February 2017

Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Pamelyn Ferdin, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 02:14, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

re Tennessee Tuxedo and His Tales

I'm not clear on what you're trying to do here. It displayed fine on my machine before (and after, but why introduce HTML tags that don't change anything). And other articles dont use <P align="justify">, so how is this one page different? The alignment is baked into the display software, I though. Herostratus (talk) 06:21, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Just to add to that, I have reverted a couple of places where you have added unexplained HTML including one seemingly bizarre break halfway through a word. I wonder if software you use is doing this by mistake and without your knowledge? If you could please communicate with us, we might be able to sort this out. Thank you.

Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia pages, such as those you made to Paul Williams (songwriter), even if you intend to fix them later. Your edits have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. - Mlpearc (open channel) 02:34, 10 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop

Please stop placing <P alikgn="justify"> on article pages. This is not used on article pages and is disruptive, and wasting others' time going behind you and removing it. - Mlpearc (open channel) 03:01, 10 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I'll ask again, please stop adding that markup. - Mlpearc (open channel) 04:04, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Star Trek: The Original Series. - Mlpearc (open channel) 04:09, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

To reiterate, I'm trying to assume good faith, but you've been asked several times to stop and you don't appear to be listening. We really appreciate constructive edits and ask you to contribute in line with policy and style guides. Please see Wikipedia:New contributors' help page.

What the heck

Don't restore your use page, and please explain what you are up to with that. Herostratus (talk) 00:01, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

re purpose of disambiguation pages

OK, so you know... Disambiguation pages are menus, each selection taking the reader somewhere. Adding ""Eugene", a song by Crazy Joe and the Variable Speed Band (1980)" doesn't help the reader, because there're no links -- we don't have an article on Crazy Joe and the Variable Speed Band.

So we have to link to something' -- like for instance if we have an entry

"Foo", a song by Big Poolboy on the album So What

we would link to the song Foo if we have an article on that. If we don't we would like to the album So What if we have an article on that. If we don't we would link to the article Big Poolboy if we have article on that. If we don't, we don't have anyplace to take the reader so we would not have have the entry. OK I know it hard to learn all these things, it takes time, don't worry. Herostratus (talk) 06:29, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for June 2

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Fall River, Massachusetts, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page BMI (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:21, 2 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

December 2018

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Local marketing agreement. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Wikipedia does not use <p> tags in articles per the Manual of Style, much less tags to force justification of text. You were blocked in the past for this exact behaviour. Unless you can provide a compelling reason for justifying the text and show that other editors support the action, I strongly suggest that you do not add those tags to any more articles. —C.Fred (talk) 13:55, 20 December 2018 (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 read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.
