2006-2007 postings[edit]

Hello, welcome to Wikipedia. Can you back up this change with a source? Please see WP:CITE. Thanks! Johntex\^talk 20:43, 8 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for adding the information about the hard hat to the Franz Kafka article. Do you have the exact page number(s) where Drucker talks about this? A full reference is needed for the article. See that talk page for a discussion on this. Thanks. ColinClark 03:13, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please stick to relevant edits only (Refering to R.L. Paschal High School in particular). Biochemnick 19:24, 24 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Removals from an article[edit]

Hi. I noticed that you made two edits ([1] and [2]) removing people from List of people from Arkansas. Your edit summary states that "this is about achievement." I would argue that it is not about achievement but about notability. I'm going to undo your edits. If you would like to revert my change, that would be fine. We can discuss it here or over at the article. -- Ben 13:23, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A friendly reminder[edit]

		Edit summary reminder
		Hello. I noticed that your edit to United States dollar did not include an edit summary. Please remember to use one for every edit, even minor ones. You can enable the wiki software to prompt you for one before making an edit by setting your user preferences (under Editing) to "Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary". Thanks, -MBK₀₀₄ 21:06, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ocotober 2009[edit]

Please do not add content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did to Crohn's disease. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. DKqwerty (talk) 13:30, 23 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Crohn's disease. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit and is especially useful when reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. DKqwerty (talk) 13:30, 23 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

November 2009[edit]

Hi. Please do not add content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did with this edit to James J. Braddock. Doing so violates Wikipedia's policies of No Original Research and Verifiability. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please make sure you include reliable, verifiable sources when adding material to articles. In addition, it's not a good idea to add comparative money value information in articles, since that information will eventually be dated, and require constant updating. (See WP:DATE.) If you have any other questions about editing, just let me know. Thank you. Nightscream (talk) 01:59, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

February 2010[edit]

Please do not add or change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did to Theodore Roosevelt. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. -MBK₀₀₄ 02:33, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

July 2010[edit]

Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to The Shawshank Redemption. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- AnmaFinotera (talk ~ contribs) 05:19, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

JFK[edit]

I added some references and made a few (IMO minor) copy edits to the SEALs info you added to John F. Kennedy#Legacy. When you get a chance, please glance at it and let me know if there's anything you disagree with (I particularly question whether "command" is the best word, but it seemed better than "branch").

BTW, if you reply here, I'll see it (eventually) on my watchlist. Fat&Happy (talk) 03:35, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Van Gogh[edit]

Thank you for your input however per consensus on the talk page that unreferenced material has been removed from the main biography. See this article Vincent van Gogh's death if you wish to contribute new referenced material...Modernist (talk) 03:19, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Quotations at Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy[edit]

Dear Caracaskid: Please verify content that you add or change by citing reliable sources. I don't see such verification for the content that you added to Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Since you appear to be knowledgeable on the topic, it would be great to have the references that go with the quotations that you provided. It's fine if you provide the reference in a clumsy fashion, I'd be glad to "pretty it up" for you! Cheers. User:HopsonRoad 04:19, 30 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for supplying those sources, Caracaskid. I'll integrate them into the article. It's a little trickier than most articles, because it uses the Harvard reference system. Cheers, User:HopsonRoad 14:26, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wyatt Earp[edit]

Hi. Your addition to the lead for Wyatt Earp:

But it is true that he fought in many fierce gun battles, and (unlike his brothers Morgan and Virgil, and Doc Holliday) Wyatt was never wounded in his entire lifetime, which only added to the mystique.

isn't supported by the article or by any known sources. Wyatt Earp took part in a very few gun fights, as shown in the article. It is true he was never wounded and I moved that portion of your edit to a prior paragraph in the lead. — btphelps ^{(talk) (contribs)} 04:37, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Grand Canyon[edit]

Please do not add or change content, as you did to Grand Canyon, without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to Grand Canyon does not have an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history.

The edit summary appears in:

August 2014[edit]

Hello, I'm Musdan77. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Ronald Reagan, but you didn't provide a reliable source.
