Disambiguation link notification for February 14

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2007 BWF World Junior Championships, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Zhang Nan (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

February 2013

Hello, I'm TCN7JM. I noticed that you recently removed some content from 2007 BWF World Junior Championships without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks, –TC N7 JM 02:20, 15 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Badminton

Hello tampan, it is really great that you are adding so much badminton draws to Wikipedia and I hope you will add a lot of more draws in the future. The addition of the qualification rounds is very useful, too. On the other hand it is very sad, that a work (like you are right now doing while reformatting the Korea and Malaysia Open) is done twice while a lot of other tasks are still waiting for the first time publication on Wikipedia (like you did with the world junior badminton championships and the qualification for the Super Series, really great). Probably one could include the qualified players from the qualification to the main draws with much less reorganization of the existing sites. If you need help, feel free to ask. If you need some (old) data, I have here for instance the complete draws for all disciplines of the 1949, 1950 and 1956 All England (I could send it to you, if you drop me your e-mail address via Special:EmailUser/Florentyna. Some qualification draws of some world championships are still missing on Wikipedia, too ([1], [2], [3], [4], but there one has to be careful, because everywhere is missing the last round of the qualification). Tournamentsoftware also lists all draws of the All England since 1989, and all the draws from 1989 to 2009 (partially also 2010) are missing here (for instance [5], [6], [7], [8]). So really much things are to do. Best regards --Florentyna (talk) 09:04, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The tampan, I too appreciate having another editor interested in badminton articles, but I am concerned about drastically altering articles. Before you make any more changes, particularly to articles about events already in the past, could you please provide us with reasons why you think the new format should be used?--MorrisIV (talk) 16:58, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The tampan - I appreciate that you may have an aesthetic preference for the template you are using, but the badminton pages on Wikipedia (particularly the Super Series events) have used the same bracket since 2010. If you like your bracket better then you need to provide substantive reasons why we should switch. Otherwise, please respect that many editors have developed a format which we believe best presents the information for the public. Simply changing the brackets on a whim is not acceptable.--MorrisIV (talk) 03:54, 5 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies for not being clearer. When I said that you need to provide justification for the changes you are making I did not mean in an edit summary. You either need to response here on your Talk page, or on the talk page at Wikipedia:WikiProject Badminton--MorrisIV (talk) 13:02, 5 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

WP:ANI

Hello. There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. --Aleen f1 02:55, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please be discuss your major changes to the project coordinator and not just hit your way only, Wikipedia is not yours and everyone deserve to edit. They is the manual of style to keep the consistency of the article, and not you to define the rules. --Aleen f1 12:02, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

2009 All England Super Series

For things in creation you can use subpages of your account, commonly it is User:The tampan/sandbox. When it is finished, you simply copy the content into the existing page, here 2009 All England Super Series. So this way you can avoid publishing wrong information during the process of article creation. Florentyna (talk) 12:30, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

PS: Nevertheless 2009 is a bad example, because there are already existing all the results, click for instance on Men's singles on the page there. For the years 2008 and below it is worth to add the All England results. Florentyna (talk) 12:35, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

March 2013

Your recent editing history at 2013 All England Super Series Premier shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your 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.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. What you're doing here is unacceptable. In no particular order: you are edit-warring, you are reverting perfectly acceptable edits and replacing them with edits that do not follow policy and guidelines, you are not explaining your edits using edit summaries, you are not coordinating with the relevant Wiki Project as you were asked to, you refuse to communicate with other editors. Any one of these may lead to a block: I suggest you start playing by the rules. Drmies (talk) 15:02, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for persistent disruptive editing. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Drmies (talk) 21:39, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
