Edit summaries / POV

[edit]

Please use edit summaries to explain the changes you make to pages to let other editors know what you are doing. There is a box for such summaries just above the buttons for saving changes. Also, please familiarize yourself with Wikipedia policies on common naming practices, neutral point of view, and gaining consensus for edits. You are making numerous controversial edits without discussing what you are doing. Much of that work is likely to be reverted, and if you continue without discussion, you risk being blocked from editing. Laszlo Panaflex (talk) 17:08, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Laszlo Panaflex:. Two years later and the user still doesn't use edit summaries 80% of the time, or look for consensus in edits. I suggest, if this continues, taking it to ANI. - R9tgokunks 00:18, 31 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Image tagging for File:SW epVIII logo.png

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:SW epVIII logo.png. You don't seem to have said where the image came from or who created it. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 18:31, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Two suggestions

[edit]

As a courtesy to other editors, I would like you to consider two suggestions:

  • Please read WP:ES carefully, and make sure you always make an edit summary when you are editing articles.
  • Please read WP:MINOR carefully, and make sure to click the "Minor" button only when the edit is truly minor.

In both cases, it would make it much easier for other editors to understand what you are doing, and why. --T*U (talk) 19:26, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Pirates of the Caribbean (film series), disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Betty Logan (talk) 07:55, 31 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:Navalny in Yaroslavl.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Navalny in Yaroslavl.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Train2104 (t • c) 23:49, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit

[edit]

[1] had me perplexed: What was that supposed to mean? A joke? My editing in that article then was somewhat clumsy — due to the fact that i was using a desktop with no functional ″copy/paste″ capacity.

ArbCom 2017 election voter message

[edit]

Hello, CapLiber. Voting in the 2017 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23.59 on Sunday, 10 December. All users who registered an account before Saturday, 28 October 2017, made at least 150 mainspace edits before Wednesday, 1 November 2017 and are not currently blocked are eligible to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2017 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 18:42, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Thirty Years' War, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Battle of Lützen (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:20, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

User page harassment

[edit]

Hi CapLiber. I noticed that on your user page, a user named Dobrom left a rather rude message to you. It was inappropriate for the user to leave their message on your user page (if anywhere, it should have been here on your user talk page). Their edit summary was doubly inappropriate, and if I had seen it today, I would have strongly considered blocking the user for harassment. All of which is to say: please feel free to remove that text from your user page if you want. Mz7 (talk) 19:40, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You need to slow your roll when it comes to editing these articles. You have made hundreds of unexplained edits to these articles (the lack of an edit summary is an issue in and of itself.) without attempts for discussion on the talk pages of the articles. The style edits are also a problem. Please seek consensus(WP:CONENSUS) for them first. A few other editors are also changing the style so It's nothing but a never-ending saga of people trying to change the style of the tables, etc. Also, stop adding "Untitled Boba Fett film." There have been no official announcements of this film by Lucasfilm yet. Any addition of this is considered WP:OR and I will remove it immediately and issue a warning. Start taking to the talk page if you want to totally revamp these articles. I will message other users who do this when I see the edits. - R9tgokunks 00:21, 31 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

September 2018

[edit]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Hebrew Bible, without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. power~enwiki (π, ν) 14:32, 2 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Specifically, you reversed a move made by consensus after discussion within the last two months at Talk:Hebrew Bible. Largoplazo (talk) 17:28, 2 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A page you started (Timeline of the Ukrainian crisis) has been reviewed!

[edit]

Thanks for creating Timeline of the Ukrainian crisis, CapLiber!

Wikipedia editor Edaham just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

I've reviewed this article and for the time being, as it's unsourced and lacks context, I've changed it to a redirect. I suggest adding this info (if verifiable) as a section in the parent article first, where more editors will be able to give it attention. If it becomes a large enough section, you may want to start a discussion at the talk page of the parent article regarding a fork. This is particularly important as the information may possibly be controversial and we should avoid small forks which allow the isolated addition of information which may be contended in other articles.

Notice

[edit]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have recently shown interest in Eastern Europe. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect: any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or any page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

[edit]

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Hello, CapLiber. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Russian Civil War infobox".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

August 2019

[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Russian Revolution; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. RolandR (talk) 10:02, 29 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@CapLiber: Я заметил вашу активность на иностранной вики (статьи, связанные с Российской республикой, Комучем, РФДР и другие) и предлагаю вам обсудить эту тему. Напишите вашу точку зрения и ваши аргументы, а я напишу свои. Вместе придём к консенсусу. Doomer1558 (talk) 14:57, 27 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Historical edits

[edit]

CapLiber I have big complaints about your edits on the history of Russia. You are using facts that do not have reliable sources. I ask you to be more responsible in this matter. I also criticize your editing style: you edit an article many times, although it can be done in one try. You may be trying to make it difficult to undo your edits this way.

Russia, Crimea and Southern Kuriles on the map

[edit]

День добрый. Обратите, пожалуйста, внимание, подобная правка сильно расходится с ВЕС, поскольку ставит на один уровень претензии Украины (поддержанные большинством государств - членов ООН на уровне решений органов этой организации) и претензии Японии, таковой поддержки не получившей (о чём я уже говорил, когда отменял ранее эту же вашу правку). Можете также в ООНовский pocketbook статистики посмотреть: они исключают из России Крым (который не признают частью РФ), но не Южные Курилы, т.к. дают в качестве площади страны докрымскую (17 098 246 км2), но не "безюжнокурильскую" (не вычитают из этой площади ещё и Южные Курилы). Карта, опять же, показывает ЮК российскими. Итого: не надо возвращать карту, помечающие ЮК светло-зелёными. Этот цвет — он либо для неконтролируемого либо для международно непризнанного. Южные Курилы на российской карте не подпадают ни туда ни туда. С уважением, --Seryo93 (talk) 12:19, 3 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict...please fill out my survey?

[edit]

Hello :) I am writing my MA dissertation on Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict, and I noticed that you have contributed to those pages. I will be looking at the process of collaborative knowledge production on the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the effect it has on bias in the articles. This will involve understanding the profiles and motivations of editors, contention/controversy and dispute resolution in the talk pages, and bias in the final article.

For more information, you can check out my meta-wiki research page, where I will be posting my findings when I am done.

I would greatly appreciate if you could take 5 minutes to fill out this quick survey before 8 AUGUST 2021!

Thanks so much,

Uebermarginal moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Uebermarginal, 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. scope_creepTalk 15:43, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon

Your recent editing history at Israel shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in being blocked from editing—especially, as the page in question is currently under restrictions from the Arbitration Committee, if you violate the one-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than one revert on a single page with active Arbitration Committee restrictions within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the one-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the one-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Hello, CapLiber. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Uebermarginal".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Introduction to contentious topics

[edit]

You have recently edited a page related to Eastern Europe or the Balkans, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
