Welcome to Wikipedia, Macarius Ibne Mito! I'm Mujinga, and I've been assigned as your mentor. About half of new Wikipedia accounts receive a mentor chosen randomly from a list of volunteers. It just means I'm here to help with anything you need! We need to have all kinds of people working together to create an online encyclopedia, so I'm glad you're here. Over time, you will figure out what you enjoy doing the most on Wikipedia.
You might have noticed that you have access to a tutorial and suggested edits. It's recommended that you take advantage of this, as it'll make learning how to edit Wikipedia easier.
If you need assistance with anything or have any questions, click on the "Get editing help" button on the bottom right corner of your screen. This will open up a module with links to help pages and a place to ask me questions. You can also ask me questions directly on my talk page, or go here to get help from the wider community.
Again, welcome to Wikipedia! Mujinga (talk) 12:03, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

[edit] Hi Macarius Ibne Mito! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Attacks on schools during the Israeli invasion of Gaza that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Thank you. Speederzzz (Talk) (Stalk me) 09:53, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Speederzzz Sorry, I will change the edit summary next time if i edit. Macarius Ibne Mito (talk) 10:34, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
Introduction to contentious topics
[edit]You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Only cite reliable sources
[edit] Thank you for your interest in contributing to the article Bangladesh genocide. However, please do not cite sources such as modern day newspaper editorials, opinion pieces, or commentary for matters of historical fact. Such a source is reliable only for documenting the opinion of the writer (such as a reviewer's feeling about a film).
Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources (history) describes the best sort of sources to use in articles about history, generally scholarly works written by historians or academics in allied fields. Other sources may express views that are widely acknowledged as pushing a particular point-of-view, sometimes even extremist, being promotional in nature, or relying heavily on biased narratives and personal opinions.
If you require further assistance, please look at Wikipedia:Reliable sources, or ask at the Teahouse. Thank you. --Worldbruce (talk) 07:35, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

Edit warring
[edit]Stop editwarring on Battle of Bint Jbeil. The last 12 edits to the page have been you and מתיאל making the same trivial revert of each other. Take content issues to the talk page. Also, this edit summary is unacceptable. Longhornsg (talk) 19:53, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
Inappropriate edit summaries
[edit]Edit summaries like this and this are not constructive. Calling sources deprecated because you disagree with them and throwing around Zionist is not constructive. Also calling Zionists terrorists on your userpage is WP:POLEMIC, so I removed that. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:30, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
- May I add that the current statements on this editor's talkpage, calling to "remove Pro-Zionist statements on Wikipedia, The Pro-Zionist or Pro-Western editing lowers the credibility of Wikipedia and makes it less reliable", raise possible issues of WP:NOTHERE, WP:RGW and contribute to the growing battleground behavior we see in this topic area. 916crdshn (talk) 17:59, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
Edit summaries
[edit] Hi, I noticed you removed a helpful link without explanation in this edit on World War II.
Checking your edit history, I see that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. For me, it would have sped up the process of finding the edit where the change occurred, as well as understanding any reasoning behind it.
Even a short summary is better than no summary, and they're particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may want to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your editing preferences.
Thanks! — W.andrea (talk) 22:52, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
Wikilinks and edit summaries
[edit]I noticed that you have been making changes to wikilinks which were complying with WP:MOS before your changes. You have then used types of style that are not recommended with no description of your actions in the edit summary. Please have a look at the guidance on MOS:PIPESTYLE which explains how to treat plurals and other derived names. I see that other editors have already commented about you using no edit summaries (or inappropriate phrases) on your talk page and have given you feedback on actions that you should take.

[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Bangladesh Army, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. In particular, please familiarize yourself with the Manual of Style related to capitalization. In general, only proper nouns and beginning of sentences get capitalized. – macaddct1984 (talk | contribs) 13:58, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Ramu Cantonment English School and College
[edit]Hello, BangladeshiEditorInSylhet,
Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Pppery and I thank you for your contributions.
I wanted to let you know, however, that I have tagged an article that you started, Ramu Cantonment English School and College, for deletion, because a consensus decision previously decided that it wasn't suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. If you wish to restore a page deleted via a deletion discussion, please use the deletion review process instead, rather than reposting the content of the page.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.
For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Pppery}}
. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~
. Thanks!
Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Unhelpful links, polluting meta data
[edit]Internal links are not all good. Within citations, the work may be linked "if relevant". It does not have to be linked, and is not always relevant. The purpose of citations is to allow readers to find the source that supports the information that cites it.
I can't imagine any situation in which linking Dhaka Tribune or bdnews24.com makes a source easier to find, the name alone is quite sufficient. If the source is obscure, has a name that has varied significantly over the years, or has a common name that might easily be confused with a different source, and has no other identifying information (such as a url) then a link might be relevant.
Although The Daily Star is not a unique name for a newspaper, it is generally obvious from context whether the Bangladeshi or Lebanese paper is meant. I would only link a citation to The Daily Star (Bangladesh) in an article where both newspapers are cited, or an article about a Lebanese topic, where a reader might otherwise assume The Daily Star (Lebanon) was meant.
Never, never, ever add "BD" to the end of the name of a work. The newspapers are named The Daily Star and Daily Sun, not The Daily Star BD or Daily Sun BD. Please clean up this pollution anywhere you've done it.

- I've cleaned up the "|work=<newspaper name> BD" mess for you.
- You make some useful edits, which are sincerely appreciated. In your recent ones, however, for every one that fixes something, another creates a new problem. Editors are allowed to make mistakes, and maybe you're just having a bad day, but that is not a good ratio of beneficial to detrimental edits. Successful contributors to Wikipedia find something they're good at and stick to it. Some editors, for example, concentrate on images or categories because they aren't fluent in English. If you're great at spelling or punctuation, but weak on capitalization rules, focus on what you're good at and leave the rest to other editors who have different strengths. --Worldbruce (talk) 06:08, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Worldbruce Alright, Please notify me if I make that mistake again. BangladeshiEditorInSylhet (talk) 07:42, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Daily Jalalabad
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/48px-Information_icon4.svg.png)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Daily Jalalabad requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Daily Jalalabad. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 08:25, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
