Watch it.

You made an immense unfair revert, attacking an IP editor of vandalism. Watch it. 2A01:110F:4505:DC00:B5A4:6D89:3A1F:3AE5 (talk) 21:14, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It was vandalism, whether or not you post a threat on my talk page. "watch it"??? Really??? Get away from me, troll. Amsgearing (talk) 11:29, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I recently reverted edits you made in the 2018 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series page because driver/team change information is not trivia. They may not be sourced, but we can work on finding sources. A simple check to the previous year’s page shows the importance of this section. As an inclusionist, I will find sources for this info and add it. The tenses should also still be current, as the season is ongoing. Thank you. Willsome429 (talk) 22:58, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I left a message on your talk page. Amsgearing (talk) 23:01, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

May 2018

Information icon Hello, I'm Shellwood. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —specifically this edit to Ron Stallworth— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help Desk. Thanks. Shellwood (talk) 12:20, 15 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Ron Stallworth a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Okay. I think I do need to go to Wikipedia:Requests for history merge - however, after reading that page, I have to confess I'm confused about what I should actually do there. As in, which page do I list as a request for history merge, how do I do it, etc. It's very convoluted and I don't want to screw this up more than I already have. Please help! Thanks. Amsgearing (talk) 01:00, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited John Cale, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Summit High School (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.)

Please see the talk page, where an overwhelming majority (4 to none, 4 to 1 if I include the editor who inserted it into the article) is against keeping this sentence which clearly fails MOS:FIRST and WP:NPOV. The sentence is not stable, it was inserted about 5 days ago and I challenged it immediately upon noticing it (which didn't happen until yesterday). 5 days is not "long-standing consensus" by any measure. 198.84.253.202 (talk) 17:29, 22 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that, you are correct, I was looking only at the removal of the sources, and incorrectly assumed that the sentence had been there long before. Amsgearing (talk) 17:59, 22 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Google didn't let me see that source. Naturally, I searched online for a alternative source for about half an hour. I almost ordered a copy of the Idiots Guide. I assume you can see it! Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 19:43, 22 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, no worries. I just noticed an anonymous IP changed that tidbit in April; surprised no one noticed. Amsgearing (talk) 19:56, 22 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thompson

I have a serious issue with the item around Thompson’s alleged “dislike” of black players and feel it constitutes WP:UNDUE. You have not addressed why you disagree. I will take it to a 3rd party if we can’t work this out between us Rikster2 (talk) 16:34, 12 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Whoa, calm down there fella. Gimmie more than 30 seconds to reply next time, okay? I responded on your talk page. Amsgearing (talk) 16:34, 12 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
sorry, I posted this before reading your last message - I think we are just talking past each other. Maybe slow down on editing the article? Rikster2 (talk) 16:36, 12 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for fixing my sloppy prose

on the Pruitt article, you beat me to it. Cheers. soibangla (talk) 17:51, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have reinserted all the cited material. However I am not in an edit war here. Btw I agree that some of the wording is sloppy, and not encyclopaedic, and I have no problems with you deleting any unsourced material. If you have any problems, with the provisional edit here, maybe we can talk about this briefly, and in good faith, on the Geordie talk page? Thank you.

I'm starting a discussion on the talk page. Amsgearing (talk) 03:30, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon This is your only warning; if you remove or blank page contents or templates from Wikipedia again, as you did at Geordie, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.
