Welcome!
editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions so far. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.
Here are some links to pages you may find useful:
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- Simplified Manual of Style
You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:
- Create new pages and rename pages
- Edit semi-protected pages
- Upload images
- Have your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed
If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (88.111.88.119) is used to identify you instead.
I hope that you, as a new Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).
Happy editing! -🐦Do☭torWho42 (⭐) 21:32, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
Edits to film articles
editPlease stop altering the currency signs as you have done at Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (film), Watership Down, About a Boy, Arriety and Tales from Earthsea: $150 million is not the same as £150 million, and $23 million is not the same as ¥23 million. Your edits are making the information factually incorrect.
The currency alterations are not the only problem. You also have removed countries from the infobox in some articles without providing an explanation. The British Film Institute states that About a Boy (film) was co-produced by France, Germany, UK and United States and yet you removed all countries except the UK. Why did you do that? Please also refrain from adding UK dates and distributors to the infobox unless the film is partly British produced. You can find out more about what goes in the infobox at WP:FILMRELEASE. Betty Logan (talk) 22:14, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
On another note, please avoid turning links into WP:EGG links as you did at Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind. Linking "anime" to "animation" is misleading to readers because anime is Japanese animation, and that is why it is linked as it is. If only the "animation" part is going to be linked it should be linked to "animation", not "anime". In this case it is more informative to link the whole phrase "Japanese animation" to "anime". Betty Logan (talk) 22:26, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- WARNING I have asked you once already to stop adding UK release dates to non-British films yet you persist with it at Your Name. Your Name is a Japanese film and the UK release date is irrelevant here and against style guidelines. WP:FILMRELEASE states "Release dates should therefore be restricted to the film's earliest release, whether it was at a film festival, a world premiere, or a public release, and the release date(s) in the country or countries that produced the film, excluding sneak previews or screenings". I have asked you nicely but now your edits are becoming disruptive. If this continues I will request admin intervention. Betty Logan (talk) 23:02, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

editHello, I'm Betty Logan. Your recent edit to the page 28 Days Later appears to have added incorrect information, so I have removed it for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. 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. Betty Logan (talk) 23:11, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Sunshine (2007 film). Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. Betty Logan (talk) 23:13, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Shallow Grave, you may be blocked from editing. Betty Logan (talk) 23:19, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Pride & Prejudice (2005 film). Betty Logan (talk) 23:30, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
- FINAL WARNING: You continued your campaign of disruption depite the warnings above. You have continued changing the currency signs at the articles listed above and at Paul (film) and at Shaun of the Dead. Changin the currency sign and not correcting the figure makes the information factually incorrect. If you persist I will be requesting a block. You are on notice.
