February 2015 edit

  Hi there! 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 Dennis L. Montgomery 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. Thanks! —BarrelProof (talk) 01:36, 5 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Regarding your repetition of the edit removing some content from the article Dennis L. Montgomery, this time with an edit summary saying "Not Relevant", how can a person's spouse, children, and place of residence not be relevant to their biography? —BarrelProof (talk) 04:40, 5 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, PageOneEditor, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia. Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who use multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please remember to disclose these connections. Thank you. Meters (talk) 06:09, 16 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

 

Your recent editing history at Dennis L. Montgomery shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's 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. See BRD for 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Sockpuppet investigation edit

 

Hi. An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/71.178.50.47, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.

Your privacy edit

If you think there is a legal or privacy issue involving people being named in articles, please contact the Wikimedia legal staff at legal@wikimedia.org - The rest of us are volunteer editors and we simply don't have the knowledge or capability to deal with an issue like this.

Blocked as a sockpuppet edit

Write and Earn (or just help out) edit

Hello there. This is the first time I've asked, so I'll get straight to the point:

About a year ago, a certain Wikipedian thought he could motivate people to build a knowledge base such as Wikipedia but about twice as fast by incorporating a per-author empowerment strategy. His idea was to mirror Wikipedia and allows anyone to monetize her article and reap 100% revenue thereof.

So, around this time last year this project was up. At the outset, there were at least two features that distinguished Wikiafripedia from Wikipedia, viz: dedicated namespaces for scholars original research and his empowerment strategy. But there were many similarities, such as the website software, editorial principle, governing structure, mission and vision.

However, his project has since been struggling as there are very few contributes to it because, unlike Wikipedia this dude didn't start Wikiafripedia at the beginning of the millennia and also lacked the capacity to advertise it or reach out to a huge number of potential editors like you. Yet he hasn't given up.

He likes Wikipedia but he thinks if people were empowered/motivated/encouraged financially they could solved the current shortage of quality content from third-war regions like South-East Asia or Africa in less time since empowered-people would more likely want to contribute more. It's also Important to motivate people because, the kind of writing required for these kind of projects takes people's time and for most people especially those in these regions, time is penny. To this light, we need your support.

Today, we need you to create an article to grow the knowledge base of Wikiafripedia. 90% of our readers don't write; they simply look the other way. You may not be our reader but we need you because you believe knowledge should be made free and accessible. But if you are an exceptional reader who have already written, we sincerely thank you.

If everyone reading this write at least an article, we could augment the knowledge based of the world that will empower many people financially yet freely accessible to anyone and keep Wikiafripedia thriving for years. A bit of your time is all we need, it's a little awkward for us to ask you this Today, as we are sure you are busy and we don't mean to interrupt you.

However, we encourage you to make a contribution today towards a win-win end of simultaneously growing Wikiafripedia encyclopedia and at the same time empowering yourself passively.

People think we will regret making Wikiafripedia a non-profit and sharing revenue with authors. But Wikiafripedia is a place to encourage learning, not a place to tax people. It unites all of us who love knowledge: contributors, readers, the donors and advertisers who keep us thriving. Show the world that all the knowledge and experience it afforded you to live your life matters by adding also your light to it in the form of a well written-neutral-article in a subject area that you have knowledge and access to the information of, so that anyone may benefit from your knowledge.

We know most people will want to ignore this message, and that it can be tricky to make a contribution to even a course you believed in without the right resources, as one cannot give what she does not have. That's why we are giving you all 100% advertising revenue from your content.

There will be no deduction in your earnings, for each content you authored (100%) and this terms is only subject to review every ten years since 2019. We wouldn't even know how much you're earning from your preferred advertisers for the Wikiafripedia content you authored as that will only be known to you, we can only guess if we look at the performance of the content; our work is to help implement your ads codes securely. Your earnings progress will largely depends on the number of contents you've created (the more the better) and the level of publicity you've given to each of them, as we enforced strict contents quality and SEO globally.

Notwithstanding... We know that people might still ignore this message, and that it can be tricky to make time to contribute what you know for the benefits of others. But our hope is that, if you can write/edit articles for free on Wikipedia, why not with an incentive on Wikiafripedia? I hope you will think about how valuable it is to have access to a source of free, open knowledge that would Keep giving you money instead of asking. This is the first feature that distinguished Wikiafripedia from other encyclopedias.

If Wikiafripedia have provided you valued worth of knowledge/information/reflection this year, please take time out of your busy schedule to contribute to it growth. It is NOT money we ask but that you contribute your knowledge or technical expertise to help make free from copyright educational resources available and accessible to all in abundance. Imagine a world where everyone can freely share in the sum of all knowledge? That's our mission, our vision statement.


In a nutshell:
At Wikiafripedia, you will be able to monetize contents you've created for an undeductable (100%) revenue to you and you alone. What's your thoughts about that?

Please speak your mind.


Cheers
