World Cup
[edit]I appreciate your thanks for my revert. Sadly, it went straight back into the article. Please go to the article's talk page and help the article. HiLo48 (talk) 09:35, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

Important Notice
[edit]
Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding discussions about infoboxes and to edits adding, deleting, collapsing, or removing verifiable information from infoboxes, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.—SerialNumber54129 paranoia /cheap sh*t room 13:32, 15 July 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for the Important Notice on my own page. I see that you did not write the same thing on the page of the other person who maligned me by verbally attacking my intelligence, threatening to have me checked up, calling me naive, making fun of my username, etc. If I had known how to report him for not following all of Talk Page Guidelines (TPG)[1], I would have done so.

Not intended to make a mockery of any known Wikipedia editor unless you are stalking me.
[edit]How to become an editor with a bazillion edits to your credit? Read an article and make these kinds of changes:
- Find a dash in the date that looks like this - and change it to this – and leave the reason as: Changed hyphens to en dashes.
- Find a fancy apostrophe that looks like this ’ and change it to the Wikipedia sanctioned apostrophe that looks like this: '
- Find fancy quotation marks that look like these “ ” and change them to the Wikipedia sanctioned quotation marks: " "
- Find a comma like this: shelves," and move it like so: shelves",
- Make each spelling change one at a time and save it. Why make several changes and get only 1 edit to your credit?
Etc. When you have 90,000+ edits you will be a "big hitter" aka "heavy hitter" and can throw your weight around on the talk pages and call yourself "established" as opposed to newcomers who have less than 500 edits. "rolls eyes" CryMeAnOcean (talk) 04:56, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
- These are the three new experience levels:
- Newcomers - Registered editors who have fewer than 10 edits or 4 days of activity.
- Learners - Registered editors whose experience falls between "Newcomers" and "Experienced users." (corresponds to autoconfirmed status on English Wikipedia).
- Experienced users - Registered editors with more than 500 edits and 30 days of activity. (corresponds to extended confirmed status on English Wikipedia).[2] CryMeAnOcean (talk) 20:23, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
You're welcome for the edits to Anna Faris, it was a pleasure helping out.

[edit]
Please do not remove information from articles, as you did to Anthony Bourdain. Wikipedia is not censored, and content is not removed on the sole grounds of perceived offensiveness. Please discuss this issue on the article's talk page to reach consensus rather than continuing to remove the disputed material. If the content in question involves images, you also have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide the images that you may find offensive. Thank you. Dr. K. 07:16, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Val Kilmer, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Archer1234 (talk) 16:19, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
