Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

I have again reverted your edit on Hiberno-English. It is completely unclear what the intention of that edits is. To me, it looks like an unsourced attempt to a discussion in the article. For discussions we have a talkpage available: Talk:Hiberno-English. The Banner talk 12:59, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. However, please do not use unreliable sources such as blogs, your own website, websites and publications with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight, expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, that are promotional in nature, or that rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions, as one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. If you require further assistance, please look at Help:Menu/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse. Thank you. OhNoitsJamie Talk 22:49, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
Please read MOS:CITIZEN; we don't put ethnicities and multiple citizenships in the lede or infobox. OhNoitsJamie Talk 23:44, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

editPlease stop your disruptive editing.
- 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 noticeboards.
- 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.
If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. OhNoitsJamie Talk 23:58, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 18:50, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
Anglo-Irish literature
editHello, and welcome. Thank you for the useful addition of other writers after the sentence on Anglo-Irish writing - this was well done, you provided a detailed edit summary, which is appreciated. A small guidance - in writing such summaries, please keep them neutral, without accusations. See also WP:AGF. Everything in a Wikipedia article should be based on sources, we are not a primary or original venue, so the question of, say, "clear bias" or "bigotry" should not arise. The past was another country, as the saying goes, so perspectives change, and concepts such as valuing diversity in itself are contemporary... (though it happened in some cultures of the past, notably some multi-ethnic larger polities, in some degrees - for example re ethnicity but not gender, or gender but not social status - without special comment). As it happens, "Anglo-Irish" is indeed just one aspect of historical Irish literature, and I do not think anyone now would attempt to claim that all writers from Ireland working in English were writing in an "Anglo-Irish" tradition. On the point about women, Wikipedia has a whole major project dedicated to improving coverage - but it is a fact that for much of history, in most societies globally, certainly including both the UK and Ireland, women were sorely under-represented in publishing, along with much else. A few made it through, but challenges reached right into the 20th century. So the fact that the list of 5 writers mentioned in the "Anglo-Irish" tradition of a particular period contains no women is probably not editorial bias but may flow from the sources - of course, if we could find a source mentioning one or more sample female writers to join that list, we'd all be delighted.
