Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Arid Uka, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Albanian (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to Stockton Police Department does not have an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history.

The edit summary appears in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! SummerPhD (talk) 15:53, 17 July 2014 (UTC)

Rampage

I refer to your edit here: [1]. Thanks for adding referenced information to the article. Just some friendly advice. Please consider formatting references using an approved method such as Template:Cite web, especially when most of the existing references in the article are formatted in this way. Please choose simpler names for your references in the future. Giving the reference the name <ref name ="[Review] Uwe Boll Strikes Back With 'Rampage: Capital Punishment'"> defeats the purpose of having a simple ref name to allow editors to refer to the reference again without cutting and pasting. A reference based on a cue in the title such as "strikesback" or "punishment", would be much more appropriate, as would the name of the website it links to "bloodydisgusting", if that website is not used elsewhere in the article already. Also you do not need comma's in-between the second-last listed item and the word "and". The sentence should end "Katharine Isabelle and Michaela Mann." not "Katharine Isabelle, and Michaela Mann.

Marysville Pilchuck High School shooting

What are "Native American activities"? Anticipating some objections to that. Maybe you mean traditional Native American culture? That would be much more clear, and less likely to cause a hissy-fit.

December 2014

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. Lor^{Ho ho ho} 06:44, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Unexplained removal of reference

Hi, in this edit you removed a reference from Jurassic World. Not sure if that was intentional or not, but if it was, you should explain your edit by using an edit summary, as unexplained edits of this sort look like vandalism to other editors. I've restored the reference. Thanks, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:36, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Stop

Discuss on the talk page or i'm going to report you to ANI. Silverseren^C 22:31, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

Unexplained deletion of RS-supported fact

Why did you delete the RS-supported mention of where the third suspect lived, here? Nor did you leave any clue in your empty edit summary. --Epeefleche (talk) 23:23, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

Furthermore, I see you removed the reference. And I see that you have been warned for doing the same, above. Please take this as a warning. --Epeefleche (talk) 23:25, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

I am pretty sure I didn't remove that fact. Libertarian12111971 (talk) 23:27, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

Did you check the diff? It appears from the diff that you did. Epeefleche (talk) 08:54, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Repeated deletion of linking

You've repeatedly deleted links, on the basis of your personal view, unsupported by consensus, that redlinks are not appropriate. Again you did it here. With a purported rationale that makes no sense. Firstly, where is the evidence that the article was deleted? Secondly, if the entity were non-notable, it would be appropriate to delete the sentence. Thirdly, just because an article is deleted (where that is the case) does not mean a properly written article may not be written. Please stop editing against consensus. Epeefleche (talk) 08:57, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Re: Episode summary length

Hello. I've noticed over the past season or so that you tend to write long episode summaries for anime lists, and in some instances even extend the length of some. While I appreciate your enthusiasm to summarize these episodes, it is generally unnecessary to write as much as you do for a single episode. For instance, with the episode I gave as an example, you effectively doubled the length of a summary of an already suitable length, but these summaries are generally not meant to be that long to begin with. As a rule of thumb, I would recommend trying to keep it to about the length of episode 13's original summary and instead of writing intricate detail about an episode, just write about the most important details.--十八 22:50, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Redlinks

Quite a number of articles have been created since Charlie Hebdo shooting was created. Two that I created myself are Coco (cartoonist) and Charlie Hebdo issue No. 1011. Others have turned many more redlinks into bluelinks. Once they are created, they cease to be redlinks. Now please revert and read WP:REDLINK. Curly Turkey ¡gobble! 22:01, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

WHERE ARE THESE ARTICLES?! BECAUSE I'M NOT SEEING THEM! Libertarian12111971 (talk) 22:06, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

I LINKED TO THEM!!!!! Curly Turkey ¡gobble! 22:33, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

I'm seeing only one now. The rest are STILL red links. Libertarian12111971 (talk) 23:07, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

