You have done some interesting work on this article. However, I was wondering what is the "current streak" for in List_of_world_number_one_snooker_players#Consecutive_-_Top_10? Betty Logan (talk) 10:42, 24 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

This material was from book published in 1846 (the link was added). Obviously (!), it is not subject to copyright. GorgonaJS (talk) 09:03, 8 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
The problem is that the prose is not a match for that found in the book. It does however match the prose at the above cited website. I am removing it again. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:46, 11 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

John Prendergast

edit

John Prendergast is a disambiguation page. As I mentioned in my edit summary (click "history" at the article to see edit summaries), MOS:DABENTRY specifies that each disambiguation entry should contain exactly one link, and (with certain rare exceptions that do not apply in this case) the link should be blue—that is, the link should be to an existing article.

Your edit has a couple of problems:

Finally, edit warring is prohibited. If the change is really wanted, despite the problems above, the issue needs to be discussed at the talk page (Talk:John Prendergast). Johnuniq (talk) 10:22, 20 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

November 2021

edit

  Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to The Beatles: Get Back, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you. Sundayclose (talk) 20:33, 27 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

I contemplated giving you a level three warning, which informs you that if you continue removing content you could lose your editing privileges. You removed information referenced to a New York Times article about the documentary series with the bizarre edit summary "not about the movie". You clearly did not read the NY Times article, or you didn't understand it. If it's not about Peter Jackson's documentary series, then what is it about??? You removed that content three times ([1], [2], [3]) without discussion on the talk page. That is slow-motion edit warring, which is an even worse policy violation than inappropriately removing legitimate content. So consider this a level 2.5 warning. If you remove the content again, you'll get a level 4 warning. After than you will be blocked. Sundayclose (talk) 20:57, 27 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
