Try Checking the talk page edit

I've noticed you keep changing Joakim Noah's nationality. This issue has already been addressed, on his talk page. In the future, please refrain from making repetitive edits without stating a proper rationale in the edit summary. --►ShadowJester07  17:23, 30 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

 

You are in danger of violating the three-revert rule. Please cease further reverts or you may be blocked from editing. --►ShadowJester07  20:40, 30 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Why have you deleted the nationalities of Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi? Where's your source? Ectuohy (talk) 14:26, 24 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

It seems that you're causing quite a bit of trouble when it comes to changing nationalities, so I'm just going to say this. Do not change nationalities without sourcing and/or talk page discussion. Any more and you'll get a warning. Paralympiakos (talk) 09:41, 6 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Ricardo Almeida. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. Paralympiakos (talk) 09:44, 6 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

August 2010 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did with this edit to Lavar Johnson, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Falcon8765 (talk) 00:40, 8 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Lolohea Mahe. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Paralympiakos (talk) 20:08, 11 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Cain Velasquez and Flag for UFC 121 edit

I changed Chain Velasquez's flag to Mexico as per MOS:FLAG#Use of flags for sportspeople because the UFC is advertising he is competing in this event and will be representing Mexico. Specifically they state he is "trying to become the first Mexican UFC Champion." The MoS state that an athlete's flag should be of their sporting nationality, not true nationality. Therefore, for this event, the Mexican flag is the most appropriate. You reverted my changes without any form of edit summary or explanation. Is there a reason why you changed it? --TreyGeek (talk) 14:34, 18 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Because I don't agree with this sporting nationality nonsense--N2492004 (talk) 02:24, 19 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

In a way I agree with you. I don't feel that MMA fighters "represent" any country when they compete. Rather, they represent themselves and maybe the the gym or fighting team they are a member of. Therefore, I'd suggest that all flags be removed from next to the fighter's names. I'm not going to win that argument though. --TreyGeek (talk) 04:52, 19 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Yes I agree flag icons should be removed--N2492004 (talk) 04:55, 19 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

December 2010 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article World Victory Road Presents: Sengoku 7, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.
While you may disagree with MOS:FLAG, the citation shows that Pham represented South Vietnam at this event. If you believe he represented another country you are welcome to find a source and cite it. Continuing to change the flag to the US flag without providing a source will result in the escalation of warnings.

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Kim Davis (county clerk). Yamaguchi先生 19:00, 25 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

It's not incorrect she switched.

In that case, please make a concerted effort to cite a verifiable third party source when making changes of this magnitude to WP:BLP articles. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 19:10, 25 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
