Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the page Kirar has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. Thank you. Dr.Pinsky (talk) 10:41, 27 January 2023 (UTC)

Rollback granted
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e7/Wikipedia_Rollbacker.svg/130px-Wikipedia_Rollbacker.svg.png)
Hi Admantine123. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or RedWarn.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 17:27, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Ajay Kumar Kushwaha Bibhutipur.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 20:20, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

Image source problem with File:Jagdeo Jayanti By RJD.jpg
![Image Copyright problem](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thank you for uploading File:Jagdeo Jayanti By RJD.jpg.
This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright.
If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F4 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 08:15, 3 April 2023 (UTC). If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 08:15, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
- After seeing what you posted on Whpq's user talk page about this file, I'm going to respond here. Are you able to find out anything other than Rashtriya Janata Dal about the provenance of the poster you photographed? Unless there's some reason under Indian copyright law that works created by political parties are considered to be within the public domain, I think it has to be assumed that the poster itself is protected by copyright unless it can clearly be shown otherwise. When you photograph a copyrighted work created by someone else, your photograph is considered to be a WP:Derivative work (see also c:COM:DW). So, while you own the copyright of the photo you take, someone else owns the copyright on whatever you photographed. In order for Wikipedia or Wikimedia Commons to keep files like this, it needs to be clearly shown the not only the photo but also the photographed work is either within the public domain or released under a copyright license acceptable for Wikipedia or Commons. The copyright license you release your photo under doesn't apply to the photograph work because that would mean that you're also claiming that you created the poster. Things are even a bit more trickier with respect to this poster since it also seems to be a derivative work itself because it looks like it's combining photos/drawings of party candidates with other graphical creative elements: therefore, the copyright status of each of the photos used in the poster may also need to be assessed. Since there's no freedom of panorama for 2D graphic works under Indian Copyright law per c:COM:FOP India, it's going to really hard to keep this photo without at least getting the WP:CONSENT from whomever created it. If you can find out who created the poster and get them to email their consent to Wikimedia VRT for verification purposes, the file can most likely be kept. If you can't find out any more information about the poster, a discussion about it can be started at WP:FFD; however, I think it's going to be really hard to establish a consensus in favor of keeping it for the reasons I stated above. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:35, 3 April 2023 (UTC)

Copyedit of Ramsewak Singh Kushwaha completed
Hello, Admantine123. This is a courtesy notice that the copy edit you requested for Ramsewak Singh Kushwaha at the Guild of Copy Editors requests page is now complete. All feedback welcome! — Garrett W. {☎ ✍} 06:13, 5 May 2023 (UTC) |
Note: comments below moved from REQ Requests page here for archiving reasons be me, Baffle☿gab 20:33, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
Done, although it seems you already did some work to remove the {{Tone}} tag. I have a couple of questions about the article's name:
- 1. All the sources seem to use a spelling of "Ramsevak", not "Ramsewak" -- should it be changed?
- 2. "Kushwaha" does not appear anywhere in the article nor in the sources as part of his name; furthermore, some of the sources draw a distinction between this man and others who do wear the surname Kushwaha; so is it actually correct?
- — Garrett W. {☎ ✍} 06:05, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
- Baffle gab1978 and Garrettw87, there are other politician with similar names like one i have mentioned above article while creating it. In many cases, i noticed that there are 5-6 politicians with same name and in order to distinguish between them, editors make slight difference in their names, like adding their state or date of birth in the title of article. Here, i have added surname for the same purpose as there are many sources which tells us about the caste of this politician. Spelling is not an issue, both are correct, whether we use "w" or "v".- Admantine123 (talk) 20:44, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
The newly appointed Ministers are Ashok Coudhary, Shyam Rajak, Narendra Narayan Yadav, Sanjay Jha, Ramsewak Singh, Lakshmeshwar Rai, Neeraj Kumar and Bima Bharti. Bima Bharti is the only woman.
- See, in one of the English source, they have used Ramsewak. So, it's perfectly okay. Also, most of the sources are in Hindi language, which tells about his caste. Admantine123 (talk) 20:52, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for your input, as I am not well-versed on Indian culture. I had a hunch that the "v" and "w" might be interchangeable, but it seems I overlooked a source that used "w". I did look through the Hindi sources using Google Translate but there again, it seems I must have missed mentions of "Kushwaha" in conjunction with him. — Garrett W. {☎ ✍} 21:13, 5 May 2023 (UTC)

