you can use it, and if the argument be correct, you should be able to have your opinion prevail. I hope you do not mind me dropping in here from time to time. And if you argue this point, make absolutely sure that you do not say anything even remotely insulting or do not make any sort of threats. Even if others misbehave, keep your cool. People might try to trick you into misbehaving by themselves saying something offensive to you, so that they can get you blocked. It's a trap. And please don't violate the "3RR" under any circumstances. Folks may also try to trick you into doing that. 3RR means you cannot revert anything more than 3 times within a 24 hour period. If you can do this much, then we will see... You can also come to my talk page and drop comments whenever you like. It may be that your opponents can violate all the policies and guidelines of Wikipedia, and still go scot free. But you can't. But you need not do so!!!! You can still see your opinion prevail without breaking any policies!!! If you want to practice your editing skills or anything, you can also create a personal sandbox by clicking on this red link User:Bill clinton history/Sandbox. This sandbox will also have a talkpage and you can create that too. I can also create them for you if you want. With best regards....- MangoWong ( talk) 05:36, 21 July 2011 (UTC)
Hey Bill, you might find it a great timesaver to use http://reftag.appspot.com to format your footnotes from GoogleBooks. Whenever you find something on gBooks you like, just copy the URL from your browser bar and put it into the entry box at RefTag. The only catch is that if you're using Snippet View, or if you scroll down in Preview/Full to a page other than the one you landed on, RefTag might not fill in the page numbers right, so make sure you observe your page# so you can enter it manually and update the result as needed. Hope you find this a useful tool. MatthewVanitas ( talk) 18:21, 20 July 2011 (UTC)
Greetings Bill, I appreciate that you are interested in seriously improving caste articles and bringing them to WP standards, and that you have inadvertently found yourself in a very controversial topic that is frustrating to work on. I would caution you against the goading of TT2011 and particularly MangoWong (fresh off a block). MangoWong has shown a clear pattern of trying to get other editors to fight his fights for him; note on Talk:Yadav he makes allegations worthy of an WP:ANI report, but then refuses to make them himself, but encourages you to make one. You'll note MW does very, very little constructive work on articles himself, but hangs about Talk pages adding hostility, and goading others into fights. To make an analogy: he's that guy at the corner pub sidling up to his "friends" and saying "Oi Ted, did you hear what that bloke said about your mother? You're not gonna stand for that, are you???" He's a cheerleader for conflict, and I'm probably remiss in not having an ANI on him already.
I hope you will agree that Sitush and I, though not always agreeing with you, are being civil and taking your suggestions seriously, reading your refs and commenting, etc. Caste is a tricky topic, and learning WP procedure is difficult, but provided we can tune out those people who are here to "have fun" fighting instead of being helpful, I'm sure we can work with you to get good work done, and before long you'll be an experienced editor who knows how to navigate controversy. This is a bit of "baptism by fire" to start out in such a rough area, but both Sitush and I are happy to work with you as long as we're all civil and using proper sourcing and format. Thanks for your positive spirit, MatthewVanitas ( talk) 13:40, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Please read WP:CONSENSUS, because I don't see any evidence that consensus was reached on the varna issue on Talk:Yadav.

Sitush ( talk) 00:32, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
Bill clinton history, I have noticed that you want to discuss Ahirs and Abhira and other sources etc. at the DRN. I have some experience in these discussions and please trust me that these issues are not within the scope of the present DRN. It is only about the sentence in question + about the sources which support it. Other things are irrelevant. If other things are brought up there, entire discussion will lose focus and then someone will just close it saying that it has lost direction. There will be no outcome and this is what some guys want. Please trust me, and don't talk about other things. The only issues to be discussed there are whether the sentence is a synthesis or not+ whether it is misleading or not+ whether the four sources are proper or not. If the discussion goes off in some other direction, others will claim that the discussion has lost focus and ask that it be closed. Actually, they already seem to be doing so on the talk page of the DRN. Please don't talk about other things and talk about the sentence in question and its sources only. Whether it is synthesis/misleading etc. Otherwise the entire effort will become useless.- MangoWong ( talk) 17:54, 15 August 2011 (UTC) If the discussion gets closed because it has lost focus, they will claim that the sentence is not synthesis and is not misleading.- MangoWong ( talk) 17:56, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
On the other hand, if the sentence gets identified as synthesis, there would be no chance of reinserting it.- MangoWong ( talk) 17:59, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

Soon after the expiry of your 31-hour block for edit warring at Yadav, you have gone back in and continued to revert mention of the source by fr:Christophe Jaffrelot, that was mentioned in the closure of the last 3RR report on 17 August. If you believe that you have consensus to remove the reference to Jaffrelot, please give us the name of anyone who supports your edit.

You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war according to the reverts you have made on
Yadav. 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.
In particular, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; 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 continue edit warring, you may be blocked from editing. Sitush ( talk) 16:25, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
