I've noticed you advocating deletion for some songs that may not meet WP:NSONG. Per that link, please note that Songs that do not rise to notability for an independent article should redirect to another relevant article, such as for the songwriter, a prominent album or for the artist who prominently performed the song. In the future, you can preempt deletion discussions by simply WP:BOLDly redirecting, as an alternative to deletion, if a good faith effort fails to find adequate sources. Cheers, --Animalparty!

Hello HindWIKI, would you mind explaining why you have reverted my last edit on List of metro systems? In truth, I'm not able to find a good reason to do it, and you really should have at least written down an edit summary - as Wikipedia guidelines ( REVEXP) strongly recommend in case of reverting - explaining why in your opinion the references I deleted should be kept in that article: rejecting what other editors did without giving them any hint on the reason isn't very polite, you know? 93.57.255.93 ( talk) 17:56, 8 December 2017 (UTC)
About the removed references, they are outaded and don't match anymore with their cells content: for very obvious reasons, the Ridership column is subject to constant updating; however, editors who made an update sometimes don't delete the older reference: either they did it for a good reason or mere inadvertence, sooner or later the time comes when it is advisable to proceed with the removal. Of course, there might be a good case for leaving also the older ridership reference in place, although the source is related to a previuos year than the one written in the cell, but it's not the case with my edit. About the added new parameters, I have no idea what you're talking about. Essentially, your reverting was arbitrary and without cause: I'm going to re-reverting it and I do hope you'll henceforward use the "pending changes reviewer" userright with greater judiciuosness. Sincerely, 93.57.255.93 ( talk) 09:11, 9 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi,
Please when you close AfD make sure you left the script to run completely to avoid half-result and if unsure; check to see whether the article page is updated by removing the AfD tag and the talkpage as appropriate. For instance, see this AfD that you closed as keep and see the page after your closure.– Ammarpad ( talk) 15:04, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
Please don't relist AfDs, opened by you.Thank you! Winged Blades Godric 18:59, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
To be honest I would suggest you stop closing/relisting AfDs altogether, at least for the time being. It's not a good task for new editors and your talk page is full of people telling you that you've made a mistake. Try participating in the discussions instead, and then observe how experienced admins close them. – Joe ( talk) 01:30, 22 December 2017 (UTC)
GA review is a 7 day process and this is the 7th day, without any comments or any activity. Are you going to review it or not? Krish | Talk 02:37, 22 December 2017 (UTC)
HindWiki. You're not experienced enough for GA review. The above editors are kindly suggestin you should stop GA review at least for now. But it seems you don't understand, so I am putting it plainly. Please don't take it personal, this place is very complicated and everybody at some times feels he understand it all, but more often those who remain here as suscessful editors are those who used to heed advise. Considering some short chat I came across at Primefac's talkpage about your talkpage on your Home wiki and how (and more importantly why) you're declined at AfC and NPR, and also now with litany of complain concerning your judgement at AfDs, I am strongly advising you to stop GA review for now. There's more important work out there than GA review. But this is not instruction, it is suggestion. Thanks.– Ammarpad ( talk)

Hi HindWiki, Is it possible to remove this template from Jaafar Al Ghazal. It has been more than 10 days and the template has not been removed!-- IamIRAQI ( talk) 10:24, 27 December 2017 (UTC)
Within a span of an hour that article was created, you have nominated it for deletion and of course speedied it before that. Such hasty nomination is frowned upon and it is always good to tag the article and get in touch with the creator to address these issues. Hope you refrain from hastily nominating an article or CSD'ing it. — LeoFrank Talk 09:29, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Request reason:
I am a good editor, you can see my contribution. When I first edit from username Singer Jethu Sisodiya, then I was not know any Wikipedia's policies and Vandalized it. But now I know all of Wikipedia's policies and respect them. I have made good edits, not vandalism after my blocked account. Please see my contribution and unblock me. I want to edit Wikipedia for good encyclopedia, not vandalism. Please unblock me
Decline reason:
You just admitted to being the sockpuppet of an account that has been CU blocked on en.wiki, and that account has also had numerous sockpuppets before you. I'm sorry, but this is an illegitimate use of multiple accounts, and an administrator is unable to unblock you without consulting a CU because you just admitted to being the sock of a CU blocked account. TonyBallioni ( talk) 15:45, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{ unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
A tag has been placed on Category:Rajput queen requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. — swpb T go beyond 17:06, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
