October 2016[edit]

Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Spacecowboy420 (talk) 07:01, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

1. Comparison with Received Pronunciation was already there in Indian English, see the 5th point of section 2.1 Vowels. That's one of the source itself. And not all, but few Indians do speak with an accent similar(not exact same) to the RP.

2. Although RP refers to Standard British Accent, it's use is Britain is minimal now. RP is used by 2-3% people in Britain. For source, see section 2.1 Regional in British English and section 1. History in Received Pronunciation.

3. The contents I've been restoring stated about the relation between "Few Indians" and the "Received Pronunciation", not "British English" as a whole.

Thank you Spacecowboy420 (talk).
