Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a message letting you know that one or more of your recent edits to Un has been undone by an automated computer program called ClueBot NG.

Translation

Please don't machine translate articles. It produces inaccurate results and frequently the result is incomprehensible. Your translation of 21 Baza Lotnicza - which you then moved to 21 Lotnicza Baza - although undoubtedly well intentioned, simply led to the article being deleted as gibberish. If you'd left it to the people at WP:Pages needing translation into English, it might have been translated by someone with the necessary knowledge and we would still have it.

James Clark Ross

Many thanks for reverting that IP on James Clark Ross. The edit was unpleasant, conspicuous, and undoubtedly vandalism, and the IP had already received a templated warning for another edit, so should certainly have received another for this one. I've accordingly issued a level 3 warning. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:25, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

Attempting to Revise Company Page Post Rebrand & Page Keeps Getting Taken Down

Hello,

I would very much appreciate some assistance in setting up a new page and confirming that the page remains on Wikipedia and is not taken down after it is created. We've attempted to create a new page for our rebranded company several times today and after a few minutes, the page is gone. Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide.

Best, Savannah — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.165.69.153 (talk) 18:27, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please can you tell me what your company is (wikilinks would be helpful)? Danski454 (talk) 18:31, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We are Brinks Home Security, we do not currently have a page but we are referenced on our former company's page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MONI_Smart_Security#Brinks_Home_Security — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.165.69.153 (talk) 18:34, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I'm requesting a technical move (because the page already exists). Danski454 (talk) 18:47, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The move has been completed. Danski454 (talk) 18:55, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Glencoe Massacre

There's been a recent addition to the article about including Hendersons - I think it was added, then removed and you may have then added it again. I've taken it out and explained why on the Article talk Page.

I extensively rewrote this article, because I felt it was an interesting topic and I enjoy the challenge, so I did a lot of research. I have not found any reference to the Henderson's in any account. There is no mention of them on any of the memorials commemorating it.

That doesn't mean it doesn't exist - but if so, I'd like to see references, not simply those that appear on the Henderson clan Wikipedia page. There's also a lot of nonsense talked about clans and septs (as explained in part of the rewritten article).

I've no objection to adding stuff, Wikipedia is a collaborative workspace - but I've spent a lot of time on this article making sure everything can be sourced from third party materials, including accounts of the 1695 Parliamentary Commission. So before we add stuff that doesn't appear in any of the sources, I'd like a reference and if it is going to be added, it doesn't belong in the lead paragraph.

Hope that makes sense.

I did not re-add any material that you removed, my only edit was reverting vandalism, by reinstating an infobox and removing a reference to Hollywood in the lead. See Special:Diff/847328422 --Danski454 (talk) 15:58, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies - I guess I need to figure out who's changing what :). Robinvp11 (talk) 14:11, 13 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Lumen Prize

got your message re the above article. I have a clear message in the comment box for the edit. The section was a cv style listing of winners, which was referenced by the Lumen prize itself. It's a good edit, do the research. 198.58.163.19 (talk) 16:47, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism on Lincoln Academy (Newcastle, Maine)

I would like to report vandalism on the page Lincoln Academy (Newcastle, Maine). All of my edits were unjustly removed by a user under the name Fini Opus. Please see talk page of said article.

Thank you, 132ARb6558 (talk) 13:20, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have the reverted the edits, the sources you cited appear to be reliable. --Danski454 (talk) 16:31, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Danski454 Would it be necessary to put a semi-protection on this article, or are there other requirements that need to be met first?

Thanks,

132ARb6558 (talk) 23:17, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The vandalism does not appear to have continued, however semi-protection would be unlikely to be applied even if it were, since semi-protection is usually only applied when a page is vandalised by multiple new or unregistered accounts. --Danski454 (talk) 16:37, 5 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Zero 2 Infinity

Hi Danksi, Thank you for your message. I am not sure where to write a response so I will do it here. The changes I made reflect the official will of the company, and as it is our page (created and maintained by us) we would like to have these changes made. They may seem silly but it is part of a corporate event.

Thanks, — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.56.0.40 (talk) 12:59, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@81.56.0.40: if you are an employee of the company you may have a conflict of interest and should not edit the page. Additionally, please do not change link destinations to ones that a reader would not expect, as this can cause confusion. --Danski454 (talk) 13:04, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
