Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Religion in India, but we cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say.

Hi Karansarathy, I had to undo your edits to White Namibians and Baster. When new population numbers become available, they cannot just be copied into the article without providing a new reference. Otherwise content would become inconsistent, with an old source apparently supporting a new number.

If you have newer references, by all means put them in. If you need help, just drop me a line. Cheers, Pgallert ( talk) 10:03, 3 August 2014 (UTC) reply

Response: Hello Pgallert, 124,000 of 2.1 million is less than 6%. The white namibian population is estimated to be 8%, while other sources state 6%. The correct population should than be 130,000-154,000. If your not going to change it, I will change the population with the right sources. You can't argue the sources and the math!!!. According to the Namibian government, white namibians make up 8% of the population. This is the most recent source of 2003.

Hi Karansarathy, the template to ping me is {{u|Pgallert}}, but that is not necessary as I'm watching your user talk page for a few days. All I'm saying is that the old source cannot support the new numbers. If you have newer numbers, please put them in and source it, then there is no problem. Cheers, Pgallert ( talk) 20:14, 3 August 2014 (UTC) reply

Pgallert, so where did 124,000 come from?, atleast I know where 154,000 came from, The Government of Namibia. That's the latest source. After 2003, there aren't reliable sources pertaining to the figures.

Have you got a url for that? The older numbers come from a scientific paper (for Basters) and from a web site which is no longer reachable (for Whites). Cheers, Pgallert ( talk) 08:01, 4 August 2014 (UTC) reply

Welcome to Wikipedia. I notice that you added some content to Asian American that appears to be a minority or fringe viewpoint. Unfortunately, this edit appears to give undue weight to this minority viewpoint, and has been reverted. To maintain a neutral point of view, an idea that is not broadly supported by scholarship in its field must not be given undue weight in an article about a mainstream idea.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Nambudiri. 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.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

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 engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Sitush ( talk) 18:38, 22 May 2017 (UTC) reply

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.
