Disambiguation link notification for August 22 edit

Hi. When you recently edited Changes (Tupac Shakur song), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Amaru and Dead Wrong (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Disambiguation link notification for October 8 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of Major League Baseball managers, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Brad Mills (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

ArbCom elections are now open! edit

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. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:51, 24 November 2015 (UTC)Reply


Let's say we leave the Hot 100 up...why do you keep insisting those particular songs be taken off? Jeremyeyork (talk) 18:41, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Paul Williams, Charles Brown and Julia Lee (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

September 2018 edit

  Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Average White Band, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that.

February 2022 edit

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. ℛonherry 15:43, 11 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Plus, responding to "if it bothers you, change the others too", the articles of that format of the last decade use "Various artists" and not "Soundtrack". Not that it matters, but this is just for your information. Regards. ℛonherry 15:48, 11 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

March 2022 edit

Hi. Please read WP:OWN. No editor owns an article. Everybody is allowed to edit on any article. If your edit is disagreed with by another editor, they will revert it. And then we form a consensus by discussing it. This is how Wikipedia works. Your edit summary should be about the edit; not me. Address only the edit, and do not make personal comments. it doesn't help the issue. When you have an issue with the edit, highlight what is the issue that you find. Don't make it about the editor, especially when it's just a single edit and not an edit war like you described. Writing petty things like "allow me to edit" breaks WP:GOODFAITH and is not okay at all. if you want to edit without being corrected/disagreed, then Wikipedia is not the right place for you. I'm sure you want to improved Wikipedia just like me, and therefore we have to work together. Calling me "king of the moutain" or whatever doesn't help all this, and I'm not even familiar with that phrase/idiom. ℛonherry 05:34, 5 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

The point is to stop revert my edits when there is no vandalism to page. It’s pretty clear that only you can edit those pages, so go right ahead. WolfSpear04 (talk) 14:10, 5 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
