Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Dave Jones (football manager) with this edit, did not appear to be constructive, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. —cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 20:38, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

B-Class

Hi, first of all I want to thank you for your contributions to the Badshot Lea article because you've helped make it much better; however I've had to revert your change in classification. The stub, start and C classes are all have fairly loose & ambiguous requirements, the B-class criteria is much more specific. My main concern is with sourcing, an article with unsourced sections can't really be considered B class. I'm also concerned about the weighting given to crime in the lead paragraph; the lead should summarise the content of the article so details of all the crimes that took place in Badshot Lea isn't really acceptable. A section on crime may be able to be included somewhere within the main article text though. If you want to get the article up to B class then a good place to start is by looking at "How to write about settlements".

If you have any further questions, or fancy some help then just leave a message here or on my talk page. --Mrmatiko (talk) 07:34, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. When you recently edited Badshot Lea, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Conservative Party and Jeremy Hunt (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Ibrox - a suggestion

Just a thought. Would it be better to say that Ibrox is the home of Newco Rangers rather than The Rangers Football Club Ltd. The sond name is speculation because we don't know if that is the name that will eventually be adopted, but Newco Rangers can be easily referenced as being the common name used to describe the new club.

Wikipedia is not the place for speculation. Don't edit war please, and don't make changes without introducing a valid reference, as you did at Celtic FC. Controversial changes should be suggested at article talk and a consensus reached before introducing them. Let me know if you need any clarification or advice. --John (talk) 19:19, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Rangers presence in that league is not confirmed. The decision not only has to be ratified by the SFA but Rangers have made it clear they don't know if that will happen as SPL2 was mooted. Herald reporting and i Quote Everyone in that room heard that Stewart Regan informe Charles Green that there's no way "Rangers" will be in D3.

Be Warned - Rangers FC - an attempt to push through a controversial 'same club' approach

Hello. You have contributed to the Newco Rangers article so I thought yuou should be made aware that an attempt is being made to undermine this article by pushing through a 'same club' approach despite many of us believing this is heavily biased and very selective use of the sources. You may wish to follow what is proposed at the Talk:Rangers F.C/Sandbox. Spiritofstgeorge (talk) 12:48, 1 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Formal mediation has been requested

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Rangers F.C.". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 16 August 2012.

Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.

Your edits to Jimmy Saville

Your recent editing history at Jimmy Saville shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page 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 three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Baroness Warsi

Your edit to Baroness Sayeeda Warsi has been reverted. There has been a long discussion and debate over this controversial section. Independent editors agree it should be left out. It is not a well-referenced section, it is biased POV/OR and contentious which is why it was removed. It seeks to make claims which are not referenced, this is not acceptable. This has been documented on the article talk page. Please do not repost the edit, please see the talk page. Thank you Christian1985 (talk) 23:02, 16 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I wanted to let you know that I removed one of your edits on the page as it was clear that you yet again used a tabloid reference to justify your own political beliefs on the page to vandalize it. You have deleted other users edits previously when you have found something to go against your own political beliefs and are using the page as an attempt to negatively promote a member of parliament whom may not share the same beliefs as you and therefore have been reported. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hierachy2015 (talk • contribs) 09:53, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia.

Hello,

Again just letting you know of a post that I have removed. Again the post you have added to the page Ian Lavery is yet again a clear attempt on your behalf to either tarnish a person's image or push you own agenda that you have against the page onto others. You clearly can only use newspaper articles which in the vast majority of people's eyes are not legitimate sources to cite.

Thanks

Your edits to Samaritans

Hi Dingowasher. I have removed the "Controversy" section that you added to the Samaritans article. See the talk page for that article for detailed reasoning, but basically, I think the source you cite doesn't support the text that was written in the article, and that it ignores other sources which say something totally different (Olive Cooke's family denying that contact from charities led to her death). --OpenToppedBus - Talk to the driver 15:06, 13 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at José Mourinho. Your edits have been or will be reverted or removed.

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. 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.

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. Qed237 (talk) 14:30, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's 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. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution.
