Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Discretionary sanctions notification

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to, any gender-related dispute or controversy and people associated with the same, all broadly construed, 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.

December 2018

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Captain Eek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!} 19:42, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

July 2022

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Apocalypticism, 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. Not only you single-handedly decided to delete this section in its entirety without saying a word on the Talk page, but also forgot to read the cited quote where it is explicitly mentioned that far-right accelerationists intend to "accelerate" the future end of the world. Check out the cited sources next time. GenoV84 (talk) 21:18, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Concerning your edit summary at Great Railroad Strike of 1877

Please re-read the source text, in particular: "[...] the local police proved incapable or unwilling to protect workers willing to move freight trains, the governor mobilized the local militia, who often sympathized with the strikers." & "the militia, sympathetic to the strikers, withdrew". You are correct that the information concerning the Feds getting the trains going again is not *explicitly* stated in the source. That info pre-existed my edit and had been sourced to the History website,^[1], which though not an RS, is corroborated by the Oxford source ("the strike moved on"). If you want to be helpful on that page, I would suggest working on the unsourced parts. Thank you. -- SashiRolls ^{🌿 · 🍥} 13:12, 2 March 2024 (UTC) -- SashiRolls ^{🌿 · 🍥} 13:12, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
