Date and language retention
[edit]Before changing date formats, please see MOS:ENGVAR that discusses the concept. In short, Portuguese-language subjects have no more affinity for international English than for American English and so unless a change is for reasons of consistency, spelling should not be changed, and all such changes should be clearly explained.
Also, MOS:DATETIES discusses the subjects that have a strong association with a specific date format while MOS:DATERET states that if there isn't a strong association, that the format originally used should remain in the article. Changes such as the ones you made to modify a date format are not appropriate. Walter Görlitz (talk) 15:36, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
- Also your changes of "color" to "colour" in the Wiki Markup Language wrecked a diagram in People's Representative Council - please stp making these changes. Regards Davidelit (Talk) 09:51, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
- Also, I have reverted your changes to Canadian/US football pages for the reasons above. Red Jay (talk) 12:35, 26 January 2018 (UTC)

[edit]
Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Xiaomi Mi A1, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. 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 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. Please stop changing dates and spellings from the current setting without a good reason. Red Jay (talk) 17:15, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for January 27
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Ingus Bankevics, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page English (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) 09:28, 27 January 2018 (UTC)

[edit]
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at End of World War II in Asia. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Do not change date formats without a valid reason. Red Jay (talk) 10:24, 27 January 2018 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Red Jay (talk) 06:29, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
You've managed to rack-up a lot of warnings so I won't add one more, but I will remind you to stop changing date formats. The reasons were supplied above. Walter Görlitz (talk) 07:11, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

[edit]
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Melbourne Victory FC. It's soccer in Australia Red Jay (talk) 17:09, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. NeilN talk to me 19:30, 3 February 2018 (UTC)Please explain why you are ignoring these warnings. --NeilN talk to me 19:31, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Jayron32 16:42, 5 February 2018 (UTC)I have instituted a second block, this one for one month, because you continue to refuse to engage with anyone who objects to the changes you are making. If you wish to be unblocked, please respond and explain yourself. --Jayron32 16:42, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
Blocked indefinitely
[edit]Since you chose to resume the kind of behavior that got you blocked twice before, I have now blocked you indefinitely. Your refusal to explain or discuss the matter in spite of several warnings is an aggravating circumstance. If you wish to appeal the block, please follow the instructions in the previous block messages. Favonian (talk) 12:03, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
Wales-Scotland football rivalry moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Wales-Scotland football rivalry, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the confirms on the Articles for Creation template atop the page.
