Date format

Hello, your regarding recent edits please review WP:DATERET and refrain from drive-by changes to date formats. Thank you. Doremo (talk) 09:25, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

April 2020

Hello, I'm Doremo. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Franz Vorraber have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse. You have been asked to look at WP:DATERET and have not responded. Your continued drive-by edits are a violation of Wikipedia policy. Doremo (talk) 09:32, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Reinhold Schneider. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be 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 noticeboards.
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. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. You are continuing to change date formats in articles in violation of WP:DATERET.

Dates format

Doremo's over-reaction to the rectification of US-style dates is quite unnecessary. Rather than cite WP:DATERET, which serves only to fossilise articles into a medieval style, Doremo might care to observe WP:EU/MOS, by which articles on European subjects can conform to a suitably contemporary style.Blynid Eton (talk) 10:02, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If you are proposing a change to how the Manual of Style handles date formats, you should do so at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers. The articles with the drive-by edits are not about the European Union. Doremo (talk) 10:09, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Enid, please refrain from changing date formats until you've read and understood the rules. These rules have kept the peace for more than a decade. Also, you might consider typing in something (at least one character will do it) to your user page, overleaf. That will stop your username appearing in red wherever you edit.

@Blynid Eton: I will indefinitely block you if you continue converting articles from one style to another, without first getting clear consensus. Someone with an account created on 12 April 2020 should not be quoting obscure links (WP:EU/MOS) to justify their disruption. Wikiprojects are great but they do not override site-wide guidelines based on past epic battles—the community is fully over arguing about dates. Johnuniq (talk) 09:04, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
