December 2018

Repeatedly restoring the same change at Honeywell without providing a reliable source to support your change is considered disruptive and if perpetrated by an established editor could be grounds for a block. Per WP:BRD you should not have restored your edit once it was reverted without either providing the required reference or obtaining a consensus on the talk page (which would be unlikely without a reference).

I note that you are a relatively new editor so this warning is advisory rather than official. Please be advised, that any edit made on Wikipedia must be accompanied by a supporting reference. TheVicarsCat (talk) 14:13, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 29

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Uptown Charlotte, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Interstate 277 and Spectrum Center (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.)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Beyoncé discography, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Ss112 17:15, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

@Ss112: All of the certifications for the video albums on Beyoncé discography have sources directly to the corresponding certification company for that country and the sales amount for each reflects the certification amount for the specific country. If I have sourced them wrong, I would appreciate help correcting the formatting of the source rather than the entire video albums portion being restored to an incomplete listing. (StatsFreak) 01:45, 20 March 2019 (UTC)

The chart positions were not sourced, so it was absolutely not "literally all sourced". I'm actually in disbelief that you seem to think editors can't use the eyes they possess to see that here the US, AUS, BRA and UK columns in the video albums section have literally no sources at the top of the columns. Besides, you have no reason to be removing the live albums section and trying to change them all to video albums. This is a contentious change and needs to be discussed. Do not continue to restore your edits per WP:BRD. It appears you don't know that if your edits are objected to, you don't restore them but rather you go to the talk page and get consensus for your changes. Also, certifications do not equal actual sales, so those amounts were all unsourced. If you don't understand that you need consensus for what you're doing and continue to go back to the article and restore your edits, I will get an admin involved because I'm not getting involved in an edit war with you. Discuss at the article talk page. Arguing with me here will achieve nothing. Thanks. Ss112 07:03, 20 March 2019 (UTC)

It's a bit ironic that you seem to be clearly aware only the album positions did not have a source listed and resulted in restoring the entire section instead of removing just the unsourced content yet are baffled by what you think I can and cannot see. No one is arguing with you, I simply asked for help correcting the material's sources. The hostility, which seems to be a pattern judging by your other responses on your talk page, was completely unnecessary and completely brought on by yourself. Perhaps getting an admin involved will actually achieve what I originally asked you for, so please do so ASAP. Thanks! (StatsFreak) 02:28, 21 March 2019 (UTC)

You clearly don't understand the definition of irony given that entirely nonsensical example you just attempted to describe. At no point did I say anything about what you can't see. I also love when editors peruse my talk page to try to gather material on me so they can have a go at me. Hilarious, go off! Clearly you think edit warring is an acceptable behaviour here on Wikipedia when it isn't. You are obviously inexperienced and still haven't read WP:BRD. What a shame. And finally, no. Admins have little to no interest in the content disputes between editors. Basically all will suggest the editor seeking the change to the page take their concerns to the talk page per BRD. Again, thinking admins are going to agree with your edit warring and restoring of unsourced information shows your inexperience. It's also a bit hypocritical to show hostility when you just criticised me for it too, but not surprising given your lack of self-awareness and experience here. I'm done interacting with you, so I will ask an admin to explain to you not to edit war...unless you do actually want to find yourself blocked for edit warring? Who'd know. Thanks! Ss112 07:47, 21 March 2019 (UTC)

• Substantive changes to an article that are likely to be contentious should generally be discussed on the article talk page first. When an edit is challenged by reversion then the next stop is the talk page to sort things out. Often this can be done quickly with minimal fuss. Sometimes however a discussion is needed to establish WP:CONSENSUS. Because this is a collaborative project we need to work with one another in order to avoid edit wars and other sources of potential contention. Thank you for your contributions to the project. Best regards... -Ad Orientem (talk) 18:57, 21 March 2019 (UTC)

Geauga Lake

I reverted your edit at Geauga Lake, but if you can find an adequate source for it, feel free to reinstate. Judging from your edit history and the discussion above, it seems you've been here long enough to understand that there are core policies and guidelines on Wikipedia that need to be followed. Relevant ones that apply here are WP:V, WP:CITE, and of course, WP:RS. If you need help or a further explanation, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. --GoneIn60 (talk) 02:30, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

When you do find a source, make certain it backs up the edit that you made. I twice deleted material you added because the citations you provided did not state that Geauga lake received 3 million visitors. I also see that you eventually decided that SF did not continue to invest. Cedar Fair did, but not SF. I'll also add, don't get snippy with your comments: "Added a second source stating the same info, although it is clearly mentioned in the first," is not appreciated when clearly, your sources did not. As GoneIn60 indicated you've been using WP long enough to understand how everything is supposed to work. If you want to start making edits to amusement park pages, make certain the material agrees with the citations. We have a dedicated group of users here who like to keep these pages accurate.—JlACEer (talk) 15:15, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

