  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Cobra Kai. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Please stop listing cast members as series regulars on Cobra Kai articles without a proper source.

Hi, just leaving a non-template message in hopes to encourage some discussion. Per WP:BRD (Bold, Revert, Discuss) and the fact that your edits have been reverted my multiple editors, you need to discuss on the talk page if you wish to reinstate them. Until then, the staus quo should remain in place.
Secondly, to explain why I've reverted your edits, you may want to give MOS:TVCAST a quick read over. Just because a cast member has appeared in two, three, or sometimes more episodes does not automatically make them a recurring a cast member. Given the minor role, and only appearing in less than half the episodes, it makes sense to leave them in the guest section rather than recurring; especially when there were recurring characters who appeared in six or more episodes.
Finally, on the season five page and the parent page, if you're going to upgrade cast members to main status it requires a source, which can be the episodes once the air. Given the fact that they're in the poster, it's likely they will be, however, that can't be confirmed yet. Peyton List was in the season three poster, but did not receive main billing until the fourth season.
Hope this helps!   TheDoctorWho (talk) 21:25, 7 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Please stop moving actors from guest to recurring on Cobra Kai articles without consensus. As previously said, you MUST discuss on the talk page(s) if you disagree. Two episodes is only a guest star, any way you look at it. It does not matter how many episodes they were in previous or subsequent seasons, we only look at that individual season. TheDoctorWho (talk) 01:30, 15 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Duonaut. I noticed that in this edit to List of Law & Order: Organized Crime episodes, you removed content without adequately 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. Thank you. Duonaut (talk | contribs) 23:48, 28 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hello
Sorry I forget to type in. I figured since we got them physically in their own selective seasons. I figured I would take them out to leave more room. I hope that this is okay with you. Sorry for the inconvience.

Ah, okay. As long as the content is available there, then that's fine. Alternatively you might transclude the pages but that's a bit harder. Sorry for the invalid warning, then Duonaut (talk | contribs) 23:51, 28 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
I've actually merged the two season articles together per MOS:TVSPLIT. There's not nearly enough information to split into season articles yet. They need production information such as development, casting, and/or writing. Release information and additional reception information is also generally accepted for season articles. See Grey's Anatomy (season 17) for an example of what a season article should look like. Not to mention there's also a similar draft that has been declined and should not be bypassed.

Law & Order Episode Summaries

edit

Hi, another thing: episode summaries must be written in your own words and cannot be copied from elsewhere, that would be a copyright violation. This means it's impossible to summarize an episode until after it has aired because you can't have seen it yet so the content had to have been copied from elsewhere. Let me know if you have any questions! TheDoctorWho (talk) 02:12, 6 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (season 24), 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. TheDoctorWho (talk) 04:39, 14 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Hello Snipehype! Your additions to National Treasure: Edge of History have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

  • You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
  • Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
  • If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — YoungForever(talk) 22:34, 21 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