Your comments on Talk:Bhumihar
Hello, thank you for engaging in discussions on the talk page for the article Bhumihar and recusing yourself from it. I think that is a constructive move. I will reply in details to your comments there when I have more time but I will note two things: Mr Simon T., a British editor, may be "well-versed in caste related matters" but he is not the only one allowed to edit caste articles. Moreover, he is not an academic. Dr KS Singh was the Director General of Anthropological Survey of India who wrote many books published by Oxford and he is not reliable? And casteism activist Jogendra Nath Bhattacharya is?
Anyway, I am glad you have recused yourself from this matter and I do not want to point fingers. I hope you will agree that the article is in need of clean-up, improvement and an encyclopaedic, impartial tone. Ohh btw I love Nepal (assuming that you live there but sort of doubt it). Do Indian ATM cards work there? If so, which ones?Recently, we noticed that they did not. Please help as I really want to visit again. Thank you. :) --Trickipaedia (talk) 05:08, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

You have recently edited a page related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an 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.
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.

Unconstructive Revision Restore
Hello Admantine123
you seem to have restored Amar Singh I to your own changes you made a while ago, i understand that you did so to revert vandalism but this caused loss of a lot of info about campaigns of Mahabat Khan, Abdullah Khan,Aziz Koa and other details regarding him. The revision you reverted to talks more about Pratap(in that too some of its historicity is disputed) than Amar Singh. Also info about his involvement in literary works he undertook was lost. Please do not revert the page entirely back to your own changes on occurrence of any future vandalism.
Feel free to expand the article with any info you want to.
Thank You. Mewar11111 (talk) 18:46, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
- You have used poor sources and removed the things from high quality source like that of Early. This is called vandalism and pov edit. Admantine123 (talk) 04:16, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
- Please add back any 'relevant' info you think is missing From Early in the article.
- the sources i have used is R.C. Majumdar and Ram Vallabh Somani (who has done one of the most comprehensive research on history of Mewar). you are free to research about their credibility or take second opinion from any user who is a history scholar. Can you mention me what are your basis for calling their work as 'poor sources' then i might be able to clear your doubts
- Reverting back to changes you made years ago i do not think is appropriate. this will undo all the efforts done by any other user
- in your revision, under section 'Role in mughal-mewar conflict' two para's were dedicated to Pratap and Amar Singh role was summed up in few line, it lacked any details about the campaign and only mention their commander name . i have added info about their campaigns. Expanded it than before none of any previous relevant info is lost Mewar11111 (talk) 07:07, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
- I don't question R.C Majumdar as he is a prominent historian. I had doubt on that Mateswari publication source. Because most of such regional publication may have some pov with respect to Rajput history. They tend to glorify the events rather than observing it neutrally. Which is often visible from the language. I dispute your removal of that quote of Amar Singh's submission before jahangir, which was reliably sourced.- Admantine123 (talk) 07:37, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Manipulating source to distort facts ? Regarding Kushwaha article
Hello Admantine123
It seems like you are trying to distort facts by selectively omitting text/facts from the sentences of the very sources you use.
Example :
This is the text you added on Sep 21 , 2023
"The communities which merged into this caste cluster includes Marrar, Mali, Panar, Shakya, Maurya and Saini besides the three castes of Koeri, Kachhi and Murao, which originally formed the part of this cluster."
Source - Patel, Mahendra Lal (1997). Awareness in Weaker Section: Perspective Development and Prospects
This is the original text
"A number of families belonging to these caste groups, namely, Kachhi, Kachhwaha, Kushwaha, Mali, Marrar, Saini, Sonkar, Murai, Shakya, Mourya, Koyri, Koeri, and Panara have come closer to each other and have started intermarrying"
Question: Original text has the 'Kachhwaha' mentioned, which you omitted ! Can you please explain why this was done ?
NOTE: This can't be a mistake because you copy pasted this exact sentence from source in citation "A number of families belonging to these caste groups, namely, Kachhi, Kushwaha, Mali, Marrar, Saini, Murai, Shakya, Mourya, Koyri, Koeri, and Panara have come closer to each other and have started intermarrying. " The only thing missing here is the 'Kachhwaha' community and the only way to do that is to specifically remove it from original sentence and then paste manipulated sentence as citation.
GlynClarke (talk) 00:57, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
