== "Contributions" linkage to the top header ==

[[File:Prop1.jpg|thumb|right|400px|Screenshot showing the current top header. The red box highlights where the new "Contributions" link should be added, next to the "Discuss" button.]]

Hello everyone, I would like to propose a small but highly impactful interface enhancement for Bharatpedia.
=== Current Situation ===
As shown in the screenshot above, the top header currently displays links for "Discuss," donation, appearance, and language. However, there is no quick access to view a user's contributions directly from the header. Users currently have to navigate through their personal user menu to find this link, which adds unnecessary steps to common task.
=== Proposed Change ===
I propose adding a dynamic "Contributions" icon directly in the top header bar, positioned next to the "Discuss" icon.

To match standard MediaWiki behavior and improve editor workflow, this link should be 'context-aware':

<ul>
<li>'''On regular pages (Articles, Main Page, etc.):''' The link should point to <code>Special:MyContributions</code> (showing the current user's own edit history).</li>
<li>'''On another user's User page or User talk page (Namespace 2 or 3):''' The link should dynamically extract the username from the page title and point to <code>Special:Contributions/[Username]</code> (showing that specific user's edit history).</li>
</ul>

Please let me know if anyone require any further details or explanation. Feel free to ask. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 16:27, 28 September 2026 (IST)

:I support this proposal. Adding a Contributions link to the top header would make it easier for editors to access their own or other users' edit histories without navigating through additional menus. This would be a useful improvement to the editing experience on Bharatpedia. [[User:Editorial Oversight|Editorial Oversight]][[User talk:Editorial Oversight|(Talk with me)]] 16:43, 28 September 2026 (IST)

:I support this proposal. Adding a Contributions icon to the header would make accessing edit histories much more convenient, especially for editors who frequently review their own or other users' contributions. I particularly like the context-aware behavior on User and User talk pages. One small consideration would be to ensure that user subpages are also handled correctly, so pages such as <code><nowiki>User:Example/Test</nowiki></code> still link to <code><nowiki>Special:Contributions/Example</nowiki></code>. Otherwise, this seems like a useful and practical interface improvement. [[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] ([[User talk:WikiDwarf|talk]]) 00:21, 29 September 2026 (IST)
::Thank you for the suggestion [[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]]. Yes, user subpages should definitely be handled as well. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 12:00, 29 September 2026 (IST)
:I agree with the above. In my opinion, there should also be a "Create account" button for logged-out users, because many users may not be aware that they can create an account to edit. The option is not clearly visible upfront so if there is enough space it worth adding extra button. [[User:Ajay Kumar|Ajay Kumar]] ([[User talk:Ajay Kumar|talk]]) 20:48, 29 September 2026 (IST)

=== Comments ===
* Hello {{ping|Bharatwiki_Socrates|Editorial Oversight|Ajay Kumar}} The proposal was sent to the tech team, and the first header changes are now on the site. Logged-out user see an info note, Create account, Log in, Donate, and a More menu. Logged-in editors see their username, a contributions link, and a user menu with their page, and other useful links. More also holds search, which lists matches as you type, plus Explore and common links. Language, dark mode, and font size are in that menu instead of sitting as separate buttons. The Discuss button has been removed from the top bar and will be added somewhere else. Please add your comment if you have any suggestion to improve it further. Thank you. [[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] ([[User talk:WikiDwarf|talk]]) 14:20, 2 October 2026 (IST)
*:I have a different suggestion. I believe Bharatpedia needs more editors who actively contribute to the platform. This can only happen if more people become aware of Bharatpedia, as currently, very few people know about it, and many of its editors appear to have come from Wikipedia.
*:I suggest that Bharatpedia organise occasional campaigns, events, and meetups to attract new contributors. Existing editors should also receive recognition for their contributions. Sharing event photographs, group pictures, and editor achievements on social media could help increase awareness and encourage more people to join the community.
*:Recognising good-faith contributors and organising community events can help build a stronger editing community. These initiatives could encourage new editors to join Bharatpedia and motivate existing editors to remain active.

*:@[[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]], I think the user-page contribution icon still needs an update. When viewing another editor's user page, the '''Contributions''' icon currently links to my own contributions. Instead, it should link to the contributions of the editor whose user page I'm viewing.
*:So, if I open <code>User:Example</code>, clicking the Contributions icon should open <code>Special:Contributions/Example</code>, not my own contribution list. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 20:53, 2 October 2026 (IST)

*:Wikipedia handles it by adding contributions page in user signatures by default along with user page and talk page. It comes quite handy.

== Add Frequently visited pages ==

Can you add an easy button for frequently visited pages? It should also incorporate the ability to bookmark certain pages for quick access. @[[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] [[User:Dokania|Dokania]] ([[User talk:Dokania|talk]]) 17:35, 28 September 2026 (IST)

== AI edit summary ==

GitHub uses AI for edit summary and other such petty tasks. It's very helpful. Can Bharatpedia utilise it too? I think one way to overshadow wikipedia is to utilise AI wisely as they are very conservative and hostile towards AI use. @[[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] @[[User:Bharatwiki Socrates|Bharatwiki Socrates]] [[User:Dokania|Dokania]] ([[User talk:Dokania|talk]]) 17:37, 28 September 2026 (IST)

:I am writing [[Bharatpedia:AI]] and will mention a few editors for policy guideline improvements, including you. I strongly believe that people must adapt to the evolving times. If anyone uses AI for correcting minor grammatical or punctuation errors, grouping, and fixing reference syntax issues, there is no problem. However, the full responsibility falls on the user. If a user introduces any false information, possible sanctions will apply to them. Therefore, AI must be used responsibly. Users are not permitted to claim that an error is due to AI; they must take full responsibility. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 17:53, 28 September 2026 (IST)
::Exactly my point. We can also issue guidelines on how to use AI efficiently and responsibly [[User:Dokania|Dokania]] ([[User talk:Dokania|talk]]) 17:58, 28 September 2026 (IST)

== Show matching article in draft ==
{{atop|status=resolved|reason=Now you can see which draft articles are already present in mainspace using Bharatmitra}}
Please make a feature that article name matching to the draft name should be automatically displayed in the draft if it's not a redirect. For example, Draft:Narendra Modi should also display that article named Narendra Modi already exist in mainspace. [[User:Dokania|Dokania😎]][[User talk:Dokania|(📩)]] 22:22, 17 October 2026 (IST)
:The feature is now live, and it works through the Bharat Mitra gadget. When a draft is opened, in view or edit mode, and an article with the same name already exists in mainspace, a notice appears at the top of the draft naming that article. No notice appears when the mainspace page is only a redirect, or when the draft itself is a redirect. Who can see it: the notice is loaded by Bharat Mitra, so it is visible only to editors who have the Bharat Mitra gadget enabled in their preferences. Editors who do not use Bharat Mitra will not see it. It works only on draft pages, not on articles or talk pages. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 11:42, 12 November 2026 (IST)

::: Dokania you've again forgotten to sign your comment, so please remember to sign it. I don't think we'll reach a consensus on creating a tool to remove all red links as I oppose it.

== Archive and bare url tags in twinkle ==

There is a tag in Twinkle called {{:Cleanup bare URLs}}. I think articles carrying this tag should be moved automatically to a category or a special page so that they can be fixed more easily.

We should also introduce a new tag called {{unarchived}} in twinkle to be placed on articles that do not have their links archived. When this tag is added, it should be processed automatically by [[User:BharatwikiArchiveBot|BP:Bharatwikiarchive bot]]. [[User:Dokania|Dokania😎]][[User talk:Dokania|(📩)]] 13:12, 26 October 2026 (IST)
===Twinkle on Mobile Version===
@[[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] @[[User:Bharatwiki Socrates|Bharatwiki Socrates]] I think we should consider working on implementing '''Mobile Twinkle on Bharatpedia''', as it would be very useful for editors who primarily contribute using mobile devices. I travel frequently and cannot carry my laptop everywhere. Because of this, I have been inactive on Bharatpedia for the past few days due to my laptop-related limitations. Having Mobile Twinkle would make it much easier for editors like me to contribute while travelling, perform administrative and maintenance tasks, and remain active in the community without depending on a laptop. I would like to request the administrators to consider this initiative. I believe it could improve the mobile editing experience and encourage more consistent participation from mobile editors.

::::::@[[User:Editorial Oversight|Editorial Oversight]], You are most welcome to help, and no, you do not need to be an administrator for this. Any editor can develop and test a script in their own userspace (for example, a test page under User:Editorial Oversight/) and load it from their personal js page, so creating and testing scripts is open to everyone. Administrator or interface-admin rights are only needed at the last step, when a finished script is installed site-wide as a gadget for all users. Twinkle is nothing but a set of JavaScript modules loaded through a gadget, and the mobile problem is mostly about where its menu and dialogs appear in the mobile view. A good way to start is to note down exactly what does not appear or does not work when you use Twinkle on mobile, then try fixing it step by step in a test copy. I am happy to help with testing and with the JavaScript and gadget side where I can. Regards.

