To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put

editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Pecorino di Filiano, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Castelgrande. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

editPlease do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Alice in Chains. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Mlpearc (open channel) 19:55, 5 April 2015 (UTC)
David Rhodes
editI've given you my reason (twice) for removing the mentions of the Italian artists you are inserting in the article. Rhodes has appeared on dozens or hundreds of albums, and we should only write about ones where sources indicate they are more notable than others (like Peter Gabriel). You also removed my improvements to your other text. He did not compose the "soundtrack", he composed the score. Please discuss these changes on Talk:David Rhodes (guitarist) before making them again. --Laser brain (talk) 14:05, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Summary line
editHello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
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.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! Iñaki LL (talk) 15:17, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
DYK nomination of Isabella di Morra
editHello! Your submission of Isabella di Morra at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified.

- Generale Lee, I'm sorry that the recent expansion starting in January wasn't sufficient or new enough; at that starting size (6065 prose characters), it's extremely difficult to achieve a five-times expansion. (You slightly more than doubled the article size: 12684 prose characters at last count.) The only other route for eligibility at DYK at this point is for the article to be listed as a Good Article (GA). Should you ever decide to attempt to have the article reviewed to see if it might be a Good Article—these are the criteria—and it is listed as a GA, you can then submit it again to DYK within seven days of passage; instructions are at WP:GANI. (It can take up to several months to get an article reviewed these days, unfortunately.) Best of luck, and I hope you'll be submitting future new articles and expanded articles to DYK: just remember that the nomination needs to be made within seven days of creation or the start of the expansion.

Hi. I have reverted an edit of yours on this article, and would like to remind you about WP:BRD. When your Bold edit has been Reverted by another editor, the recommended next step, if you continue to think the edit is necessary, is to Discuss the dispute on the article talk page with other editors, but not to re-revert it, which is the first step to edit warring, a disruptive activity which is not allowed.

editHello. Some of your recent genre changes, such as the one you made to Wild Frontier, have conflicted with our neutral point of view and/or verifiability policies. While we invite all users to contribute constructively to Wikipedia, we urge all editors to provide reliable sources for edits made. When others disagree, we recommend you seek consensus for certain edits by discussing the matter on the article's talk page. Thank you. Doctorhawkes (talk) 09:54, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Tumacë me tulë, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Albanian. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Source not adding up for me....
editHi mate,
Saw that you added this on the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Vitus_(band) wiki page.
"The Wino years marked a change in their style, featuring a slower and darker sound, in contrast to the hardcore influences of the first two records with Reagers, and the band started to gain a cult following in Europe."
I took a look at the source provided but wasn't able to find where it says that they got a cult following, I didn't revert it so you can have a look at it and improve it if you wish to.
Regards,
James --James Richards (talk) 07:45, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

editThanks for uploading File:Mango - Australia.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:38, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
