Re: Max Mirnyi

You say that Russian does not have Romanisation diacritics. In what respect? Which system of conversion do Russian people use? Rovingrobert (talk) 10:13, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi! Can you add the green tribe color for the third tribe for game changers? Here is a link for reference: http://www.planetbuff.com/cbs-survivor-buff/survivor-244/survivor-34-game-changers-mamanuca-islands-tavua-tribe-green.html VietPride10 (talk) 16:46, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

March 2017

Please stop making disruptive edits.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, 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, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Please stop editing in large chunks of incoherent English. It is disruptive. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 00:34, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 7

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2016 US Open (tennis), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page WTA. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Legends matches French Open

Hello. Please tell me, why do you erase Legends doubles matches from day by day summaries in 2017 French Open. In every Grand Slam, in every year, those matches are played and are shown in Main Courts. Kleyw (talk) 12:51, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Because Australian Open and US Open summaries don't include the legends tournament. ApprenticeFan ^work 12:52, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Curious that only in the US Open that happens. But if you see, in past years in Australian Open, French Open and Wimbledon is posted. Kleyw (talk) 15:01, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

June 2017

Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia pages, such as those you made to American Airlines Flight 77, even if you intend to fix them later. Your edits have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. David J Johnson (talk) 12:53, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from 2016 US Open (tennis) into 2017 US Open (tennis). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 12:05, 11 July 2017 (UTC)

August 2017

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to The Amazing Race Canada 5, 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. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 20:51, 5 August 2017 (UTC)

Route Map

Do you have a map for The Amazing Race Canada 5? Now that all the destinations are known :)

TAR China 4 (urgent)

Hello, would you like to help out on the updates for the TAR China 4 (as well as the upcoming seasons)? As you can see, there has been little to almost no progress on the race summary itself and there has been a lack of constitency. (I saw the Canada 5 and there were good progress with the summary being prepared out in, comparing China 4) I have also helped out in maintenance on a few articles that I had interest with (like Politics and Singapore-related articles). I noticed that you helped some updates for the TAR 9, and because that I might had made mistakes in their articles (which I'm doing at the time). I'm thinking that asking help from you would be a good option.

I had previously help out changing the race summary templates for TAR Seasons 6, 7, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15, 17, 20 and 22; as well as updating the penalty refrences like the ones seen in the latest season (Season 29, with a few exceptions that I left out with). I also had completed some missing recaps for TAR China 2 and the Vietnam 4 (but not Vietnam 5 yet, I've still pending resources and i'm not really proficient at that language). I just require for some check-and-balance on their work and keeping the articles consistent throughout.

Thanks! (203.78.15.149 (talk) 08:31, 21 September 2017 (UTC)) (updated on 203.78.15.149 (talk) 10:11, 25 September 2017 (UTC))

S35 Merge

Hi, Can you make the tribe color for the Season 35 merge? The tribe name is Solewa. https://www.cbspressexpress.com/images/photos/thumbnail/2017/10/30/110130_24293b.jpg https://www.cbspressexpress.com/images/photos/thumbnail/2017/10/30/110130_24158b.jpg VietPride10 (talk) 13:11, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

Do not report the future as history

Hello. Please do not report future events and dates as something that has already happened. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. On September 11, you cannot write that something happened on September 12. When you update tennis rankings in the infoboxes, never include future, projected rankings there. The infobox can only contain real, official, existing ranking. That is, the ranking you can see on the WTA or the ATP websites. Until they are actually updated on Monday, do not update the infoboxes with future dates, because the new rankings do not exist yet, the old ones still apply. Thanks.—J. M. (talk) 23:57, 10 September 2016 (UTC)

Please read my message above. And stop doing it.—J. M. (talk) 14:20, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Serena Williams. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been undone.

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. Again, don't write about things that have not happened yet as if they have already happened. The WTA rankings have not yet changed, Serena Williams is still ranked number 1. When the rankings change we can change the article. Until then leave it alone. Meters (talk) 05:12, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

Meters, it was true. The rankings have actually changed. ApprenticeFan ^work 07:17, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

It was not true when you made the change. I checked the WTA page and they still listed Williams at number one. You have been warned about these premature edits multiple times. Stop making them. Wait until the sources we cite show the change. Meters (talk) 21:38, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

Seriously. Stop doing it It is strictly forbidden, wrong, and if you do not stop doing it, you will be reported and possibly blocked from editing..—J. M. (talk) 13:59, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

I believe there is competence issues with this user unfortunately. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 23:01, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

Once again: Stop doing it. Stop updating rankings prematurely when the official WTA rankings have not been updated yet. If you do not stop your disruptive edits, you can be blocked from editing.—J. M. (talk) 15:47, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

J. M. (talk · contribs) I did revert edits of Julia Görges and CoCo Vandeweghe to actual official rankings by edited of "new rankings" as were made by shitty IP editors. Please wait till the official rankings to be released on 11/06/2017. ApprenticeFan ^work 16:04, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

I was talking about your edit on Ashleigh Barty. Your edits of Julia Görges and CoCo Vandeweghe came after my warning, so I'm not sure what you are trying to tell me with your last sentence. But yes, please keep reverting those ignorant edits, that's the way to go. (You can also leave them a message on their talk page). Thanks.—J. M. (talk) 16:13, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 18

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited The Bachelor (season 22), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page KTRK (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).