:::::::Thank you for explaining this. I wasn't aware that regular editors could create and test scripts through their personal JS pages without administrator rights. I'll start by checking which Twinkle features are not working properly in the mobile view and document the issues. I'll also try creating a test copy on my personal JS page. Your guidance with JavaScript and gadget development would be really helpful. I'd be happy to learn and contribute to improving Mobile Twinkle on Bharatpedia.

*'''Update''' : Twinkle now works in the mobile view, for everyone.

'''What was wrong'''
# The Twinkle, morebits and select2 gadgets had no "targets" in [[MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition]], so they never loaded on the mobile site at all.
# Twinkle places its links in the "p-cactions" portlet. Desktop skins render that portlet, but the mobile skin (Minerva) does not render it anywhere, so even a loaded Twinkle had nowhere to show its links on mobile.

'''What has been changed'''
# [[MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition]]: Twinkle, morebits, select2 and Twinkle-pagestyles now have <code>targets=desktop,mobile</code>.
# New adapter [[MediaWiki:Gadget-TwinkleMobile.js]], loaded as the first file of the Twinkle gadget. On the Minerva skin only, it creates the missing portlet as an on-screen panel, adds a "Twinkle" entry to the page actions (More) menu, adds a floating "TW" button on pages that have no such menu, and sizes Twinkle dialogs to fit phone screens. Other skins are not touched.

'''How it looks now'''
<gallery>
File:Twinkle on mobile - More menu (Bharatpedia).jpg|The "Twinkle" entry in the page actions (More) menu
File:Twinkle on mobile - options panel (Bharatpedia).jpg|Tapping "Twinkle" opens the options panel on screen
File:Twinkle on mobile - TW button (Bharatpedia).jpg|On protected pages without the actions menu, a floating "TW" button opens the panel
</gallery>

'''How to switch it on'''
# Enable the Twinkle gadget, the same as on desktop: Preferences, Gadgets section, "Twinkle" (available to autoconfirmed users).
# Open any page in the mobile view. On a phone you already get the mobile view (Minerva skin) automatically. On desktop you can test it through the "Mobile view" link at the bottom of a page, or by choosing the Minerva skin in Preferences, Appearance.
# On an article, the panel shows Last, Tag, CSD, PP, Unlink and XFD. User pages, talk pages and diffs show their usual extra options (Warn, ARV, rollback and so on), just like on desktop.

Please try it on your phones and report any problem here. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 05:54, 1 November 2026 (IST)
:+'''Manual always-on option''': If the Twinkle gadget ever switches itself off in your preferences, you can also load Twinkle from your personal JavaScript page. Open [[Special:MyPage/common.js]], add this line at the end (do not remove anything already on that page), and save:
:<code>mw.loader.load( 'ext.gadget.Twinkle' );</code>
:Twinkle will then load from your personal common.js on every skin, including the mobile view, even if the gadget checkbox is off.

== Feature Request: Enhanced “All Pages” Section with Advanced Filters ==

====Summary====
Introduce a comprehensive **All Pages** section that allows users to browse, sort, and filter the entire collection of articles using multiple useful criteria. This would turn a basic page list into a powerful discovery and quality-control tool.

====Proposed Functionality====
Create a dedicated “All Pages” interface that displays every article on Bharatpedia and supports rich filtering and sorting options. Suggested filters include (but are not limited to):

* Page size (word count or byte size)
* Number of bare URLs
* Number of references / citations
* Other useful metrics such as number of interwiki links, last edit date, page protection status, number of categories, presence of infoboxes, etc.

Users should be able to combine these filters, sort results by any of the criteria, and quickly locate articles that meet specific quality or structural conditions.

====Rationale====
A feature-rich All Pages section would make it significantly easier to:

* Discover articles that need improvement (e.g., pages with many bare URLs or very few references)
* Identify high-quality or well-referenced content
* Perform bulk quality assessment and maintenance
* Find articles based on structural characteristics rather than only by title or category

Overall, this would greatly increase the usefulness of the site for both readers and editors by enabling more precise sorting, filtering, and discovery of content. [[User:Dokania|Dokania😎]][[User talk:Dokania|(📩)]] 17:31, 6 November 2026 (IST)

:::'''Support''' – I support this proposal. An advanced “All Pages” section would be very useful for article maintenance, quality checks and identifying pages that need improvement.
:::I would also like to suggest adding a '''reference and citation checking feature'''. While filling in references, errors sometimes appear in the preview, but after publishing, those errors may no longer be visible. It would be helpful to have a tool that checks references and clearly identifies formatting errors, invalid citations and dead links.
:::In particular, detecting '''dead references (links that no longer work)''' would be extremely useful. Editors could quickly identify and fix broken sources, helping maintain the reliability and quality of Bharatpedia articles.

== Proposal: XFDcloser Gadget ==

@[[User:Bharatwiki Socrates|Bharatwiki Socrates]] I propose introducing the <nowiki>'''XFDcloser''' gadget on Bharatpedia, based on Wikipedia'</nowiki>s XFDcloser.

The gadget would help administrators and authorised users close or relist deletion discussions (AfD, CfD, FfD, MfD, RfD and TfD) more easily.

'''Key features:'''

* Quick close options (Keep/Delete).
* Automatic addition and removal of discussion templates.
* Relisting discussions.
* Seven-day discussion age warnings.
* Hide or show closed discussions.

I request community feedback and support for adapting and implementing this gadget on Bharatpedia. [[User:Editorial Oversight|Editorial Oversight]][[User talk:Editorial Oversight|(Talk with me)]] 14:13, 9 November 2026 (IST)

:It can be added to Bharatmitra. [[User:Dokania|Dokania😎]][[User talk:Dokania|(📩)]] 14:18, 9 November 2026 (IST)
:We already have an XFDcloser gadget implemented on Bharatpedia. It can be enabled through Preferences → Gadgets. However, the gadget currently has a few bugs that I am working to fix.

== Request for review: Draft:Sanjay Ghare ==

Hi,

Hope you're doing well. I have a draft biography at [[Draft:Sanjay Ghare]] that has been in the AfC queue for over three weeks. It was initially reviewed and declined on 16 July 2026 for insufficient independent sourcing, which I addressed in a full rewrite on 17 July. It has been pending re-review since.

When you have some time, would you be able to take a look? I've tried to address the notability concerns with independent editorial coverage.

Current sourcing:

* YourStory (2020 profile of the company and founder)
* PhocusWire (acquisition coverage, August 2023)
* Startup Pedia (biographical profile)
* Get Latka (business coverage)
* World Travel Tech Awards (industry recognition)
* Forbes editorial column (2025)

The subject is the co-founder and CEO of Vervotech, a Pune-based travel technology company acquired by Constellation Software in 2023.

I understand reviewers are volunteers and appreciate the time you take on this. Happy to make any further improvements if the sourcing still falls short.

:::::::::Done. The closure templates for AfD discussions are ready. To close a discussion, place <nowiki>{{subst:Afd top|Result:______. ~~~~}}</nowiki> at the very top of the discussion page and <nowiki>{{subst:Afd bottom}}</nowiki> at the very bottom; the discussion text in between stays untouched. The pair already existed from an old import, but it had no documentation and only the "Afd" spelling worked. The result line of [[Template:Afd top]] has been standardised, both templates now carry full documentation (usage, standard results, and the steps after closing, including removing the discussion from its deletion sorting list), and [[Template:AfD top]] and [[Template:AfD bottom]] redirects have been created so both spellings work. A matching pair for closing reports on the edit warring noticeboard, [[Template:Edit warring top]] and [[Template:Edit warring bottom]], has been created as well.

:::::@[[User:Editorial Oversight|Editorial Oversight]], You should issue the appropriate Level 1 warning for an initial violation. If the user repeats the violation within the same month, escalate the warnings progressively to Level 2, Level 3 and finally Level 4. Level 4 should serve as the final warning. Any further violation after a Level 4 warning make the user eligible for an immediate block.

== About [[BP:AN/EW]] ==

# I don't find your assessment of the case fair. It was more of a diplomatic balancing rather than a fair judgement. [[user:Editorial Oversight]] hadn't even been asked to apologise to me for those remarks. Though I find that he apologized to you.
# If G2 is removed repeatedly what am I supposed to do? I still want that G2 request to be processed properly.
# If he keeps removing warnings from his talk page, Isn't it removal of evidence. How would anyone else know that he has been already warned?
# What was his qualification or need to remove requests from the bot? The bot only processed 4 out of 13 references. That's why I entered it again. I still want the bot to process it again and skip it if it can't process more refs but reverting is just disruptive editing.

