What are the four general rules at Wikipedia?

The four general rules are to respect your fellow Wikipedians, remain neutral, cite your sources, and to ignore a rule if it prevents you from improving or maintaining Wikipedia.

How do I edit a page?

Click 'Edit this page' or 'Edit' on the top of the page that you want to edit.
Make your changes in the edit window.
Preview your changes by clicking the 'Show preview' button.
Click the 'Save page' button.

See Wikipedia:How to edit a page for more detailed information.

Why can't I edit some particular pages?

Some pages that have been vandalized repeatedly are semi-protected, meaning that editing by new or unregistered users is prohibited through technical measures. If you have an account that is four days old and has made at least 10 edits, then you can bypass semi-protection and edit any semi-protected page. Some pages, such as highly visible templates, are fully-protected, meaning that only administrators can edit them.

Where can I experiment with editing Wikipedia?

Use the main sandbox or create your own personal sandbox to experiment.

How do I create an article?

Please use the Article Wizard to create one, then add references to the article as explained below.

What are references, sources, and citations all about?

All claims must be supported by a book, website, or news organization independent of the subject of the article. The source must be reliable, meaning it cannot be a blog, MySpace page, or personal website. This makes it difficult, if not impossible, to prove that an inaccurate statement is true, and that it should stay in the article. The policy regarding this states that the statement has to be verifiable, not necessarily true. See Wikipedia:Verifiability for more information.

How do I insert a reference into an article?

For inline references:

Do a search on Ask.com, Google, or your preferred search engine for the subject of the article that you want to put a reference in.
Click 'Edit this page' or 'Edit' in the Wikipedia article, and insert a claim into that article stating a fact about the subject. Don't click the save button just yet.
In the search you did in step 1, find a website that supports the claim you made in step 2. Highlight the address in the address bar (where it says http://www.some-website.com/some-page.htm).
Go to the reference generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out the as many fields as you can. Then click 'Get reference wiki text'.
Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text.
In the article, after the claim you made in step 2, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied in step 5.
If the article does not have a References, Footnotes, Notes, or Bibliography section, then add this below the See Also section and above the External Links section:

==References==
{{Reflist}}

For references put at the end of an article:

Do a search on Ask.com, Google, or your preferred search engine for the subject of the article that you want to put a reference in.
In the search, find a website that supports the claims made in the article. Highlight the address in the address bar (where it says http://www.some-website.com/some-page.htm).
Go to the reference generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out the as many fields as you can. Then click 'Get reference wiki text'.
Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text.
Go to the Wikipedia article. If the article does not have a References, Footnotes, Notes, or Bibliography section, then add this below the See Also section and above the External Links section:

==References==
{{Reflist}}

Then, add this after the {{Reflist}}, in a new line:

{{Refbegin}}
*Press paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) after this asterisk, then remove the <ref></ref> tags

{{Refend}}

What is a WikiProject, and how do I join one?

A WikiProject is a group of editors that are interested in improving the coverage of certain topics on Wikipedia. If you would like to help, add your username to the list that is on the bottom of the WikiProject page.

How do I format text on Wikipedia?

See Wikipedia:Cheatsheet.

Unexplained removal at Ahirs

Greetings, you removed from the article Ahirs the well-cited comment about some seeing them as Shudra. You gave no explanation for this, so it has been reverted. If you have a concern about the article, take it up on Talk:Ahirs. Thanks! MatthewVanitas (talk) 13:35, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

List of shudra communities ( scheduled castes and scheduled tribes) provided by the GOVERNMENT OF INDIA (MINISTRY OF HOME AFFAIRS) census department clearly shows that yadavs(Ahirs) caste is not subjected to shudra communities. Reference given below http://censusindia.gov.in/Tables_Published/SCST/scst_main.html Vikraantkaka (talk) 06:16, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

shudra is the fourth Varna in the traditional four-section division in the caste system. Their assigned and expected role in post-Vedic India was that of servants and laborers. The four Varnas are Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya and Shudra. Yadav (Ahir) came under kshatriya varna. And more precisely a single caste can't be categorized into two varna according to post vedic divisions. Ref: 1.Shudras in Ancient India, R. Chandra and K.L. Chanchreek. New Delhi, Shree Pub., 2004, ISBN 81-88658-65-0.

4.The Jati-Varna Matrix Vikraantkaka (talk) 06:16, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Inscriptions of Shudra dynasties declare that belonging to the fourth varna was a matter of pride. An inscription of Singaya-Nayaka (1368 CE) says: The three castes, Brahmanas and the next [Kshatriyas and Vaishyas], were produced from the face, the arms and the thighs of the Lord; and for their support was born the fourth caste from His feet. River Ganges, the purifier of the three worlds also sprang from Lord's feet. The members of this caste are eagerly attentive to their duties, not wicked, pure-minded, and are devoid of passion and other such blemishes; they ably bear all the burdens of the earth by helping those born in the other caste.

The discussion needs to be on the Talk page of the article, not here, as people following and editing the article won't necessarily be watching your Talk page. If you give us an agreement that you will discuss it there first, and not remove that content from the article again until you have achieved a consensus to support your desired change, then I will unblock you so you can do that. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:38, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There really is no point your telling us all this stuff here, where nobody will be reading it - it needs to go on the Talk Pages of the relevant articles, for example at Talk:Yadav. As I say, if you will give us a commitment to go and discuss it there and achieve a consensus *before* removing the currently sourced material, then I will be happy to unblock you so you can do so. But if you keep making your argument here, nobody will see it, and it will not contribute to any consensus-building discussion. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 13:28, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. There do not appear to be any ongoing investigations, and the sockpuppet report is closed - and you were not blocked for editing logged out, as far as I can see. If you wish to protest the block and be unblocked, you should follow the instructions in the block notice above, by appending the text "{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}" at the bottom of this page. That will alert admins to come and review your request -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 08:38, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
