Welcome! edit

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions so far. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Here are some links to pages you may find useful:

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:

If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (2602:306:BC31:4AA0:480B:1D12:4102:2962) is used to identify you instead.

I hope that you, as a new Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).

Happy editing! Quinton Feldberg (talk) 18:44, 4 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Quinton Feldberg: FWIW. Tomorrow, if I edit again, it'll be from a different identity and this one will be gone forever. If someone's got an IP address where it's four groups of one, two, or three digits separated by periods, you should welcome them. But if someone's address is the mile-long string of gibberish you see at the top of this page, you shouldn't bother. 2602:306:BC31:4AA0:480B:1D12:4102:2962 (talk) 19:02, 4 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
Perhaps, I should do a range welcome, then? :D Quinton Feldberg (talk) 19:04, 4 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

August 2017 edit

  Hello, I'm Quinton Feldberg. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to No Limit Records— because it did not appear constructive. 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.

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Despacito. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Quinton Feldberg (talk) 02:11, 5 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Wobble Wobble, you may be blocked from editing. Quinton Feldberg (talk) 02:20, 5 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

January 2018 edit

  Hello, I'm W4chris. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Joyce Carol Oates, 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. W4chris (talk) 02:29, 22 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

@W4chris: You chose to revert me without considering my valid explanation. The first change, regarding Mississippi and reading, damn sure was sourced and the second change can't be sourced since it just removed a sentence fragment that rendered Oates's quote incoherent. What are you talking about? 2602:306:BC31:4AA0:480B:1D12:4102:2962 (talk) 02:34, 22 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

June 2018 edit

  Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that in this edit to Cleveland Cultural Gardens, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 20:10, 5 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Oshwah: You believe I "removed content without adequately explaining why" because you didn't take one second to see if I'd typed anything into the edit summary box. Your mistake. 2602:306:BC31:4AA0:480B:1D12:4102:2962 (talk) 20:15, 5 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
Hey, I actually meant to follow up with a message here and update this warning. I know that there was an explanation left in the edit summary; I took a look at the content you removed and ran it through our COPYVIO tool and nothing came back - can you point me to the location that you say that this content was plagiarized or copied straight from? I'd like to take a look and figure out who added that content if this is in fact the case... thanks, and I apologize for leaving this generic message on your talk page. I should have just reverted with a custom summary and came straight here. I get myself get sidetracked with something and this ended up being the result, which isn't cool and is understandably frustrating on your end. I'm sorry. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 20:25, 5 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Bow Down, 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.