:I noticed that you applied for adminship a few days ago, but your request was declined by the community. An administrator's role is not to block users without proper reasons but to make fair and neutral decisions based on policies and evidence. I believe @[[User:Bharatwiki Socrates|Bharatwiki Socrates]] have handled this situation correctly, and I 100% support hes decision. Good job, Admin! [[User:Editorial Oversight|Editorial Oversight]][[User talk:Editorial Oversight|(Talk with me)]] 12:37, 4 November 2026 (IST)
: @[[User:Dokania|Dokania]], I have read all four points. The case is closed and I am not reopening it, but each point deserves a direct answer. '''On fairness and the apology.''' The findings balanced nothing. They state in writing that Editorial Oversight crossed the three-revert line on one page and that his personal remarks were not acceptable, and he stands formally cautioned for both. The sanction was measured because your own conduct was part of the same cycle. An administrator cannot order one editor to apologise to another; that is a personal matter. For the record, he has since apologised on this very page for going too far with his words. '''On the G2 tag.''' I have looked at [[Draft:Deshabhimani Theatres]] myself. It is a genuine, if small, draft with an infobox and references, not a test page, so the G2 criterion does not apply and the tag will not be restored. That is the request processed: a tag being declined is also a decision. If you believe the subject is not notable, the route is a draft deletion discussion (Miscellany for Deletion--MfD), not a speedy tag that does not fit the page. '''On removing warnings.''' Removing warnings from one's own talk page is allowed and is treated as the editor having read them. Nothing is erased by it: every warning remains permanently in the page history and in its diffs, which is exactly what administrators check, and your own report quoted those diffs. No evidence is lost. '''On the bot requests page.''' The request had already been processed by the bot and was listed in the completed section. If you believed the archiving was incomplete, the way to raise it was a fresh note saying what was left, not re-adding the same request and reverting its removal three times. Any editor may tidy that queue, and the removals carried their reasons in the edit summaries. The direction at the end of the case applies to both of you: disengage from each other completely. Please follow it. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 12:38, 4 November 2026 (IST)
::# Admin can always ask but not order the apology. Anyways it doesn't matter. Unheartly apology means nothing to me. So let's excuse that.
::# Very well. I have raised an XFD for it. The draft doesn't have any reference. It was created by temporary user and lacks any meaningful content.
::# Acceptable though accountability would be harder.
::# What do you mean by fresh note? I specified in edit summary that i had added new refs since my first request of the article.

:::By “fresh note,” I mean adding a completely new request. If you’ve added a new reference, then reverting is not a solution, reverting clearly erases the record of the bot’s work as well.

::::I had added a completely new request (fresh note, right?). It was then reverted by him [[User:Dokania|Dokania😎]][[User talk:Dokania|(📩)]] 13:58, 4 November 2026 (IST)
:::::You are right about one narrow thing, and it changes nothing. Yes, the entry you added at 19:28 on 3 November was a new line and not an undo; nobody has disputed that. But look at what that line was: the identical request, "* [[Prabhakar Joshi]]", for an article the bot had processed the same day at 17:27, with its completed entry ("4 change(s)") still sitting in the completed section of the same page. The line itself stated no reason at all. Your reason, a rescan for new references, existed only in your edit summary, which is not part of the request and is not what a reader of the queue sees. Editorial Oversight read it as a duplicate because, on the face of the page, that is exactly what it was. And the finding you are arguing against was never about that entry. It was about what you did next: undoing an explained removal three times instead of saying one sentence anywhere, here or on his talk page: "I have re-added it because new references need a rescan." One sentence would have ended it. That part of the decision stands exactly as written. The practical point is easily settled. If [[Prabhakar Joshi]] still has references left to fix, add the request once more and write the reason in the request itself, for example "rescan: references remain after the 3 November run". A request that explains itself will not be removed as a duplicate, and it will be processed in the normal course. This is my last word on this case on this page. The report is closed, the findings stand, and re-arguing them further will not produce a different answer.

::::::I do not know why any editor needs to revert my request to the bot, if the bot is capable of simply skipping it. Arguing that it only existed in edit summary isn't correct.

::: Dokania, you have issued me a level 2 warning for adding or changing content without a source. Two questions arise from this:
:::*1. Which edit are you referring to? Your warning names no article and gives no diff, and the template's article parameter was left blank, so the warning does not identify any edit of mine at all.
:::*2. Why has this been issued directly at level 2? There is no level 1 warning on this talk page, and warnings in this series start at level 1 and escalate when the similar conduct is repeated after the previous warning.
:::If you failed to failed to justify your warn, a misuse of warn template warn is on the way to be issued on your talkpage. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 21:12, 4 November 2026 (IST)
::::I wanted to use the general note template but it's preview doesn't suit at all. It should be rewritten for being usable as it says that your material is removed which is not the case.
::::It's not about a single article. You have created many articles today which have no citations at all as I had seen on [[Special:Newpagesfeed]] [[User:Dokania|Dokania😎]][[User talk:Dokania|(📩)]] 21:19, 4 November 2026 (IST)
:::::@[[User:Dokania|Dokania]], glad you explained, but your comment doesn't hold justification for your warn.
::::::*'''On the level''': you have now confirmed that you skipped level 1 only because you did not like its wording, as it speaks of material being removed. A warning level is not chosen by which template text reads better, it records how many times the editor has already been warned about the same conduct. If no warning template fits a situation, the course is a plain note in your own words, not a level 2 warning on a first approach.
::::::*'''On the articles''': asked twice, you still have not named one. "Many articles" seen on the new pages feed is not an identification, and that feed lists every editor's new pages, not only mine. {{Tq|For the record, the pages I created today are 34 short articles and 5 redirects, made to clear the red links in [[Bharatpedia:Notability (organizations and companies)]].

:::::::::So, you are misinterpreting. I haven't added anything that raises verifiability concerns; they were simply stub articles containing the most basic and unquestionable information. Yes, stubs do not necessarily require citations from the very beginning, if the topic itself is notable, which is the case here. See [[Bharatpedia:Stub]] :{{tq|"A stub is an article that, although providing some useful information, lacks the breadth of coverage expected from an encyclopedia, and that is capable of expansion."}}

[[User:Dokania|Dokania😎]][[User talk:Dokania|(📩)]] 06:47, 5 November 2026 (IST)
:::::::::::the sentence you quote from [[BP:RS]] does not say what you are using it for. It says the verifiability policy applies strictly to all mainspace material, and the policy itself, [[BP:V]], states what that requires: material must be verifiable, and an inline citation is required for quotations and for material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged. The opening summary of BP:RS says the same in so many words. {{Tq|Neither page says that every stub must carry a citation from its first revision.}} Your challenge point is equally overstated. Material that is challenged and needs a source may be removed, and that is a remedy for a specific statement in a specific article. It is not a deletion of the article, and lack of citations is not a deletion criterion. In three replies you have still not challenged one statement in one article. And nobody has claimed that content is self-verified, or that calling a page a stub exempts it. These pages are basic definitions of established subjects, created for the red links of a guideline. If any statement in any of them is challenged, it will be sourced or removed, like any other statement on the wiki. Name the page and the line, and that process can begin. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 07:49, 5 November 2026 (IST)
::::::::::::Why will I challenge? I don't have problems with the materials but the overlooking of citations.
::::::::::::I am just telling you that they should be in draft unless they pass [[BP:V]]. Filling mainspace with unsourced stubs degrade the quality of Bharatpedia. I believe now you are just arguing for the sake of it and there's no substance in such arguments.
::::::::::::@[[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] I think you can decide on it at last. [[User:Dokania|Dokania😎]][[User talk:Dokania|(📩)]] 08:46, 5 November 2026 (IST)
:::::::::::::Dokania, I would like to clarify that creating stub articles with just one source, a few sources, or even without citations initially can be acceptable, provided the subject itself is notable.
:::::::::::::The key consideration should be the notability of the subject, not simply the number of citations in the initial stub. For instance, if a subject already has an article in established encyclopaedias such as Wikipedia or Encyclopaedia Britannica, that is a good indication that it warrants encyclopaedic coverage. In such cases, I see no reason to immediately tag the stub for deletion simply because it lacks references. We can retain it and gradually expand it with additional details and reliable sources as more volunteers contribute.
:::::::::::::On the other hand, if a subject has no coverage in other established encyclopaedias and we cannot find any reliable sources to establish its notability, then it would be reasonable to tag the article for deletion or move it to draft space for further development.
:::::::::::::Since Bharatpedia is still in its development stage, I believe we should encourage content creation while maintaining basic notability standards. My suggestion is to cross-check the subject's notability before taking any action. If the subject is notable and the article can be developed, we should focus on expanding it with reliable sources rather than immediately tagging it for deletion or issuing warnings to the creator.
:::::::::::::The objective should be to build and improve the encyclopaedia collaboratively, while ensuring that the subjects we cover are genuinely encyclopaedic. [[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] ([[User talk:WikiDwarf|talk]]) 11:20, 5 November 2026 (IST)
::::::::::::::If the consensus is thus. I can't say anything.

