March 2023[edit]

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, 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, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Hemiauchenia (talk) 19:17, 5 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To be clear here. The reason I reverted is that we don't add "common names" for prehistoric animals unless they are really common, like the woolly mammoth. Hemiauchenia (talk) 19:25, 5 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please also stop your disruptive edits at the Jaguar page's taxobox. – BhagyaMani (talk) 10:53, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Seriously, stop. Drmies (talk) 04:51, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

June 2023[edit]

Please stop. 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 September 11 attacks, you may be blocked from editing. David J Johnson (talk) 10:51, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. 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. Acroterion (talk) 01:21, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If this happens again, your conduct will be discussed at WP:AN3, with consideration given to your previous conduct, for which you have repeatedly been warned. Acroterion (talk) 02:07, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

July 2023[edit]

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

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Hemiauchenia (talk) 22:43, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Some Advice[edit]

Before you start linking pages to a species article you're starting or creating from redirects, I strongly recommend you make the article a few paragraphs long, first. Mr Fink (talk) 01:00, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Genuinely, please stop with this half-assed editing. Your adding nothing of value to the encyclopedia, and it would better if you did not edit at all, rather than forcing us to clear up your mess. Hemiauchenia (talk) 07:27, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for September 4[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of active separatist movements in Oceania, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bougainville. 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.)

Speedy deletion nomination of Sundrius[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Sundrius requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. •Cyberwolf• 13:29, 11 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Sundrius requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Wikipedia and copyright[edit]

Hello Brainzones! Your additions to Pedro Calungsod have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — SamX [talk · contribs] 00:04, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

May 2024[edit]

Hello @Brainzones:, I thought I should further explain my reversion of your edit on List of current monarchies. You are correct that the United Arab Emirates has a president, but that president is the ruler of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi and the prime minister is the ruler of Emirate of Dubai. Similar to Malaysia and the Vatican City, the United Arab Emirates is an elective monarchy. Please read further in the corresponding articles if you have any questions. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 13:35, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
