Greetings! Welcome to my Wikimedia Commons user page. I mostly upload historical artwork, literature, and photographs related to Sikhism and Punjab.

About me

[edit]

Background

[edit]
   I have been a long-time reader and lurker of Wikipedia for decades now but only decided to sign-up and start contributing myself only relatively recently. 
  Originally, I was dismayed by the lack of access, availability, and documentation to & of artistic and photographic material related to Sikh and Punjabi history, culture, and society. Rather than let that remain the case, I decided to make a difference rather than remaining idle. I have uploaded over 4,000 images so-far and have only scratched the surface. Feel free to browse my uploads to see them.

Disputes

[edit]

I prefer productive and fruitful dialogue in the event of a dispute between myself and another fellow editor. I do not like drama or conflict and will avoid it if possible. I will never personally insult you and I expect the same conduct from your behalf as well. Remember that we both have more in common with each-other than differences: we just want to make Wikipedia the best and most informative cyber resource it can be!

Mistakes

[edit]

I am not perfect and do not claim to be so. If I have made a mistake anywhere in my activities, please do not shy away from alerting me on my talk page so that I may correct myself and note down my error to avert further future mishappenings.

Goals and ideas

[edit]
  • upload more historical artwork depicting Sikh and Punjabi personalities (especially of women)
  • upload more historical literature of interest
  • upload more historical photographs of Sikh and Punjabi heritage sites before they were renovated and lost their original appearance
  • learn how to make images of historical flags in svg file form

Feel free to reach out to me if you would like to collaborate with me on accomplishing the above goals.
