December 2018 edit

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Dylan Cozens has been reverted.
Your edit here to Dylan Cozens was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://twitter.com/dylancozens) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 11:38, 28 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, please ignore this notice.

  • I read the policy. It looks ok here. We don't have a main subject page with that info. And it is then common in mlb bio pages on wp.184.153.21.19 (talk) 11:41, 28 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia pages, such as those you made to Fencers Club, even if you intend to fix them later. Your edits have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Kindly don't just dump bare URLs into an article. Cite properly, including relevant bibliographic information. Do not insert references that do not verify the very facts that need verification. Drmies (talk) 15:07, 18 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

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.
I'm confused. Where is there a rule that I cannot source with a reliable source bare url? Where is there a rule that allows you to delete the supporting reliable source bare url? Where is there a rule that says that you can warn me for that? It is not a test edit. I am improving the article. Others can help me and improve it further. As I told you, my referene automated maker is not working at the moment. If it works, I am happy to use it. Why do you call it "dumping"? I am not dumping. I am adding a reliable source bare url. I am not experimenting. And what do you have in mind when you say that references I add do not verify the very facts that need verification. I think they do. What are you thinking of. Please indicate exactly. Thank you. And please revert yourself, because of the above. And why are you speaking in such an angry tone? I am trying to improve the wikipedia. User:JesseRafe - can you please take a look at this, as you welcomed me? Thank you. 184.153.21.19 (talk) 20:15, 18 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
"My automated longer reference function is not working"--mine isn't working either, so I do it by hand. You can do that too. You didn't, which is why the article looks like shit. And dumping (yes) a bare URL for something from a book is just incredibly unhelpful, since you need to provide proper bibliographical information, and that's more important than a URL. If you can take the time to find a reference for every single fencer, you can find the time to do it right. If you don't understand this edit summary, that's pretty sad. What needed verification is this "oldest continuing" stuff, and it doesn't. You may think it does, but it doesn't. Drmies (talk) 22:03, 18 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Dominic Waters, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history, as well as helping prevent edit conflicts. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.

 
The Show preview button is right next to the Publish changes button and below the edit summary field.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. When you use reFill 2 to fill in bare references, check your work. That tool adds a deprecated parameter that you must change manually to the new one. Isaidnoway (talk) 10:27, 8 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Response edit

It's not "my" addition. You are very persistent in vandalism, I just reverted it. Just because a section is uncited doesn't mean it's false. Regarding the controversies, RandomCanadian is part of the administrators teams and your material is not valid according to some admins. .karellian-24 (talk) 10:33, 26 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

@.karellian-24: That's not right. RandomCanadian is a very experienced and good editor, but not an administrator. Also, who is an admin is not relevant when there is a disagreement over content (unless certain strict policies such as WP:BLP apply).
@184.153.21.19: I am an administrator and will block this IP if the aggression is not reined in. Consensus has judged the disputed material to be undue. Do not pester editors on their talk pages; use article talk to discuss a disagreement about an article. The fact that something is true/sourced does not mean that WP:DUE applies. Also see WP:COATRACK. Johnuniq (talk) 04:01, 27 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
