May 2017[edit]

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! Dawnseeker2000 21:07, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Yanko Daucik[edit]

Please, if you're going to help around here, please do not leave the articles in unreadable condition as you did to Yanko Daucik. Thanks, and if you have any questions you can ask me on my talk page. Dawnseeker2000 21:11, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

March 2018[edit]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to École Jeannine Manuel. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. GorillaWarfare (talk) 21:35, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Paris, you may be blocked from editing. GorillaWarfare (talk) 21:35, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

September 2018[edit]

Hello, I'm Darsana.vinod. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Conn Iggulden, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Darsana.vinod (talk) 11:46, 30 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

November 2018[edit]

Hello, I'm Oshwah. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to John Magorrian seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 20:45, 16 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Backhouse rule (February 8)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Boothsift was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

No references provided

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Backhouse rule and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Backhouse rule, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

October 2021[edit]

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Gilbert Granville Sharp, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so!

November 2022[edit]

Hello, I'm Tacyarg. I noticed that you recently removed content from Anis Shorrosh without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

October 2023[edit]

Hello, I'm AntiDionysius. I noticed that you changed the personal pronouns of an individual in one of your recent edits. Wikipedia refers to all people, including transgender and nonbinary people, by the pronouns they have most recently requested for themselves; this applies to all phases of their lives, unless they have requested otherwise. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. AntiDionysius (talk) 20:14, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not change the personal pronouns of individuals in articles. Wikipedia refers to all people, including transgender and nonbinary people, by the pronouns they have most recently requested for themselves; this applies to all phases of their lives, unless they have requested otherwise. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted; repeatedly adding incorrect pronouns may result in a loss of editing privileges. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. --AntiDionysius (talk) 20:15, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to introduce incorrect pronouns into an article, you may be blocked from editing.
