April 2021

Hello. 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:

• User contributions
• Recent changes
• Watchlists
• Revision diffs
• IRC channels
• Related changes
• New pages list
• Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks!

September 2021

Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, List of Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School alumni, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 14:31, 17 September 2021 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at List of Yale Law School alumni, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. TJRC (talk) 22:08, 17 September 2021 (UTC)

June 2022

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Template:Boston Red Sox roster navbox, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Player numbers are available on individual team plages on MLB.com (such as here) — if no number is listed on MLB.com, use "--" (two hyphens). Please do not guess at or make up player numbers.

August 2022

Hello, I'm Dmoore5556. Your recent edit to the page Christian Vázquez appears to have added premature information about a reported sports transaction, so it has been removed for now. The transaction is based on anonymous sources and/or awaiting an official announcement. If you believe the transaction has been completed, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. 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. Dmoore5556 (talk) 22:49, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Darin Ruf, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. General Ization ^Talk 21:20, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Thomas Szapucki, you may be blocked from editing. General Ization ^Talk 21:21, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

Hi Kmau1l15! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Houston Astros minor league players into San Francisco Giants minor league players. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 11:23, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

Stop Undoing Edits and Vandalizing

@Kmau1l15 Please stop undoing my edits and vandalizing pages. I am simply updating MLB player stats to the standard.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue vandalizing like you did with Trayce Thompson you may be blocked from editing. Batgirl-Awsomeness (talk) 04:49, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

Could you please explain why are you including total hits as one of the main statistics for Trayce Thompson when he has less than 200 career hits? Kmau1l15 (talk) 06:16, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

It is part of the standardization of baseball stats across wiki. You don't need 200 to put the stat in. It is especially important because with the recent MLB rule changes with base size and with the addition of the pitch clock, hits and stolen bases are becoming much more common.

Standard Stats:

Batters

- Batting average

- Hits

- Home runs

- Runs batted in

- Stolen bases

Pitchers

- Win–loss record

- Earned run average

- Strikeouts

- Saves (If applicable) Batgirl-Awsomeness (talk) 01:02, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

The standard for batters is Batting average, home runs, runs batted in, and stolen bases if applicable. You should only be including hits on a player's page when it's a significant number like 1,000 or more. Hits is not a necessary statistic for the page of Trayce Thompson. Kmau1l15 (talk) 03:01, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

It is the standard. Look at Mookie Betts for example. Batgirl-Awsomeness (talk) 15:02, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

If you are looking at the style guides, they are outdated and do not reflect the current standard formatting used. Batgirl-Awsomeness (talk) 18:58, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

Mookie Betts has over 1,000 hits, which is a significant number to include on a player's page. His number of hits wasn't added until July 2021. Go look at any hitter on the current Oakland Athletics roster. Or the current Seattle Mariners roster. They all have the standard stats of Batting average, home runs, runs batted in, and stolen bases if applicable. Kmau1l15 (talk) 22:17, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

Not all player stats have been updated. Batgirl-Awsomeness (talk) 02:35, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

And stats do not need to be over a certain number. That would make no sense as younger players naturally have less stats than veterans. Batgirl-Awsomeness (talk) 02:38, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

Can you please provide a source that states that hits are a standard statistic for every MLB player's wiki page? Kmau1l15 (talk) 05:18, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