Hey, I wanted to ask for your advice regarding adminship on Bharatpedia. I'm considering applying for administrator rights. I have experience with AfD discussions, vandalism reporting, reverting problematic edits, and other maintenance activities. Could you also tell me whether there is a minimum account age requirement for adminship, or whether eligibility is based mainly on edit count, experience, and community trust? I'd appreciate your honest feedback on whether I should apply at this stage.

::There is no separate written minimum account age for adminship here. In practice the community judges the whole record: edit count and quality, maintenance work, conduct with other editors, and the trust built over time, and account age becomes part of that, because a longer history is what proves the rest. On work, your record is is good but your account is still young, created on 16 September 2026, so not yet two months old, my advice is not to apply yet. Keep doing the constructive edits.

:::In your opinion, do you think I am suitable for adminship? I have been involved with encyclopaedia projects for quite some time, so I can understand policies and guidelines quite easily.
:::I am also interested in interface-related work, but I haven't found clear guidance on how to get involved in that area. I was thinking of discussing it with you.

::::I can't strongly judge any account based on few days interaction. Your maintenance work, AfD participation and the proposals you keep bringing show that you understand the policies and the work well. But suitability and a successful nomination are two different things. In a nomination the community can only judge what it can see on this encyclopedia, and a record of under two months, however good, is hard for people to support, because adminship needs trust built over time here. So my honest opinion stays the same: a nomination today would most likely fail on account age alone, and a failed nomination only makes the next one harder. Wait until the account has a few more months (atleast 6+) behind it, keep the same visible work going, and then a clearly written nomination explaining your experience, contributions and reasons would stand a real chance. On interface work: that is a separate and sensitive right, because it means editing sitewide JavaScript and CSS, so it is given only after technical work is proven. The entry path is the one you are already on: bring proposals like your rollback warning one, draft code in your personal common.js or a sandbox first, and discuss it at the Village pump. Do that for a few small ideas and I will gladly go through them with you. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 15:25, 11 November 2026 (IST)

Before the test I found the XFDcloser switch in my own Preferences turned off, although I had it on earlier. Gadget switches on this site are turning themselves off on their own, a server-side fault I first found on 1 November. If your switch has gone off the same way, the Close and Relist controls never load, so the relist fails before it can start. Check that switch once under Special:Preferences, Gadgets.

*Update: investigated further, and the fault is found. It is in the AfD relist only: the gadget reads today's log page before it starts, and on days when nobody has nominated anything yet, that log page does not exist here, so the process dies at its first step with a script error and never completes.

Madhava Memorial College discussion as a test, all four steps completed, and it now sits on today's log. Your relists should work now. One caution: on any future day, the first AfD relist will fail the same way until that day's log page exists; creating the log page first, with the standard AfD log template, clears it.

== Temporary account IP viewer ==

Has the Temporary IP Viewer user right not been implemented on Bharatpedia yet? [[User:Editorial Oversight|Editorial Oversight]][[User talk:Editorial Oversight|(Talk with me)]] 00:20, 13 November 2026 (IST)
:The user group exists here: checkuser-temporary-account-viewer, carrying the checkuser-temporary-account right, but it has no members, and the temporary accounts feature itself is not switched on. Logged-out editors still edit under their raw IP addresses, as with the IPs reported today, and no temporary account exists on the wiki. So the right is present in the software but has nothing to work on until temporary accounts are enabled in the server configuration. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 00:49, 13 November 2026 (IST)
::How can we work on enabling this feature? I have also noticed that Bharatpedia has several user groups and permissions that are available in the software but are not currently in use. Many of them don't even have dedicated project pages explaining their purpose, permissions or requirements.
::Could we create a central project page documenting all user groups, their permissions, current status and implementation requirements? This would help editors understand which rights are active, which are unused, and what steps are needed to make them available.

The following superfamilies are included in Obtectomera:<ref name="vanNieukerken2011"/>

* [[Whalleyanoidea]]
* [[Thyridoidea]] – picture-winged leaf moths
* [[Hyblaeoidea]] – teak moths
* [[Calliduloidea]] – Old World butterfly-moths
* [[Papilionoidea]] – true butterflies
* [[Pyraloidea]] – pyraloid moths
* [[Mimallonoidea]] – sack-bearer moths
* [[Macroheterocera]]
** [[Drepanoidea]]
** [[Noctuoidea]]
** [[Geometroidea]]
** [[Lasiocampoidea]]
** [[Bombycoidea]]

Other superfamilies are sometimes included, including [[Pterophoroidea]], [[Alucitoidea]], [[Copromorphoidea]], [[Epermenioidea]] and [[Gelechioidea]].<ref name="MitterDavis2017"/>

Earlier classifications placed macroheteroceran superfamilies within [[Macrolepidoptera]]. However, molecular studies have not consistently supported Macrolepidoptera as a monophyletic group.<ref name="vanNieukerken2011"/><ref name="MitterDavis2017"/>

In 1993, Mohammed Rashid Khan operated gambling establishments in the Bowbazar area and maintained a workshop above his office where he manufactured small bombs. He had accumulated a stockpile of explosives, which detonated accidentally on the night of 16 March. The blast occurred at night; a larger number of casualties might have occurred had it taken place during the day.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Vadukut |first1=Sidin |title=Déjà View {{!}} Relative magnitudes |url=https://www.livemint.com/Opinion/bYyQQhSZZAAQKGh9wXxeVO/Dj-View--Relative-magnitudes.html |work=Livemint |date=31 July 2015 |language=en}}</ref>

Criticism of Swaminarayan Sampradaya

ButterflyCat: +Category:Hinduism-related controversies; +Category:Caste system in India using HotCat

'''Criticism of the [[Swaminarayan Sampraday|Swaminarayan sect]]''' has focused on various aspects of its religious beliefs and practices. These include objections to the worship of [[Swaminarayan|Sahajanand Swami]] as God and debates concerning the sect's interpretation

== Early criticism ==
Several years after the establishment of the sect, the 19th-century Hindu reformer [[Dayananda Saraswati]] questioned the acceptance of Sahajanand Swami aka Swaminarayan as God in the sect.<ref name="Narayan1992">{{Cite book|last=Narayan|first=Kirin|title=Storytellers, saints and scoundrels : folk narrative in Hindu religious teaching|publisher=Motilal Banarsidass|year=1992|isbn=8120808908|location=New Delhi|pages=141–143|oclc=320229511}}</ref> In the view of Dayananda, it was a historical fact that Sahajanand decked himself out as Narayan to gain disciples. He was disapproving towards the idea that visions of Swaminarayan could establish a path to attaining perfection. Accused of deviating from the [[Veda|Vedas]], his followers were criticised by Dayanand for the illegal collection of wealth and the "practice of frauds and tricks."<ref>{{Cite book|last=Narayan, Kirin.|title=Storytellers, saints and scoundrels : folk narrative in Hindu religious teaching|date=1992|publisher=Motilal Banarsidass|isbn=8120808908|location=New Delhi|pages=143|oclc=320229511}}</ref>

Swaminarayan was criticized for receiving large gifts from his followers after renouncing the world and assuming leadership of the fellowship.{{sfn|Williams|2001|p=81}} Swaminarayan responded that he accepts gifts because "it was appropriate for the person to give" and to satisfy the devotion of his followers but he did not seek it out of personal desire.{{sfn|Williams|2001|p=19}}

promotion of [[ahimsa]] (non-violence).<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Rudert |first=Angela |date=2004-05-11 |title=Inherent Faith and Negotiated Power: Swaminarayan Women in the United States |url=https://ecommons.cornell.edu/handle/1813/106 |publisher=Cornell University |language=en}}</ref>

An 1823 memorandum from a British official in the ''Asiatic Journal'' notes that the native upper classes “regret (as Hindus) the levelling nature of [Swaminarayan's] system” resulting in their violent opposition to and frequent merciless beatings of Swaminarayan’s disciples.{{sfn|Mangalnidhidas|2016|p=122}} <ref>{{Cite journal|last=N.A.|year=1823|title=Indian Sect: Memorandum Respecting a Sect Lately Introduced by a Person Calling Himself Swamee Narain|url=|journal=The Asiatic Journal and Monthly Register for British India and Its Dependencies|publisher=Kinsbury, Parbury and Allen|volume=XV|pages=348–349|via=}}</ref> Swaminarayan’s doctrine that everyone’s true self is the pure atma within which God resides, led him to reject caste-based discrimination and welcome those of all caste backgrounds equally in his religious community.{{sfn|Mangalnidhidas|2016}}{{sfn|Parikh|2016|p=105}} According to Sadhu Mangalnidhidas and Vibhuti Parikh,, Swaminarayan rejected caste prejudices but practically accommodated 19th-century social norms and caste language in his public writings. The aim and strategy was to protect and reform the community, though it may have had "unintended negative consequences such as the reinforcement of caste identities".{{sfn|Mangalnidhidas|2016|p=122–123}}{{sfn|Parikh|2016|p=106–107}}

