page history

Hi,
I realised you had some incidents with other user, and then you blanked your talkpage. It is okay, sometimes mistakes happen when user is new, but your activity is looking a little suspicious to me. It is completely okay to blank your own talkpage; but be advised that you can never delete history of pages, so an experienced user can always see what was posted to any talkpage ever.

I would suggest you to edit on "textual" basis for a while, till you understand wikipedia policies. You are the first ever user that I've seen in last 7-8 years whose ban was lifted so early/easily regarding such case(s). So please make your upcoming edits carefully to avoid being blocked again. If you have any doubts/questions, feel free to ask me or any experienced user. Thanks. —usernamekiran(talk) 22:04, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

ok, I only blanked it so when I clicked on my talk page I would not need to go down to the bottom.

it is alright to blank your talkpage. :-)
but rather than deleting, it is preferred to archive it. You can find more information/help about it here: WP:ARCHIVE.

Also, please sign your comments by using four ~~~~ —usernamekiran(talk) 22:58, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello ANDREWs13, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to The King of Queens have been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• 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. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• 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 can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

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, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. AussieLegend (✉) 09:25, 16 May 2017 (UTC)

The King of Queens

I've had to revert your changes at The King of Queens again. As I explained last time, continuity errors are non-notable trivia,[1] so don't really deserve a place in the article. This aside, as I explained, imdb is not a reliable source so it can't be used as a reference. Poobala.com is also not a reliable source, so it can't be used either. It's actually a self-published source, a private website setup by someone with no clear editorial policy, and we don't allow those. --AussieLegend (✉) 14:35, 16 May 2017 (UTC)

May 2017

Your addition to Last Man Standing (U.S. TV series) has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. AussieLegend (✉) 05:38, 21 May 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Moxy. I noticed that you made a change to an article, 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. Moxy (talk) 15:04, 27 May 2017 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 13:39, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

Your edits

The reason for reversion is that your edits have been poor quality, add superfluous information we already have in other articles, or is from other sites with no copyrights acknowledged at all. Stop it; the next steps for further edits like this may result in a block. Nate • (chatter) 21:59, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

This is your final warning; stop adding superfluous information already in other articles to main articles. You will be facing a block if you do not cease. Nate • (chatter) 23:45, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

@user:Mrschimpf I do not understand there is a template to add a link to the main article. it is very common on Wikipedia to have a section then link the main article. I do not think this is a rule, if it is please link it to my. this is the first I have ever heard of it. You must be mistaken.— Preceding unsigned comment added by ANDREWs13 (talk • contribs)

It should be short and concise. Yours is overly lengthy and again, has nothing to do with the original topic of the article and reads as a copy of the main article being linked from. Nate • (chatter) 00:30, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

Also, asking a user whose edits I questioned in the past to help block me isn't going to help your case; it can be considered harassment. Improve your editing behavior. Nate • (chatter) 00:32, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

Ok,I understand now.— Preceding unsigned comment added by ANDREWs13 (talk • contribs)

(edit conflict) There are lots of templates and they are not always appropriate. The article Wonder Woman (TV series) starts off with "For the 2011 television pilot see Wonder Woman (2011 TV pilot)," so there's no much of a need to link to it a second time. See MOS:OVERLINK. Also, the article is specifically about the late 1970s TV series, not just any TV series.

You need to quit adding unsourced information. All new information should cite at least one professionally-published mainstream academic or journalistic source. Your claims here about a CW series contains no source.

And lastly, you need to sign your talk page posts, even if it's on this page. There are already instructions on this page explaining how to do so. Ian.thomson (talk) 00:38, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

They did the first time i fergot to add them back in when I put back my edits.--ANDREWs13 (talk) 00:42, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

Would it be ok if i remove the one at the top, then go into more detail at the bottom.--ANDREWs13 (talk) 00:49, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

Stop posting in the middle of other people's comments, it's rude and confuses other users. For example, here, you made it look like you said "There are lots of templates and they are not always appropriate..." I'm assuming you were just not paying attention and made a mistake but that still raises concerns about your ability to edit.

As for the link at the beginning, you'd have to get consensus for that at the article's talk page. However, I don't think that's going to happen, as the article is about the '70s TV series (the primary topic from which other Wonder Woman TV shows would be distinguished) and no other series has even aired. If there were two or more Wonder Woman TV shows that both ran for at least a season, then it would be necessary to distinguish them by having "Wonder Woman (TV series)" distinguish between the 1975 and a modern series. But there has not yet been a modern series (failed attempts do not count). Ian.thomson (talk) 01:02, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

@Ian.thomson About my "ability to edit", I use visual editing mode Ian.thomson. That mode is not available on user or talk pages.--ANDREWs13 (talk) 13:28, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

Ian was talking about whether your grasp on policies should allow you to have the "ability to edit", not which tools you use to edit pages, which is saying to me that you absolutely need to know what you're doing before you edit any further. Once again I had to revert this, where you added another fair-use image with no use in the article and which overloads the article with too many images. This edit said the lede was too short for what was a pretty standard lede form for low-profile films. And now there's this and this, which you are basing on media reports and not an actual announcement by the network that Rodriguez has joined the network (it's Memorial Day weekend; ABC's PR is off until Tuesday and we can wait for a better story to come out about what his role will be with ABC.

Basically; take down your edits. Stick to minor grammar corrections and items which you can appropriately source for now. And keep the use of images in articles to a minimum. At this point, like Ian said, you need to have more focus in order to keep your edits sticking here. Nate • (chatter) 01:29, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Andy richter on conan couch.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Andy richter on conan couch.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. – Train2104 (t • c) 17:43, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

"Typo"

Typo means "Typographical error." In other words, something was not spelled or typed correctly. It does not mean "there is a word missing," "this was unclear," or "content needed to be rearranged," as you used "typo" here, here, here, or here. Ian.thomson (talk) 20:39, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

December 2017

Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at Post Malone.

• 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.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 16:34, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

  I did not do anything wrong. I am not in a content dispute, I only made one edit. ANDREWs13 (talk)

March 2018

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Fox News, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. Dr. K. 21:18, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

April 2018

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Finn Wolfhard ‎. Meters (talk) 03:12, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

And please stop using the "minor" edit tag on these edits. TSee WP:MINOR Meters (talk) 03:15, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

@Meters, How was that vandalism in any way! All I did was make a mistake and link the wrong thing. User:ANDREWs13 (talk)

Your recent edits have been disruptive. The one I undid appeared to be intentional, sneaky vandalism rather than a simple mistake since you changed correct material to be obviously incorrect. It's difficult to see how you could possibly claim that a movie is an adaptation of itself rather than the book as an honest mistake. Your recent previous edits were similarly questionable (moving TV productions out of the TV section and into the film section, and reverting something after falsely claiming that no reason had been given for the edit).