On a side note, I do find it very unlikely that SFWOA ever got to 3 million; 2.7–2.8 million is the figure I see most often quoted, but since you did find a citable source, I'll leave it. Maybe they did, but that seems kind of high, considering CP was barely hitting 3 million at that time.—JlACEer (talk) 15:15, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

Update – I went ahead and cleaned up the "Decline" section, reformatting the refs that were there and adding an additional one or two. As for the park attendance claim of 3 million, I'm beginning to question that as a rounded figure. The publications at the time reported 2.7 million, as you can see in the refs below:

Thrill isn't gone, but fans fading at Six Flags – Plain Dealer

Geauga Lake gets facelift to shed its Six Flags name – The Morning Journal

Also another factor to consider is that Six Flags didn't used to release official numbers for their parks. Anything being reported in the news was likely a very rough estimate. The Amusement Business publication was probably the most trusted source, however, and it reported 2.7 million. I think we should change it to that. --GoneIn60 (talk) 18:52, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

July 2019

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Geauga Lake, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. GoneIn60 (talk) 04:53, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Frankie's Fun Park

The article Frankie's Fun Park has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

All coverage is either from the company itself or trivial local coverage. No indication of passing WP:GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

@Johhnyfrankie13: You can re-add the factual awards whenever they have a reliable source. There are still many awards listed on the page that are not reliable or unsourced. Some of the content that you added, such as RIAA certifications, are not awards and do not need to be added regardless. --StatsFreak (talk) 17:37, 8 September 2019 (UTC)

Challenged edits at Beyoncé album articles

Your edits to Everything Is Love -- specifically the removal and revisal of the chronological context -- have been challenged by at least two editors now, including me; I defer to the preponderance of reliable third-party sources that consider the album a collaborative release by the two artists, albeit under the duo moniker, which the article documents as being merely a moniker and still an album by the two artists. Please do not restore your change. The other editor who opposes it has already started this attempt at the talk page to discuss. As WP:BRD says, "If your edit gets reverted, do not revert again. Instead, begin a discussion with the person who reverted your change to establish consensus. … Discuss the contribution, and the reasons for the contribution, on the article's talk page with the person who reverted your contribution. Don't restore your changes or engage in back-and-forth reverting. Thank you. isento (talk) 03:18, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Lemonade (Beyoncé album) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. isento (talk) 17:06, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

• Note - A request-for-comment has been opened at the Beyoncé discography article's talk page to determine a consensus regarding this content. isento (talk) 17:06, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

The CD packaging for Everything Is Love credits the album as "The new album from Jay-Z and Beyonce". I hope this can at least convince you this is a controversial matter and should be properly discussed first at the RfC. isento (talk) 17:10, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Truist Center

I think this is premature; the deal doesn't even close until 2020, and literally no official site has had the chance to reflect any name change. I would normally just do this in an edit summary, but undoing a move is a bit more than a revert. But I am undoing the move. --Golbez (talk) 14:00, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

Redirect of BB&T to Truist Financial

Hello. I'm wondering why the BB&T article was redirected when according to the company the merger could take up to 2 years and the encyclopedic information about BB&T was still useful. Now people can't find information about a company that still exists and was notable enough for it's own article. The proper thing to do would have been to keep the BB&T so the information about it was retained and to include something about the merger in both articles. There's plenty of articles around for defunct companies and BB&T is still going to be operational until at least 2022. So, the redirect was massively premature and the wrong thing to do anyway. Even if the merger already happened. Since its a notable subject on its own. Is there any way you can revert yourself and restore the article? --Adamant1 (talk) 02:39, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

June 2020

The edit you made recently to Wildwater Kingdom (Ohio) did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. I understand you may believe that lack of sourcing meant it should be removed on sight, but actually the better approach is to do a quick search to see if sources exist. For a claim like the one you removed, sources were very easy to locate. I've restored the information and added the necessary source. In the future, please consider taking the time to do so, or at the very least, post an inline {{citation needed}} tag to give editors at the page some time to respond. If you have any questions about this or need help, ask at my talk page or visit the Teahouse. Thank you. --GoneIn60 (talk) 04:16, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Beyoncé discography. 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 noticeboards.
• 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. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. You had it explained to you that forums are not reliable sources, so stop reverting editors who've removed your use of such sources, as this is disruptive and edit warring. If data came "directly from ARIA", you should be able to cite ARIA, not the australian-charts.com forums. Ss112 06:31, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license.