Numerous historical accounts show that in practice Swaminarayan himself and his followers shared food and openly interacted with everyone without discrimination.{{sfn|Mangalnidhidas|2016|p=122–124}} When asked for clarity on his views on caste by Anglican Bishop [[Reginald Heber]], Swaminarayan explained that since he considered the distinctions of caste to be ultimately false, “he did not give the subject much importance, but that he wished not to give offence,” and thus gestured towards some minor accommodations to the practice in his public writings.{{sfn|Mangalnidhidas|2016|p=124–126}} <ref>{{Cite book|last=Heber|first=Reginald|title=Narrative of a Journey through the Upper Provinces of India, from Calcutta to Bombay, 1824-1825, with Notes upon Ceylon, an Account of a Journey to Madras and the Southern Provinces, 1826, and Letters Written in India.|publisher=John Murray, Albemarle Street.|year=1828|isbn=|location=London|pages=41}}</ref>

== Swaminarayan and Caste ==
Some scholars have cited excerpts from Swaminarayan sect literature, such as the [[Shikshapatri]], to criticize Swaminarayan as supporting caste discrimination.{{sfn|Parikh|2016|p=106}} Other scholars and the followers of the Swaminarayan sect dispute these criticisms, stating such criticism to be unsupported by the history and context of those statements.{{sfn|Mangalnidhidas|2016|p=122–126}}{{sfn|Parikh|2016|p=105–107}}{{sfn|Williams|2001|p=169–173}} They argue that overall, Swaminarayan’s followers, practices and teachings helped reduce the oppressive nature of caste-based customs prevalent in that era and drew individuals of lower strata towards the Swaminarayan sect.

{{sfn|Mangalnidhidas|2016}}{{sfn|Parikh|2016|p=117}}{{sfn|Williams|2001|p=169–173}}

According to David Hardiman, the sect has had a class and caste bias and is an "ideological voice of commercial farmers and capitalist entrepreneurs" of Hinduism.<ref name="hardiman1">{{Cite journal|last=Hardiman|first=David|year=1988|title=Class Base of Swaminarayan Sect|jstor=4379024|journal=Economic and Political Weekly|volume=23|issue=37|pages=1907–1912|issn=0012-9976}}</ref> The lower classes are attracted to it because they aspire the same success and mercantile ideology. It grew, states Hardiman, in an era of British colonial rule where land taxes were raised to unprecedented heights, lands were "snatched from village communities", and poverty spread.<ref name="hardiman1" /> Sahajanand's pacifist approach to community re-organization and reaching out to the lowest classes of his day found support with the British rulers, but it also furthered their exploitation by the British, the local moneylenders and richer farmers. The followers of Swaminarayan "swallow the sect's view of the world uncritically", states Hardiman,<ref name="hardiman1" /> and accept ''Shikshapatri'' teachings such as:{{sfn|Mangalnidhidas|2016}}<blockquote>"None shall receive food and water, which are unacceptable at the hands of some people under scruples of caste system, may the same happen to the sanctified portions of the Shri Krishna, except at Jagannath Puri."<ref>{{Cite journal|url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1163/1234-5678_beh_com_9000000232|title=Bochasanwasi Shri Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha|website=Brill’s Encyclopedia of Hinduism, Volume 5|doi=10.1163/1234-5678_beh_com_9000000232|access-date=2019-09-20|url-access=subscription}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|last1=Williams|first1=Raymond Brady|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=rs5JDwAAQBAJ&pg=PT99|title=Swaminarayan Hinduism: Tradition, Adaptation, and Identity|last2=Trivedi|first2=Yogi|publisher=Oxford University Press|year=2016|isbn=9780199089598|location=|pages=143|language=en}}</ref></blockquote>This excerpt has been interpreted as an endorsement of class and caste discrimination by the Swaminarayan sect. Vibhuti Parikh disagrees and states Swaminarayan used these instructions, possibly to gradually undermine the caste system without "negating it outright".{{sfn|Parikh|2016|p=107}} According to Sadhu Mangalnidhidas, the historical facts suggest Swaminarayan did not encourage discrimination and did the opposite. For evidence, he states that in the early years of the Swaminarayan Sampradaya, high-caste Hindus criticized Swaminarayan for his teachings, inclusiveness, and practices that undermined caste-based discrimination.{{sfn|Mangalnidhidas|2016}} According to Kishorelal Mashruwala, “Swaminarayan was the first to bring about religious advancement of Shudras in Gujarat and Kathiawad region…And that became the main reason for many to oppose the Sampraday.”{{sfn|Mangalnidhidas|2016|p=122}}<ref>{{Cite book|last=Mashruwala|first=Kishorelal|title=Sahajanand Swami and the Swaminarayan Sampradaya|publisher=Navjivan Publishing House|year=1940|isbn=|edition=2nd|location=Ahmedabad|pages=63–64}}</ref> 

== Criticism by Mahatma Gandhi ==
In 1918, [[Mahatma Gandhi]] issued two public appeals for Indians to enlist in the British army to fight in [[World War I]]. He asserted that fighting in the war would provide Indians necessary self-defense skills that had been eroded by the deep-seated influence of India’s ascetic culture, which he disdained.<ref name=":2">{{Cite book|title=The Cambridge Companion to Gandhi|last=Parel|first=Anthony|publisher=Cambridge University Press|year=2011|isbn=978-0-521-11670-1|editor=Judith Brown and Anthony Parel|location=New York|pages=154–170|chapter=Gandhi and the State}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|title=The Cambridge Companion to Gandhi|last=Hardiman|first=David|publisher=Cambridge University Press|year=2011|isbn=978-0-521-11670-1|editor=Judith Brown and Anthony Parel|location=New York|pages=239–254|chapter=Gandhi's Global Legacy}}</ref>

This advocacy of violence led some of his staunchest supporters, including his nephew, Maganlal Gandhi, to question whether Gandhi was forsaking his non-violent ideals.<ref name=":2" /><ref name=":3">{{Cite book|title=The Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi|last=Gandhi|first=Mohandas|publisher=The Publications Division, Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, Government of India.|year=1965|isbn=|volume=14|location=Ahmedabad|pages=504–505}}</ref> In a July 1918 letter replying to his nephew, Gandhi stated that any conception of non-violence that prohibited self-defense was erroneous. To support this argument, Gandhi criticized the ethics of love and absolute ahimsa (non-violence) he observed in the teachings of Swaminarayan and Vallabhacharya. According to Gandhi, this love was mere “sentimentalism,” and its concomitant absolute ahimsa “robbed us of our manliness” and “made the people incapable of self-defence.” Gandhi wrote that Swaminarayan and Vallabhacharya had not grasped the essence of non-violence. Instead Gandhi argued for a non-violence that would “permit [our offspring] to commit violence, to use their strength to fight,” since that capacity for violence could be used for the benefit of society, like in “restraining a drunkard from doing evil” or “killing a dog…infected with rabies.”<ref name=":3" />

By 1924, however, Gandhi’s views on Swaminarayan and his ethical teachings changed to some degree. While arguing in a Navjivan newspaper editorial that it was a duty to resort to violence for self-defense against Afghani terrorists, Gandhi admitted that he could not personally adopt this approach because he had chosen the path of love even against his enemies. Gandhi explained that, according to the Hindu scriptures, a single such self-controlled person could eradicate violence from the hearts of one’s opposition. It was through this power of love that Gandhi asserted, “what was accomplished in Gujarat by one person, Sahajanand [Swaminarayan], could not be accomplished by the power of the State.” Moreover, he said that “The Age of Sahajanand has not come to an end. It is only devotion and self-control like his that are wanted.” Ultimately, Gandhi said that while he was attempting Swaminarayan’s approach himself, he did “not have the strength of heart to act upon” it the way that Swaminarayan had successfully done.<ref>{{Cite book|title=The Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi|last=Gandhi|first=Mohandas|publisher=The Publications Division, Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, Government of India.|year=1965|isbn=|volume=23|location=Ahmedabad|pages=468–469}}</ref>

It premiered on [[YouTube]] and the Path of Wonders streaming platform in October 2026.

== Premise ==
Unlike traditional sequential adaptations of the ''Ramayana'', ''Path of Dharma'' introduces a unique framing narrative. The series begins in a modern-day setting where a young boy named Bodhi discovers an ancient book. As he reads, he is magically drawn across time into the legendary [[Treta Yuga]]. Through his perspective, the epic journey of Maryada Purushottam Shri [[Rama]] unfolds. The series covers major events of the epic, starting from the Putrakameshti Yagya and Rama's divine birth in [[Ayodhya]], the [[Svayamvara|Swayamvara]] of [[Sita]], and the encounter with [[Parashurama]], leading up to the tragic fulfillment of Queen [[Kaikeyi]]'s boons and the ensuing fourteen-year exile into the Dandaka Forest.

