User talk:213.240.254.19
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, such as the ones you made to Rocky III. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.
Here are some links to pages you may find useful:
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- Simplified Manual of Style
You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:
- Create new pages and rename pages
- Edit semi-protected pages
- Upload images
- Have your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed
Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a certain number of days and made a certain number of edits.
If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (213.240.254.19) is used to identify you instead.
I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).
Happy editing! JesseRafe (talk) 12:20, 15 October 2018 (UTC)

[edit] Hello, I'm ToBeFree. I noticed that in this edit to A Man Will Rise, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. 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. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 15:00, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, 213.240.254.19. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Editor's index to Wikipedia
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.
Again, welcome! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:13, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

[edit] Please stop your disruptive editing.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Cop Land, you may be blocked from editing. The Old JacobiteThe '45 16:14, 19 October 2018 (UTC)

- Hi TheOldJacobite
- This message has caused a confused call for help to be added to my talk page, at User_talk:ToBeFree#Part_2. I think it would be helpful if you could
- link to the specific edit you're complaining about, and take a moment to explain in easy English why,
- provide reasons when undoing edits, instead of using the "VANDAL" button of Twinkle for good-faith contributions?
- Looking at Special:UserRights/TheOldJacobite seems to indicate that this has been an repeated issue since 2009.
- Thanks! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:22, 19 October 2018 (UTC)
The repeated addition of the same incorrect content cannot be construed as good faith. The names in the cast list are as credited, which is clearly stated in a hidden comment at the top of the section. Having to repeatedly remove incorrect information is tedious, especially when it's the same user who repeatedly adds it. At what point would you call it vandalism? ---The Old JacobiteThe '45 00:40, 20 October 2018 (UTC)
- I am unsure about the "same user" statement; the IP addresses 83.228.19.233 and 213.240.254.19 appear to be coming from multiple different internet providers of Bulgaria. 2605:e000:248f:4a00:dcb9:1202:27fa:995 appears to be coming from the United States. The specific IP here has only edited the article once. I think that there may be a common misconception, and that multiple people are trying to fix what they believe to be an error. It may be reasonable to request page protection if the issue is persistent.
- About vandalism, I do see that you have not used a "vandalism" warning, and "disruptive" does seem to be a good description. In this specific case, there seems to have been an issue with an unreliable source. The "uw-unsourced-1" or "uw-unsourced-2" templates may be useful here, with a short manual explanation that "a third-party product sold via Amazon is not a reliable source for a statement that is better sourced by the movie credits themselves."
- The following edits seem to have been made in good faith: Example 1, Example 2.
- I think that the HTML comment solution at Special:Diff/864863849 is a very good idea. Maybe it should also contain a short explanation how to verify this (movie credits at minute X? Manual of Style section?), to prevent skeptical users from replacing it by an unreliable reference.
- Have a nice day, you two.
