@XYZ 250706 you know how to request a draft. Creating it without attribution is disruptive. Given the concerns raised at ANI and at the AfD, I have partially blocked you from this article. You remain free to edit elsewhere, but if you continue to be disruptive you'll lose further access.StarMississippi14:20, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Your reason hereXYZ 250706 (talk)11:36, 31 January 2025 (UTC) I did not know about the rule stating that a draft cannot be created without attribution. I may have made mistakes during AfDs but I didn't vandalise the article and made any disruptive edits in the article. Therefore I am requesting to be unblocked.[reply]

Decline reason:

You know perfectly well that this was not the only concern. You know because you were told so here on this page and you deleted that comment. I have to assume this unblock request was therefore made in bad faith. Stay away from P. Shanmugam. Don't make another unblock request until you have a substantial history oftrouble-free edits in unrelated subject areas.Yamla (talk)11:39, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

The main concern of the partial block on the pageP. Shanmugam (CPIM) was because of my creation of draft without attribution. Yes, I may have made mistakes during AfDs (bludgeoning), but I had (have) tried to rectify that. This block possibly also prevents me from using citation bot.

Decline reason:

Having reviewed this, I'm not convinced unblocking is a good idea. I'd echo what was said when your last unblock request was declined, I thinka substantial history of trouble-free edits in unrelated subject area would make your case more compelling. There are still nearly seven million pages you are not blocked from editing.Beeblebrox^Beebletalks22:30, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• No, you were blocked because you were disruptive at the AfD and elsewhere. I told you I wouldn't give you the draft but another admin might and instead of following process, you end ran it. Nothing you have shown indicates you're ready to edit this article without even more disruption. I will not decline, but I do not recommend accepting. You can edit literally every other page of the project.StarMississippi21:41, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Star Mississippi: I'm trying to make sure I understand what went on here before accepting or declining this. I can see the bludgeoning at the AFD easily enough, what with all the unnecessary bolding, I take it that this user asked you to restore it as a draft, you declined to do so because you didn't trust them to handle it responsibly, and they recreated it by apparently copy-pasting a cached version of it from somewhere? Is that about right?Beeblebrox^Beebletalks22:02, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Correct @Beeblebrox.

NoteI will try not to bludgeon andhere's the ANI. They do not appear to respect consensus or listen to feedback. The draft is now back in mainspace thanks to the work of two other editors and I don't think XYZ editing it will be productive. As with the draft should they have gone to Refund, I have no objection should you choose to unblock.StarMississippi22:19, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Star Mississippi I also don't think I have to edit the page as per the current condition of the page. But I also cannot use citation bot as it blocks me from using it to other pages.XYZ 250706 (talk)02:39, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pinging @Smith609 as the maintainer for their insight here.StarMississippi02:50, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

actually, they appear inactive. @AManWithNoPlan, @Folly Mox might you have any insight here? The user is p-blocked from one page and says they cannot use Citation bot.StarMississippi02:55, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

(responding toping) It could be thatOAuth is – just like with TWL – unable or unwilling to differentiate between a partial block and a full block. XYZ 250706, can you use theCitation expander gadget? Documentation indicates that method of invoking Citation bot does not require OAuth authentication. AManWithNoPlan is likely to have better information. I've never actually dipped my toes into the Citation bot codebase.

Everyone please double check all citation scripts for accuracy and completeness.Folly Mox (talk)15:21, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Folly Mox I cannot find the tool in the right side. I can find some other tools like page information, what links here. But I cannot find any option like expand citations [I can find shortening URLs, is that the same thing?].XYZ 250706 (talk)03:16, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently unrelated per below, but have youenable[d] theCitation expander gadget inthe gadgets tab of your preferences panel perthe instructions? It's not enabled by default (and different toSpecial:URLShortener)Folly Mox (talk)12:19, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

XYZ 250706, why do you need to use the citationbot (whatever that is)? Why can you not just complete citation templates manually like I do?

