editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia!
Someone using this IP address, 162.205.217.211, removed content from the page Intuition without giving an explanation. Please always provide an informative edit summary when removing content from pages. If 162.205.217.211 is a shared IP address and you did not do this, you may wish to consider getting a username to avoid confusion with other editors and further irrelevant notices.
Here are a few good links for newcomers:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Tips on starting your first article
- Help pages
- Tutorial
Here are some other hints and tips:
- I recommend that you get a username. You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and there are many benefits of having a username. (If you edit without a username, your IP address is used to identify you instead.)
- When using talk pages, please sign your name at the end of your messages by typing four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your username (or IP address) and the date.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question, ask me on my talk page, or type {{helpme}}
here on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! Shrikanthv (talk) 09:48, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
Ananda
editHi there. You wrote:
- "Ananda should not be translated as "happiness" because that is a word in English used for mild positiveness. Ananda is the source goodness behind anything positive in the Universe. "Bliss" is a better word because it is not used for mild, everyday occurrences, yet it is still understood as positive."
I don't agree with "bliss" (heroine is also said to give "bliss"), but "the source goodness behind anything positive in the Universe" is very nice. Thanks; it gave me another clarification. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 06:17, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
February 2016
editWelcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Tattva (Kashmir Shaivism). When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been corrected. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Kashmir Shaivism. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 14:47, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

Don't blank redirects
editPlease don't blank redirects, as you did at Lost My Mind. I don't know why you're presumably speaking at me when you didn't notify me at all that you were doing so. What song were you referring to? The Dillon Francis/Alison Wonderland collaboration that charted in maybe two countries? Sure, because it's a single, it's probably more notable than a Lily Allen album track, but "far more" popular is a bit of a stretch. You presumed in your summary that I, or somebody, would want to start an edit war with you. The only reason I would have reverted you is because you blanked a redirect without turning it into a disambiguation page, or repointing it somewhere else. To presume I am a "fanboi" of the artist whose album I redirected a title to is random and argumentative over nothing other than you seemingly taking offence that the redirect was not to whichever artist you meant. Your action was just weird and presumptious overall. Ss112 03:52, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
