January 2019

Hello, I'm General Ization. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Cherokee, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. General Ization ^Talk 18:32, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Cherokee, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Doug Weller talk 20:05, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Cherokee 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. 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. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you 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.

February 2019

Hello, I'm Dirkbb. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Adam (given name) 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 Help Desk. Thanks. Dirkbb (talk) 18:14, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Inappropriate edit summaries

Please don't use edit summaries for anything other than explaining your edit in a neutral fashion, using them for religious messages is inappropriate.

I respect you, but I am sorry you feel that way. Doug Weller talk 17:37, 30 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Cyrillization of English

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Cyrillization of English, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. --Nahal^(T) 07:59, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Cyrillization of English (September 28)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Zanhe was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Cyrillization of English and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Cyrillization of English, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Please Note

Please dont use threats like "I mean no trouble but I'm afraid that any more intervention from you will result in consequences of your rights as a Wikipedia user and your 119,544th edit will likely be your last on this account." its not clever and perhaps not the best thing to say to a user who is also an admin. Thanks. MilborneOne (talk) 23:01, 14 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, it's not threat, buddy, merely a warning. In case nothing got through to you, let me sum up what I explained to you earlier: Let people of their own country who have experience with their own country edit Wikipedia for their country on those experiences. Now, to keep things civil, this conversation is over. Evan Wenning (talk) 06:59, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

English

Goodness only knows what you meant by this change comment:

I only ask that you have at least considered what has been studied. Please. I put so much time and effort into this, please please consider it, it's the least you could do. And I will gladly explain how Hebraization came to be in the paragraphs below if it helps and if all goes.

You simply added "Hebrew" as an English writing system - how much effort did that require? If you had "studied" anything that was relevant, perhaps you could have provided a ref. Your edits need to stand alone - if you're going to "gladly explain" a change, then the proper time and place is in the Talk page before you make an edit. Sorry if I come over harsh, and I'm sure you mean well, but it looks as if you've been here a while and by now should have a much better feel for how Wikipedia works. - Snori (talk) 05:50, 19 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
