Regarding edits made during April 26 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you may want to do. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Pupster21 Talk To Me 19:11, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

This is your last warning.
The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 12:48, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

I now see that your edit wasn't vandalism — you were removing a large chunk of duplicated material. My apologies for the misunderstanding — but it wouldn't have happened if you'd used an edit summary:

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 19:18, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

Author/Journalist & Reuters Correspondent Mohamud M. Afrah & Dir.Gen.Kornel Ahmad Xaaji Gacal

Articles about people are listed by the name and not by titles. I have moved them both. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 09:39, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

I just found out that Mohamud M. Afrah was copied from here and Ahmad Xaaji Gacal was copied from here. Please do not copy information from other websites as it violates copyright laws. Take a few minutes and read Wikipedia:Copyrights. Be aware that continuing to post copyright material will lead to bloking. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 10:22, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

September 2007

Please stop making test edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Hawiye. It is considered vandalism, which, under Wikipedia policy, can lead to blocking of editing privileges. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 13:29, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted.

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to Hiraab.

If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources please take this opportunity to add your original reference to the article. Contact me if you need assistance adding references.

License tagging for Image:Caddoow.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Caddoow.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 10:06, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
