I corrected an error. The residency was not "his". He did a residency, not he did his residency. AGrandeFan (talk) 21:58, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The warning referred to your previous two edits, not the one about the residency. General Ization ^Talk 21:58, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I was going to correct that (take it out) because, on second thought, it wasn't too good but you beat me to it. AGrandeFan (talk) 21:59, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

October 2017

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted.

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. Jennica✿ / ^talk 21:27, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is your only warning; if you introduce jokes into articles again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. livelikemusic talk! 21:41, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any jokes. Please be specific. Thank you. Every edit was made in good faith. I've looked over the past 24 hours. AGrandeFan (talk) 15:58, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Obscure warnings in ill-fitting template-speak on this page

I have to agree with AGrandeFan about the warnings on this page. Jennica, it's meaningless to let Twinkle post some vagueness about "disruptive editing" with no specifics at all. AGrandeFan had made some 30 edits in the 24 hours before your warning which, you have now explained on your page, was about this or this. That was anything but clear from the robot talk about unconstructive edits and recommendations to read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page — sheesh. It's better not to warn at all than to do it in ill-fitting template-speak. The templates have their uses, mainly for posting on driveby vandals, but they are not useful without specifics, when posted on a busy editor such as this. And what was the joke, Livelikemusic? It must have been something bad, since you posted a level 4 warning. AGrandeFan has asked you here, and on your page, civilly (I'm not sure I could have been equally polite in the same situation). I see you haven't edited since, so I can't blame you for not replying yet — I'm assuming you intend to do that as soon as you start editing — but just think how much better, and less frustrating for AGrandeFan, it would have been if you had supplied a simple diff, or other explanation of some kind, with your warning. Another time, please do that. Bishonen | talk 18:33, 3 October 2017 (UTC).[reply]

It was this edit that I did not find appropriate — while I am sure it was not meant to be negative, it did come off wrong. And given they had received warnings prior, I did not feel it right for what was happening and felt a bit condescending on behalf of the user. Was the template in-use potentially wrong? Possibly. Am I sorry for warning for something I felt was not appropriate? No. Especially when they'd been warned prior for not being constructive in their editing. But, we are all human and mistakes are prone to happen. livelikemusic talk! 23:34, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