My impression is that bot editing tools often (but not always) make errors completing citation templates, for example:|last1=info medias |first1=the when it should have said||last1=Sharma |first1=Deepak.^{correction made here.} You do not need citationbot; you will probably become a better Wikipedia editor if you never know it exists.-- Toddy1(talk)09:56, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Citation bot saves a lot of time. If there is any error, I can change it manually.XYZ 250706 (talk)10:18, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Partial blocks will now be ignored by the bot.AManWithNoPlan (talk)01:51, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@AManWithNoPlan Yes, partial blocks are now ignored by citation bot. But it is not working now. I triedNext Bangladeshi general election. But on the top it shows Processing page 'Next Bangladeshi general election' — edit—history and I can see that no change has been taken place.XYZ 250706 (talk)03:11, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That is in no way related to the p-block; it’s an issue with citation bot.Vanderwaalforces (talk)03:27, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That issue with those urls and the page are now fixed.AManWithNoPlan (talk)14:09, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

One more thing, reFill does some urls that the bot does not. It also will merge duplicate references into things like <ref name=auto/>, which is aweseome. BUT, it sometimes completely hoses that job up and deletes refs. Also, it is less picky about data quality and sometimes will add titles such as "Girls girls girls!!!" to hyjacked domains. Lastly, it "updates" URLS which is often really good, but sometimes horrible. So, double-check all edits.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:ReFillAManWithNoPlan (talk)14:36, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, XYZ 250706.

You stated "National parties were added before 2024 elections too to stop edit warring." but inclusion of AAP and CPI in the infobox of "Next Indian general election" was done by you on 17th September 2025; and in the article "2024 Indian general election" these parties are not even mentioned in the infobox. Can you state which discussion are you talking about that does take effect on this article but not on that article.

Moreover there are 6 national parties in India recognized by the ECI; by your logic we should include all of them here.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia!TricanaQ (talk)05:16, 21 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@TricanaQ I told before 2024 election, all six national parties were added. I included all of them at first and one editor told that BSP and NPP should be removed as they have no seat.XYZ 250706 (talk)05:17, 21 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@XYZ 250706 This page had only one edit before "2024 elections" and in that only BJP and Congress was mentioned in the infobox; in the recent edits of this page by you, lots of parties were mentioned in the infobox but not AAP and CPI till17th September 2025, and the criteria set by you seems to be a little flawed given you are including national parties with 3 or 4 seats in the last election but not including parties that are state parties in multiple states with double digit seats but whatever, it should have been first discussed on the talk page before coming to this decision this should be the criteria we use.

Also, It's also a bit inconsistent that in the article "2024 Indian general election"; AAP and CPI were never part of the infobox; neither before or after the elections. So, your statement "before 2024 election, all six national parties were added" is contradictory for both the articles.

My opinion is that we should remove AAP and CPI from the infobox till a consensus is reached on the talk page of the article.TricanaQ (talk)06:04, 21 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@TricanaQ Please see edit history properly. I am not telling lie. Before 2024 election, all six national parties were added for considerable period in2024 Indian general election article.

Besides those parties are considered major by the conducting body and hence they are given streaming in government media and many other benefits.

If you want, you can add all six national parties. There are many times edit warring regarding infobox and hence all six national parties (then BSP and NPP had seats) were added.XYZ 250706 (talk)06:43, 21 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You madethis edit on 21 September 2025 to the article on theRashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. Please can you add two citations that explicitly support "far-right" next to the term. (Please do not put them at the end of the sentence.)

There are two citations that support "Hindutva" next to that word - theyonly support Hindutva.-- Toddy1(talk)11:29, 21 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Toddy1 I have added one citation regarding Hindutva as a variant of right wing extremism. I have citations like Hindutva being inspired from far-right ideologies like Fascism and Zionism. Should I add them?XYZ 250706 (talk)13:17, 21 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry XYZ 250706, your edits explicitly violate RfC/enwiki procedure and are unacceptable. The currentWP:LEDE of the article was had through multipleWP:CONSENSUS building discussions involving a multitude of editors and any editor cannot unilaterally overturn that consensus. A proper procedure is RfC, which was done and failed to get any traction. You then alone cannot do away with the results of the RfC which resulted in no consensus for a change for the proposal.