== Voice cast and characters ==
The series features a prominent ensemble of Indian voice actors for its primary Hindi dub:
* '''[[Sanket Mhatre]]''' as Lord [[Rama]], the prince of Ayodhya who embodies righteousness and dharma.
* '''[[Sonal Kaushal]]''' as Goddess [[Sita]], Rama's devoted wife.
* '''[[Rajesh Kava]]''' as [[Lakshmana]], Rama's fiercely loyal younger brother.<ref name="ai" />
* '''Dinu Sharma''' as Bodhi, a modern boy through whose eyes the story is experienced.
* '''Pooja Kava''' as Zara.
* '''Sumanto Ray''' as King [[Dasharatha]], the ruler of Ayodhya and father of Rama.
* '''Mukesh Kava''' as Sage [[Vashistha]], the royal priest and guru of the princes.
* '''Amit Dhamija''' as the Narrator.<ref name="ep1" />

== Production ==
=== Development and animation ===
The conceptualization for ''Ramayana: Path of Dharma'' was driven by Ruud Huisman,<ref name="ai" /><ref name="ep1" /> a creator from the [[Netherlands|Netherland]]s who sought to explore India's greatest epic through an ambitious digital format. Development focused on bridging generational and cultural gaps by utilizing a modern storytelling approach.

The animation was executed using [[AI]] by Nexxus Studios. The visual direction departs from the standard 3D CGI typically seen in modern Indian animated series, opting instead for a painterly, hand-drawn 2D aesthetic highly influenced by Japanese anime and Studio Ghibli. The production also utilized AI-assisted visualization tools combined with traditional animation techniques to craft the detailed backgrounds of Ayodhya and the natural landscapes of ancient India.<ref name="ep1" />

=== Music ===
The series' music, background score, and vocal arrangements were entirely directed and composed by Subrata Poddar.<ref name="ai" /> The soundtrack integrates classical Indian instruments with cinematic orchestral swells. The official theme song of the series, "Satyam Sanatanam," was released alongside the initial trailers.<ref>{{cite web |title=SATYAM SANATANAM RAMAYANA: PATH OF DHARMA Official Theme Song Hindi |url=https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Xvk4I5QQCaI&pp=iggCQAE%3D |website=YouTube |publisher=Path of Wonders |access-date=9 November 2026 |date=29 October 2026}}</ref>

== Release ==
''Ramayana: Path of Dharma'' launched its promotional campaign in late September 2026 with official Hindi and [[English language|English]] trailers that garnered significant viral attention. The trailer was noted for its striking anime visuals and strong voice cast.<ref name="flix" /><ref name="aajtak" />
[[File:Ramayana Trailer.jpg|thumb|The trailer of the movie aired on YouTube]]
The first episode, officially premiered on YouTube and the Path of Wonders streaming website on October 26, 2026, strategically timed to coincide with the [[Diwali]] festival season. There will be 9 episodes in season 1. All other episodes would be paid and available via the official website on subscription basis.<ref name="wonders">{{cite web |title=Path of Wonders |url=https://www.pathofwonders.com/ |website=www.pathofwonders.com |access-date=9 November 2026 |language=en}}</ref>

== Reception ==
Upon the release of its trailer and debut episode, ''Ramayana: Path of Dharma'' received positive reactions from pop-culture commentators and audiences. Reviewers highlighted the high production value, the quality of the Hindi dubbing, and the innovative approach of beginning the story through a child's dream sequence. The Ghibli-esque art style and emotional depth of the background score were frequently cited as standout elements, with many appreciating the independent studio's effort to provide a fresh, high-quality animated take on the revered epic.<ref name="ai" />

'''Rajesh Arora''' ({{Langx|hi|राजेश अरोड़ा}}) was a fictional character portrayed by [[Indian]] comedian and actor [[Kapil Sharma (comedian)|Kapil Sharma]] on the [[Hindi]]-language sketch comedy and talk show, ''[[The Kapil Sharma Show]]''. Introduced during the first season of the show in 2016, the character became a popular addition to the series and serves as one of Sharma's notable comedic alter egos.<ref name="quint">{{cite web |title=Kapil Brings Back Rajesh Arora on ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’ |url=https://www.thequint.com/entertainment/tv/rajesh-arora-back-on-the-kapil-sharma-show |website=TheQuint |access-date=10 November 2026 |language=en |date=16 January 2019}}</ref><ref name="amar" /><ref name="it">{{cite web |title=The Kapil Sharma Show: Rajesh Arora makes a comeback.

== Character background and traits ==
Rajesh Arora is depicted as a middle-aged, highly opinionated man, exhibiting the traits of a boastful [[North Indian]] uncle.<ref name="it" /> He is characterized by his cynical demeanor, tendency to offer unsolicited advice, and habit of finding faults in others. The character speaks with a distinct Delhi-[[Punjabis|Punjabi]] accent and a slightly hoarse, nasal voice.

Visually, [[Arora]] is distinguished by his peculiar fashion sense. He typically appears on stage wearing brightly colored, retro-style shirts paired with a sweater vest or a sleeveless jacket. He wears tinted sunglasses and sports a wig featuring a noticeable receding hairline, adding to his middle-aged persona.<ref name="it" /><ref name="quint" /><ref name="ie">{{cite web |title=The Kapil Sharma Show: Kapil brings back his character Rajesh Arora |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/television/the-kapil-sharma-show-rajesh-arora-new-trailer-5541263/ |website=The Indian Express |access-date=10 November 2026 |language=en |date=16 January 2019}}</ref>

Arora is known for his signature catchphrase, "''Mereko tumhari yeh baat bilkul pasand nahi aayi''" (I did not like this thing about you at all), which he uses frequently to express his disapproval or annoyance at the actions and statements of other characters.<ref name="quint" /><ref name="rvcj" /> Another recurring gag involves him narrating fabricated stories from his childhood or past, often exaggerating his own achievements or highlighting the absurdity of a situation.

== Role in ''The Kapil Sharma Show'' ==
Unlike Sharma's primary role as the eponymous host of the show, the character of Rajesh Arora allows him to participate directly in sketch comedy segments. Whenever Arora enters the stage, he typically disrupts the ongoing conversation to shift the focus to his humorous grievances.<ref name="bolly" />

Arora's interactions with other recurring characters form a significant part of his sketches:
* '''Dr. Mashoor Gulati and Chandu:''' Arora frequently targets Dr. Mashoor Gulati (played by [[Sunil Grover]])<ref name="bolly">{{cite web |title=Bittu Sharma and Mashoor Gulati’s famous moments on The Kapil Sharma Show |url=https://bollyspice.com/bittu-sharma-and-mashoor-gulatis-famous-moments-on-the-kapil-sharma-show/ |website=BollySpice.com - The latest movies, interviews in Bollywood |access-date=10 November 2026 |date=30 March 2017}}</ref> and Chandu the tea seller (played by [[Chandan Prabhakar]]) with his insults. He mocks Gulati's questionable medical credentials and Chandu's financial status and physical appearance. He similarly mocks other characters like Rinku Bhabhi played by Grover.<ref name="toi">{{cite web |title=The Kapil Sharma Show, Episode update 19th February 2017: Rinku Bhabhi and Rajesh Arora leave you in splits |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tv/news/hindi/the-kapil-sharma-show-episode-update-19th-february-2017-rinku-bhabhi-and-rajesh-arora-leave-you-in-splits/articleshow/57248114.cms |website=The Times of India |access-date=10 November 2026 |date=20 February 2017}}</ref>
* '''Female Guests:''' Despite his continuous complaints about his own wife, Arora often playfully flirts with female celebrity guests who appear on the show. His attempts at wooing them are usually met with comedic rejection.<ref name="rvcj">{{cite web |title=Hilarious Rajesh Arora Jokes That Will Bring A Smile On Your Face! - RVCJ Media |url=https://www.rvcj.com/hilarious-rajesh-arora-jokes-will-bring-smile-face/ |website=RVCJ |access-date=10 November 2026 |date=1 November 2016}}</ref>
* '''Bachcha Yadav:''' In later seasons, his banter extended to characters like Bachcha Yadav (played by [[Kiku Sharda]]), where the two engage in a battle of wits and insults.<ref name="bachha">{{cite web |title=The Kapil Sharma Show: Kapil Sharma returns as Rajesh Arora; watch his fun banter with Bacha Yadav |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tv/news/hindi/the-kapil-sharma-show-kapil-sharma-returns-as-rajesh-arora-watch-his-fun-banter-with-bacha-yadav/articleshow/67553300.cms |website=The Times of India |access-date=10 November 2026 |date=16 January 2019}}</ref>

== Reception ==
The character of Rajesh Arora was well received by audiences and television critics. Sharma's portrayal was noted for its specific voice modulation and body language, which differentiated Arora from Sharma's regular hosting persona. The character's catchphrase, "''Mereko tumhari yeh baat bilkul pasand nahi aayi''," gained traction on social media and became a subject for internet memes.<ref name="it" />

