Punctuation and references

edit

I have undone your changes to His Dark Materials. You may want to read MOS:REFPUNCT. Bazza (talk) 15:43, 9 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

I have made punctatuation and the information I changed was correct, I will simply undo your undo and if you so wish you can add the correct ounctuation yourself. The release date is correct and the article is a verifiable source as far as im concerned Kala7992 (talk) 15:46, 9 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
You moved the references before the punctuation, which is against the requirement at MOS:REFPUNCT. Note that edit warring (which is what you will be doing if you reinstate your edits, can get you blocked. You should continue to do what you have started here and discuss the issues on the article's talk page. Bazza (talk) 15:51, 9 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
I dont understand what your issue is, why should the new release date not be there if its been publically announced? Since you're so much better at editing than I am, why cant you correct whatever simple mistake ive made, ive literally done most of the work by providing the article title, link and dates associated with it Kala7992 (talk) 15:54, 9 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
You moved references inside punctuation, which contravenes MOS:REFPUNCT. And your specific dates contravene WP:CRYSTALBALL, in particular Dates are not definite until the event actually takes place. I see you are a new user, so might want to step back from being so confrontational and have a read of WP:BRD. You may get a formal welcome from someone else later, which will also point you to some good guidance for editing. Meanwhile, if you are certain that the date must be included in the opening paragraphs of the article, then you will need to discuss it on the article's talk page before editing further.

I have started the discussion I mentioned above. Bazza (talk) 16:06, 9 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
The article should be as you originally intended, I dont have time to fuss over this anymore Kala7992 (talk) 16:09, 9 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

You have been blocked from editing from certain pages (Adam Levine) for a period of 48 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  331dot (talk) 11:12, 10 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
I was on my way here to implement a site-wide block for a longer period. I will not modify 331dot's block, but be warned that if you make any more personal attacks on any editors, you will be blocked from editing across the project. WP:NPA is policy, and it is not limited to profane abuse - I'd strongly advise you to read it. Girth Summit (blether) 11:14, 10 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
I apologize for the use of profanity, that will cease to happen from now on. I am done with Adam Levine's page and have been blocked anyways. Hopefully I can move on without this affecting my ability to edit non-controversial articles without violating any policy Kala7992 (talk) 11:16, 10 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
Like I said, it's not just profanities that are forbidden - you may not use insults of any kind, even calling someone a loser or similar is a violation of that policy. I strongly urge all new editors to read it and take it to heart - it is enforced vigorously. Girth Summit (blether) 12:55, 10 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on List of biggest box-office bombs. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. - wolf 19:39, 17 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Added note
if you realized the amount of work Betty Logan has put into that article, both building and maintaining it, you'd realize how foolish you look calling them "stupid" and "biased" (which is an WP:NPA vio, something you were specifically warned about after your last edit-warring block). The wisest course of action for you now would be to apologize for those remarks, desist from further edit-warring, and engage others on the article talk page about your concerns, or just let it be and move on.

i didnt call Betty Logan "stupid" but her reasoning, it is a confirmed fact that Shazam 2 is a bomb and bombed harder than many other entries on the list, i challenged the logic of that decision, i refuse to apologize Kala7992 (talk) 19:56, 17 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
The apology is between you and Betty Logan. The edit warring is now between you and whichever admin handles the AN/EW report. - wolf 20:18, 17 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

@PhilKnight can you at least just block me from editing that particular article without a general edit ban? Kala7992 (talk) 20:24, 17 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
Okay, you are blocked from List of biggest box-office bombs for a month, but are free to edit the talk page and other articles. PhilKnight (talk) 20:28, 17 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Frank Grillo, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Black Lotus. 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.)

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to List of Illumination productions, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history, as well as helping prevent edit conflicts. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the page will look like without actually saving it.

 
The Show preview button is right next to the Publish changes button and below the edit summary field.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Thank you. Indagate (talk) 12:42, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

My bad I didn't know about this feature Kala7992 (talk) 13:22, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
 

Your recent editing history at The Boys season 4 shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. -- Alex_21 TALK 08:55, 18 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

User 120.61.22.222 is edit-warring and has reverted users' edits and removed the citations over 3 times, please can you block him? That user is simply removing the correct info about the new episode's title change proven with sources and the episode title listing on Prime Video Kala7992 (talk) 18:02, 18 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
I am not an admin, I do not block other editors. I simply warned you, as you performed three reverts within 24-hours (which were related to my own edits), meaning you were potentially close to violating WP:3RR. If you want to report an editor for edit-warring, you need to visit WP:AN3. -- Alex_21 TALK 00:08, 19 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
