Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you.

Ways to improve Taiwan spurdog

[edit]

Hi, I'm Akifumii. Planonasus, thanks for creating Taiwan spurdog!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Lead is a little short. I prefer to see more references and categories ass well to help the reader find this article.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. AkifumiiTalk 21:20, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your work creating new articles on sharks, but please read WP:COPYVIO before making any further articles. Copying the entire abstract of an article describing a new species, as you did for Carcharhinus humani is a violation of copyright, and wholesale reproduction of copyrighted text is not permitted on Wikipedia.

Removal of references, and multiple accounts issue

[edit]

Please stop removing references from articles like Rasbora. Your recent behavior closely mirrors behavior being performed by 109.29.22.222 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) and SuperPayara123 (talk · contribs). Please stop this disruptive behavior. Wikipedia editors are generally expected to edit using only one (preferably registered) account. Using a single account maintains editing continuity, improves accountability, and increases community trust, which helps to build long-term stability for the encyclopedia. While there are some valid reasons for maintaining multiple accounts on the project, the improper use of multiple accounts is not allowed. Neil916 (Talk) 19:00, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please move articles to change species name. Second warning

Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you.

Another reason copy-pasting is an undesirable way to move is that it disrupts the links to other language Wikis, Commons, and Wikidata. Just a heads up, since you appear to be unresponsive to previous warnings, and continue to copy-paste (as with Totoaba) you may be subject to sanctions including temporary blocks on editing. If you have questions, there are resources, including the Wikipedia:Teahouse and WikiProject Fishes. We're all trying to help make a good set of articles here, and could use your help in doing it the best way possible. Again, if you have questions or are unclear on procedure, ask! --Animalparty-- (talk) 03:06, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Parentheses around the scientific authority

[edit]

Hello, please do not remove the parentheses around the authority of scientific names when they should be used — seeBinomial nomenclature#Writing binomial names. For example Zoramia fragilis was first described as Apogon fragilis by Smith in 1961, hence we now write Zoramia fragilis (Smith 1961). Please put the parentheses back as necessary — check FishBase or the Catalog of Fishes if in doubt. Micromesistius (talk) 06:44, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Parentheses are not an optional matter of style. When present, they indicate that a species has been moved to a genus other than the one in which it was originally described. Do not remove them (as you did at Elacatinus, and make sure you're following the presence or absence of parentheses in your source if you're creating new pages; Tigrigobius has no parentheses around authors at all, even in cases where they clearly needed (species described prior to the 1931 description of Tigrigobius logically can NOT have been placed in Tigrigobius when first described). Plantdrew (talk) 16:07, 24 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Tigrigobius multifasciatus, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.cyclopaedia.de/wiki/Elacatinus_multifasciatus.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted.

CorenSearchBot (talk) 14:37, 24 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If you had moved the article using the move button, as you've been asked to do repeatedly, CorenSearchBot wouldn't have seen the article as new text that needed to be checked for a copyright violation. Yet another reason to stop doing cut and paste moves and use the move button (if you're not seeing the Move button, hover over "More" to the right of "View history" at the top of page). Plantdrew (talk) 15:56, 24 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Warning

[edit]

Do not remove the parentheses around scientific authorities. You have been warned about this in the past, but you continue to do so. They are in no way optional, instead indicating that the species was originally described in a different genus. In this edit, you removed the parentheses around "Osbeck, 1765", even though the species now called Monacanthus chinensis cannot have been originally described in the genus Monacanthus, which was erected more than 50 years later. If you cannot work within these requirements, and refuse to engage with the rest of the community, then you will be blocked to prevent further damage to the encyclopaedia. --Stemonitis (talk) 19:25, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Now, at Paramonacanthus, you again remove parentheses from species that require them (alongside other changes). This must stop. Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia. --Stemonitis (talk) 19:34, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Parentheses and authorities

[edit]

Do not remove parentheses that belong around the authorities of scientific names. You have been asked repeatedly to stop doing this, and have been blocked before for this behaviour. You must be in no doubt, therefore, that you will be blocked the next time you make such an edit. Most of what you do is excellent, so it would be a shame to jeopardise it in this silly way.

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Chela cachius a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into a new page with a different name: Chela atpar. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution.

stopThis is the SEVENTH time you have been warned about this. I don't get it... you clearly have a scientific knowledge that can be valuable to Wikipedia. And yet, you steadfastly refuse to acknowledge that there is a right way and a wrong way to accomplish what might appear to you to have the same end result, but which is in reality quite a different thing. You are creating a LOT of extra work, both for yourself and for other editors. That's called "a pattern of disruptive editing", which could result in you being blocked. The fact that you refuse to communicate with other editors about such issues diminishes – if not eliminates – the value of your otherwise valuable contributions. Just today alone, in addition to Chela cachius, you also did this to:

PLEASE, take five minutes to read Help:Moving a page to learn the proper way to do this.

Hello. I am Diannaa and I am an administrator on this wiki. Prose you find online is almost always copyright, and cannot be copied here; it's against the law to do so. All prose must be written in your own words. There's more information about copyrights and how it applies to Wikipedia at Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright. Copyright law and its application are complex matters, and you should not edit any more until you have taken the time to read and understand our copyright policies. Further copyright violations will result in you being blocked from editing. -- Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 15:57, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Information icon Greetings. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Pterois‎, did not appear to be constructive and has been or will be reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Tarl.Neustaedter (talk) 23:09, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Pterois. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted or removed.

