Wikilinks[edit]

Hi! I can see what you're trying to do, but Wikipedia links don't work like that. Please don't add any more until you understand things better.

If you want to link to another Wikipedia article with visible text that's different from the article title, it looks like this: [[article title|text]]. If you want to link to an external web page, look up WP:CITE for the {{cite web}} tag (but read WP:SPAM first). Philip Trueman (talk) 17:38, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please read WP:NOTVAND[edit]

One or more edits you labelled as vandalism , such as the edit at Groton School, are not considered vandalism under Wikipedia guidelines. Wikipedia has a stricter definition of the word than common usage, and labeling edits as vandalism when they do not fall under Wikipedia's definition is considered bad practice. Please read Wikipedia:NOTVAND for more information on what is and is not considered vandalism. Thank you. - SudoGhost™ 01:29, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. - SudoGhost™ 03:28, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect formatting[edit]

Your recent edit at Groton School is not formatted correctly. It appears you copy-pasted the information, as it currently reads, "Student Academy Awards nominee[3]." In lieu of simply removing it, I'm asking that you please fix this by replacing the [3] with the source you provided on my talk page, as well as the original one. Also, as he is notable at the school for other things, I suggest you update this, being a nominee for the Student Academy Awards alone is not notable, as he was one of a dozen students in that category alone. - SudoGhost™ 03:58, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I went ahead and reverted it, if you can correct the issues above, please do so. - SudoGhost™ 04:21, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for correcting the information and formatting. - SudoGhost™ 05:00, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

January 2014[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Groton School, but we cannot accept original research.

Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. You must provide notability of individual per Wikipedia guidelines with reputable sources. -- Winkelvi ● ✉ ✓ 04:43, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
