Welcome!
[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Simplified Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

[edit] Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Line of succession to the Japanese throne. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. 10:36, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Iñaki Salazar: This is not vandalism. This is consistency with other line of succession articles and it is not unconstructive. To reflect a line of succession in a given past year, it makes no sense mentioning death years after that. You may disagree with me, and that's fine, but dubbing this as vandalism without further evidence is rude. Anotherwikipedianuser (talk) 11:56, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
British royalty
[edit]Would you please stop making unnecessary edits to British royal bio articles. GoodDay (talk) 00:02, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
Please do not introduce unnecessary pipes. You may read why that is unhelpful at WP:NOPIPE and WP:NOTBROKEN. Also, please do not mark your edits as minor. Surtsicna (talk) 00:04, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
Please also read WP:COMMONNAME. We use what reliable sources use, and almost all call Henry, Harry. If you want to change the name of his article, please visit its talk page. 331dot (talk) 09:10, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
- @331dot: I already stated my opinion on the issue there. Option B is already the most supported one. Anotherwikipedianuser (talk) 09:20, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
- I'm not sure I agree with the assessment that it is the "most supported one", but in any event, you should hold off on making those changes until there is consensus for what you want to do. Until then, we go with existing Wikipedia guidelines(WP:COMMONNAME) and what reliable sources use, which is Harry. 331dot (talk) 09:28, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

[edit] Hello, I'm Abelmoschus Esculentus. Your recent edit to Template:Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex appears to have added incorrect information, so I removed it for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Abelmoschus Esculentus (talk to me) 09:02, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
Princess Eugenie.
[edit]Howdy. Aren't you jumping the gun, with all the changes you've been making, concerning Princess Eugenie? GoodDay (talk) 19:29, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
- @GoodDay: Hi. I don't think so, because the reliable source that was required in Princess Eugenie's article is already available, and it confirms what the new title was thought to be. I don't think it is controversial, so I took the liberty. Hope you don't mind. Anotherwikipedianuser (talk) 19:33, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

[edit] Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, you may be blocked from editing. Theroadislong (talk) 19:53, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Theroadislong (talk) 19:54, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
- @Theroadislong: Hey, this is not vandalism. If you don't agree, please discuss it, I'm open to it; don't jump to block threats. Anotherwikipedianuser (talk) 20:01, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
- Then please discuss on the relevant talk pages first. Theroadislong (talk) 20:03, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
- @Theroadislong: What about Wikipedia:Be bold? Anotherwikipedianuser (talk) 20:06, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
- Yes you are correct, you were BOLD, I reverted, now you discuss as per WP:BRD, thank you. Theroadislong (talk)

Lady Louise Windsor
[edit]Please do not revert this edit again without discussing it on the talk page. Bookworm857158367 (talk) 19:22, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
April 2018
[edit] Hello, six days ago you undid my March 28 revision of Alexander Windsor, Earl of Ulster and added a previously removed coat of arms. That coat of arms is most certainly a complete fabrication of rather skilled user's imagination, but more importantly, it is also unsourced. Furthermore, considering the present Earl of Ulster is very much alive, the inclusion of a ficticious crest goes against the standards this site has concerning the living. Lastly, as with any scarcely known figure, the Earl of Ulster's Wikipedia page is the only source of information most people will have access to as far as he's concerned, so I believe we should be careful regarding the material we include and pass off as fact. On the other hand, if you are able to source the disputed material, please let us know in the Talk section of the article, besides actually citing the source obviously. Thank you.

DYK for Edward Windsor, Lord Downpatrick
[edit]On 30 April 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Edward Windsor, Lord Downpatrick, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the fashion designer Edward Windsor, Lord Downpatrick (pictured) is the closest relative of Queen Elizabeth II who cannot succeed to the British throne because of conversion to Catholicism? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Edward Windsor, Lord Downpatrick. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Edward Windsor, Lord Downpatrick), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

NZ
[edit]Howdy. It appears a certain editor over at List of dignitaries at the state funeral of Elizabeth II, is refusing to accept that New Zealand deserves its own section. IMHO, his behaviour is reaching disruption territory, as he doesn't have a consensus for the changes he wants. GoodDay (talk) 17:45, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
Situation is worsening. He's now opened up a competing, confusing, PoV-based RFC. GoodDay (talk) 20:10, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
- @GoodDay and Peter Ormond: It's crystal clear that this disruptive user only wants to disrupt, really. That silly RFC must be shut down ASAP and the relevant sections reverted to this version. Let's not feed the troll. Anotherwikipedianuser (talk) 01:14, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
- I've contacted Wikipedia:Requests for comment's talkpage, concerning his confusing RFC. I'm still perplexed by his opposing NZ having a separate section & then giving Saint Lucia a separate section (I've since reverted) & then going on about 'racism'. I mean, Papua New Guinea used to be under Australia's control, not New Zealand's. Also, he keeps deliberately calling me "Good Day", rather then "GoodDay" & using 1947 as NZ independence year, when I've already (at least twice) told him its 1907. At this point, I'm suspecting he's a ban evading editor. GoodDay (talk) 01:25, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
He's still being a pest. It appears it doesn't matter if NZ get its own section or not. He's going to mess around with its entry in the article, no matter what. GoodDay (talk) 01:04, 27 September 2022 (UTC)
- @GoodDay: It's definitely a troll. Anotherwikipedianuser (talk) 14:24, 27 September 2022 (UTC)
