Deleting other users comments edit
Please refrain from deleting other users comments from discussions as you did here and here. Just because you don't like what someone says you have no authority to delete other users comments. If you believe it is vandalism report it to an Administrator. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 17:30, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

February 2017 edit
Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Michael Kightly, 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. Mattythewhite (talk) 23:49, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
Club infobox dates edit
Hi, when updating club infobox stats you should update the |club-update= or |pcupdate= parameter by adding five tildes (~~~~~), which generates the specific time the update was made. Thanks, Mattythewhite (talk) 23:50, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
- Please keep this in mind. Mattythewhite (talk) 23:52, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
February 2017 edit
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Jackson Irvine. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been 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. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Per #Club infobox dates. Mattythewhite (talk) 23:54, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
April 2017 edit
When updating appearances etc. in football infoboxes, please also update the club statistics table where one exists. E.g. at Jacob Butterfield. Thank you. Eagleash (talk) 12:18, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
May 2017 edit
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Battle of the Buffet. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. clpo13(talk) 23:29, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
August 2017 edit
Please do not add or change content, as you did at List of monster movies, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 19:58, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
Re: deletion of run time from LoWEe article.
There is no specific guideline in MOS:TV that deals with the inclusion of episode run time in the "List of episodes" article. It's a basic fact about the episodes and including it or deleting it is subjective editing. Whatever the consensus may be, I've asked for an RfC to be created to resolve the issue of its mention in the List of episodes page. See MOS talk: Mention of episode run time in "List of episodes" page. Pyxis Solitary talk 07:24, 20 August 2017 (UTC)
Original research edit
Please do not add your own personal analysis of a film's reception, as you did in this edit. This is original research and is forbidden on Wikipedia. Instead, you might look for analysis in reliable sources, such as Entertainment Weekly. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 20:30, 9 September 2017 (UTC)
October 2017 edit
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on The Lost World: Jurassic Park. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 12:53, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
November 2017 edit
Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at Sam Winnall.
- 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.

Nomination of List of Trump administration dismissals and resignations for deletion edit
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of Trump administration dismissals and resignations is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Trump administration dismissals and resignations until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Corky 16:53, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

1931 election edit
Hi - Thank you for commenting on the 1931 election, I concur with your view MacDonald should be represented. However, am curious why you deleted my totals of gains and losses. I don't think it is original research - essentially, F. W. S. Craig's "British Electoral Facts 1885-1975" gives a clear table of gains and losses, and it is a matter of totalling them up.
The problem arises from the "alliances" that formed in this election; so a Conservative gain from Liberal is +1 to the Conservatives and -1 from the Liberals, but is perhaps no gain and no loss to the National Government but only a transfer between parties in that coalition. Similarly a gain in Glasgow by the ILP from Labour (which would be a gain only arising from the sitting MP defecting to the ILP, but that's another issue!) might be +1 to the ILP and -1 to Labour, but is +/-0 to the "Labour (total)" category.
Apart from this, I have totalled them all up, so might I revert your reversion without creating an edit war? Uncantabrigian (talk) 17:54, 5 August 2018 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution edit
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Arthur Ravenel Jr. into Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 20:56, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

Infobox timestamps edit
Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. Welcome to Wikipedia! I just wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions were not quite right. When updating statistics within the infobox of a footballer, please make sure you update the timestamp at the same time, so that both readers and fellow editors know when the information was last updated.
You can do this by replacing the existing timestamp within the |club-update= or |pcupdate= parameter for club stats, or the |nationalteam-update= or |ntupdate= parameter for international stats. For articles that use a DMY date format, use five tildes (~~~~~), or for MDY dates, use {{subst:mdytime}}. This will generate the specific time the update was made.
If you have any questions about this, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you, Mattythewhite (talk) 13:46, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
Icelandic names - Ragnarsdóttir edit
On December 27, you added a T:Icelandic name template to the Ragnheiður Ragnarsdóttir article, but you used the "female" second parameter. The "female" parameter is [somewhat confusingly] to indicate a matronymic (after the mother), not to indicate if the person with the name is male or female. Since Ragnarsdóttir is patronymic (after the father; in this case, she's the daughter of [her male father] Ragnar) the parameter would have been "male" if it wasn't the default. In this template, if it is patronymic, the second parameter is omitted (thus, in the Ragnheiður Ragnarsdóttir article, it should be {{Icelandic name|Ragnheiður}}. — al-Shimoni (talk) 03:51, 2 June 2019 (UTC)