  • If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. 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, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Tarl.Neustaedter (talk) 00:03, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Removing Digital object identifiers from journal citations is approaching Vandalism, because it clearly makes Wikipedia worse.

Information icon Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to List of sharks‎ does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! —EncMstr (talk) 04:08, 1 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not convinced Planonasus is even aware of this talk page. Has never edited this page, and looking at the past several hundred edits, comments seem to be either automated or only when something requires a comment (like a move page). My previous interaction with the user was unsatisfactory - unexplained nonsensical and often actively harmful edits - were repeated and no explanation forthcoming in either edit comments or talk pages. Tarl.Neustaedter (talk) 15:53, 1 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Tarlneustaedter: Thank you for chiming in. If this editor's subsequent edits don't have explanatory edit summaries, I'll take appropriate action. —EncMstr (talk) 01:45, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@EncMstr: Planonasus's summary usage for recent major edits is 37%. They did not provide any explanation for their edit on Etmopterus that undid content changes I made, including a clearly valid copyedit to the lead. Removing content that I had reinstated following their last edit violated WP:BRD. Unexplained removal of a reference, strange reformatting of a section that Elmidae created, and removal of the See also section. I have no doubt that this user's edits are generally helpful to the project in this niche area, but I doubt voicing my concerns on this talk page will amount to changes in their behavior. (After a quick glance through their contribs, I can't find where this content went...) – Rhinopias (talk) 22:30, 28 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Tukugobius philippinus

[edit]

Hello, could you please clarify what is the source of treating Tukugobius philippinus as a synonym of Rhinogobius similis? Both FishBase and the Catalog of Fishes use Rhinogobius philippinus as the valid name. Micromesistius (talk) 21:06, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Similar issue with Rhinogobius bucculentus: you removed this species from the Rhinogobius page as invalid, but it is considered valid by both FishBase and the Catalog of Fishes. Please recall that "Wikipedia articles should be based on reliable, published secondary sources and, to a lesser extent, on tertiary sources and primary sources." (from Wikipedia:No original research) Micromesistius (talk) 21:21, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Seconding Micromesistius's comment: making taxonomic changes based on bleeding edge research (e.g. a single study that proposes a new classification) may be premature: it's generally best to wait until such changes are accepted and adopted by secondary sources, e.g. FishBase, Catalog of Fishes, IUCN Red List, or other sources that indicate a consensus view. This is elaborated in the policy on Primary, secondary, and tertiary sources. Prior to such acceptance, it may be appropriate to add something to the effect of "this species was long placed in genus X, but a recent study reclassified it in genus Y". On Wikipedia, we go by consensus of experts and due weight in reliable sources: changing article titles may be seen as implicitly promoting ideas on classification that are out of step with other sources. Note that we don't necessarily care which classification is "wrong" or "right", per Neutrality, only in accurately and proportionately portraying different views without bias.

Recent edit to Bathyclupea

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you removed some content from Bathyclupea without explaining why.

Non-constructive editing

[edit]

Hello, thanks for your many constructive edits. However, please refrain from non-constructive editing. Your latest edits on Hypostomus included useful edits as well as non-constructive removal of digital object identifiers (doi's), adding commas to cite templates in place where they do not belong (raise this on the talk page of the template, if you want commas included in the citation style), and one removal of a cite template. Such editing causes lots of extra work for other editors and will quickly lead to blocking, given your past history of non-constructive edits. Micromesistius (talk) 13:52, 18 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not move a page to a title that is harder to follow, or move it unilaterally against naming conventions or consensus, as you did to Bryconadenos.

I'm not convinced this editor even knows that talk pages exist. The only edits I see they have ever performed on talk pages involve page moves and creation, which come for free with the parallel main space article.

I have to admit I'm a bit concerned about this article. Every other article in other languages of Wikipedia calls this species Lophogobius bleekeri, its former name and so do all book sources I can find. Can you provide some sources that this name is widely used and internationally accepted, not just that someone somewhere proposed a name change? In any case, if a species is well-known under a past name we must state that clearly in the article so there is no confusion.

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 ~~~~}}.

Planonasus, as per this discussion of your behaviour at Administrator's Noticeboard/Incidents, I have blocked you indefinitely. This block can and will be lifted as soon as you reply to me here on this talk page.

Wikipedia is a collaborative project which requires cooperation between users. You have been repeatedly running roughshod over your fellow editors without seeking consensus first. Everyone with knowledge of your contributions at ANI has spoken highly about your subject matter expertise, so it is a shame that you're not willing to be more cooperative. You're an asset to Wikipedia and we want you here, but you've got to learn to play nicely with everybody else.

If you will agree to start using article talk pages to get consensus for your edits from the community, I will immediately unblock you. Please reply that you understand this. A Traintalk 19:52, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]


Hello, I will want to communicated with others editors. Binks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Planonasus (talkcontribs) 20:49, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Outstanding. Here's lesson No. 1: sign your talk page posts (by using four tildes, like this ~~~~) so that people can keep track of who you are and when you posted. I think a good next step would be to visit Talk:Etmopterus and come to an agreement with the editors there about the changes that you want to make.
You will be unblocked in a few moments. Thanks for playing ball, and I hope it continues. A Traintalk 21:08, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
