Happy editing! Betty Logan (talk) 14:20, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Betty Logan. I’m was just fixing the ranking number in list of most expensive films. If u notice it, the ranking numbers are wrong, there are numbers that are skipped a lot. Let me u know if u could fix it Steve Franker (talk) 16:41, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

They are skipped intentionally. If there are two movies that tied for most expensive, the next one would not be the second-most expensive, it would be the third as there are two movies that cost more. Does that make sense? This is a very common ranking system. Sam Kuru (talk) 17:11, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh ok, I didn’t realise that. Thank you ❤️ Steve Franker (talk) 04:41, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Kuru. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to List of most expensive films have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. Sam Kuru (talk) 11:32, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop making unsourced changes at List of most expensive films. If you want to add new information then you need to provide a WP:Reliable source. If you think something is wrong then please raise the issue on the talk page. Betty Logan (talk) 14:24, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Steve - it would be very helpful if you would use edit summaries to describe what you're trying to do. Some of your edits are very clearly contradictory (changing a number or ranking that is different that what the very explicit source says). Better still, maybe use the article's talk page to propose changes until you have a better feel for things? It appears that you're trying to fix things that are not broken.

Fast and Furious

Please stop adding unconfirmed rumor to the Fast and Furious page. Diesels comments are speculative at best and shouldn’t be included until there’s more concrete information. In any event, your adding 2027 as a release date is entirely fabricated and original research. Rcarter555 (talk) 08:26, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I did not add any release date, I wrote "TBA", U got the wrong person Steve Franker (talk) 09:54, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

And Diesel actually confirmed a third Fast X film, i sass it wasn't there so I added it, I did not add any release date Steve Franker (talk) 09:56, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Saw* it wasn't there. Steve Franker (talk) 09:57, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Diesel never confirmed any third film, he said the studio had asked for a third film. That's not the same thing. Please stop adding it to the page. If you keep disruptive editing, you will be complained. Roman Reigns Fanboy (talk) 11:36, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I did not write the studio confirming a third film. Please check Steve Franker (talk) 13:32, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The studio asked Vin whether they could make a third film, it did not confirm a third film. That's not what the source or article says. Roman Reigns Fanboy (talk) 17:46, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Two Sequels to end the franchise are in development" implies the studio confirming a third film. 70.163.208.142 (talk) 18:29, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That statement isn't carried by the source Variety, that was added by Steve Franker himself to the Wikipedia article without any source backing it up. Roman Reigns Fanboy (talk) 22:27, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I'm criticizing Steve Franker's "I did not write the studio confirming a third film. Please check", I should have been more clear. 70.163.208.142 (talk) 23:17, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. LancedSoul (talk) 03:50, 18 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Steve Franker: Stop putting your misleading edit summaries, it is NOT a grammer, it is the one you removed the statement! LancedSoul (talk) 09:25, 18 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Islam. 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:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
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. EvergreenFir (talk) 04:30, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In 2023, Population of Islam has already crossed over 2 billion, you and I both know that right?, the other editor might be an Islamophobe person changing it back to 1.9 billion or 1.8 billion because he doesn’t like it. I’m not doing anything wrong. Steve Franker (talk) 05:32, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring and violating the three-revert rule. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

I was just correcting the mistake of the number of followers. Steve Franker (talk) 10:11, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You introduced unsourced speculation five times to the same highly visible article within 24 hours. You also added the same speculation to other articles. It may be best to avoid making any further edits without also adding clear and reliable sources. Please note that, given the history of this account, future blocks for this disruptive behavior will be much longer. Sam Kuru (talk) 13:10, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm ‪Durziil89‬. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Islam, 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. Durziil89 (talk) 16:20, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. EvergreenFir (talk) 21:38, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To clarify, you apparently do not understand the reason you were previously blocked or have no intention of changing your behavior. You have but made substantial edits elsewhere and so I'm left to conclude that you are WP:NOTHERE to build an encyclopedia or lack the competency to do so.
