  Hello, I'm The Banner. Your recent edit(s) to the page Marc Van Ranst appear to have added incorrect information, so they have been removed for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. 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. The Banner talk 20:58, 12 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Stammheim Prison. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. The Banner talk 21:00, 12 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Ton Steine Scherben, you may be blocked from editing. The Banner talk 21:01, 12 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Marc Van Ranst. We follow the sources, not your opinion The Banner talk 12:22, 13 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Please familiarize yourself with the proper use of the parameter |name= in infoboxes. In the case of your repeated edits at Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, that's Template:Infobox writer where it says: "Insert name of the person. Use the common name, typically name of article. If omitted it defaults to the name of the article". FYI, the parameter where Goethe's bürgerlicher name is mentioned is |birth_name=. The bold headword also uses the subject's commonly used name, as shown in the article title. The finer points of ennoblement and other name changes are to be covered in the article. If you revert my correction again, it may be considered disruptive editing and may get you blocked. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 13:48, 13 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