Please do not try and edit war over this, as a procedural violation I will take such edit warring to ANI or other admins for attention.Gotitbro (talk)13:47, 21 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Gotitbro Hey. I am not edit warring. I added far right with citations as told byToddy1.XYZ 250706 (talk)14:49, 21 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Toddy was generally advicing you in good faith on how enwiki edits usually follow. But before your latest edits, you were clearly told on the Talk page that your edits are against consensus and against the recent RfC for the same thing, you already have an explicit comment in the article telling you to "PerWP:CONSENSUS, seek a change for the lead sentence through discussion on the Talk page."

And since the recent RfC failed to result in any affirmation for the proposal, you shouldn't have made the edits against CONSENSUS. Basic procedural violations should never be made, you did that twice and that isdisruptive edit warring, please refrain from any further edits regarding the lede which don't have prior consensus.Gotitbro (talk)15:01, 21 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If you have sources that explicitly say that Hindutva is a far-right ideology, and the article already has sources that support the statement that RSS is Hindutva, you cannot combine them to say that RSS is far right. SeeWP:SYNTH, which says "Do not combine material from multiple sources to state or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources."-- Toddy1(talk)18:14, 21 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If you have sources that say that Hindutva was inspired by far-right ideologies, that does not necessarily support that Hindutva is a far-right ideology. If you doubt this:

• The existence of crime inspired societies to create police forces.
• The Bolshevik take-over of Russia, inspired the creation of far-right movements in the rest of Europe in the 1920s.
• The British use ofconcentration camps in the Second Boer War in 1900-03, inspired the Nazis to create their own concentration camps in entirely different circumstances in Germany in the 1930s.

@XYZ 250706 Is there any source for this? INC wouldn't give their symbol unless they want the candidate to contest as MGB candidate.Dhruv edits (talk)09:48, 20 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Dhruv edits Congress have fielded candidates against RJD also. So your statement saying "INC wouldn't give their symbol unless they want the candidate to contest as MGB candidate" is totally untrue. Poster posted by CPI says their candidate is supported by MGB (https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1MaDdH51TM/). Besides RJD and CPIM workers are actively working for CPI candidate. You can see various social media posts.XYZ 250706 (talk)17:30, 20 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Congress is having friendly contests with both RJD and CPI. Nothing to support that Congress candidates are not part of MGB, but RJD and CPI candidates are MBG candidates. Even VIP is contesting against RJD on one Constituency and both candidates are shown. Whenever 2 alliance parties contest on the same seats, both candidates are shown, as evident in previous Indian election articles.Dhruv edits (talk)17:37, 20 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@XYZ 250706 Actions of campaign staff and supporters is irrelevant. Also, as perthis report, CPI should be contesting in 6 seats in MGB alliance, however they are contesting 9 seats. So we aren't removing CPI candidates as well.Dhruv edits (talk)17:43, 20 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Dhruv edits CPI has only 6 candidates supported by the alliance. Keep those only and for each candidate of the alliance-member party outside alliance, we should add a side note. Congress candidate in Bachhwara is not MGB supported. If it was supported by MGB, then the number of MGB supported CPI candidates would have been five.XYZ 250706 (talk)04:33, 21 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@XYZ 250706. I understand your point; but the issue is that there is no source telling us that our of the 4 seats where it is Congress vs CPI, which 3 have Congress as MGB candidate and which 1 seat has CPI as MGB candidate. Further, the report which I shared with you doesn't include IIP in the calculation (55 Cong + 30 Left + 15 VIP), which makes the numbers in that report incorrect. Unilaterally deciding which candidate is the true MGB candidate in these seats without proper sources to back it up will amount toOriginal Research, so it cannot be done.Dhruv edits (talk)04:51, 21 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