- GlynClarke, That is not said in the context of Kachhwaha Rajput, that is said in context of Kachhi caste, the term Kachhwaha has never been described by any author as Kachhwaha Rajput clan of Jaipur, they are saying that in context of Kachhi caste of agriculturist. Second thing is please don't make Wikipedia a place to write your pseudo historical assumption that Kachhwaha Rajputs and Kushwaha are same. No caste is weaker or stronger in present scenario. You don't need to link yourself with any caste to raise your social status, something you and few editors who choose to edit only selective articles are trying to do here.You think that anyhow merging with a Rajput clan will make you high,but this fact is used by them to claim that you are low and you have nothing to show to the world that's y to gain social recognition you are linking up with them. Be yourself like the Yadav and Jat caste. I am tired reporting disruptive editors who are here for sanskritising purpose.I am not against your caste.Your caste is presently more politically powerful than those with whom you are trying to link. And if even after that you are trying to do that... you are proving yourself low and giving them a chance to say that you are low.Admantine123 (talk) 07:08, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
- GlynClarke, terms can be similar. And William Pinch also never said that Kachhwaha stands for that family of Man Singh and all from Jaipur. He was saying about cultivator Kachhwaha. Also in the source of Patel, Mahendra Lal, he wrote Koyri, Koeri as different caste, but they are just different pronunciation. So be selective in including the text from book. In present scenario too the surname Kushwah in Madhya Pradesh is used both by minority Rajput caste and OBC Kushwaha, about whom we are taking here. But outside Madhya Pradesh Kushwaha stand for the agricultural caste cluster of Koeri Kachhi Murao only. Even nowadays a general reader or common Indian will always understand Kushwaha to be the OBC Kushwaha, the agriculturist and except few history reader, no-one knows that there is something like Kachhwaha Rajput. We know that because we have grown up reading mediaeval history. But, the agriculturist Kushwahas are more renowned and produce more Notable politicians presently. It is disgusting to tackle editors who anyhow want to link them with Jaipur family now, by putting pseudo historical assumption. Believe me, there is no need to do so and my advice to all of you is that rather than forging manipulated history, you should preserve what is your real history. Admantine123 (talk) 07:30, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
- (1) I have the presented the facts as they are. But it looks like you are pushing your own POV and using SYNTH by selectively omitting words from the very sources you are citing. This is against Wikipedia Guidelines and I will have to raise complain against you if you continue to vandalize.
- (2) There is no linking of Kushwaha/Kachhwaha/Kachhi to Kachhwaha of Rajasthan. If you see properly I have not linked Kachhwaha article when mentioning Kachhwaha word in Kushwaha article. But as we very clearly see, in the same sources (whose text you manipulated) Kachhwaha is part of Kushwaha. whether this Kachhwaha is same as Kachhwaha of Rajasthan that is NOT the topic of this discussion , nor is mentioned or implied anywhere.
- Pasting the excerpts again from the same legitimate sources:
- >> Original Text from Book "Kushvaha-kshatriya identity was espoused by agricultural communities well known throughout the Gangetic north for an expertise in small-scale vegetable and (to an increasingly limited extent after the turn of the twentieth century) poppy cultivation. Prominent among them were Kachhi and Murao agriculturalists of central Uttar Pradesh, Kachhvahas of western Uttar Pradesh, and Koiris of Bihar and eastern Uttar Pradesh." Source: Peasants and Monks in British India
- >> Original Text from Book : "The reclassification by identification as other backward classes has placed them in various disadvantageous situations, as political reservations are not permitted to OBC persons. A number of families belonging to these caste groups, namely, Kachhi, Kachhwaha, Kushwaha, Mali, Marrar, Saini, Sonkar, Murai, Shakya, Mourya, Koyri, Koeri, and Panara have come closer to each other and have started intermarrying. They have now developed an all-India network to ensure caste solidarity without jeopardizing the caste interests." Source: Awareness in Weaker Section: Perspective Development and Prospects GlynClarke (talk) 12:42, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
- Then properly write the spelling of Kachhvaha as mentioned in the source. No author have said that they both are same. Pinch mentions them but he is talking about cultivator kachhhvaha of western Uttar Pradesh and not any Rajput clan. Also, learn editing before starting to edit contentious articles. You have left error after your addition on that page. Admantine123 (talk) 12:47, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
- Also, I am not here to add something on a single article like some people are doing here with two three accounts. So, its not me, who need to care about complaints. Admantine123 (talk) 12:53, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

