Howdy

Howdy, my name is Y. M. Lee. I was a bit curious about your contributions and read your user page. I just wanted to give you a warm welcome to the Wikipedia community and let you know that on Wikipedia, it's policy to assume good faith. That means your edits won't immediately be assumed to be vandalism, nor will you be blocked for doing your best. You don't need to explicitly say you aren't vandalising or that you make mistakes and that should be okay; other editors should already understand you if they follow the rules and if they're also good people. So welcome, and don't worry about any judgement before it's said. Cheers. Yue🌙 06:53, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, hope you have a lot of fun here on Wikipedia. Regarding your edits at Donetsk People's Republic, I'd suggest you always try to provide an edit summary (see WP:edit summary). Cheers, Rsk6400 (talk) 09:24, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring

Your recent editing history at Northern Ireland 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.

Unsourced

Hello, I'm Canterbury Tail. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, 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. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Canterbury Tail talk 11:49, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Persistent disruptive editing

I this point it's hard to think you're not deliberately editing disruptively. While you've started quoting sources, which is good, it seems the numbers you're entering and changes you're making are not supported by the sources. You're entering numbers that are not supported by the sources you are quoting. Given your massive disruption around country and locale areas, can you give us a reason why we shouldn't, at minumum, topic ban you from country articles or areas? It's becoming increasing difficult to assume good faith with your edits and frankly at this point you're causing so much work for other editors to clean up your edits that your core competency to edit is in question.

Note also I've removed your ECP rights from the account as from your edit history it's blatantly obvious that you gamed the system by performing hundreds of pointless edits on your user page in order to get over 500 edits. This means you may not edit in Palestine/Israel related areas until you can prove yourself a trusted editor. Canterbury Tail talk 12:44, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You know what? You're right. I should have paid more attention. I'm sorry Canterbury Tail! Just a random geography fan (talk) 17:05, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I will now assure you that i will no longer be making unnecessary edits and start engaging more meaningful contributions and i will start providing reliable sources and not revert the area of Northern Ireland. How's my message, Canterbury Tail? Just a random geography fan (talk) 01:51, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

December 2023

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at New Zealand, you may be blocked from editing. -gadfium 08:43, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Suriname

Hello, I've reverted your recent edit on Suriname because it wasn't supported by the reffrence. Please use your sandbox if you would like to do test edits. Alexeyevitch^(talk) 02:01, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

For continually making persistant unsourced edits, you have been temporarily blocked. You are welcome to return to editing after your block has expired, but if you continue making unsourced edits you will be blocked again. Canterbury Tail talk 03:24, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

Note also what appears to be WP:PGAME to get permissions: [1] Wizmut (talk) 07:39, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Already mentioned and handled above. Canterbury Tail talk 12:34, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Continued disruption

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at List of countries and dependencies by area. Wizmut (talk) 08:32, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

January 2024

Wikipedia's technical logs indicate that this user account has been or may be used abusively. It has been blocked indefinitely from editing to prevent abuse.

Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.
If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should review the guide to appealing blocks, and then appeal your block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}}. Note that anything you post in your unblock request will be public, so you may alternatively use the Unblock Ticket Request System to submit an appeal if it contains information that must be private.

Administrators: Checkusers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or by administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not loosen or remove this block, or issue an IP block exemption, without consulting with a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee. Administrators who undo checkuser blocks without permission from a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee may be summarily desysopped.
