  Your recent edit to 1998 appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person or organization added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you. ☾Loriendrew☽ (talk) 17:07, 20 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Welcome to Wikipedia!

edit

Hello, 7am in Brooklyn, and welcome to Wikipedia!

An edit that you recently made to Pliny the Elder has been reversed because it did not have a valid parameter for the template. This made it display incorrectly, as Template:BirthDeathAge expects a number for the year. Please preview before you save to catch these problems. If you want more practice editing, please see HELP:Templates and use the sandbox. If you believe that the template should allow "AD", you may wish to discuss it at Template talk:BirthDeathAge.

Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Sources in biography articles

edit

  Hello, I'm Ponyo. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Robert Kazinsky, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! --Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 23:40, 7 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
