Read first till the end
[edit]Hello, Eofren. It seems to me you are too fast. Why don't you read the article "Bernardin Frankopan" till the end and then make a comment. THERE ARE some references or sources in it! Regards, Silverije (talk) 20:47, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
- References are given in the form of "External links". For further explanation please reed: Wikipedia:Citing sources. Maybe the number of external links is not sufficient (in fact they are almost never sufficient), but I'll put some more in the next days. ...and please, be polite, don't say to any user (or anyone else) that he lies, if it is not true. Regards, Silverije (talk) 15:49, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

Changing block notice
[edit]I see that at User talk:Etruscantourism you replaced a block notice with a different one. I am sure you did this with good intentions, probably because you thought a mistake had been made, but there are several reasons why this was not, in fact, a good thing to do. Firstly, apart from a few situations such as vandalism or libel, it is normally considered bad practice to change another user's post to a talk page. This applies even to minor changes such as correcting spelling, as the user may find it annoying that you have "corrected" them, and also because such "corrections" are sometimes not corrections at all, as for example changes between British and American English. Also, you left my signature in place, which effectively means that you were attributing to me a post which I never made. Misrepresenting another editor's edits is unacceptable, even if you believe that what you show is what the other editor should have done. Even in the few cases where it is justifiable to alter another user's talk page post, I cannot think of a situation where it would be acceptable to leave another user's signature on a post which they did not in fact make. In addition to this, my edit was not a mistake. I was well aware that, despite having given the block log entry as a spamusername block, in the talk page notification I mentioned only the promotional editing, not the username. This was a deliberate and considered decision. Also, block notices have to be substituted, but you did not do that. As I said above, I am sure you did this with the best of intentions, but in such a case it would be better to contact the person whose post you think should be changed, and suggest that they might like to change it, rather than changing it yourself.

[edit]Hi. When you recently edited Alemañol, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages German and Spanish (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).
