Welcome![edit]

Hello! I noticed your contributions to Zero-marking in English and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. You are welcome to edit anonymously; however, creating an account is free and has several benefits (for example, the ability to create pages, upload media and edit without one's IP address being visible to the public).

March 2021[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 Ablative case, 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.

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Paper tiger. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. CommanderWaterford (talk) 08:29, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to French declaration of war on Germany (1939), you may be blocked from editing. CommanderWaterford (talk) 08:31, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you blank out or remove content from Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Forward Policy. CommanderWaterford (talk) 09:17, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to German–Estonian Non-Aggression Pact, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

Citation Style[edit]

Hello - you may have noticed I just reverted your edits to Battle of North Point. I mentioned my reason in the edit summary but wanted to explain here as well. Wikipedia's manual of style allows editors to choose from among various styles of citing & laying out cites in an article. Once this has been established in a given article, the norm is not to change that unless there is agreement among editors on the page to do so. This is fleshed out in more detail at this link: WP:CITEVAR. In the case of your specific change, "Notes" & "References" is a valid reference style, an example of which you can see on the same page I just linked, or more directly here WP:CITESHORT. Please reply here or send me a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Sauzer (talk) 11:37, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
