ELECTROHOMOEOPATHY
[edit]DEAR SIR, UPDATE INFORMATION ABOUT ELECTROPATHY
THERE IS NO BAN IN PRACTICE OF ELECTROPATHY IN INDIA. RAJASTHAN GOVT. (INDIA) HAS PASSED LEGISLATION IN 2018. ELECTROPATHY IS NOT QUICKERY — Preceding unsigned comment added by RAMESHKUMAR07021977 (talk • contribs) 13:05, 3 July 2020 (UTC) :

Joke/Phrase of the day
[edit]For those who either watchlists my talk page or just came across it, I have just updated my "Joke/Phrase of the day" section, which I try to regularly post here, with one simple reason: to make you smile.
The phrase that’ll be least likely to be used right now?
- That went viral
OK, one more:
Two students, John and James, took a quiz on which phrase is better, had or had had.
- James, while John had had had, had had had had. Had had had had a better effect on the teacher.

Hurrem's contemporaries describe her as a woman who was strikingly good-looking, and different from everybody else because of her gorgeous red hair. Hurrem was also intelligent and had a sparkling personality. She loved poetry very much and that is considered as one of the reasons behind her being heavily favoured by Suleiman, who was a known admirer of poetry.
Prominent Ukranian writer Pavlo Zahrebelny describes Hurrem as "an intelligent, kind, understanding, openhearted, candied, talented, generous, emotional and grateful woman who cares about the soul rather than the body; who is not carried away with ordinary glimmers such as money, prone to science and art; in short, a perfect woman."

[edit]Hi,
I just made a few edits which you changed, I wasn't experimenting. You left a message that if I think you made a mistake, leave a message on your Talk page. I'm a new contributor on Wikipedia, but the edits I do are after checking them, kindly don't revert them without verifying. UphillAthlete (talk) 19:09, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
Also while Undoing my edits, you also removed the information I added with citations, kindly have the courtesy to add that information, in good faith. I respect your contribution, but please understand that I invested time on the topic, which is gone in vain now. :( I hope you understand that my edits were genuine contributions to Wikipedia. UphillAthlete (talk) 19:13, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
- UphillAthlete, I did not say that you were experimenting, instead, I said that if you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. But more importantly, I wanted to notify you that you had removed content from List of Mount Everest records of India without adequately explaining why, and that in the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. Cheers! --VisioncurveTimendi causa est nescire 19:17, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

I'm sorry to have responded so slowly to your message; I wasn't even editing Wiki for a while as I was a bit occupied with other things. But please, rest assured that as soon as I fix those things, I will certainly help you out with the aforementioned template. It's a privilege to take part in this kind of endeavor.

According to some sources, one of the wives of Muhammad Shaybani Khan, Aisha Sultan Khanum, better known as Moghul Khanum, enjoyed great influence on her husband and his court. The sources say that at the Kengesh (council of the Khan), question arouse whether or not to come out of Merv and fight the retreating troops of Shah Ismail. The emirs of Shaybani Khan suggested waiting two or three days until the auxiliary forces arrive from Mawarannahr. But the beloved wife of Muhammad Shaybani, Mogul Khanum, who took part in the military council, said to the Khan: “And you are afraid of the Qizilbash! If you are afraid, I will take the troops myself and lead them. Now is the right moment, there will be no such moment again." After these words of Mogul Khanum, everyone seemed to be ashamed, and the Khan's troops went into battle, which resulted in their complete defeat and the death of Shaybani Khan.
