Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Holland Taylor. - FlightTime Phone (open channel) 00:13, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why are u not allowing others to edit this page. Are u Miss Holland's publicist or something? IslandScholar (talk) 00:17, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

When you make an edit and other editors object to the change, you should start a discussion on the article's talk page. Schazjmd (talk) 00:19, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Girlyn Miguel. Curbon7 (talk) 20:47, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What i added at Ms Miguel's page is nothing but the whole truth. The lady and i are from the same country and she completely retired from politics in 2020. She also retired in the 1990's from her teaching career when she first stepped on the political scene...For your information! IslandScholar (talk) 21:13, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes but we need reliable sources (like a news article or a book) which says that she retired in the 90s. We can't just take your word on it because you're "from the same country". Curbon7 (talk) 13:33, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh fuck my mistake. I meant 2015 not 2020! IslandScholar (talk) 21:17, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Editwarring

[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Holland Taylor. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. - FlightTime Phone (open channel) 02:29, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Stop changing infobox images in celebrity articles without discussion

[edit]

Propose such changes on the article's talk page and wait for consensus. And don't place an image in an article twice. Sundayclose (talk) 22:59, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Ciara, you may be blocked from editing. Sundayclose (talk) 01:57, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What the fuck is your problem?...I am doing my job as an editor.Last time i checked, Wikipedia is free for anyone to edit. The fucking company does not belong to you! IslandScholar (talk) 02:10, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone can edit Wikipedia, but that doesn't mean anyone can edit any way they wish. Infobox images need consensus to change, especially the mass changes that you are making. Please discuss on the talk page and get consensus. Read WP:BRD and WP:CON. Wikipedia is a collaborative project. Failure to discuss major changes is not an option. You've edited less than two months, but you have received several warnings for disruptive editing. That's not a good track record for a new editor. I suggest that you slow down and try to communicate and respect other editors if you want to continue editing. Thanks. Sundayclose (talk) 02:35, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm done with you!. Please desist from being a nuisance! IslandScholar (talk) 02:54, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Saboto Caesar, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Labour and Industry. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Information icon Hello, I'm MikeAllen. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Saboto Caesar, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. The sources you are using to create the article's narrative are not reliable sources. Please read WP:BLP before editing any more biographies. Continually adding unreliable sources will get you blocked. Thanks Mike Allen 23:21, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion pages, as you did with this edit to Saboto Caesar. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. Thank you.