- GlynClarke, I will reiterate. Whatever be the intention behind forcibly including the Kachhwaha word, it was not at all necessary as it creates confusion. Kachhi call themselves Kachhwaha and even without linking many will understand it to be Kachhwaha Rajput of Rajasthan. Specially kids visiting Wikipedia. They will argue on social media that jaipur fort was made by their ancestors and will make fun of themselves among others. No aware person from this caste group links themselves with Kachhwaha nor any caste organisation of Kushwaha caste claim Jaipur family to be their own. I have read them differently. Specially in context of Mandal politics, Bihar land Reform drive and their rise along with Yadavs and Kurmis. Whoever trying to link them by manipulating the loopholes of Wikipedia is making fun of themselves and branding their own community as lowly, not having any contribution of their own. Admantine123 (talk) 13:02, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
- As already mentioned above (please re-read) there is no linking of Kushwaha/Kachhwaha/Kachhi to Kachhwaha of Rajasthan, mentioned or implied anywhere. At Wikipedia we focus on presenting facts without worrying about socio-political outcomes. You seem to be too emotionally involved to think rationally. GlynClarke (talk) 13:13, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
- Well, I have nothing to reply on this. I have explained everything already. A genuine advice for you and others is you people should also contribute to Wikipedia by editing other articles rather than appearing only occassionally to edit particular articles by doing minor edits rather than any significant improvement in it. Admantine123 (talk) 13:21, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

Lonia
Hello Admantine123. I saw that you had recently been in an editing dispute with another editor on the Lonia article. The other editor has since been blocked, however I wanted to check that you were aware of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring and in particular the three revert rule, which applies to you whether or not you are in the right when changing something back to how it should be. Inadvertently breaking the 3RR rule can have serious consequences including being blocked from editing, so be sure to bear that in mind when you next revert someone else's edits.

Regarding Kachhwaha article
Below arguments are regarding and limited only to Kachhwaha clan mentioned on the the Kachhwaha article.
There is an overwhelming evidence that the name 'Kushwaha' is and has been used as synonym for Kachhwaha.
I am presenting some of the evidences below. If there are any legitimate and fact based counters ( not emotions, not opinion, not OR ) please present.
I will wait for a week and if there are no reliable counters I will be adding Kushwaha as a synonym of Kachhwaha.
Evidence are below:
(1) Annals and Antiquities of Rajasthan (3 Vols)
By James Tod · 1987
Says "Kushwaha or Kachhwaha" are part of 36 royal races
(2) Indian History Congress , 1970
1970. Part 2. Proceedings of the 32nd session, Jabalpur · Part 2
Says that Kushwaha deteriorated and was called Kachhwaha
(3) Memoranda on Native States in India, Together with a List of Independent Ruling Chiefs, Chiefs of Frontier States, and Other Notables with Their Proper Forms of Address ( 1911, British govt )
Says that "The Jaipur Chief is the head of the Kachhwaha or Kushwaha clan of Rajputs,"
https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.35691/page/n109/mode/2up?q=kushwaha
(4) Memoranda on The Indian States 1935 (British govt)
Says that "The Jaipur Ruling Prince is the head of the Kachwaha or Kushwaha clan of Rajputs and is of the solar line tracing his descent from Kush, one of the sons of Rama, King of Ayodhya."
https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.284347/page/n211/mode/2up?q=kushwaha+kachhwaha
(4) THE MODERN REVIEW VOL. 83,FEBRUARY-DECEMBER 1948 (govt)
Says that The clan Kachhwaha is the corrupted form of the word Kushwaha
https://archive.org/details/dli.bengal.10689.18328/page/n685/mode/2up?q=kushwaha+kachhwaha
(5) Encyclopaedia Asiatica,vol.5,ed.3
by Balfour,edward
Says the second son of Rama, gave his fresh butter, which gives the sauce an exquisite name to the Kushwaha or Cutchwaha princes of Nirwar and Amber.

