Disambiguation link notification for March 31

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of methods of capital punishment, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Persian. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Sandy Hook

Please use the talkpage to explain what you feel is "slanted" about a plain, well-sourced statement that the conspiracy theories are "contradictory, implausible, without evidence and offensive to those affected." Wikipedia documents mainstream views in major published media: omission of such views in the name of a false balance has a way of supporting fringe points of view. Acroterion (talk) 16:52, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

They're offensive, absolutely, but to say so in the article is NNPOV which is against Wikipedia terms Gdeblois19 00:25, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

Edit warring

Your recent editing history 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 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 do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. ~ HAL333 04:52, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions. One of your recent contributions to November 2015 Paris attacks has been reverted or removed, because it contains speculative or unconfirmed information about a future event. Please only add material about future events if it is verifiable, based on a reliable source. Rklawton (talk) 02:44, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This includes the ability 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.

Timothy McVeigh

Hi,

De facto interpretation of the WP:TERRORIST guideline is that no one is called a terrorist. There is a long-standing concensus that not even Osama bin-Laden or the hijackers are called terrorists: Talk:Osama bin Laden/FAQ. I think I'll open a thread about this on the NPOV noticeboard, because the whole guideline is rather silly due to different interpretations in different articles. --Pudeo ' 03:32, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

January 2016

Before adding a category to an article, please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia's categorization guidelines. Categories must also be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. Thank you. 107.10.236.42 (talk) 12:42, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please read WP:Categorization, particularly the section titled "Articles", which says:

Categorization of articles must be verifiable. It should be clear from verifiable information in the article why it was placed in each of its categories.

Thank you. 63.116.31.198 (talk) 23:46, 11 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

New Black Panther Party

As the preceding section indicates, WP:Categorization#Articles requires that categories be verifiable -- that is, reliable sources in the article should support the inclusion of the article in the category.

New Black Panther Party doesn't say anything about far-left politics. Adding it to that category is impermissible original research. Please don't do it again without reliable sources that indicate the group's politics are far-left. Thank you. — MShabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 13:03, 2 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I hope you see my point. There's no evidence that there was a connection between the beliefs/activities of the NN and the NYPD killer, so far as I can see, but the situation is very different with the Noontide Press guy. Doug Weller talk 18:53, 9 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

DS alert US politics

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 post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, 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.

Addition of Guiteau to the Oneida Community lead

I removed your addition of Charles J. Guiteau] to the Oneida Community lead. I don't think this is pertinent to the lead as it is trivial within the article. Guiteau was never an integral part of the community, apparently did not fit in, & he left a couple of time. His presence is noted elsewhere in the article. Indeed, mention of his membership in the Oneida Community is not in the lead of Guiteau's own article. I think mentioning Guiteau in the lead detracts from the overview & gives undo weight to the assasin's presence at Oneida. Peaceray (talk) 20:39, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Raw url´s as citations

Hello, thanks for your input at Aum Shinrikyo. Please follow WP:CITE, we need the author, date, title, Journal, volume and page of sources (if available).

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 shown interest in pseudoscience and fringe science. 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 the 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.

Custom signature fix needed

Hi there! You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. Changes to Wikipedia's software have made your current custom signature invalid.

The problem: Your signature contains a syntax error or obsolete HTML tags.

The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, you can fix your signature, or you can do nothing.

Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:

Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
Remove anything in the Signature: text box.
Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page. (Do not click the red "Restore all default settings" button, which will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)

Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:

Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
Click the Learn more button next to the error to learn how to fix the error.
Update your signature to fix the error.
Click Save to update to your newly fixed signature.

Solution 3: Do nothing:

In accordance with a recent request for comment, all invalid signatures will be changed to the default, which looks like "Example (talk)", one month from now.

If you have followed these instructions and still want help, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Signatures. Thank you! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:05, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
