Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited MTV, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages All Night Long and Rock It (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

Thelma Wright (and others)

Hi. Please note that everything you add to a biography of a living person MUST be sourced. The burden is with you to provide reliable sources for all the text you add. Thanks. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 08:32, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

Westleft (talk) 12:12, 31 March 2018 (UTC)Hello, I created a link for every medal that Thelma won, as they are already in the medal tables listed on wikipedia, (by the games). So before you removed the information I typed you should have tried the link. The only thing I included that wasn't referenced was her 2, 4th place finishes at the world student games. Thanks Westleft (talk) 12:12, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

WP:ANI

As seen here and here, I gave you ample warning before years ago. And now I see you are back at it, as seen by this revert by another editor. You've been warned enough. Do check WP:ANI for a report on you within the hour. Needless to say, I reverted all of this. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 06:12, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

User:Westleft, you are risking a block unless you agree to follow our WP:Verifiability policy. We rely on published sources that can be cited in articles. What you think you know via personal knowledge doesn't matter for our purposes. The next time you make an edit based only on personal knowledge or your own personal opinion about the quality of a singer you may be blocked by any administrator. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 17:28, 18 May 2018 (UTC)

Westleft (talk)Understood, Thank you.Westleft (talk)

• This is not a sufficient response, particularly in the context of the stance you took at AN/I, where not only do you fail to acknowledge the severity of the issues that have been reported, but you do not actually acknowledge any issues, and instead imply that the reporter is being unreasonable for even reporting you at all. These are very serious issues, and prior attempts to address this through communication have failed. Nothing short of substantial assurances that you thoroughly understand the issues at hand and are very willing and able to rectify them going forward will be needed before you will be allowed to make another edit in the article space. You may request an unblock, but your request must be substantial and thorough in resolving these issues, and any potential unblock will still be on the condition that any more issues with arbitrary or deceptive editing will be immediately actioned with the reinstatement of the indefinite block. You will be expected to abide by the core content policies at all times, and to effectively communicate whenever necessary. Swarm ♠ 19:46, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
