Usage of edit summary and reference names edit

  Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to List of 2018–19 Pro14 transfers does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing →   Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. This is especially useful to explain why you remove certain information, as you did with Simon Zebo in the above article.

Also, in this update, you added in the same reference multiple times, meaning it is listed several times in the References / Footnotes section. If you want to use the same source more than once, you should use reference names. Please have a look at this article for more information.

Changing sources edit

Hi @NikeCage68:, I've noticed recently that on List of 2018–19 Pro14 transfers you are often changing the sources for no apparent beneficial reason, and I'm wondering why you do this? Specifically, I've noticed you do this here, here and here. Whilst there is nothing wrong with the sources you are replacing them with, I don't see why you need to change them in the first place, as, more often than not, the original source used is directly from one of the two clubs involved in the player transfer, which is surely a stronger source than something from a media outlet.

I look forward to your reply. Kind regards, MunsterFan2011 (talk) 14:22, 18 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

@NikeCage68:, I've been waiting patiently a week for your reply, and I've noticed that you've repeated your above behaviour again here. Again I ask, why are you doing this? Kind regards, MunsterFan2011 (talk) 08:41, 25 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Links to Wiki articles edit

This is a discussion we had a year ago:

Hi @NikeCage68:, I'd just like to bring something else to your attention; you are breaking a number of valid links with your edits. For example, have a look at this this edit:

  • You changed [[Michael Cusack (rugby union)|Michael Cusack]] to [[Michael Cusack]]. The latter is an article about an Irish teacher and founder of the GAA, born in 1847.
  • You changed [[Matt Smith (rugby union player born 1989)|Matt Smith]] to [[Matt Smith (rugby lock)|Matt Smith]]. The latter is a red link, there is no article at that page, unlike the former, which is the player's page.
  • You changed [[Max Wright (rugby union)|Max Wright]] to [[Max Wright]]. The latter is an article about an American actor.
  • You changed [[Max Green (rugby union)|Max Green]] to [[Max Green]]. The latter is a disambiguation page.
  • You changed [[Ross Graham]] to [[Ross Graham (rugby union)|Ross Graham]]. There is no need for disambiguation, since there is no article at Ross Graham.

Those were all examples in one single edit. Why are you changing these to link to invalid pages? TheMightyPeanut (talk) 06:11, 4 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

What is this, a lecture and or civilised conversation?? Now it is becoming annoying with this nonsesne which you now find "unacceptable". Mistakes happen all the time from other users. This is BECAUSE there could be one or more articles that have the same name. I check them up beforehand. I have done this to avoid confusions. Now, this is the end of this conversation. NikeCage68 (talk) 18:05, 4 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, do you find it acceptable that after an edit, a link that previously worked is now pointing to an Irish teacher born in 1847???
Yes, mistakes happen, all of us make mistakes, but introducing 5 invalid links in one single edit is a bit much. How do you "check them up beforehand"? If you checked the links, you'd see which page they should link to. I'm just trying to figure out the way you're doing things, maybe there is a way to fine-tune your method to reduce the introduction of errors. TheMightyPeanut (talk) 23:31, 4 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Now, a year on, look at this article, following some of your edits.

Before that edit, all links to player articles were correct. With your edit, you broke these correct links, replacing them with:

  • [[Ollie Hoskins]], a disambiguation page
  • [[Blair Cowan]], a disambiguation page
  • [[Scott Steele]], an article about an American sailor
  • [[Bryce Campbell]], an article about an Australian rules footballer

Why do you keep on making these edits, that leave articles in a much worse state than they were before? I will treat edits like that as vandalism from now on, since I have spoken to you about these before, and you seem unwilling to change and ensure you are more careful in your edits.

List of 2019–20 Pro14 transfers edit

@NikeCage68: it was agreed some time ago that transfers should be in chronological order by date announced, regardless of whether the player is moving to a new club, retiring or being released, yet you persist with moving players who have been released by their club to the end of their relevant section, thereby disrupting the order by date. If you feel the method of organising the players should be changed, seek a consensus on the talk page, rather than ignoring the accepted method. MunsterFan2011 (talk) 09:19, 12 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Bourg-en-Bresse/Narbonne signings/departures edit

Hi there, I've recently added Bourg-en-Bresse and Narbonne to the Rugby Pro D2 transfers page following their promotion, however I struggle to find sourcing for French transfers. If you have the time can you try and find if there's been any transfers for these two teams going back that have been missed. Many thanks. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 17:50, 7 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Dan Lancaster edit

Hi there NikeCage68, I've asked for your participation in the discussion on the Premiership transfers talk page over Dan Lancaster, given he departed Leicester during the 21/22 season, he shouldn't be included in the 22/23 Premiership list, if you can give your reasoning for continued revertions in the discussion that would be good, otherwise I may possibly have to take this further for vandalism. Best wishes and thanks for your edits. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 19:19, 18 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Repeated removal of cited content at List of 2023–24 United Rugby Championship transfers edit

You have twice removed cited information I added at List of 2023–24 United Rugby Championship transfers. That's Disruptive editing. In between, an anonymous IP editor made the exact same removals. If that was you, that's sockpuppetry. Restore those edits, or I will report you for both. As per Wikipedia:Ownership of content, "No one, no matter what, has the right to act as though they are the owner of a particular article (or any part of it)." Nicknack009 (talk) 15:40, 13 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Strike that. The first time was another editor, so I have no reason to think the IP was you. Apologies for the confusion, I misread the edit history. But the content is cited and verifiable, and removing it is still disruptive editing. The only possible reason I can discern for the removal was that I manually wrote the citations and didn't use a citation template. Citation templates are not compulsory, and not liking the way a citation is formatted is no reason to remove valid content. I suggest you restore it.
