Please do not use styles that are unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Toronto Raptors. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. Johnny Au _{(talk/contributions)} 16:47, 21 November 2015 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in New York Knicks, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Specifically, WP:DATERANGE allows the eight-digit XXXX-XXXX year range format for sports. Thanks. —Bagumba (talk) 20:10, 21 November 2015 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you make disruptive edits to Wikipedia contrary to the Manual of Style, as you did at Toronto Raptors. Johnny Au _{(talk/contributions)} 02:58, 22 November 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that you recently removed some content from 1997–98 Chicago Bulls season  with this edit, without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 19:47, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I'm TheCaliforniaKansan. An edit that you recently made to Los Angeles Lakers seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! TheCaliforniaKansan (talk) 17:49, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use disruptive, inappropriate or hard-to-read formatting, as you did at Los Angeles Lakers, you may be blocked from editing. There is a Wikipedia Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. – Sabbatino (talk) 16:56, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

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)

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:

• User contributions
• Recent changes
• Watchlists
• Revision differences
• IRC channels
• Related changes
• New pages list
• Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! - ^theWOLFchild 22:53, 23 February 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 27

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2015–16 Los Angeles Lakers season, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Jordan Hill, Wesley Johnson and Ed Davis. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

July 2016

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Kobe Bryant. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be undone.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. A guy saved by Jesus (talk) 17:10, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

Links to team in NBA bios

You were mentioned at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_National_Basketball_Association#Linking_to_opponents_w.2F_team_article_or_season_article about the practice of linking to a season-specific team article in NBA bios. Feel free to comment there. In the meantime, can you hold off on similar edits until there is a consensus for that style? Thanks.—Bagumba (talk) 23:09, 16 July 2016 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from 2000 NBA Finals into 1999–2000 Los Angeles Lakers season. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 13:17, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 27

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 1999–2000 Miami Heat season, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tim James. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Changes to basketball game log formats

As I have explained in edit summaries, I don't think the changes you are making to the game logs are improvements. They are not as aesthetically pleasing, and break style with the rest of the articles. Given that this template is widely used, you should seek WP:CONSENSUS to make these changes, rather than WP:edit warring to try to force them in against consensus. Continuing to do so will likely lead to you being blocked. Please start a discussion on the talk page explaining why you think these changes are an improvement.

Disambiguation link notification for October 10

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2003–04 Indiana Pacers season, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Anthony Johnson, Fred Jones and Scott Pollard. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

NBA team season pages

Please do not add or re-add the | misc = parameter to the infobox in teams' season pages as you did on the 2001–02 New Jersey Nets season page, because that parameter has been removed from the infobox for quite some time and it is non existent. – Sabbatino (talk) 09:19, 19 July 2018 (UTC)
