If somebody has started updating a chart's peaks on Wikipedia, don't interrupt them

Hi. I was clearly doing the Swedish charts, as I edited Måneskin before you and you saw the Swedish peak there, which you then used to add an additional peak of theirs to the article. You then took over, which I don't appreciate. Please leave the editor who was doing them to do the rest of them in future. Thank you. Ss112 12:37, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

Dear, Ss112. I am apologizing, I did not know that you wrote at the same time as me. It got confusing when your time says 12:37 while my clock is 14:40. I wish you a good day. DonLovis (talk) 12:42, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

That's because Wikipedia's signatures are dated using the time it is in the UTC time zone. Ss112 13:04, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

I realised that now. Anyway, I was not trying to destroy, rather help you.DonLovis (talk) 13:53, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Eurovision Song Contest 2023, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page SVT. 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.)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

To edit in the Israeli-Palestinian topic area on Wikipedia accounts must be at least thirty days old and have at least 500 edits. This includes editing talk pages, with the sole exception being for edit requests. IOHANNVSVERVS (talk) 10:22, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

Good evening,IOHANNVSVERVS. Does it mean that I must have 500 edits on English Wikipedia? DonLovis (talk) 16:11, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

Good question, I'll ask an admin for you. IOHANNVSVERVS (talk) 18:40, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

Yes, the edits must be on the English Wikipedia. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:54, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

Alright, thank you for a quick answer, IOHANNVSVERVS & ScottishFinnishRadish! I have 5.400 edits on Swedish Wikipedia so that's why I got a bit confused. All good! DonLovis (talk) 19:05, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
