Massachusetts Road Articles edit

Hello. I noticed that you edited lots of junction destinations for Massachusetts road articles. While I understand your good faith of trying to improve the articles, anything written must be verifiable via a reliable source. In particular, each destination should rely on the actual signs posted on the road. I have been cross-checking your edits with Google Street View and found that they did not match up. That is why I keep reverting your edits. I hope this makes it clear. Please refrain from editing these articles unless you have reliable sources that the articles are incorrect; sometimes they are, but most of the time they aren't, so double check before committing your edits.

Also, please use "Show Preview" to make sure that your edits are displayed as you intended. A few of your past edits broke a template. I think I fixed all of them, so no worries about that. It would be nice, however, to correct your mistakes before they are recorded permanently in the articles' history. These mistakes cost some space on the server, so it is best to ensure everything is right before saving the page. It is okay to mess up once in a while though, so not a whole lot of pressure here. Let me know if you have questions or if I can be of further help. Chinissai (talk) 23:49, 20 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Please stop editing articles that already have references on exit locations. They reflect appropriate contents that respect WP:RJL standards. I put many hours of hard work on this and now am exhausted of reverting your changes. If you think there should really be a change, please discuss it either here or on individual articles' talk pages. Also still, you seemed not to preview any of your edits, resulting in broken templates, which reduce the quality of the articles. Some I am kind enough to fix, others I just reverted. Finally, when you edit an article, it would be nice to add an edit summary so others know what you did. Any further unreasonable edits will be considered disruptive, and I will have to report accordingly. There will not be a third notice. Please either seek help or discuss; don't ignore this message. Thanks for your understanding. Chinissai (talk) 04:45, 25 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Discussion about you occuring on WT:USRD edit

Hello, This is to inform you that a discussion is taking place on WT:USRD about the similarities of 3 accounts making edits to highway articles. Several editors have opined that the evidence points to a violation of wikipedia policy at WP:SOCK, compelling enough to invoke the WP:QUACK test. Please comment on the the observations below:

Contributions show a similar pattern between 3 editors specifically:[1][2][3]

  • Editing primarily from a mobile device
  • strong focus on highway articles, 2 of the 3 accounts primarily edit articles about highways in Massachusetts, all 3 have edited at least one article about a highway in Massachusetts
  • All 3 accounts have made similar infobox edits on the main or sub-articles of Interstate 90 [4][5][6]
  • All 3 accounts have been warned on their talk page about edits to infoboxes that have broken formatting, including 2 of the 3 have been warned by bracketbot [7][8][9]

These observations do not apply to the account Jakobrots500:

  • 2 of the 3 accounts have made repeated anachronistic insertions of U.S. Route 66 into infoboxes of highway articles[10][11], both accounts have been previously warned on the talk page about this.
  • 2 of the 3 accounts have made similar edits to U.S. Route 6 within a week. [12]
  • 2 of the 3 accounts have made erroneous claims about which highway is the longest in the United States: [13][14]

Please comment on these observations here, or on WT:USRD. Dave (talk) 02:16, 28 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

September 2014 edit

  Hello, I'm Donner60. I wanted to let you know that I undid one of your recent contributions, such as the one you made with this edit to Massachusetts Route 30, 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. Donner60 (talk) 22:27, 1 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Please respond to the questions asked on your talk page. I hate to lose a roads article editor. However, several points and questions have been raised on your talk page, that have been left unanswered, and the editing patters that have raised the concern continue.

At the above linked discussion at WT:USRD, evidence has been provided by others of block evasion via IP's. As such I've changed the block to an indefinite block. Dave (talk) 05:29, 22 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
