File:Information.svg Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in :Basirhat, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Sumanuil. (talk to me) 21:30, 8 February 2025 (UTC)
:@Sumanuil Okay, thank you, as I'm contributing most of the information in Basirhat page, I'll try to maintain all sections chronologically, and also I'll correct all problems there in near future. It'll take time as I've to find all the problems in my article so yeah, thank you for reminding me about the info of manual style. Soham Bhattacharyya (talk) 21:50, 8 February 2025 (UTC)
File:Information.svg Hello Soham Bhattacharyya. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to :Madhushree Hatial, gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being employed (or being compensated in any way) by a person, group, company or organization to promote their interests. Paid advocacy on Wikipedia must be disclosed even if you have not specifically been asked to edit Wikipedia. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.
Paid advocates are strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Soham Bhattacharyya. The template {{tl|Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{tlc|paid|2=user=Soham Bhattacharyya|3=employer=InsertName|4=client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 21:54, 18 February 2025 (UTC)
:@Spiderone okay, please don't delete this, there are lots of verified links I can provide. Soham Bhattacharyya (talk) 22:05, 18 February 2025 (UTC)
:@Spiderone I, Soham Bhattacharyya, in accordance with the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use, disclose that I have been paid by Aman Gupta for my contributions to Madhushree Hatial article. I have strived to maintain a neutral point of view and adhere to Wikipedia's content policies. Soham Bhattacharyya (talk) 22:13, 18 February 2025 (UTC)
:@Spiderone == Paid editing disclosure and article improvements ==
:Hello everyone,
:I, Soham Bhattacharyya, have disclosed that I was compensated by Aman Gupta for my contributions to this article, in accordance with the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use. My goal is to improve the article by ensuring that the content is neutral, well-sourced, and verifiable.
:I recently added six references that I believe are reliable and relevant to the subject matter. I welcome any feedback regarding these sources or other aspects of the article. If there are any concerns, I am happy to discuss and address them in collaboration with the community.
:Thank you for your time and consideration.
:Best regards,

Managing a conflict of interest
File:Information.svg Hello, Soham Bhattacharyya. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page :Madhushree Hatial, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{tl|edit COI}} template), including links or details of reliable sources that support your suggestions;
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see {{Section link|Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI}});
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see {{Section link|Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming}});
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.{{#ifexpr: ({{#time: U | now}} - 1739915013) < 13150000 | {{PAGENAME}} | }} Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 21:43, 18 February 2025 (UTC)
:@Spiderone I, Soham Bhattacharyya, in accordance with the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use, disclose that I have been paid by Aman Gupta for my contributions to Madhushree Hatial article. I have strived to maintain a neutral point of view and adhere to Wikipedia's content policies. Soham Bhattacharyya (talk) 22:12, 18 February 2025 (UTC)
::Soham Bhattacharyya, the Madhushree Hatial article you created was blatantly promotional and has been deleted as such. You will need to have a draft approved for publication, but if you continue to create what amounts to a hagiography, it will again be deleted. The reason that we have paid editing and conflict of interest policies and guidelines is to prevent the creation of articles like the one I just deleted.-- Ponyobons mots 22:33, 18 February 2025 (UTC)

Nomination of [[:February 2025 West Bengal Hailstorms]] for deletion
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/February 2025 West Bengal Hailstorms until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.
:@Fram I added reliable sources from various national and regional news outlet websites. This event caused damage in several areas and disrupted railway services for hours. Now, the edit is done for me. If this article nominates for deletion then I'll respectfully admit that decision. Soham Bhattacharyya (talk) 16:39, 20 March 2025 (UTC)
:@Fram I would like to know about the decision regarding February 2025 West Bengal Hailstorms updates. Is it suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia or whether it should be deleted? I edited with all reliable sources. Soham Bhattacharyya (talk) 04:27, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
::I'm sorry, but these are all primary sources, describing the event when it happened, not sustained coverage in secondary sources. I see no reason to end the AfD discussion, which will decide if it gets deleted or not. Fram (talk) 08:29, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
:::@Fram Then it should be deleted probably. As there are not any secondary sources of this event such as analytics. Since you issued the AfD discussion, it should open which will decide if it gets deleted or not. Soham Bhattacharyya (talk) 10:22, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
:::@Fram The only secondary report is reference number 14 issued by Indian Meterological Department on this article. Soham Bhattacharyya (talk) 10:25, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
