Welcome!

So these are my few your contributions for the mighty English language.

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or click here to ask for help here on your talk page and a volunteer will visit you here shortly. Again, welcome!

  Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Praline, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some 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.

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Waffle. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed.

  • If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
  • If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you.

  Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at French fries. Your edits have been reverted or removed.

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. --Scalhotrod (Talk) ☮ღ☺ 18:47, 26 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

Request reason:

It states I'm blocked because of "vandalism". As I have only very few contribution on English Wikipedia, I can only assume this vandalism is about the pralines page, where I changed the origin country from France to Belgium. If this is true, then I don't understand the purpose of the late blocking since I already had been blocked temporarily at that time. It struggles me not to be able to change English pages anymore whenever I spot a mistake. If there is no discussion about unblocking, should I create a new account?

Accept reason:

Since the blocking administrator has not, as far as I can see, responded in over a month, I assume he has no objection to the unblock, so I shall go ahead. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 16:05, 28 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

University of Louvain

edit

Hello. I noticed that you're changing a lot of links related to the Université catholique de Louvain. When doing this, please do not link to University of Louvain, as that redirects to the disambiguation page University of Leuven. Instead use a piped link like this: [[Université catholique de Louvain|University of Louvain]]. Thanks. Nick Number (talk) 16:01, 6 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Pascal Vanderveeren, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page ULB (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

  Hello, I'm JalenFolf. I noticed that you recently removed all content from Faculty of Theology, Catholic University of Leuven. Please do not do this. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. As a rule, if you discover a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If a page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you wish 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. Jalen D.

KU Leuven

edit

Hi,

It seems you keep on undoing my edits without actually stating the reason. You can clearly see that the KU Leuven page needs a disambiguation page shown on top and not the huge block currently listed. Further the user Bruxellensis keeps on changing the foundation year of the university to 1836 when it is listed everywhere as 1425. Thus could you please stop undoing my edits?

Thank you.

--Jugodelolo (talk) 15:15, 26 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Dear Jugodelolo,
You recently created a disambiguation page (KU Leuven (disambiguation), requested for deletion), while a disambiguation page already exists at University of Leuven. The latter has links to the universities of Louvain/Leuven and the Wikipedia article Universities in Leuven. You can suggest editing the top disambiguation bar at KU Leuven to link it to University of Leuven if you'd prefer that.
As you yourself noted when editing the aforementioned disambiguation pages, a distinct article already exists for the institution founded in 1425 (the public, historical Old University of Leuven within the Duchy of Brabant, which included the Collegium Trilingue). This is a separate institution from the posterior State University of Leuven, and the Catholic University of Leuven from which KU Leuven derives. All of these Wikipedia articles' talk pages include discussions since decades about the founding dates. We can continue this discussion on (KU Leuven's talk page. My personal opinion is to go for the long-lasting and consensual mention of the three dates (1970 for the official founding of the current organisation by the law of 28 May 1970; 1834 for its official & institutional predecessor the Catholic University of Leuven/Louvain; and 1425 for the symbolic legacy).
Please do not delete paragraphs which include sourced content. For instance, you have twice removed links to caveat footnotes which precisely cite the law of 28 May 1970.
Most sincerely, PCC7500 (talk) 15:47, 26 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
