  Hello, I'm Reading Beans. An edit that you recently made to Atiku Abubakar seemed to be a test and has been reverted. If you want to practice editing, please use your sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Reading BeansTalk to the Beans 12:56, 25 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

I have reverted most of you edits because you have added references in a non-standard way, and it is unclear what content you intended the reference to support. References are normally added after the content they support, please to not add a reference at the very start of any article, or in a heading. See Wikipedia:Citing sources and Help:Referencing for beginners. You have also removed several templates for no apparent reason. Verbcatcher (talk) 22:55, 7 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

I came here to say something similar. Thank you for your good-faith edits. Citations are valuable and I hope you'll continue to add them, but the links above explain exactly where they will do the most good. Certes (talk) 13:09, 12 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

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. You have continued to add references in a non-standard way, in spite of my asking you not to. Your edits have been reverted by multiple editors. Most or all of the citations you have added are to the search page of a newspaper, which is of no use as a source.

Can something be done about these users? This users and the others like them have added hundreds of nonsense links to hundreds of pages. Continuing the process of individual users having to revert them will take forever. They are completely unresponsive on their talk pages too. Watercheetah99 (talk) 23:28, 16 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
The edit summaries refer to 1Lib1Ref organised by WP:GLAM. Hashtag campaigns do motivate well-meaning people to start editing but may not always give them sufficient guidance to make the contributions a net positive. Certes (talk) 00:23, 17 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
Well, someone should contact the organizer of this project because these users are adding nonsense to dozens of pages a day. Watercheetah99 (talk) 00:36, 19 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
