Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Please make sure to include an edit summary with every edit. 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:

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

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! CutOffTies (talk) 11:39, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Discospinster. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Carlos Beltrán, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ... discospinster _talk 01:52, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Nelson Mandela, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

Please stop adding unsourced content. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. George Ho (talk) 09:09, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at William Hung, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. --Ejl389 (talk) 18:23, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your image was inserted successfully on the page Suk-min Yoon, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do.

Your addition to Masahiro Tanaka has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text, or images borrowed from other websites, or printed material without a verifiable license; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:06, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

June 2014

Hello, I'm Excirial. I wanted to let you know that I undid one of your recent contributions, such as the one you made with this edit to Kei Igawa, because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Excirial ^{(Contact me,Contribs)} 19:40, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Yu Darvish. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. EricEnfermero ^HOWDY! 01:29, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Hyun-jin Ryu, you may be blocked from editing. EricEnfermero ^HOWDY! 20:34, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

July 2014

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Ichiro Suzuki may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

• * [[New York Yankees]] ({{mlby|2012}}–2014

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 15:09, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

Baseball statistics updates

Hi Paladoofus -

Just a quick heads up that you should update the date in the "statyear" field when you change an MLB player's stats. Change the statyear field to the last date that the player played a game. If you don't do that, it sends the wrong message that a player had certain statistics as of an old, incorrect date. Also, just be careful when you make stats edits in general. In your edits from August 9, there were a couple of big mistakes, like a career batting average that was off by 20 points. Let me know if I can help in any way.

Thanks! EricEnfermero ^HOWDY! 08:33, 11 August 2014 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