Jesus Christ—do you seriously believe red links are supposed to be removed? They are there to encourage people to create new articles! Just as I have just now. Now leave these things alone—you obviously don't understand how Wikipedia works, and are only going to embarrass yourself (or get blocked for vandalizing the page and edit-warring). Curly Turkey ¡gobble! 23:10, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

Well, those things have been around since the creation of the article and no one has barely made an effort to make articles outside of you for only one of them. If no one's going to make articles of them, why the hell should they be there in the first place? Libertarian12111971 (talk) 23:13, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

You're going to claim that I'm the only one who has turned these redlinks into articles? Would you like to take it to the talk page and ask? I'm sure the hardworking editors and creators of articles could use a good laugh. Did you not notice how I created one of those articles just today? Give it a freaking rest—you're being contentious, and you're going to get yourself blocked. Curly Turkey ¡gobble! 23:20, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

 — Crisco 1492 (talk) 17:02, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

April 2015

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at List of My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU episodes (season 2). Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges.

I have to disagree with you on your choice of grammar and "errors". On a side note, too many commas interrupt the flow. The point is for a continuous flow of words in a summary, minimizing pauses where possible/necessary. KirtZJ (talk) 04:06, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

Summaries need to use simple simple sentences and avoid the over use of commas since they usually affect the flow to a casual reader. On a side note, I can only caution you control your edit warring tendencies as done at the aforementioned page and over at Fate/stay night. If somebody reverts you a second time there is usually a reason and you should make a case at a talk page and work something out. Hope this helps. —Kirt^Message 16:39, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. I warned you for doing the same thing in the past. As you did just now -- the unexplained removal of appropriate, RS-supported material. Here. Please stop. Epeefleche (talk) 07:14, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

As here ... the latest instance of inappropriate removal of RS-supported material, referenced directly above. Not only was the deletion not appropriate.

Inline links

Inline links are helpful. They flag readers to the fact that they can click -- and learn more about the individual linked. Please don't delete such inlines. --Epeefleche (talk) 07:21, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

No, they're not. Libertarian12111971 (talk) 07:24, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

Why not? I explained above how they are. You can't just edit war on the basis of IDONTLIKEIT. You have to give a cogent reason for your edit warring. Which you have failed to do. I explained to you above how it is helpful. You simply responded, in effect, "no."

If I can't explain this to you, would you prefer that it be raised at a noticeboard? It is disruptive for you to do what you are doing.

And -- as has been requested a number of times, but which you still ignore, please leave edit summaries. This is especially important when you make controversial edits, such as this one, but is a proper general practice as well.

Please stop edit warring. --Epeefleche (talk) 07:31, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

Is leaving edit summaries really mandatory? Libertarian12111971 (talk) 07:36, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

• To answer your question -- please click through and read the content at the templated messages that have been left for you over the past seven months in this regard. Asking you to leave edit summaries. Starting with User:JohnInDC ten months ago, and then User:Jetstreamer leaving the request, over seven months ago, and continuing with the request being made not just by more (more than once) but also, for example, by User:Cyphoidbomb.

Despite a series of requests, you've continued to not leave edit summaries on many edits. Even on controversial edits. Even when you are reverting another editor.

Read in particular the section of "Edit Summaries" entitled: "Always provide an edit summary".

It is considered good practice to provide a summary for every edit, especially when reverting the actions of other editors or deleting existing text; otherwise, people may question your motives for the edit.

Proper use of edit summaries is critical to resolving content disputes. Edit summaries should accurately and succinctly summarize the nature of the edit, especially if it could be controversial.

Your failure to use edit summaries, despite being pointed to this language a number of times by more than one editor over half a year, is compounded by the fact that you've failed to do so while engaging in controversial edits, and when reverting another editor.

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia's Edit Warring noticeboard regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you.

I did not block you this time, since you stopped reverting. However, your behavior in the article and in the above topic is not really acceptable.
