Welcome!

Hello! I noticed your contributions to Van Halen (album) and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. You are welcome to edit anonymously; however, creating an account is free and has several benefits (for example, the ability to create pages, upload media and edit without one's IP address being visible to the public).

January 2021

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Power Rangers in Space, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page.

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history, and can help other Wikipedia editors understand why you made a certain edit. When editing an article there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" shown under the main edit box where you can justify anything you wish. —FORMALDUDE^(talk) 00:50, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

Unnecessary detail 2/8

Hello. I wanted to let you know that your recent edit(s) to the Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle plot summary have been removed because they added a significant amount of unnecessary detail. Please avoid excessive detail and high word counts when editing plot summaries/synopses. You may read the plot summary edit guides to learn more about contributing constructively to plot summaries/synopses. There are also specific guidelines for films, musicals, television episodes, anime/manga, novels and non-fiction books. 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. DonIago (talk) 16:53, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

• • You DID make a mistake. The Bigot Cops' and Extreme Sports Punks' arrests and the Police looking for the duo were part of the film's context. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.193.175.208 (talk) 21:24, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Actually, you made a mistake, which is to say you violated WP:FILMPLOT by adding text that made the word count for the summary exceed 700 words. Please refactor the plot to keep it under 700 words or get a consensus at the article's Talk page to disregard this guideline. DonIago (talk) 01:31, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

Unconstructive edits 2/19

Hi there! This is a humble notification to let you know that several of your recent contributions did not appear constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, please leave a message on my talk page. Nearly a quarter of your most recent 50 edits have been reverted because they were nonconstructive. While Wikipedia always encourages editors to be bold, it is vital that you are well aquented with our policies and guidelines. —FORMALDUDE^(talk) 07:11, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Impartial tone 2/19

I assume your edits are in good faith but please ask that you do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Steve Braun (actor). Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Wikipedia is not subjective. A polite reminder that a thorough edit summary explaining the reasoning behind your edit(s) will greatly decrease the risk of your edits being automatically reverted and allow further discussion on the edit (likey via the article's talk page.) —FORMALDUDE^(talk) 08:15, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

April 2021

Please stop your disruptive editing. This is your 3rd attempt at adding incorrect information to the plot section of Bad Boys for Life, along with other unnecessary changes.

• Discuss article content disputes with the involved editor at their talk page or begin a new discussion at 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.

However, do not continue to disrupt Wikipedia. Doing so could result in being blocked from editing. --GoneIn60 (talk) 03:21, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I'm SunDawn. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to The Resident (TV series)—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. SunDawn (talk) 03:57, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

Please do not add or significantly change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did with this edit to The Resident (TV series). 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. Trains2050 (talk) 04:03, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

May 2021

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Selena: The Series. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please 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, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. — YoungForever^(talk) 13:49, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

June 2021

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you make unexplained changes to information on Wikipedia. You [rarely ever] use an edit summary. Please always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short edit summary is better than nothing, and summaries are vital for potentially controversial and subjective edits. —FORMALDUDE^(talk) 01:21, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

• • My mistake. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.193.175.208 (talk) 19:40, 16 June 2021 (UTC)

Remember to sign your comments on talk pages

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. —FORMALDUDE^(talk) 20:27, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
