Hi, it seems that you are still adding copyright violations, despite previous warnings not to do this. I don't get why you are still autopatrolled, considering the ongoing issues.

For example, in Draft:ACUMER (which I draftified for this reason and because it had other issues with neutrality and fact-checking as well), you wrote

  • "a proposed unified financial messaging system that would facilitate faster and more efficient inter-bank financial settlements between member countries within the ACU network."

In the source (not the source given with that sentence, but one used elsewhere), we find:

  • "a proposed unified financial messaging system that would facilitate faster and more efficient inter-bank settlements between member countries within the ACU network."

Simply adding one (unnecessary) word doesn't magically make this policy-compliant. Similarly, putting "focus on the implementation of ACUMER as the tailor made platform in the process of facilitation of payment systems for cross-border transactions." instead of "focused on the implementation of ACUMER, the facilitation of payment systems for cross-border transactions." is still a copyright violation. As is "focused on introducing digital currency and simplifying the cross-border transaction method" instead of "focused on introducing digital currency and simplifying the cross-border transaction method."

And then we have Draft:Acumer polymer (which I just moved to draft space).

"Acumer polymer also simply known as Acumer is a typical flagship brand of polymer manufactured by Dow Chemical Company according to a quick Google search supported by a verified claim through Artificial Intelligence" (emphasis mine). I'll head back to ANI to at the very least get your autopatrolled right removed, no idea if this will satisfy people or if this stunning display of WP:CIR will lead to a mainspace block.

WikiCup 2025 March newsletter

Latest comment: 1 year ago 1 comment1 person in discussion

The first round of the 2025 WikiCup ended on 26 February. As a reminder, we are no longer disqualifying the lowest-scoring contestants; everyone who competed in round 1 will advance to round 2 unless they have withdrawn or been banned from Wikipedia. Instead, the contestants with the highest round-point totals now receive tournament points at the end of each round. Unlike the round points in the main WikiCup table, which are reset at the end of each round, tournament points are carried over between rounds and can only be earned if a competitor is among the top 16 round-point scorers. This table shows all competitors who have received tournament points so far.

Round 1 was very competitive compared with previous years; two contestants scored more than 1,000 round points, and the top 16 contestants all scored more than 500 round points. The following competitors scored more than 800 round points:

The full scores for round 1 can be seen here. During this round, contestants have claimed 18 featured articles, 26 featured lists, 1 featured-topic article, 197 good articles, 38 good-topic articles and more than 100 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 23 In the News articles, and they have conducted nearly 550 reviews.

Remember that any content promoted after 26 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2, which begins on 1 March. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

To answer your question

Latest comment: 1 year ago 12 comments4 people in discussion

Which was TSR Srinivasan's first film? It was Aranmanai (2014). My previous answer was wrong. I knew it had to be in another interview you didn't link. As per the films, he did after Aranmanai (2014) in crowd artist roles, only God knows. DareshMohan (talk) 07:07, 17 February 2025 (UTC)

@DareshMohan: Sorry I couldn't reply to your message on Ranganathan Francis thing, as I was preparing for Table topic contest as part of Toastmasters International's affliated local club. Damn I did not have any idea whether TSR Srinivasan had featured in Aranmanai , because I thought apart from Idhayam, I had a notion that Vindhai would have been his first major film where he gets a brief role. Abishe (talk) 10:11, 17 February 2025 (UTC)

