Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Donner60 (talk) 01:35, 5 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Recent edit to Person of color

edit

  Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits as you did to Person of color. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you are given a good deal of freedom in what you write. Thank you!  ΤheQ Editor  Talk? 12:41, 26 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. Your recent edit to Bataan Death March appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.

  Hello, I'm Rklawton. I noticed that you recently removed content from Joseph Dunford without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please do not remove sourced information - especially when based on a flawed understanding of the U.S. military. Rklawton (talk) 17:35, 22 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did on Alisson (footballer, born 1992). This violates Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Mattythewhite (talk) 20:47, 26 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Question about trolling

edit

@Bonadea:, can you please explain how warning someone for making 3 reverts in a little over 3 hours while not explaining what is wrong with the edits they are reverting is trolling? 155.178.180.12 (talk) 14:37, 15 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Serial Number 54129. An edit that you recently made to User:Jimbo Wales seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want to practice editing, please use the sandbox.

@Serial Number 54129:. My edit to remove one unnecessary word from the sentence was not a test, it was an improvement to the sentence. Since I have already told you that on your user talk page I don't understand why you are now calling it a test edit. 155.178.180.12 (talk) 15:21, 15 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:Bethesda-Chevy Chase Rescue Squad

Hello, 155.178.180.12. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Bethesda-Chevy Chase Rescue Squad".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
