To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}}
on your userpage.
Please remember to:
- Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes
~~~~
at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp. - Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.

DS/Alert - India/Pakistan/Afghanistan
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. To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place{{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. 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. As mentioned above, this is just an alert. Welcome to editing on India/Pakistan/Afghanistan topics! |
Oops. I forget to sign the alert. Chaipau (talk) 13:07, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Chaipau: I am unable to understand why I got this message. Northeast heritage (talk) 13:36, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
- This is an alert not a warning. Since you are editing on topics related to India, you are made aware that the Wikipedia rules are applied with some additional mechanisms. Making you aware is a routine affair, it does not mean you have violated these policies. To understand this system, please look at WP:ACDS. The goal of this is to ensure Wikipedia continues to function properly. Chaipau (talk) 13:56, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
