You are welcome to continue editing without logging in, but many editors recommend that you create an account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits such as the ability to create articles. For a full outline and explanation of the benefits that come with creating an account, please see this page. If you edit without a username, your IP address (180.149.192.139) 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!

Hello, I'm Darkwind. I wanted to let you know that I undid one of your recent contributions, such as the one you made to this edit to Safe harbor (commerce), because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks, —Darkwind (talk) 04:08, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
Blocked
editI wouldn't normally do this, but given the high-profile nature of the articles, I have blocked you for 48 hours for failing to adhere to a neutral point of view and adding controversial material not supported by the sources. I will gladly unblock you if you agree to discuss Crimea-related edits on talk pages before making them from now on, but I hope you can understand the need to quickly address the problem in order to kep the pages open for editing.

Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Running of the Bulls, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. "Sunbull" (or "Sun bull") doesn't appear to be a valid term, with 0 Google hits related to actual bulls. Please reply to this message if you have any questions or concerns. CrunchySkies (talk) 09:20, 21 July 2014 (UTC)

Please do not delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at Talk:Emu War. Such edits are disruptive and appear to be vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Andy Dingley (talk) 21:48, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Gerling has been reverted.
Your edit here to Gerling was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://bernsteinstudios.wordpress.com) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 01:11, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