''“When I first played the character of Rajesh Arora, I never realised he will be so well accepted. We did a few episodes and then somehow he never came back, till suddenly I realised every guest who would come on the show would ask about him and also there were fans on social media demanding his comeback”'', said Kapil.<ref name="ht" /><ref name="darpan">{{cite web |title=The Kapil Sharma Show: Kapil To Bring Back Rajesh Arora’s Character |url=https://www.darpanmagazine.com/entertainment/bollywood/the-kapil-sharma-show-kapil-to-bring-back-rajesh-aroras-character/ |access-date=10 November 2026 |date=18 February 2017}}</ref>

Following the conclusion of the first season, viewer demand prompted the creators to bring Rajesh Arora back for the second season of ''The Kapil Sharma Show'' in 2019.<ref>{{cite web |title=कप‍िल शर्मा के शो पर हुई राजेश अरोड़ा की वापसी, वायरल हुआ वीड‍ियो |url=https://www.aajtak.in/entertainment/television/story/the-kapil-sharma-show-rajesh-arora-makes-a-comeback-tmov-638145-2019-01-16 |website=AajTak |access-date=10 November 2026 |language=hi |date=16 January 2019 |trans-title=Rajesh Arora returns to The Kapil Sharma Show; video goes viral}}</ref><ref name="ndtv">{{cite web |last1=Singh |first1=Nandan |title=कपिल शर्मा के शो पर 'Rajesh Arora' की धमाकेदार वापसी, दर्शक हो गए लोट-पोट, देखें Video |url=https://ndtv.in/television/kapil-sharma-rajesh-arora-comeback-video-viral-on-social-media-1978460 |website=NDTV India |access-date=10 November 2026 |language=hi |date=15 January 2019 |trans-title='Rajesh Arora' makes a spectacular return to Kapil Sharma's show, leaving the audience in splits—watch the video.}}</ref><ref name="it" /><ref name="amar">{{cite web |title=Video: 'द कपिल शर्मा शो' में मिलेगा कॉमेडी का डबल डोज, लौट रहा है ये बड़ा किरदार |url=https://www.amarujala.com/photo-gallery/entertainment/television/kapil-sharma-is-returning-with-his-old-character-rajesh-arora-in-the-kapil-sharma-show |website=Amar Ujala |access-date=10 November 2026 |language=hi |date=17 January 2019 |trans-title=Get a double dose of comedy on 'The Kapil Sharma Show'—a major character is making a return!}}</ref>

== "Contributions" linkage to the top header ==

[[File:Prop1.jpg|thumb|right|400px|Screenshot showing the current top header. The red box highlights where the new "Contributions" link should be added, next to the "Discuss" button.]]

Hello everyone, I would like to propose a small but highly impactful interface enhancement for Bharatpedia.
=== Current Situation ===
As shown in the screenshot above, the top header currently displays links for "Discuss," donation, appearance, and language. However, there is no quick access to view a user's contributions directly from the header. Users currently have to navigate through their personal user menu to find this link, which adds unnecessary steps to common task.
=== Proposed Change ===
I propose adding a dynamic "Contributions" icon directly in the top header bar, positioned next to the "Discuss" icon.

To match standard MediaWiki behavior and improve editor workflow, this link should be 'context-aware':

<ul>
<li>'''On regular pages (Articles, Main Page, etc.):''' The link should point to <code>Special:MyContributions</code> (showing the current user's own edit history).</li>
<li>'''On another user's User page or User talk page (Namespace 2 or 3):''' The link should dynamically extract the username from the page title and point to <code>Special:Contributions/[Username]</code> (showing that specific user's edit history).</li>
</ul>

Please let me know if anyone require any further details or explanation. Feel free to ask. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 16:27, 28 September 2026 (IST)

:I support this proposal. Adding a Contributions link to the top header would make it easier for editors to access their own or other users' edit histories without navigating through additional menus. This would be a useful improvement to the editing experience on Bharatpedia. [[User:Editorial Oversight|Editorial Oversight]][[User talk:Editorial Oversight|(Talk with me)]] 16:43, 28 September 2026 (IST)

:I support this proposal. Adding a Contributions icon to the header would make accessing edit histories much more convenient, especially for editors who frequently review their own or other users' contributions. I particularly like the context-aware behavior on User and User talk pages. One small consideration would be to ensure that user subpages are also handled correctly, so pages such as <code><nowiki>User:Example/Test</nowiki></code> still link to <code><nowiki>Special:Contributions/Example</nowiki></code>. Otherwise, this seems like a useful and practical interface improvement. [[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] ([[User talk:WikiDwarf|talk]]) 00:21, 29 September 2026 (IST)
::Thank you for the suggestion [[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]]. Yes, user subpages should definitely be handled as well. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 12:00, 29 September 2026 (IST)
:I agree with the above. In my opinion, there should also be a "Create account" button for logged-out users, because many users may not be aware that they can create an account to edit. The option is not clearly visible upfront so if there is enough space it worth adding extra button. [[User:Ajay Kumar|Ajay Kumar]] ([[User talk:Ajay Kumar|talk]]) 20:48, 29 September 2026 (IST)

=== Comments ===
* Hello {{ping|Bharatwiki_Socrates|Editorial Oversight|Ajay Kumar}} The proposal was sent to the tech team, and the first header changes are now on the site. Logged-out user see an info note, Create account, Log in, Donate, and a More menu. Logged-in editors see their username, a contributions link, and a user menu with their page, and other useful links. More also holds search, which lists matches as you type, plus Explore and common links. Language, dark mode, and font size are in that menu instead of sitting as separate buttons. The Discuss button has been removed from the top bar and will be added somewhere else. Please add your comment if you have any suggestion to improve it further. Thank you. [[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] ([[User talk:WikiDwarf|talk]]) 14:20, 2 October 2026 (IST)
*:I have a different suggestion. I believe Bharatpedia needs more editors who actively contribute to the platform. This can only happen if more people become aware of Bharatpedia, as currently, very few people know about it, and many of its editors appear to have come from Wikipedia.
*:I suggest that Bharatpedia organise occasional campaigns, events, and meetups to attract new contributors. Existing editors should also receive recognition for their contributions. Sharing event photographs, group pictures, and editor achievements on social media could help increase awareness and encourage more people to join the community.
*:Recognising good-faith contributors and organising community events can help build a stronger editing community. These initiatives could encourage new editors to join Bharatpedia and motivate existing editors to remain active.

*:@[[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]], I think the user-page contribution icon still needs an update. When viewing another editor's user page, the '''Contributions''' icon currently links to my own contributions. Instead, it should link to the contributions of the editor whose user page I'm viewing.
*:So, if I open <code>User:Example</code>, clicking the Contributions icon should open <code>Special:Contributions/Example</code>, not my own contribution list. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 20:53, 2 October 2026 (IST)

*:Wikipedia handles it by adding contributions page in user signatures by default along with user page and talk page. It comes quite handy.

== Add Frequently visited pages ==

Can you add an easy button for frequently visited pages? It should also incorporate the ability to bookmark certain pages for quick access. @[[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] [[User:Dokania|Dokania]] ([[User talk:Dokania|talk]]) 17:35, 28 September 2026 (IST)

== AI edit summary ==

GitHub uses AI for edit summary and other such petty tasks. It's very helpful. Can Bharatpedia utilise it too? I think one way to overshadow wikipedia is to utilise AI wisely as they are very conservative and hostile towards AI use. @[[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] @[[User:Bharatwiki Socrates|Bharatwiki Socrates]] [[User:Dokania|Dokania]] ([[User talk:Dokania|talk]]) 17:37, 28 September 2026 (IST)

:I am writing [[Bharatpedia:AI]] and will mention a few editors for policy guideline improvements, including you. I strongly believe that people must adapt to the evolving times. If anyone uses AI for correcting minor grammatical or punctuation errors, grouping, and fixing reference syntax issues, there is no problem. However, the full responsibility falls on the user. If a user introduces any false information, possible sanctions will apply to them. Therefore, AI must be used responsibly. Users are not permitted to claim that an error is due to AI; they must take full responsibility.

== Archive and bare url tags in twinkle ==

There is a tag in Twinkle called {{:Cleanup bare URLs}}. I think articles carrying this tag should be moved automatically to a category or a special page so that they can be fixed more easily.

We should also introduce a new tag called {{unarchived}} in twinkle to be placed on articles that do not have their links archived. When this tag is added, it should be processed automatically by [[User:BharatwikiArchiveBot|BP:Bharatwikiarchive bot]]. [[User:Dokania|Dokania😎]][[User talk:Dokania|(📩)]] 13:12, 26 October 2026 (IST)
===Twinkle on Mobile Version===
@[[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] @[[User:Bharatwiki Socrates|Bharatwiki Socrates]] I think we should consider working on implementing '''Mobile Twinkle on Bharatpedia''', as it would be very useful for editors who primarily contribute using mobile devices. I travel frequently and cannot carry my laptop everywhere. Because of this, I have been inactive on Bharatpedia for the past few days due to my laptop-related limitations. Having Mobile Twinkle would make it much easier for editors like me to contribute while travelling, perform administrative and maintenance tasks, and remain active in the community without depending on a laptop. I would like to request the administrators to consider this initiative. I believe it could improve the mobile editing experience and encourage more consistent participation from mobile editors.

