You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you believe that there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. UtherSRG (talk) 20:47, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Storm infantry (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I have been blocked for 72 hours for reverting the edits which used sources that violated WP:RAJ on Talpur Dynasty article, such as following: 1. Burke, Edmund (1844). Annual Register. Longmans, Green. 2. Trevor, George (1858). India: An Historical Sketch. Religious Tract Society. 3. Calcutta Magazine and Monthly Register. S. Smith & Company. 1831 4. Balfour, Edward (1873). Cyclopædia of India and of Eastern and Southern Asia, Commercial, Industrial and Scientific: Products of the Mineral, Vegetable and Animal Kingdoms, Useful Arts and Manufactures. Printed at the Scottish & Adelphi presses. 5. Thornton, Edward (1844). A Gazetteer of the Countries Adjacent to India on the Northwest: Including Sinde, Afghanistan, Beloochistan, the Punjab, and the Neighbouring States. W.H. Allen. ISBN 978-1-5358-0494-3. 6. India.), James BURNES (Physician-General of (1829). Narrative of a Visit to the Court of ... the Ameers of Sínde, at Hyderabad ... in the year 1827-28, compiled officially for the Government of Bombay, by James Burnes ... Presented by ... the Governor in Council to the Literary Society. [With a table.] L.P. Perusal of the Author's Friends. p. 19.

Decline reason:

WP:RAJ is a personal opinion article, not a Wikipedia policy or guideline. I would not consider that an exception to WP:EW. If you can demonstrate pre-existing consensus on the article talk page, that would likely justify lifting your block. Yamla (talk) 22:07, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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.

@Yamla There is a community consensus on all RAJ related articles that we should avoid using outdated colonial references to support an article. In this specific case too, the sources aren't even WP:RS, they're WP:PRIMARY colonial texts, so they do not adhere to the guideline of WP:RS. See Talpur dynasty's talk, "We have a real problem here due to reliance on an old source from 1922 - see WP:RAJ, WP:HISTRS and a bunch of past discussions at WP:RSN" Therefore reverting edits to maintain the integrity of the article should not warrant a block.

Thanks for your contributions to Battle of Pishin. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
