Please do not make test edits as you did to Talk:Bruno Mars. Please use Wikipedia:Sandbox to make test edits. Thanks, Baseball Watcher 00:29, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did to Bruno Mars. Thank you. Baseball Watcher 02:09, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop changing the birth date of Bruno Mars as you did here. He was born in 1985 not 1986. See here and here. Thanks, Baseball Watcher 02:58, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Do you have a source that says that he was born in 1986? Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 03:15, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You didn't reply. And you're continuing to edit war at the article. If you continue, our blocking policy means you may be blocked from editing. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 03:37, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

We need to follow verifiability policy. All the sources cited suggest he was born in 1985. I've tried searching for something that says otherwise, but I haven't found anything so far that would suggest 1986 is correct. This article, for example, says he is 25, not 24, so again 1985 appears to be correct. Could you please reply here, rather than making more edits to the article? Thanks.

This is your last warning; the next time you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory or otherwise controversial content into an article or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Bruno Mars, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.

Blocked for copyright violations

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges.

Sorry to do this, but you seem to be having difficulty understanding what a copyright violation is. It is not okay to copy text from other websites and paste them into Wikipedia the way you have been doing. [1] Wikipedia cannot host such material. As you have been repeatedly warned about taking material from other websites in violation of copyright, I think at this point you will have to convince an administrator that you understand the problem with what you have been doing before you will be unblocked. I know you have been trying to help improve the article but we cannot have you continue the way you have been. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 19:27, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
