September 2020 edit

  Hello, I'm OrangeGarfield. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! OrangeGarfield (talk) 09:26, 17 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or significantly change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did with this edit to Islam in Tanzania. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Materialscientist (talk) 12:58, 17 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Namibia, you may be blocked from editing. Pgallert (talk) 04:47, 18 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

I’m sorry about that I had some sources but I failed to share them; before you warn me again you should know I also edited Botswana and Gabon with unmentioned sources Nlivataye (talk) 09:21, 18 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Nlivataye: The edits on those two are evidently bogus. ChrisTakey (talk) 02:31, 19 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

How about you read the notice on top of Democracy Index talk page edit

That notice was put specifically because so many people tried to change the index when thar misses the whole point, and yet we still get multiple editors that don't read it. That article is specifically about the report produced by the Economist Intelligence Unit, so any index other than the one done by EUI doesn't belong there. Changing the index is misrepresenting what EUI said. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1012:B052:47B9:0:47:E900:B201 (talk) 17:09, 30 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

January 2020 edit

Regarding this edit to Least developed countries: As you were told here a country should be removed only when it officially graduates from the list, after a decision by the proper UN body. Please do not make changes that are contradicted by the sources in the article. Sjö (talk) 09:40, 25 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Arusha edit

Please check the numbers and the source. It is possible that you confused the city with the region by the same name, and it looks like there is no 2020 census that you used as a reference. Please do not add information that is not supported by a reliable sõurce. Sjö (talk) 10:14, 14 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

June 2021 edit

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, you may be blocked from editing. Cordless Larry (talk) 18:25, 29 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Standard notice of discretionary sanctions edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in gender-related disputes or controversies or in people associated with them. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

April 2022 edit

  Hello, I'm TylerBurden. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Norway, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. TylerBurden (talk) 18:27, 24 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for April 25 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Criticism of religion, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ali Rizvi. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Samia Suluhu Hassan edit

Hi Nlivataye, I've reverted an edit you've made a few days ago because I believe it contains original research and a non-neutral point of view. If you think I've made a mistake or have questions about this revert, feel free to contact me on my talk page. Justiyaya 11:38, 22 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Are you even Tanzanian?🥵🥵🥵 Nlivataye (talk) 12:34, 22 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Please do not revert again without discussion, I will expand on the previous comment based on your revert:
This is a biography about a living person, and as such, we must be extremely firm about using reliable sources and keeping only referenced information (with exceptions).
While some of the information in your edit might be able to be included in the article, a majority of the information is in violation of our core policies, including not having a neutral point of view, including original research and including non-verifiable information. I did not give any specific examples of such in your edit in the previous message, potentially causing confusion, so I'll do so now:
While the comments made by Samia Suluhu Hassan seem to be referenced, comments made by others are less so.
  1. There is no section in the BBC article supporting the identity of Fatma Karume and the statement that they made
  2. No citations were given surrounding the banning of pornography
  3. No citation given seemed to be supporting the homophobic comments
Some of the phrases in your edit appeared to be based on original research, including:
  1. "people still use VPN to surpass the censoring like they did with Twitter under Magufuli when he banned it"
  2. "Tanzania will never"
Some of your edits appear to be opinionated, including:
  1. "renowned activist"
  2. "even when holding high office in the Land"
  3. "hasn’t actively carry out any anti gay crusade unlike her predecessor"
Based on the above, without significant work, the edit should not be published. Even with the issues mentioned cleaned up, I would still believe that the edit would be controversial and should likely be discussed on the talk page first. I would encourage you to make a section on the talk page of the article discussing this. As always, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page discussing this. If you decide to leave a message here, please (please use {{reply to|Justiyaya}} on reply) Justiyaya 16:13, 22 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

God there are many Twitter archives and so are YouTube videos and if someone is really serious about those references they can be easily found because some YouTube reference refuse to be attached here. And what I’m seeing is the same same drama where people who aren’t even on the ground of a particular country are the ones predominantly doing the edits but those of us who are actually on the ground and witness these things and follow up don’t get any attention and the fact that you don’t know Fatma Karume implies how you know little of Tanzanian politics. This has happened to me more than I could count and I’m tired. I would just be an observer coz all my edits are reverted even with references. So the floor is yours only you and all other Non Tanzanians or Africans can only do the editing I’m outta of here Nlivataye (talk) 16:20, 22 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, I accidentally published published the above message when it was half done, do you want to respond to the other sections in the comment? Justiyaya 16:24, 22 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
Also Twitter and YouTube are generally not reliable sources Justiyaya 16:40, 22 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

June 2022 edit

  Hello, I'm Sjö. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Talk:Islam in Africa that didn't seem very civil, so it may have been removed. Wikipedia is built on collaboration, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Sjö (talk) 07:20, 24 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

January 2023 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contribution(s). I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, while user talk pages permit a small degree of generalisation, other talk pages are strictly for discussing improvements to their associated main pages, and many of them have special instructions on the top. They are not a general discussion forum about the article's topic or any other topic. If you have questions or ideas and are not sure where to post them, consider asking at the Teahouse. Thanks. CMD (talk) 07:08, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from using talk pages for general discussion of this or other topics. They are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways, based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines; they are not for use as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See the talk page guidelines for more information.

June 2023 edit

  Hello, [1] was something I noticed now; I wanted to mention that this might not be considered appropriate. I would request you to kindly watch the generalisation bent. In the past, you have made comments such as this and this, which are also tendentious statements.

If I may request, do please consider having a more friendly discussion style (which you do seem to have in other discussions) and not walk on the border of getting blocked. Let me know if you may need any advise. Lourdes 08:12, 1 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Nick-D Pinging admin that issued block in March, this editor is continuing with accusatory comments violating WP:NOTFORUM, as well as statements above like: Either way I'm done go ahead and edit coz only you know everything and your fellow European folks.

I'm not gonna die if I can't edit Wikipedia. Either way I'm constantly stopped and my edits reverted regardless of what I edit or don't and now even in comments too. Plz do what you can. I have no power to stop either way and I won't beg ok. 41.59.117.165 (talk) 14:53, 1 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
You shouldn't forget to log in, otherwise your IP will be visible publicly. The reason you're reverted is because you're going against policy.
