Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Merkel-Raute may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

Gamergate notification

[edit]
This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to, (a) GamerGate, (b) any gender-related dispute or controversy, (c) people associated with (a) or (b), all broadly construed, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Frankfurt School. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  2. 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 engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Liz Read! Talk! 16:07, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You think something needs to be changed.

[edit]

That's great. However, you shouldn't just go ahead with removing information. It would be best if you instead worked out your proposal and introduced it to other editors on a talk page. That may not always get you what you want, but it is better than back-and-forth reverting, and it is far less likely to get you blocked. Dustin (talk) 16:08, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Echo Fox, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Kirby. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Please stop edit warring on Tyranny of small decisions. You have been repeatedly asked to apply some thought to the change you keep trying to enforce in this article, given that it is not appropriate in the context where you are making it. If you actually read what the article talks about just before the quaint change you keep attempting to make, you will see the article is giving examples of "independent pin prick decisions". You mechanically keep reinserting your "canals, villages and roads", because, from the guideline you refer to, you apparently think you have found a more formal tone, and anything more formal is better. Well there are plenty of other considerations which are equally or more important in writing Wikipedia articles, such as actually illustrating what is being talked about instead of trying to substitute an inappropriate list because it satisfies your sense of what you think is more "formal". That is not improving Wikipedia – it is vandalising it. — Epipelagic (talk) 07:55, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm putting it inside the rules. If you don't like it, then improve it instead of making it outside the rules again. e (talk) 13:31, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
What "rules" are you talking about? You have mentioned, and only in a general way, some explanatory essay about a Wikipedia guideline. That essay does not in any way support the garbled rewrite you are trying to perpetrate. Your rewrite damages the article by failing to get the point it is meant to illustrate.
In any case, you should read the Wikipedia policy about policies and guidelines, where it says: "Although Wikipedia generally does not employ hard-and-fast rules, Wikipedia's policy and guideline pages describe its principles and agreed-upon best practices. Policies are standards all users should normally follow, and guidelines are generally meant to be best practices for following those standards in specific contexts. Policies and guidelines should always be applied using reason and common sense."
Specifically, what "rules" do you imagine you are referring to. Given the context, there is no rule that covers the change you are trying to make – your reference to "formal tone" is nonsense. – Epipelagic (talk) 15:10, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've protected the page for 10 days. I strongly suggest you take it to the talk page. If the edit warning continues, further sanctions may be applied, such as blocking. - jc37 17:54, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
