An article you recently created, Varn(Jyotish), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

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 South Asian social groups. Due to past disruption in this topic area, the community has authorised uninvolved administrators to impose discretionary sanctions—such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks—on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, expected standards of behaviour, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic. For additional information, please see the guidance on these sanctions. 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.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article General category (reservation) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/General category (reservation) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Robert McClenon was:

Thank you for your submission, but the subject of this article already exists in Wikipedia. You can find it and improve it at General category (reservation) instead.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

Two copies of this page have been created, in draft space and in article space. It is not necessary to create two copies of the same page, and it annoys the reviewers. This is sometimes done in order to bypass Articles for Creation review. However, if a submitter is ready to have the article in article space, it can be moved into article space, rather than creating a copy. It is common for a page that has been duplicated in draft space and in article space to be nominated for deletion or proposed for deletion. If the article is kept, this draft should be redirected to the article. If the article is deleted, this draft may be kept for future improvement.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:General category (reservation) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Riteshmmec! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Robert McClenon (talk) 19:09, 17 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into General category (reservation). This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. Liz ^{Read!

I've reverted this edit to Caste system in India because it makes no sense to me. What were you going for here? Ovinus (talk) 09:11, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ovinus all people/castes were categorised into one of the four classes called varnas. Only this was mentioned in the edit. Riteshmmec (talk) 09:24, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ovinus Replacing the word 'Varnas' by 'Classes' in the introductory paragraph edit might have made sense, i think. Riteshmmec (talk) 09:29, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ovinus The first paragraph is not reflecting the essence (as mentioned above) of the topic. Riteshmmec (talk) 10:18, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, but the varnas are mentioned at the end of the paragraph. I agree that first paragraph is pretty bad. Ovinus (talk) 16:43, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ovinus the main word 'classification' is not mentioned even at the end of the paragraph. Riteshmmec (talk) 16:50, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest you take your arguments to the talk page so that someone more knowledgeable than me can discuss it. As others noted above, articles about the Indian caste system are a bit of a minefield; be careful. Ovinus (talk) 16:54, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Curbon7 was:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Varna (birth attribute) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.

Curbon7 (talk) 16:52, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to Varna (Hinduism) and Varna. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been removed. Thank you. Arjayay (talk) 17:42, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Theroadislong was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please stop your disruptive editing.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Varna (Hinduism), you may be blocked from editing. PepperBeast (talk) 17:59, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Pepperbeast, adding links to other Wikipedia pages is 'disruptive editing' according to you? Riteshmmec (talk) 18:22, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Repeatedly adding links to draft articles or articles that don't actually exist after you have been asked to stop is disruptive, yes. PepperBeast (talk) 18:31, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Pepperbeast Wikipedia encourages linking to pages even if they don't exist.

Add red links to articles to indicate that a page will be created soon or that an article should be created for the topic because the subject is notable and verifiable. Red links help Wikipedia grow Riteshmmec (talk) 19:18, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thus far, you have not established notability, and even with adequate sourcing, I don't see why the material wouldn't simply be included in Indian astrology. PepperBeast (talk) 19:24, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Pepperbeast Because of this reason. Riteshmmec (talk) 00:39, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Varna (Hinduism), did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Shudra. PepperBeast (talk) 18:07, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Pepperbeast the information was not incorrect in any sense. It was moreover properly cited. Ritez (talk) 18:15, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. A line in an astrology book does not overturn the very well-known and very well referenced basis of varna as a system of hereditary social class. Your editing is tendentious and absurd. PepperBeast (talk) 18:17, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Pepperbeast This concept of "hereditary" social class fails when you think of the criteria for including the first person in a particular class. This one line in astrology is effectively linked to the whole of humanity. Ritez (talk) 18:26, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not debating your WP:OR with you. PepperBeast (talk) 19:12, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Ritesh, We appreciate your addition to Wikipedia, but the article you are attempting to write is already available on Mainspace as Varna (Hinduism). DIVINE (talk) 18:36, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You have been warned about our sanctions on castes and similar as well as expectations for sourcing and NPOV. Now I'm going to warn you about moving pages without consensus. Do not move this article again without consensus, and specifically do not move it at all while it is being discussed at AFD. If you do so again, I will request a block of your account on all of the grounds mentioned above. PRAXIDICAE🌈 19:40, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Shudra, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Minister.
