Possible Mistaken Revert

Hi Ging287… The edits were not a mistake or a test. I created Underalls and coloralls and winteralls and Summeralls for Hanes in the 1970's. I just corrected some misinformation and added some unmentioned facts. Why did you remove them without checking? I restored what I had time to restore. Will return in future to add a bit more.MadMadMadwoman (talk) 23:55, 16 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize for the seemingly mistaken revert. However, while one part of your edit seemed to be constructive, one part was not. http://i.imgur.com/AkoQGBt.png <- Articles are meant to be encyclopedic, and not treated like a forum space in that regard. I'm sorry in the regard that I did not elaborate more on that on your talk page.Ging287 (talk) 00:17, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Cape Verde

Hi, about my edit to the Calheta, Cape Verde article: all of the text I removed was added by the now banned User:Pumpie, see this old version. This user was banned because what he/she wrote was completely unreliable. If you read the text, you can see how bad it is. I'm trying to clean up the mess he/she left, replacing his/her text by referenced information, for instance census data. Markussep Talk 16:31, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, the user was banned. However, the reason you're stating is completely false. You don't get banned on Wikipedia for merely contributing. See here: http://i.imgur.com/MYuk4I6.png and http://i.imgur.com/fzah6qh.png . Seeing that, I see your point. But low quality content doesn't get you banned in that regard. Ging287 (talk) 16:37, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Pumpie was banned mainly for continuously making the same serious errors in his/her edits, and responding completely unsatisfactory on remarks and questions. I tried to get some answers from him about how he knew that for instance olives and tomatoes were grown and how mabny schools there were in certain Greek villages, but he never revealed his sources. Since it's hard to verify his statements, and they're most likely wrong, I chose to remove them. If you're interested, you can take a look at this arbitration case. Markussep Talk 16:45, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Alright. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I won't revert your edits again. No hard feelings or hidden qualms. Ging287 (talk) 16:48, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
OK. Markussep Talk 16:52, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Reference Errors on 18 March

Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, ReferenceBot (talk) 00:35, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

you don't understand external links

Don't erase any links to an official website for something. And the external links section goes beneath the reference section on all Wikipedia articles. I undid what you did at Attack on Titan, since people who read the article will benefit from knowing the official website for English speaking people to watch the anime mentioned in the article, as well as where to find the official website to the film mentioned in the article, etc. At John Muir Way you erased a link to the official website of that park, as well as links to government websites showing information about it. Don't do that. Dream Focus 22:23, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:ELNO. Also, the Attack on Titan links may count as a copyright violation. Ging287 (talk) 22:33, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, those don't count as copyright violations because they are official websites. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:11, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Please see both of these talk pages. If there is no response, I will assume it as assent and remove the links. WP:BURDEN is also applicable. Ging287 (talk) 00:22, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
ANN links on Wikipedia articles on anime are perfectly acceptable and in fact are pretty much required.
As for ELNO#12, 1. ANN is not a wiki, and 2. From the page itself: Open wikis, except those with a substantial history of stability and a substantial number of editors (emphasis added). ANN's encyclopedia, while not a reliable source, is accepted as an external link because it is given high regard in the anime industry, and because it has a large number of users. As for the other links, there's also this at the very top of the section: A link to an official page of the article's subject [should be included]. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:50, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Cease talking to me via my talk page. Go here if you wish to discuss Attack on Titan's external links. Ging287 (talk) 01:02, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for March 26

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Giants (Greek mythology), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Eurymedon (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Clinton Foundation

Hi, you removed an edit I made on the clinton foundation page... the edit I made was taking out a 500+ line Apple Service Agreement that was for some reason in the middle of the Clinton Foundation page... Pretty sure my edit was legit.