Article request: is Naga Vishal notable? . He also played a very minor role with his KD costar (Mu Ramaswamy) whom he calls thatha" in Kombu Vatcha Singamda. DareshMohan (talk) 03:10, 23 February 2025 (UTC)
@DareshMohan: Naga Vishal is a child actor and probably he may fall short of WP:GNG guidelines. He still has a long way to go and I wonder the subject is sufficient to ha s a noteworthy article. I think he has done only handful of films and it may be too early to write about him. Abishe (talk) 11:59, 26 February 2025 (UTC)
No problem, can you write the content for the article Draft:Goundamani and Senthil, I only know of their banana comedy. DareshMohan (talk) 16:31, 26 February 2025 (UTC)
Great work on TSR Srinivasan, he even made a non-speaking cameo in Game Changer (Shankar film; he came in Indian 2 also). The black spot on his head must be from the injury mentioned in one of the YouTube interviews. DareshMohan (talk) 01:25, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
@DareshMohan: Looks like it's the end of the road for me in Wikipedia. All good things must come to an end. I am serving a life ban from Wikipedia for some copyright infringement issues and my writing style also did not meet the expected standards. I am not allowed to edit or write articles anymore and I can only edit talk pages of articles, users. I don't think that I can manage to make any meaningful contributions in the future and it all depends on admin to revert the ban for me to have a smooth comeback. Abishe (talk) 02:34, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
You can certainly suggest edits on the talk pages. If you demonstrate in that way that you can avoid the copyright issues and sourcing material to Google/ChatGPT searches, there's a good chance that the partial block will be lifted. On the other hand, if you don't make any edits before trying to get the block lifted, you'll probably be turned down. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 12:39, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
Abishe, but why are you not creating and editing draft pages?-- Toddy1 (talk) 14:11, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

@SarekOfVulcan: I am hoping to make suggestions to the talk pages of some of the articles that I had created, which have created a flak for my writing prowess. Currently I am occupying myself as a bookworm in order to get some fresh ideas so that I can incorporate them as an accurate portrayal of adhering to the intended writing style rather than compromising on the quality of the content. Abishe (talk) 14:51, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

@Toddy1: I was planning to write up some draft articles but I have to correct my writing style so I decided to not gamble again. I am jotting down points in notebooks to reshape my writing patterns so that anyone could understand. On the other hand, my focus shifted towards reading some books like Jeff Keller's The Winning Attitude: How to Create Extraordinary Results in Your Life to give a breathing space for myself to ensure that I should be in a positive frame of mind amid any calamities. Well somehow I had a feeling that I dug my own grave when I compiled an article about ACUMER which was developed by Iran (needless to say Iran being a sanctioned country itself as it is being banned from international trade activities) as an alternative option to the prominent payment mechanism SWIFT. I was so enthusiastic to write an article about it right from the scratch to give purpose to the reason behind creating an article about it so that readers can gain knowledge. I am currently working in compliance related stuff at my workplace where we often find cases related to money laundering, discrepancies related to know your customer procedures, Politically exposed person, CEFTS and that somehow got me into focus on writing up articles like GoAML, Draft:ACUMER. Abishe (talk) 14:51, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

There are several things about contributing to draftspace that you might consider:
  1. It is much easier when editing articles to show that you are making meaningful contributions and avoiding copyright issues and not sourcing material to Google/ChatGPT searches.
  2. It is less disruptive making mistakes in draftspace than in mainspace.
  3. You can learn by making mistakes, providing you do not mind being told about them.
I think that editing in draftspace would be good for you.-- Toddy1 (talk) 15:56, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

Stasshani Jayawardena moved to draftspace

Latest comment: 1 year ago 1 comment1 person in discussion

Thanks for your contributions to Stasshani Jayawardena. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and in particular you need to find independent sources that have written about the subject at some length, not just republications of press releases. I'd also suggest that you try and write more neutrally using your own words rather than closely paraphrasing sources, which is not permitted. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit for review" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. SunloungerFrog (talk) 15:58, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Abishe. I appreciate this happened 8 years ago, but I noticed that you contributed an image to Phace which I suspect may be a copywrite violation? WP:CV The image was uploaded as "original work" but from what I can gather, it is a press image from his booking agent from their website? I can't see any evidence that this is available under a suitable license.

I have removed the image for now to avoid any issues with copywrite violation, but if this is indeed original work or is available under a suitable CC license then do let me know or feel free to revert my edit explaining it.

I am actually very active in r/cricket more than in r/kollywood. I predominantly use reddit to engage in cricket discussions and talking about past history of the game. I don't really use reddit as a chatting app for casual conversations and same goes to discord to chat about cricket statistics more than personal things. Abishe (talk) 12:37, 3 August 2025 (UTC)

  • Researching historical women writers who used pseudonyms requires careful investigation across multiple sources, as many women adopted pen names to avoid gender bias and judgment (e.g., being labeled a bluestocking) and, ultimately, to get published.
