Hello, JMccoy13, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits to the page Adult have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and has been or will be removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or in other media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. Additionally, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

WP:Original research, including WP:Synthesis

edit

Do not add WP:Synthesis to Wikipedia articles, like you did at the the Adult article. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 07:27, 20 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

More WP:Synthesis here. Keep this up and you will be reported and eventually WP:Blocked. Sating that boys "typically reach sexual maturity on average at the age of 13," for example, is purely your wording. And we do not refer to puberty as sexual maturity. Puberty is a process.

See Talk:Adult#Puberty material. Permalink here. Make your case there in that discussion section. Do not keep making WP:Edit warring. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 22:53, 20 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Next stop: Keep it up, and the next stop for you will be WP:ANI. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 04:04, 16 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Taken to WP:ANI, as promised. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 21:14, 16 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Editing restriction

edit

Hello, JMccoy, and welcome to Wikipedia. I've formally closed the ANI report with the resolution being your agreement to completely avoid the subject area of human development. This is considered to be a good faith dispute resolution measure on your part, so you get to retain your good standing and walk away as the good guy. For this reasonable gesture, I thank you. This agreement will not end at a certain date, but should you prove yourself to be a productive editor going forward, you can start a discussion at WP:AN asking for this arrangement to be voided. You may do this after our 'standard offer' period of six months. I unfortunately have to add that there is still a consensus to implement a formal ban from the subject area for three months, which has not and will not be implemented as long as the informal arrangement is not breached, so, if your agreement proves insincere, you will be considered banned from editing the subject area, and that situation is something that will be enforced with blocks and increased editing restrictions. Please let me know if you have any questions about the current situation, or about editing Wikipedia! Thanks again, Swarm 22:37, 24 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

JMccoy13, careful; with this edit at Alexander the Great, you are skating right up to the edge of your agreement. Adding Swarm. Mathglot (talk) 09:45, 3 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
