Hello, I'm SummerPhD. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Disneymania 2 without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks!

Hello, I'm Tutelary. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Bratz: Motion Picture Soundtrack  with this edit, without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Tutelary (talk) 20:46, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

Please refrain from making nonconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Bratz: Motion Picture Soundtrack with this edit. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism. Thank you. Tutelary (talk) 21:33, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

		The Special Barnstar
		Congratulations for your sharp dedication to truth at Bratz: Motion Picture Soundtrack with your two attempted removals of hoax material in September 2014. You were the only one who saw through the false listing created by the Bronx Hoaxer. Good eye! Binksternet (talk) 19:37, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

Notable people

Mikaela, what did you not understand when I told you the first time? In the words of another editor:

“ Lists of people must meet the criteria listed at WP:LISTPEOPLE. Articles have been protected to prevent these additions and/or the editors in question blocked when they persistently continue to reinsert inappropriate material. If a name is included in the article in this way, it has to show that it's relevant to the subject by meeting WP:LISTPEOPLE. Just because a station lists its employees doesn't mean Wikipedia needs to as well, and other station articles needing similar cleanup doesn't mean this one doesn't need to be cleaned up, because whenever it's actually discussed on a station article, the end result is the same; the names that don't meet WP:LISTPEOPLE are removed. Wikipedia is also not a directory. See here, here, and here for previous discussions about this. ”

In other words -- Don't add names that do not have an article! Corkythehornetfan | Chat? 00:12, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at The Masked Singer (American season 2), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Magitroopa (talk) 17:37, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

Deaths in 2020

I'm not sure why you removed the Harry Hains entry from Deaths in 2020 as you didn't leave an edit summary explaining your actions. It appears that you rarely use edit summaries, despite community consensus that they should be used. Please consider doing so moving forward. In the meantime, I've reverted your removal of the sourced content as, per the FAQ at Talk:Deaths in 2020, redlinks and redirects are maintained for 30 days.-- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 20:29, 10 January 2020 (UTC)

Realiable sources

Why is this unreliable? Please, explain. Expecially from someone who adds CODs basing themselves on FB comments. --Folengo (talk) 19:34, 17 January 2020 (UTC)

January 2020

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Deaths in 2020, part 2

If you don't know how to make proper changes to a page, like this at DI2020, please leave it for others who do or request it at the talk page. Thank you. — Wyliepedia @ 22:29, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Block of User:MikaelaArsenault on Terry Jones. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 14:20, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

@Ritchie333: Why does your link to the thread not lead to anything like that? Ref ^(chew)(do) 22:11, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

Thank you. User is a regular visitor to a page I edit daily, and has caused some disruption generally, though mostly I suspect due to innocence and lack of craft. Ref ^(chew)(do) 07:34, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Signature

A minor issue: when signing talk page posts, the ~~~~ should be the very last thing in your post. It seems that you might instead be signing with ~~~~MikaelaArsenault.

It's also possible, instead, that you modified your default signature at Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-personal, in which case I'd suggest blanking it out there and un-checking the "Treat the above as wiki markup" (if it is checked). (If you respond to me here, please prefix it with {{Re|AlanM1}} to notify me.) Thanks. —[AlanM1(talk)]— 23:58, 29 January 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Ellis Marsalis Jr., but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Materialscientist (talk) 10:00, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

[action recommended] This talk page cleanup

You may wish to remove any messages that you have read, and no longer consider necessary to use as a starting point for discussion. This is allowed by the Wikipedia personal talk page policies. --Gryllida (talk) 22:33, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

[action required] Live chat

Please take some steps necessary to ensure that you do not, ever, come to the live chat from a mobile. It is a very disruptive thing to do: we start typing a response, and then you disappear from the chat before receiving it. This is counter productive, and is making it enormously difficult to converse.

Please do something about it. Thank you. --Gryllida (talk) 22:33, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

I'm sorry about that, and I'll make sure to do it today when I have access to my computer later today. MikaelaArsenault (talk) 10:04, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

[action recommended] Responding to messages on-wiki

To reply to a message, click 'edit' next to a section heading. Type your message at the end, followed by four tildes. Then click publish. Please give it a try; it is an essential skill for on-wiki communication, particularly when editing together with others. --Gryllida (talk) 22:33, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

I've re-added the section about voice overs, not sure it's a great addition to the article but I found a ref, hope that's ok with you, revert if you disagree Joseywales1961 (talk) 13:03, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

It’s okay with me, but I'm still not sure if it’s a great addition to the article.

Warning

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Deaths in 2020, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. WWGB (talk) 01:22, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

What do you mean by a warning? MikaelaArsenault (talk) 01:41, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

It means you are not doing the right thing, so please stop. Do not remove a valid death entry just because the date is wrong. WWGB (talk) 01:44, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

I'm sorry, and I will stop. MikaelaArsenault (talk) 01:49, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Your question on IRC

I wanted to respond to your question. It is important to have discussions on talk pages, but it's also important to understand that you must wait for people to respond. It's generally considered polite to wait up to 3-5 days for a response as other people don't necessarily check Wikipedia every day. Waggie (talk) 02:14, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Touched by an Angel

The fact that certain episodes are not available on a TV channel or streaming platform is irrelevant to an episode list. This information is not notable. As I mentioned in my edits...Touched by an Angel is available on CBS All Access...but some episodes are missing. If your edit for a channel that most people do not have is "encyclopedic", then so is the ones missing from CBS AA...or any other channel/streaming service that shows this show and you must include them. But, since Wikipedia is not intended to keep track of what episodes stream or are currently broadcast in syndication, this information is extraneous and trivial. Donaldd23 (talk) 02:28, 3 May 2020 (UTC)

sourcing

Where is the source for this? You have been repeatedly made aware of the requirements for sourcing recent deaths and articles of living people and in fact have been notified of discretionary sanctions. Can you explain why you thought it a good idea to restore contested content to an unsourced version? Praxidicae (talk) 15:00, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

BLP discretionary sanctions

You were previously warned about discretionary sanctions being in place on biographies of living persons by Coffee in January 2020. I am now, as result of your unsourced edits to Rosalind Elias today, prohibiting you from editing biographies of living persons for a period of one year, and more generally I am also prohibiting you from making any substantive edits to any articles unless accompanied by a reliable source (either using an existing source on the page, or where necessary, by the addition of a new/additional reference along with your edit). This is an arbitration discretionary sanction, logged as such at Wikipedia:Arbitration_enforcement_log#Biographies_of_Living_Persons. You may appeal this sanction by following the instructions at Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee/Discretionary_sanctions#Appeals_and_modifications, or you may ping me for further clarification of precisely what I am intending, should you be unclear about any aspect of this sanction.
