March 2016 edit

  Hello, I'm Muboshgu. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Danny Duffy, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:32, 21 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi. The main tenet of Wikipedia is "verifiability, not truth". In order to include something here, we need to have a reliable source to support it. You may truly know Danny Duffy and you may be accurate, but we here need to be able to verify it. Thanks. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:02, 22 March 2016 (UTC)Reply


December 2016 edit

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at Social Club Misfits, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Walter Görlitz (talk) 18:33, 22 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

So let's say that the link to the band's home page does not change over the next five years, which you and I both know is not going to happen, how exactly does this WP:PRIMARY source help with anything. Why not wait until a WP:SECONDARY source picks up on the new album instead? Why not wait until someone other than the band thinks this is important enough to discuss before you start getting Wikipedia to do promotion for the band? And while we're at it, why not write something about the recording. You know, prose? Something tangible that a reader can respond with, "hey, I get an idea what this is about!"? That's the problem with adding potential recordings. The fact that the album may be delayed or never be released is an altogether different problem, and we can address that at the time.

Colin Kaepernick edit

Just a heads up, this edit kinds screwed the pooch with his NFL stats for this season. You listed him as having 437 rushing TDs for just this season. I fixed the TDs for the season and career, but you may wanna go and have a look and make sure it's all correct. (talk page stalker) CrashUnderride 13:43, 28 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Ben rothlisberger page edit

It won't let me edit the Ben Roethlisberger page but I noticed you can. Any chance you would correct the NFL record that says he has the most wins by a QB (51) in their first five seasons. This record is in fact shared by Matt Ryan (2008) and Russell Wilson (2016) with 56. Thanks in advance! Cabuser (talk) 23:30, 24 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Wes Welker edit

To prevent such band-and-forthing, please give an edit summary, and in this kind of case it is a good idea to give a link to the consensus. Poor admins (and Falcons supporters!) like me don't have anything else to go on. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 18:37, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Navboxes edit

You might not have been aware, but the convention in WikiProject NBA (and probably college basketball too) is to use the default title provided by {{Navboxes}} per WP:NBAEL. No need to add "awards", "championships", etc. to the title. Regards.—Bagumba (talk) 02:39, 30 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Edit summaries 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)

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. Thanks! UW Dawgs (talk) 17:17, 26 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

revert on Tanner Lee page? edit

what is up with the revert? I added the redshirt year along with the year he had to sit out in his first year at Nebraska. It clarifies his statistics box to show his full career. What issue do you have with that? Edday1051 (talk) 00:31, 2 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Manual of Style point edit

It is unnecessary and discouraged under the Manual of Style to add U.S., United States, etc. to any town or city in the United States that is identified by name and state. Also, certain big cities such as New York City only need that link alone.