::::::@[[User:Editorial Oversight|Editorial Oversight]], You are most welcome to help, and no, you do not need to be an administrator for this. Any editor can develop and test a script in their own userspace (for example, a test page under User:Editorial Oversight/) and load it from their personal js page, so creating and testing scripts is open to everyone. Administrator or interface-admin rights are only needed at the last step, when a finished script is installed site-wide as a gadget for all users. Twinkle is nothing but a set of JavaScript modules loaded through a gadget, and the mobile problem is mostly about where its menu and dialogs appear in the mobile view. A good way to start is to note down exactly what does not appear or does not work when you use Twinkle on mobile, then try fixing it step by step in a test copy. I am happy to help with testing and with the JavaScript and gadget side where I can. Regards.

I'll start by checking which Twinkle features are not working properly in the mobile view and document the issues. I'll also try creating a test copy on my personal JS page. Your guidance with JavaScript and gadget development would be really helpful. I'd be happy to learn and contribute to improving Mobile Twinkle on Bharatpedia.

*'''Update''' : Twinkle now works in the mobile view, for everyone.

'''What was wrong'''
# The Twinkle, morebits and select2 gadgets had no "targets" in [[MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition]], so they never loaded on the mobile site at all.
# Twinkle places its links in the "p-cactions" portlet. Desktop skins render that portlet, but the mobile skin (Minerva) does not render it anywhere, so even a loaded Twinkle had nowhere to show its links on mobile.

'''What has been changed'''
# [[MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition]]: Twinkle, morebits, select2 and Twinkle-pagestyles now have <code>targets=desktop,mobile</code>.
# New adapter [[MediaWiki:Gadget-TwinkleMobile.js]], loaded as the first file of the Twinkle gadget. On the Minerva skin only, it creates the missing portlet as an on-screen panel, adds a "Twinkle" entry to the page actions (More) menu, adds a floating "TW" button on pages that have no such menu, and sizes Twinkle dialogs to fit phone screens. Other skins are not touched.

'''How it looks now'''
<gallery>
File:Twinkle on mobile - More menu (Bharatpedia).jpg|The "Twinkle" entry in the page actions (More) menu
File:Twinkle on mobile - options panel (Bharatpedia).jpg|Tapping "Twinkle" opens the options panel on screen
File:Twinkle on mobile - TW button (Bharatpedia).jpg|On protected pages without the actions menu, a floating "TW" button opens the panel
</gallery>

'''How to switch it on'''
# Enable the Twinkle gadget, the same as on desktop: Preferences, Gadgets section, "Twinkle" (available to autoconfirmed users).
# Open any page in the mobile view. On a phone you already get the mobile view (Minerva skin) automatically. On desktop you can test it through the "Mobile view" link at the bottom of a page, or by choosing the Minerva skin in Preferences, Appearance.
# On an article, the panel shows Last, Tag, CSD, PP, Unlink and XFD. User pages, talk pages and diffs show their usual extra options (Warn, ARV, rollback and so on), just like on desktop.

Please try it on your phones and report any problem here. [[User:Bharatwiki_Socrates|🍁Bharatwiki Socrates🍁]][[User talk:Bharatwiki_Socrates|(📩)]] 05:54, 1 November 2026 (IST)
:+'''Manual always-on option''': If the Twinkle gadget ever switches itself off in your preferences, you can also load Twinkle from your personal JavaScript page. Open [[Special:MyPage/common.js]], add this line at the end (do not remove anything already on that page), and save:
:<code>mw.loader.load( 'ext.gadget.Twinkle' );</code>
:Twinkle will then load from your personal common.js on every skin, including the mobile view, even if the gadget checkbox is off.

== Feature Request: Enhanced “All Pages” Section with Advanced Filters ==

====Summary====
Introduce a comprehensive **All Pages** section that allows users to browse, sort, and filter the entire collection of articles using multiple useful criteria. This would turn a basic page list into a powerful discovery and quality-control tool.

====Proposed Functionality====
Create a dedicated “All Pages” interface that displays every article on Bharatpedia and supports rich filtering and sorting options. Suggested filters include (but are not limited to):

* Page size (word count or byte size)
* Number of bare URLs
* Number of references / citations
* Other useful metrics such as number of interwiki links, last edit date, page protection status, number of categories, presence of infoboxes, etc.

Users should be able to combine these filters, sort results by any of the criteria, and quickly locate articles that meet specific quality or structural conditions.

====Rationale====
A feature-rich All Pages section would make it significantly easier to:

* Discover articles that need improvement (e.g., pages with many bare URLs or very few references)
* Identify high-quality or well-referenced content
* Perform bulk quality assessment and maintenance
* Find articles based on structural characteristics rather than only by title or category

Overall, this would greatly increase the usefulness of the site for both readers and editors by enabling more precise sorting, filtering, and discovery of content. [[User:Dokania|Dokania😎]][[User talk:Dokania|(📩)]] 17:31, 6 November 2026 (IST)

== Autopatrolled granted ==

[[File:Bharatpedia Autopatrolled.png|right|120px]]
Hi Editorial Oversight, I just wanted to let you know that I have [https://en.bharatpedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&page=User%3AEditorial_Oversight added] the [[Bharatpedia:Autopatrolled|autopatrolled user right]] to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the [[Special:NewPagesFeed|new pages feed]]. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been [[Bharatpedia:Requests for permissions/Autopatrolled|requested]] on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of [[Bharatpedia:New pages patrol|new page patrollers]].

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Bharatpedia's [[Bharatpedia:Core content policies|core content policies]], you might also consider volunteering to become a [[Bharatpedia:New pages patrol|new page patroller]] yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! [[User:WikiDwarf|WikiDwarf]] ([[User talk:WikiDwarf|talk]]) 00:01, 27 September 2026 (IST)

== Rollback granted ==

[[File:Bharatpedia Rollbacker.png|right|130px]]
Hi Editorial Oversight, I've reviewed your request and temporarily [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=rights&page=User:Editorial_Oversight}} granted] you the ability to rollback edits on your account until 27 December 2026. You can now use the "Rollback" button to quickly revert clear cases of vandalism. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:

* Rollback doesn't give you special status on Bharatpedia; it's just a tool.
* Only use rollback for clear and obvious vandalism, not for well-intentioned edits.
* Avoid using rollback in edit wars or content disputes; misuse may result in revocation of the privilege.
* When in doubt, ask for guidance.

If you no longer want rollback, let me know. For more information on how to use rollback, check [[Bharatpedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback]]. Feel free to reach out on my [[User talk:Bharatwiki Socrates|talk page]] if you need help or have questions. Thanks for helping combat vandalism. Happy editing!

:One more thing: work on another Bharatpedia, for example Hindi Bharatpedia, for at least 3 to 6 months and build a clean record of contributions there. After that, file a fresh unblock request here. Your work there will be looked at, and your chances of being unblocked will be much better.

:::::The only appropriate remedy in this case would be to impose a topic ban on you from Indian politics-related articles, with the possibility of seeking an unblock from the topic ban at a later stage. Do you accept this remedy? You may subsequently request an exemption from the topic ban once you believe you have demonstrated that you can contribute constructively in other area without violating the restriction.

:Done. You are now unblocked. As agreed, this unblock is conditional on a topic ban from Indian politics-related articles, broadly construed, covering articles and discussions on that topic. You are free to edit other topics, including the Kerala history, culture, personalities, traditions and heritage areas you mentioned. If the ban is breached, the block may be reimposed without further warning. You may appeal the ban later, after a record of constructive editing in other areas.

To get some practice editing you can [[Draft:Sandbox|use a sandbox]]. You can [//en.bharatpedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Mypage/sandbox&action=edit&preload=Template:User_Sandbox/preload 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 <code>{{T|My sandbox}}</code> on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click [[Special:MyPage|here]] to start it.

Please remember to:
*Always [[Bharatpedia:Signatures|sign your posts]] on talk pages. You can do this either by typing four [[tilde]]s <code>~~~~</code> at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-personal|signature]], a link to your talk page, and a [[Help:Timestamp|timestamp]].
*Leave descriptive [[Help:Edit summary|edit summaries]] for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them. 
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to [[Bharatpedia:Department of Fun|have some fun!]]</div>

To get some practice editing you can [[Draft:Sandbox|use a sandbox]]. You can [//en.bharatpedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Mypage/sandbox&action=edit&preload=Template:User_Sandbox/preload 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 <code>{{T|My sandbox}}</code> on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click [[Special:MyPage|here]] to start it.

Please remember to:
*Always [[Bharatpedia:Signatures|sign your posts]] on talk pages. You can do this either by typing four [[tilde]]s <code>~~~~</code> at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-personal|signature]], a link to your talk page, and a [[Help:Timestamp|timestamp]].
*Leave descriptive [[Help:Edit summary|edit summaries]] for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them. 
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to [[Bharatpedia:Department of Fun|have some fun!]]</div>
