February 2023

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Teyujagua, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Mako001 (C)  (T)  🇺🇦 05:42, 5 February 2023 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Uncle Green. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 09:32, 6 February 2023 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to engage in subtle vandalism by making unexplained changes to information, as you did at Textile arts, you may be blocked from editing. StarryGrandma (talk) 05:20, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

Textile is derived from the Latin, not the Latin American. Please edit more carefully, and leave edit summaries explaining what you are doing. Your error rate is becoming a problem. StarryGrandma (talk) 05:25, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

National varieties of English

Hello. In a recent edit to the page Sándor Márai, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. —chaetodipus (talk) 09:18, 6 February 2023 (UTC)

Another allowed variation in English is the use of the Oxford comma. See WP:Oxford comma. Don't change the usage of commas in article. In Roman Jakobsen and other articles you removed the last comma in a list. This is perfectly correct usage and do not change it in articles. You have been here only two days and are making many changes that are unnecessary, just from one perfectly good usage to another, as well as changes that are completely wrong. Please slow down and don't assume that because something doesn't sound right to you that it is wrong. StarryGrandma (talk) 05:42, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. StarryGrandma (talk) 06:12, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

Hi Comprehensive5, I saw the section at the noticeboard and I notice that your most recent edits have not been with the Android app, so trying again to get your attention.

We appreciate your efforts, but as earlier messages on this page state, you've been making some mistakes. In particular, don't change the variety of English; don't change quotations (as you did at Black and White (2002 film)); and some of your edits to medical and scientific topics (such as Chaunoides) show you might not have a good grasp of the syntax or terminology of those fields. If in doubt about a copyediting change, don't make it; there are many articles where the need is obvious.

The editing community relies on communication, so if you do see this, please respond either here or at the noticeboard section, which is here. Thanks! Yngvadottir (talk) 11:10, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for the purpose of getting your attention and directing you to your talk page User talk:Comprehensive5. This block is not a "sanction", so much as the only way to direct your attention to your talk page if you're using a mobile app. Admins, as soon as Comprehensive5 starts using their talk page, please unblock. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Floquenbeam (talk) 18:29, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

I'm sorry, as discussed in the WP:ANI thread linked above (and at WP:TCHY), due to problems with our mobile software, this might be the only way to make you aware that you have messages. You can still reply here, and as soon as you do, any admin is encouraged to unblock you. --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:35, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

@Floquenbeam Hi floquenbeam, I saw your messages and another ones on my talk page. Sorry for not being here for a while. Your messages are noticed & thank you. Comprehensive5 (talk) 19:09, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

OK, thanks for the note that you've now seen these messsages. I've unblocked you. Please keep monitoring your talk page, and interact and reply to the notes people leave you; this is a collaborative project. Let me know if you need help with anything. Floquenbeam (talk) 20:01, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

@Floquenbeam Okay, thank you. Comprehensive5 (talk) 02:33, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

Hi again, Comprehensive5. I circled back and checked a couple of your recent edits, and reverted you at the one on a rail line; see my edit summary. Have you found Category:Articles needing cleanup? Yngvadottir (talk) 22:05, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
