[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Vanderwaalforces. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Benin City seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Information icon Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Egbema tribe. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 17:31, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kindly take a look at those who have been editing the pages of Igbanke, Enugu & Egbema. Mightyblack (talk) 17:40, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Mightyblack. The intention you have in editing these pages is problematic. You are making libelous claims on the articles especially without a source. Please refrain from doing so. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and what that means is that we curate information from what reliable sources say about a subject and not our OPINION.
I will go ahead and undo your changes again, do not make them if again if you do not have a source to back up your claims. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 19:41, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please were is the source for those claiming Igbanke are bini? Or the ones who edited Enugu to claim it’s a Hausa/fulani town? Or is it permitted that ONLY the Igbo people’s history should be DISTORED on Wikipedia? Please do not police me if you aren’t going to police everyone editing peoples history on here. FYI EGBEMA’s are Igbo. They people editing this are all on twitter having a filled day sluring Igbos. Mightyblack (talk) 21:05, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Like I said earlier, I think you have a wrong perception of what Wikipedia is. IF you do not have a source to back up whatever you’re changing details to, then please back down from editing the pages. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 02:47, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Consider this a second warning. Don’t add your thoughts to Wikipedia as you’ve done in the pages you’ve edited so far. Best, Reading Beans 20:09, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Egbema tribe, you may be blocked from editing. Removal of sources and replacing them with very poor sources shows signs that you’re not here to build the encyclopaedia. Best, Reading Beans 02:48, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Egbema tribe. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 12:23, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
