December 2019
[edit] Hello, I'm Optakeover. I noticed that in this edit to Independent Media Center, 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. Optakeover(U)(T)(C) 17:51, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Independent Media Center. Your edits appear to be 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. Optakeover(U)(T)(C) 18:16, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
Please stop adding inappropriate images to Wikipedia, as you did to Periodic table. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Dumping multiple files into a gallery in an article is contrary to guidance given. Please see WP:IG. Velella Velella Talk 19:21, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at London, you may be blocked from editing. Gareth Griffith-Jones (contribs) (talk) 10:41, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
You seem lost
[edit]I've looked at many of your edits and you seem lost. Various editors have either deleted or modified nearly every edit you have made. I urge you to read the welcome message at the top of this talk page, where you will find links to many Wikipedia help pages. Please also read Help:Referencing for beginners, MOS:IMAGES and WP:EL. Thanks for your cooperation. Magnolia677 (talk) 11:36, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
Thanks for the edits to The Signpost
[edit]Hi Kroger4,
Thanks for the edits to the News & notes section of the forthcoming issue of The Signpost. I'm the editor-in-chief of The Signpost and should explain how adding content and editing works on our newspaper, a special WikiProject that has some of its own rules. Everybody is invited to contribute to The Signpost within those rules. First please introduce yourself at the Newsroom talk page to see what writing or editing we need. Then realize that more experienced Signposters will edit your work and ultimately the editor-in-chief decides what to include. There is a deadline, so we don't have the luxury of taking the time to argue, we just decide what's best. Usually, new editors will make a suggestion at the Suggestion page or a submit a full draft at the Submissions page.
I'll keep the section heading that you added at N&n, and remove the gallery you added (we don't have galleries usually in N&n. If you'd like you can go to the Newsroom and start copyediting for grammer, spelling, etc. on the articles marked "ready for copyediting". I look forward to getting you better introduced to the system for next month's issue at the end of May.
Thanks again.
Sincerely,

BLP problems
[edit] This is your only warning; if you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory content into an article or any other Wikipedia page again, as you did at Bill Gates , you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Kuru (talk) 00:40, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
- In happy to label it POV criticism, but it is not defamatory content. Biographies should include some criticism not be biased, whitewashed, fanboy.
My other posting about him is here: https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Bill_Gates Kroger4 (talk) 09:03, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
- I'm sure you would be happy to label it as "POV criticism." It is, however, straight up conspiracy theory nonsense about controlled breeding programs, eugenics, and anti-vaxx drivel. This is not Facebook; this material is antithetical to Wikipedia's purpose. If you are unable to tell the difference, please refrain from editing biographies. Kuru (talk) 13:19, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
June 2020
[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 noticeboards.
- 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, you may be blocked from editing. This includes edit-warring, continued WP:BLP violations, and external-link problems. DMacks (talk) 15:46, 3 June 2020 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for July 17
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Orford Ness, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Urbex (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar 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) 06:21, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
August 2020
[edit] Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your image was inserted successfully on the page Iowa, but because it appeared to be irrelevant to the article or violated the image use policy, it has been reverted or removed. Please use your sandbox for any tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. It had no caption, was not contextually placed to anything damage related. Gwen Hope (talk) (contrib) 06:43, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
Vandalism
[edit]Please don't just make stuff up as you did at Jägermeister. It's vandalism. It's also a bit sneaky of you to add a fake reference. nagualdesign 21:57, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
November 2020
[edit] Hello, I'm Chlod. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added to Typhoon Goni (2020) have been removed because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Chlod (say hi!) 10:42, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