Hi there. Just a note to say that your edit to the page on Derby Cathedral has been undone by another editor. It was, I'm afraid, a poorly cited statement to a clearly unreliable 'guesstimate', and as such had no place on Wikipedia without better sources. Oh, and you re-named the Cathedral "St Philip's", for some unknown reason. Please try and take a bit more care in the contributions you make. See Cathedral of The Isles. Best wishes. Nick Moyes (talk) 01:20, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
Democracy Manifest edit
Your edits there were really good and brought the article into sharper focus and fixed a couple troublesome areas. One thing in the broadcast news video he is in fact identified at Cecil George Edwards, there is no mystery as to the man's name being arrested. However this is only known by watching this archival video [1] starting around 1:05 . But I think your approach of treating him as anonymous is accurate since the article is describing the viral video not the original broadcast video, which few people have actually seen and is not the direct source of the meme. It might be worthwhile mentioning somehow there are two versions of the video available, though both are incomplete in different ways. -- GreenC 13:41, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
Recent edit reversion edit
In this edit here, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of our copyright policy.
Do you think I am missing something?
I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted.

- I see you point. But I think of the odd-number election articles the same way as the the evens… a collection of summaries on the larger page and then a detailed discussion on the smaller page. —GoldRingChip (it/they) 00:31, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
Don't be a jerk edit
Instead of removing information just because it is not sourced, do a simple Internet search, which will provide you with a multitude of sources for that statement and add them. You are behaving like a kerk, and a disgrace to this project. If you don't want to contribute positively, at least don't make things worse. Debresser (talk) 18:40, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
- Hi Debresser. Firstly, please familiarise yourself with the policy on living persons, which says that unsourced content about a person should be removed immediately, particularly with regards to a date of birth. As no source exists for Brianne Howey's date of birth, it should be removed from her article. Secondly, please familiarise yourself with the policies on civility and no personal attacks. Repeatedly calling someone a "jerk" because they removed unsourced content is potential harassment and may lead to you being blocked. Thank you. Dcfc1988 (talk) 22:46, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
- A source exists, you're just not willing to add it. However correct you may be policy-wise, that is precisely the definition of a jerk: somebody who prefers to be right according to the rules, but not willing to make even the least effort the world a better place, apart from showing everybody how damn right he is.

Mistaken deletion in Watergate item edit
You were wrong to say that Gordon Liddy did not handle one of his pistols on camera in the documentary Watergate (TV series) so I have reinstated my original text.

- He was holding a gun at one point during the episode, but he was not holding it as he talked about killing Anderson, hence why it was removed. Dcfc1988 (talk) 14:32, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

Small comment(s) edit
In an article, try your best to use the formats already present. To Crawl (2019 film), you added references within the text when an sfn format was already in place and added several references that were already cited. As a result, your edit has been reverted.

- Hi there, thanks for the message. I have amended the references to the format there at present. In future, I would advise not reverting an edit on the basis of disliking the citation format being used. You will note that when you switched the format over to SFN, your edit was not completely reverted. The Help:Reverting page and the Wikipedia:Revert only when necessary article are useful reads. Instead, message the other editor first. I'd also recommend not using SFN when the citations are not books, otherwise you just end up with a reference section that's just unnecessarily long. With no specific page number on about 95% of the citations there's really no need. But hey, that's just my opinion. Happy editing. Dcfc1988 (talk) 22:20, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
