30px|link=|alt=Control copyright icon ↗ Hello THeShavidow1! Your additions to :Ranjan Gogoi ↗ have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain ↗ or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible ↗ copyright license.

While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright ↗ and plagiarism ↗ issues.

"The assault conviction is placed here for MOS:BLPCHRONO ↗; no editor who has moved this section has had a valid reason to contradict this and some are violating the WP:NPOV ↗ by doing ao

This is not some absolutist law, it is context dependent and a general guideline and is regularly not done based off of relevance and importance, such as the lede stating he is an MP despite that being after he was a banker. I have written most of that section and then placed I placed it at the bottom because frankly it is not the most relevant part of the BLP article. Accusing others of bad faith is absurd in this context, especially considering how what I wrote was hardly a forgiving read to the subject. NotQualified (talk) 17:06, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Dominic Johnson, Baron Johnson of Lainston



@THeShavidow1 - hello there! I note your wholescale revertion of my edits to the Lord Johnson of Lainston ↗ article. Whilst they most certainly weren't in any way "unnecessary wording changes", I respect your view & can revisit this again after a short while... Various things are wrong with the present wording, not least "Johnson earned a bachelor's degree in politics from Durham University, where he was a member of Collingwood College, graduating in 1995" (see my revision should you wish to see correct language) etc etc.. Thanks again your attention to such matters & maybe better I go thru and edit section by section..??? Best, Primm1234 (talk) 19:17, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia. Regarding your recent edits to :Omeo Kumar Das ↗ when you modified the page, you introduced {{cl|Unknown parameters|unknown parameters}}. Just because you specify {{para|some_param|{{var|some_variable}}}} does not always mean that variable will display. The {{para|some_param}} must be defined in the template. You can look at the documentation for the template you are using but it is also helpful to use the preview ↗ button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and ensure that the values you have added are displaying correctly. Below the edit box is a '''Show preview''' button. Pressing this will show you what the page will look like without actually saving it. It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. Note I have likely fixed the error by now so check the history ↗ of the page to see how it was fixed. If you have any questions, contact the help desk ↗ for assistance.
