Welcome

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent edits do not conform to our policies. For more information on this, see Wikipedia's policies on vandalism and limits on acceptable additions. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the "sandbox" rather than in articles.

If you still have questions, there is a new contributor's help page, or you can write {{helpme}} below this message along with a question and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia.

I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you want to get in touch with me. Again, welcome! Mo ainm~Talk 17:23, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

March 2012

Please do not delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at Talk:Carlingford Lough. Such edits are disruptive and appear to be vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Mo ainm~Talk 17:28, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Troubles restrictions

The article Carlingford Lough, along with other articles relating to The Troubles, is currently subject to active arbitration remedies, as laid out during a previous Arbitration Enforcement case that closed in October 2007, and was amended by community consensus in October 2008. The current restrictions are:

All editors on Troubles-related articles are directed to get the advice of neutral parties via means such as outside opinions.
All articles related to The Troubles, defined as: any article that could be reasonably construed as being related to The Troubles, Irish nationalism, and British nationalism in relation to Ireland falls under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per day). When in doubt, assume it is related.
- Clear vandalism, or edits by anonymous IP editors, may be reverted without penalty
Editors who violate this 1RR restriction may be blocked without warning by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offense.

If you are a new editor, or an editor unfamiliar with the situation, please follow the guidelines laid out in the above link. If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it on this talk page first. Thank you.

Carlingford Lough

Not sure what is going on Hackneyhound but these edit are vandalism of Carlingford Lough: [1] [2]. Perhaps your account has been comprised? Bjmullan (talk) 22:18, 17 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I honestly didn't think that it was intentional and I let the first one go, but after seeing the second one I thought that something was wrong with your account. Please be assured that I don't think that you are a vandal but was concerned that your account might have been compromised. BTW my prediction on the rugby result was right! Still a great game but England was the stronger team. Bjmullan (talk) 22:24, 17 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Have a look at your recent edit. This is the third time you have added characters to other parts of the thread. Do you need a new keyboard? Bjmullan (talk) 10:32, 18 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There you go again, this time adding an o to the word would, see here. Just a couple of other things; can you please sign your comments with four ~ and also indent it makes reading and following threads is easier. You indent using the semicolon. Bjmullan (talk) 17:40, 18 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading edit summary

This edit summary is misleading and also breaches WP:CIVIL. There is no one single user refusing to compromise. You have been unable to put forward a proposal which others can agree to so you have decided to make the change against the current stable consensus. This is against WP policy and any change against consensus will be reverted. Bjmullan (talk) 18:16, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Troubles remedies

The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose discretionary sanctions (information on which is at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions) on any editor who is active on pages broadly related to The Troubles. Discretionary sanctions can be used against an editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process. If you engage in further inappropriate behavior in this area, you may be placed under sanctions, which can include blocks, a revert limitation, or an article ban. The Committee's full decision can be read in the Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/The Troubles#Final decision section of the decision page.

Please familiarise yourself with the information page at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions, with the appropriate sections of Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Procedures, and with the case decision page.

You have engaged in aggressive editing and apparent POV-pushing at Carlingford Lough and its talk page. Since your account was only created on 24 February, it raises the question whether you are here to actually benefit the encyclopedia. Nationalist turmoil does not help progress here. I'm sure you know there are many articles about Ireland that can be edited and improved without causing any disturbance at all. EdJohnston (talk) 01:26, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
