You are welcome to continue editing articles without logging in, but you may wish to create an account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits. If you edit without a username, your IP address (142.241.254.68) is used to identify you instead.
In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your comments on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place {{helpme}}
before the question on this page. Again, welcome! John Vandenberg (chat) 02:09, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Queen's University. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. In the Queen’s University article, you removed a template the purpose of which is to indicate that the statement given requires a verifiable reference/citation. At Wikipedia, once such a template is added to an article, it is considered inappropriate to remove it before a verifiable reference/citation is provided to replace it. — SpikeToronto (talk) 18:57, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

editThis is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification (UEFA), you may be blocked from editing without further notice. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 16:41, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
- If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address. |