GlynClarke (talk) 20:36, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
- GlynClarke Here you lose. Tod is rejected by Wikipedia community and is considered an unreliable source. None of the sources you have listed are considered reliable and if you add it they will be easily reverted by senior editors like Sitush, Ekdalian and many others. Tod was considered reliable long ago because of his biased views and he is considered someone who was very impressed with Rajputs. You may check the history of Rajput article. There the same source was removed after a long discussion. This is what you call policies. Now personal view is that most of the people I mean Notables using Kushwaha surname nowadays are not those Kachhwaha from whose side you are here. They must be a minority group unable to make even a single MLA of their own. These sources are poor quality and even a newspaper source will defeat them easily. The source of your knowledge, which seems to be the Self Published Sources of Rajput community and their caste website are not reliable on Wiki. Admantine123 (talk) 20:52, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
- Most of the sources comes under WP:RAJ and are highly unreliable.
- First two are from Tod, and he is too unreliable. This is not Hindi Wikipedia where the editors can add what they read on blogs. Kachhwaha royal house is never known as Kushwaha in history. I am a post graduate in history, they were always called kachhwaha. Their adoption of Kushwaha is a latest phenomenon. I am not surprised as they even claim Yadav and Saini surname to be their own. Actually they lost the race of civilization to the obc castes and want to show the world that they are still relevant, that's why associating themselves with them anyhow. On the policy side.... you try to add them. I will urge the senior editors who will remove them outrightly as they all are very poor opinionated sources. Admantine123 (talk) 20:57, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
- OK Thanks. But even if we ignore evidence 1 and 2. Still we have the 4 more evidences from govt sources (indian and British) which clearly establish that Kushwaha has been used as a synonym if Kachhwaha Rajputs. And just to clarify the argument here is NOT where they were actually Kushwaha or not, or related to Kush (Lord Ram) or not, the argument is wether they were referred to as Kushwaha and Kachhwaha both by others or not. In this case, we clearly see that Kushwaha and Kachhwaha were/are being used interchangeably or as a synonym. GlynClarke (talk) 21:05, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
- I said read WP:RAJ. They are unreliable sources. On caste articles specially for which modern sources are a available, pre 1947 sources are not reliable. Sitush has explained it in his castelist. This is because Rajputs and Brahmins were the translator and only educated section of society then. The writers like Tod and others were not historians or sociologists but British administrators and they used to mention everything told by those people. Hence their writings were biased. All your sources are from Raj era and rest which are not raj era is from Tod who was unreliable and removed from all places on Wikipedia, where it was used. A personal piece of advice: no community is interested in merging with Kachhwahas as they have nothing to give them. Second thing Koeri Kachhi and Murao never associated themselves with Jaipur family. They associated themselves with Rama and that's what every community does. Even when Balban was in power he associated himself with Afrasiyab. Whoever becomes powerful traces lineage from mythological characters. Admantine123 (talk) 21:12, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
- GlynClarke Kachhwahas should use Chundawat Shaktawat etc. As officially Government of Bihar and even government of India issues OBC certificate with the name Kushwaha to Koeri Kachhi and Murao community. Government of India has officially recognised them with this name. Admantine123 (talk) 21:16, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

Then, navigate to the talk page of the article in question. On the talk page, you'll find a 'Tools' menu where you can click on 'Rater.' From there, you can adjust the article's assessment according to its quality and make sure to save your changes.
If you have any more questions or need assistance with anything else, feel free to reach out. Best regards! 𝙳𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚖𝚁𝚒𝚖𝚖𝚎𝚛 𝚍𝚒𝚜𝚌𝚞𝚜𝚜 10:15, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks, will try to do it in evening. Can you install rater for my account. I don't know how to do it. Admantine123 (talk) 10:17, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
- You can easily install this script. To do so, add the following line to Special:MyPage/common.js.

- I'm pinging @Novem Linguae because he's an interface admin and is capable of creating/editing JS pages. If he has some free time, perhaps he can help with the installation for you. 𝙳𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚖𝚁𝚒𝚖𝚖𝚎𝚛 𝚍𝚒𝚜𝚌𝚞𝚜𝚜 13:25, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks. I am aware of him. Admantine123 (talk) 15:57, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
- Howdy. DreamRimmer is correct on the installation instructions. The installation instructions are pretty easy so I think I'll let Admantine123 do it themselves first. If you run into any problems feel free to ping me. Happy editing. –Novem Linguae (talk) 07:00, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
