Edit warring at Democratic Party (United States)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring. 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 first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

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.

The full report is at the edit warring noticeboard. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 01:50, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Summaries

Hello. 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)

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. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! UW Dawgs (talk) 13:29, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

April 2017

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to University of California, Los Angeles, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. UW Dawgs (talk) 13:30, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Boston University. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. UW Dawgs (talk) 13:33, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dalmatian Dog

Before you start reverting and especially deleting sections of the article and it's valid sources you should first discuss it. Second, you should not claim that the sources say one thing when they say something completely opposite of your claim...such as claiming that AKC and DACA do not acknowledge the origin of Dalmatian to Dalmatia. To quote AKC: Many AKC breeds have obscure and disputed origins, none more so than the Dalmatian. Researchers have used ancient artifacts and writings to support theories placing the Dal’s birth in the British Isles, Europe, North Africa, and Asia. There is no doubt, however, that by the early 1800s the breed was closely associated with a swath of Central Europe along the Adriatic Sea, the region once known as Dalmatia. So this is a quote directly from AKC website on Dalmatian. DACA says next: Authoritative writers place him first as a positive entity in Dalmatia, a province of Austria on the Eastern shore of the coast of Venice....He has been a dog of war, a sentinel on the borders of Dalmatia and Croatia. From DACA website calling upon AKC directly seen here. So what exactly are you talking about when you say AKC and DACA don't acknowledge Croatia (and its historical region of Dalmatia) as the place of origin? I'd really like to know...but it is a rhetorical question really to be honest. Furthermore the only international authority on breeds is in fact FCI and FCI acknowledges Croatia as country of origin since 1999 officially, meaning Croatia also has patronage over the breed on international level by automatism. FCI also cites several quite old sources such as chronicles (from early 18th century) of Bishops Petar Bakic and Andreas Keczkemety, Book of Thomas Pennant Synopsis of Quadruped published in 1771, Book of Thomas Bewick A General History of Quadrupeds published in 1790, etc. etc. Now I will ask you politely to stop deleting sourced content from the article and stop pushing your POV i.e edit-warring for whatever reason you are doing it.

Important Notice

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

February 2020

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Democratic socialism, you may be blocked from editing. Your removal of the sourced text was also a violation of WP:NPOV. Doug Weller talk 08:36, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for August 9

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Alfonso Ribeiro, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page African. 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) 06:07, 9 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
