 Tips
  • Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
  • It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
  • If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
  • Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
  • When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
  • If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
  • Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.


Recent edit reversion

edit

In this edit here, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of our copyright policy.

I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted. If that information is not sufficient to explain the situation, please ask.

I do occasionally make mistakes. We get hundreds of reports of potential copyright violations every week, and sometimes there are false positives, for a variety of reasons. (Perhaps the material was moved from another Wikipedia article, or the material was properly licensed but the license information was not obvious, or the material is in the public domain but I didn't realize it was public domain, and there can be other situations generating a report to our Copy Patrol tool that turn out not to be actual copyright violations.) If you think my edit was mistaken, please politely let me know and I will investigate. S Philbrick(Talk) 17:54, 18 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm JML1148. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Skanderbeg, 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. JML1148 (Talk | Contribs) 04:12, 21 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

That warn was a mistake, so disregard that, but please, when editing, remember to write in a NPOV (no point of view) manner and not use bare links as citations, as you have. JML1148 (Talk | Contribs) 04:16, 21 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Your edit to Night Attack at Târgoviște has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. — Diannaa (talk) 14:45, 22 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Tendentious editing

edit

Please stop doing it, or you will soon be blocked from editing. Use only reliable sources. I have reverted your edit to Persecution of Christians, as it did not conform to either of those Wikipedia principles. Bishonen | tålk 05:36, 22 December 2022 (UTC).Reply

Neutral point of view.

edit

  Hello, I'm Objective3000. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit seemed less than neutral and has been removed. In particular, all of your edits appear to paint Muslims as mass murderers. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. O3000, Ret. (talk) 12:56, 23 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Blocked

edit

You have ignored all warnings on this page, perhaps because you're not aware that the page exists. I have blocked you indefinitely for persistent disruptive editing and lack of communication. If you answer me below, and undertake to edit neutrally and avoid copyright violations, you can perhaps be unblocked. Bishonen | tålk 15:23, 23 December 2022 (UTC).Reply

I was about to post this

 

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

A bit late. Slatersteven (talk) 15:43, 23 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, I just checked back here on the way to ANI. Every edit on every article by this user is anti-Muslim. O3000, Ret. (talk) 15:46, 23 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
I only did spot-checks, but I noticed the bias as well. Bishonen | tålk 16:30, 23 December 2022 (UTC).Reply