Cedar Fair

Stop changing the Cedar Fair website. The "official website" right here: https://ir.cedarfair.com/company-overview/default.aspx clearly states in big, bold letters, "Headquartered in Sandusky, Ohio." Sandusky, Ohio, is also listed as the headquarters according to the SEC and the IRS. By its very definition, there cannot be TWO headquarters. The link you provided, which was not a proper citation, merely states that there are corporate offices in Sandusky and Charlotte. That much which we already know and that is how the article is currently worded. "Corporate offices" does not mean headquarters. You've been warned multiple times about changing text and using improper or misinterpreted sources. You have also been warned not to revert text, or get into edit wars. If you continue to change sourced material, you will be blocked from editing.—JlACEer (talk) 15:01, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

As of October 2021, Cedar Fair refers to Sandusky as a "corporate presence" and more than inferred that the headquarters have already made a move from the state in an article that is sourced on the page you seem to police. I know it's a tough pill to swallow, but give it up. The headquarters were moved to Charlotte. Fuming at this decision and clinging onto outdated webpages isn't going to change that.

Furthermore, please do not threaten to block me from editing sourced material with even more sourced material. That will not end will for you. StatsFreak (talk) 17:40, 7 May 2022 (UTC)

Let's assume for a moment that you are correct, and the headquarters have indeed been moved. Where is the source that states this? The source you provided in this edit is not good enough. It simply states that there is an office in "Red Oak office park", not that the headquarters are there. We need a source that covers the headquarters relocation in more detail. Can you provide one? If no one's talking about it, then we shouldn't be either. --GoneIn60 (talk) 12:45, 9 May 2022 (UTC)

Here are some relevant sources I came across:

• Is Cedar Fair slowly moving its headquarters away from Sandusky? – Cleveland.com
• Official Company Info page – cedarfair.com

The first article states that they may be setting up for a move, but nothing has officially been announced. In fact, it mentions that city officials were still trying to offer the option of moving to downtown Sandusky as of June 2021. The second link is an official link, the same one that JlACEer provided above. Officially, they have not updated their headquarters location even on their own website. --GoneIn60 (talk) 12:53, 9 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi, sources have to directly support any changes you want to make, as per the core policy WP:Verifiability. You cannot infer from a source that something has happened.

Also, please do not personalize discussions. Your comments saying "I know it's a tough pill to swallow" and saying that JlACEer is "fuming at this decision" are inappropriate and not civil.

I hope you can take this feedback into account going forward. However, if you continue to make uncivil comments, as per WP:CIVIL, or make edits that don't follow WP:V, I will have to block you. Galobtter (pingó mió) 07:08, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.—JlACEer (talk) 03:56, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

May 2022

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Cedar Fair. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. —JlACEer (talk) 03:34, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Ss112. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Break My Soul, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Ss112 17:53, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

• Try to avoid plagiarising Billboard and using three of the same bare link. Word things in your own words, not Billboard's language ("Additionally, the song soars" ... "falls") and utilise refnames. If you plagiarise in future, I will revert you directly and warn you for a serious copyright violation (WP:COPYVIO). Thank you. Ss112 15:40, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Break My Soul, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Ss112 18:17, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Break My Soul, you may be blocked from editing. >> Lil-unique1 (talk) — 22:35, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

Milkshake Interpolation

It's not true to claim this was removed. The video here demonstrates where the sample is located in the song, and if you listen to it on YouTube or Spotify its still present. It's also still in the credits on apple and spotify. Unless there's a mention in a reliable source, e.g. direct from B please do not change this info. >> Lil-unique1 (talk) — 21:53, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Beyoncé discography. Ss112 03:23, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Ss112. I noticed that you made one or more edits to an article, Break My Soul, concerning the updates of review statistics, box office numbers, sports statistics, or some other frequently updated data with a fixed web address, but you did not update the |access-date= parameter in the citation template. The |access-date= parameter is the full date when the content pointed to by the URL was last verified to be working and supporting the text being cited in the article. This means that the parameter needs to be updated whenever the content is updated. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Talk:List of best-selling music artists

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Talk:List of best-selling music artists. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Harout72 (talk) 15:34, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Beyoncé discography, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Ss112 04:50, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

Cultural impact of Beyoncé

Hello StatsFreak. I have removed from the above article all content that matches material at EverybodyWiki, which is hosting a copy of our deleted article of the same name. It was deleted in April 2021 as the result of a deletion discussion Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cultural impact of Beyoncé. We can't reproduce any content copied from the deleted article because it's no longer possible to provide the attribution required under the terms of our license. So for that reason, I have removed all content that matches what is found at EverybodyWiki. Please let me know if you have any questions. — Diannaa (talk) 12:31, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
