Hi Idell. I was just wondering why you deleted my edits to the Brooklyn Nets page, adding mention of Jason Kidd in the opening paragraphs? All the other NBA pages mention their important players in the heading section. Don't really understand why you reverted that. Shivj80 ( talk) 01:43, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
Hi Idell, you removed my contribution to ACCA page and stated " Information icon Hello, I'm Idell. I wanted to let you know that some of your recent contributions to Association of Chartered Certified Accountants have been reverted or removed because they seem to be defamatory or libellous. Take a look at our welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Idell (talk) 13:53, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
I am not sure if they are defamatory or libellous, howEver, what I wrote is based on facts (I provided evidence) and if facts are defamatory or libellous, then these facts need to be changed rather then asking me to to keep quite. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.1.235.57 ( talk) 19:45, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
I apologize for incorrectly stating you were OUTING an editor, thats what I get for editing half asleep...

Cow Protection is a very contentious matter in India. And is currently being used to suppress the Beef consuming Minorities in India; especially Muslims. https://www.hrw.org/news/2019/02/19/india-vigilante-cow-protection-groups-attack-minorities
The Edit removing spurious claims about the restrictions on beef consumption in Islam is necessary in order to keep information accurate & to inform people of the orthodox & majority opinion that is held by most Muslim populations including those in India. it's ture that Islam doesn't obligate Muslims to consume beef or Meat but it places no restrictions on Beef consumption either; unlike the claims in the citations. https://islamqa.info/en/answers/2521/ruling-on-not-eating-meat-or-dairy-products-veganism
As for verse 2:68 of the Quran; then it is a well known story of the Prophet Moses. It has nothing to do with Cow Slaughter for Meat consumption. Since you seem to know Arabic; For more information Read the verses 67-73 of Surah Al Baqarah & their explanation (Tafsir).
Wikipedia is a source of information to many people including Indians. However such misinformation about cow slaughter may then be used to create actual laws discriminating against Muslims as is currently happening in India.
I can say with complete confidence (100%); That my edit is correct & the information before the editing was wrong.

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

We don't create categories about empires unless their culture was totally alien to the present day culture. Can you describe your creations of [1] [2] [3] [4] and many other superfluous categories before I tag them for speedy deletion? Your best bet would be to self-request deletion. Aman Kumar Goel ( Talk) 11:02, 23 March 2021 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Category:Masjid al-Haram 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. Liz Read!

Hey Idell. The size looks just fine from the smartphone browser, although rendered with the wrong font, however on my computer from different browsers, it was very small, though with a correct Nastaliq font. That's why I increased the size on Urdu alphabet. -- Mahmudmasri ( talk) — Preceding undated comment added 16:07, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
On 28 April 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Zameen (novel), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the Urdu novel Zameen provides a woman-centric account of Pakistan's independence? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Zameen (novel). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, Zameen (novel)), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

OK, I admittedly jumped the gun on placing Speedway LLC in the past tense, but there was no reason to revert the rest of the edits. 7-Eleven DID close on the deal yesterday and it was properly cited. Maybe check and READ the sources before you decide to revert the edits to a page. Thanks! Jgera5 ( talk) 11:11, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

Then what is wrong with this reference ( [6])? You don't need to verifying stuff by your side. The Wikipedia administrator verifying the stuff given by the voluntaries. it's not your duty! ( Sehga ( talk) 02:17, 26 May 2021 (UTC))
Idell ( talk) 07:30, 26 May 2021 (UTC)Another common cause of citation overkill is simply that people want the source they've seen to be included in the article too, so they just tack it onto the end of existing content without making an effort to actually add any new content.
stop sending froggy statements again and again. Citation had helpful as per Wikipedia guidelines, editors should not attempt to change an article's established citation style merely on the grounds of personal preference. consensus for the change. The arbitration committee ruled in 2006: ( Sehga ( talk) 07:59, 26 May 2021 (UTC))
Citations are often omitted from the lead section of an article, insofar as the lead summarizes information for which sources are given later in the article.
Examples of ... citation overkill include: ...
• Citations which are added only to support their own existence as citations, rather than to actually support any substantive content about the topic. For instance, a citation to The New York Times might be used solely to support a statement that "This topic was covered by The New York Times", instead of to support any actual content about the topic verified by that New York Times citation.

Earlier this year, the Editing team ran a large study of the Reply Tool. The main goal was to find out whether the Reply Tool helped newer editors communicate on wiki. The second goal was to see whether the comments that newer editors made using the tool needed to be reverted more frequently than comments newer editors made with the existing wikitext page editor.
The key results were:
These results give the Editing team confidence that the tool is helpful.
Looking ahead
The team is planning to make the Reply tool available to everyone as an opt-out preference in the coming months. This has already happened at the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedias.
The next step is to resolve a technical challenge. Then, they will deploy the Reply tool first to the Wikipedias that participated in the study. After that, they will deploy it, in stages, to the other Wikipedias and all WMF-hosted wikis.
You can turn on "Discussion Tools" in Beta Features now. After you get the Reply tool, you can change your preferences at any time in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion.
