July 2019

Hello, I'm Archer1234. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Beth Chapman (bounty hunter), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at User talk:Archer1234. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please 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, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Stop posting any more about Beth Chapman on my talk page. Take it to the talk page for Beth Chapman. That is the most appropriate place to resolve what the article should say. Archer1234 (talk) 02:42, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Using the Preview button

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In the future, 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. 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. Thank you. – Archer1234 (talk) 03:33, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Help Me

Is there any way to fully delete my wikipedia account or at least make it no longer useable? BayArea2018 (talk) 20:12, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

It is not possible to delete user accounts, as all contributions must be assigned to some identifier; either a username or an IP address. Editors seeking privacy per courtesy vanishing / right to vanish can usually have their accounts renamed and their user pages (and in exceptional cases user talk pages) deleted. - Rich^T|C|E-Mail 20:21, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
