December 2016

Hello, I'm Justeditingtoday. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Billy Idol without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Justeditingtoday (talk) 01:01, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Billy Idol, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you.

Your comments on my talk page

Though I am not User:Justeditingtoday, and you did start your message with "Hi Justeditingtoday!", I do know Justeditingtoday. I've reviewed your edits to the page in question, and you were engaged in an edit war with another user. I'll post the edit warring template below. Also, you just deleted the notice that says on it that someone isn't to add any instruments without consensus first, which you did not achieve. Please bring the discussion to the talk page, then make the edit. And since you were engaged in an edit war, please have another user, who can validate the consensus, make the edit adding the instruments. Thanks, _{Adotchar| reply here} 01:47, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

December 2016

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Billy Idol. 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.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

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; 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. _{Adotchar| reply here} 01:48, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Concerning your comments on my talk page

You said that "Wikipedia" says that you're doing something wrong. There is no "Wikipedia" standing behind your back watching your every move. There's just editors like me who donate our free time to making sure vandals like you have their vandal edits removed immediately. I know this may seem a bit bitey, but you have engaged in edit warring over something discussed in a Wikipedia guideline. We use consensus, not just going freely about and changing important things. Please consult the talk page and ask about it, before doing this. Thanks, _{Adotchar| reply here} 02:10, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did with this edit to Lindsey Graham. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 00:56, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

License tagging for File:-Users-Luca.Gajovich-Protich-Desktop-71787 l.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:-Users-Luca.Gajovich-Protich-Desktop-71787 l.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 02:31, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
