June 2021

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to User:Binksternet/Bio, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Disambiguation link notification for June 27

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of hairstyles, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Latino. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 05:56, 27 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Adding birthdates without reliable sources

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living (or recently deceased) persons. Thank you. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 00:33, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

July 2021

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. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! Walter Görlitz (talk) 16:26, 15 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello ARH, you made several edits at Jennifer Freeman but have failed to add an edit summary. Jay ^(Talk) 06:12, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of Citation needed tags

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Jennifer Freeman, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. (See your edit.) Jay ^(Talk) 06:31, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Show preview

Please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, you can ask at the help desk. Jay ^(Talk) 16:11, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

DAB page entry links

Hello, ARH99. I'm JohnFromPinckney. I noticed your edits at the disambiguation page Linda (given name), and would like to point you to (yet another) guidance page, MOS:DABENTRY. This one is part of our Manual of Style, which is intended to keep our pages somewhat orderly for our readers. That MOS page specifies that we use only one blue link per line for disambuguation pages. I hope you'll you'll keep that in mind as you continue editing.

Also, I'd like to add to what Walter Görlitz and Jay said in July: I, too, wish you would use edit summaries when you edit. You seem to have ignored their requests, but these (ES) are invaluable for communicating your intentions and can help avoid misunderstandings, repeated reversions, and a lot of tension. Thanks, — JohnFromPinckney (talk / edits) 09:52, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Simple Times (2021 song) moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Simple Times (2021 song), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your edits on Clone High

I undid your last edits for for the following reasons:

You didn't use any edit summaries explaining why you undid the previous edits. Generally reverting other editor's edits without explanation means you consider them vandalism. They weren't. Note the edits you did revert had explanations as to why they were made - a general indication they weren't vandalism edits.
You undid edits that were made to improve the article by getting it to more closely conform to both the Wikipedia Manual of Style, MOS:BOLD, MOS:TV and MOS:TVLEAD for example, and the instructions for the infobox in template:Infobox television. I strongly recommend you read those articles specifically as to what goes in each of the parameters for the template.
If you do choose to deliberately go against the manual of style you need to explain why and how that improves the article. Best place is the article talk page.

You seem to generally be making good edits and that is appreciated. Please consider communicating more, though, and explaining what you are doing. Geraldo Perez (talk) 17:40, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

October 2021

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 19:31, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is not the first time this has been requested, see #July 2021. I do think the user has never come across this talk page, and I can see from the contributions, of the user having ever participated in a talk page discussion. Jay ^(Talk) 20:06, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please get in the habit of using Preview, as your long strings of small edits really clutter up the history page. Also, do not ever change a direct quotation, as you did at Mooo!, not to sanitize profanity nor for any other reason. Thank you, Jessicapierce (talk) 19:32, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Clara (given name), please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history, as well as helping prevent edit conflicts. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Thank you. Jessicapierce (talk) 19:32, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is not the first time this has been requested, see #Show preview. I do think ARH99 has never come across this talk page, and I can see from the contributions of the user, of never having participated in a talk page discussion. Jay (talk) 16:08, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please make sure you've looked through the Manual of Style, in particular, MOS:NOTUSA. A number of your edits have improperly used that abbreviation. —C.Fred (talk) 13:46, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

You have been unresponsive to messages, as shown by your edits to Bananas in Pyjamas. Also, your editing pattern is more than a little bizarre and I strongly suspect this is not your first account here. Graham87 07:01, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:Simple Times (Kacey Musgraves song)

Hello, ARH99. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Simple Times (Kacey Musgraves song), a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 12:02, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
