Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Benita Collings, you may be blocked from editing. You have been asked before to be more careful not to remove reference lists, categories, etc. from articles : Bhunacat10 (talk), 11:23, 2 June 2019 (UTC)

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

Please stop WP:EDIT WARring at Cole Porter. Use the WP:BRD process instead. Edit warring may lead to your being blocked from editing. -- Ssilvers (talk) 22:17, 16 June 2019 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. 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, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Queenie Ashton, you may be blocked from editing. You have a long history of making unexplained edits, which in some cases make a mess of things. At the very least you should leave edit summaries, and at best you should consider not editing if you can't do so without messing up the article. Drmies (talk) 14:26, 8 July 2019 (UTC)

• See below: editor MJL has great faith in you, so that's fine with me--but please take my words seriously: in a collaborative environment we have to communicate. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 18:09, 8 July 2019 (UTC)

Edit summaries

Hey there friend! Thank you again for your contributions to Wikipedia.

Drmies has brought it to my attention that your recent edits to Edward Howell did not include have an edit summary. It's really important that you provide a summary of every edit you make like you did here. It matters less how brief your summary is, but not writing one causes problems for others. These summaries can be very extremely helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Your edit summaries are visible in:

• User contributions
• Recent changes
• Watchlists
• Revision differences
• IRC channels
• Related changes
• New pages list
• Article editing history

Basically, people use your edit summary to figure out what your edit did. Wikipedia is a collaborative editing environment, so it relies on users following proper Wikipedia:Etiquette whenever they can. In your case, this is especially important because of your difficulties with Wikisyntax as some users may wrongly confuse you with a vandal.

Writing descriptive edit summaries will avoid that bleak future. Since you have done it before, I believe you'll be able to do it for the future!

Again, thank you for all you do! –MJL ‐Talk‐^☖ 17:53, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
