Editing another user's userpage
[edit]Hello there. You, about a month ago, made this edit to User:GoldRingChip. It seems the user didn't really care, but it's normally not well received to edit another user's page, and some users like myself consider it borderline vandalism. I know this was just an innocent correction, but you should refrain from doing similar edits in the future. Just a warning. –TCN7JM 23:44, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for August 18
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Maine State Route 125, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Delorme. 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.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:26, 18 August 2016 (UTC)

Unblock
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Appointment_red.svg/48px-Appointment_red.svg.png)
I love the interweb! (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. I love the interweb! - Talk 10:18, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
Decline reason:
I'm afraid we can't do anything about a block on an IP address unless you tell us what IP address it is. Please post a new unblock request giving us that information, which will be given in the message you see when you try to edit. Alternatively, if for any reason you prefer not to make your IP address publicly visible, you can request an unblock through the Unblock Ticket Request System. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 10:54, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
- Sorry about that; I completely forgot. I have since moved to a different router anyway, so this should no longer be an issue. I love the interweb! - Talk 19:06, 4 July 2018 (UTC)

[edit]Edit summaries
[edit]Please remember to use edit summaries for all edits. It's important to use them so that other editors can understand what changes you're making; that's especially true when you're making large numbers of edits. If you wish, you can go to Special:Preferences, click the "Editing" tab, and enable "Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary". Thanks, Pi.1415926535 (talk) 05:52, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Pi.1415926535: Thanks for your note! I had made these edits through the mobile app "add/edit article description feature," which doesn't allow for an edit summary. I had falsely assumed that it would leave some sort of automated summary rather than none at all. I guess I'll be doing such edits through the normal editor in the future. I love the interweb! - Talk 13:57, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
- Ugh, that's very frustrating that the app doesn't allow for edit summaries with those edits. I've started a thread here. Thanks for being willing to change your workflow. Cheers, Pi.1415926535 (talk) 19:20, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
