Ok thanks for letting me know. Hope it’s ok that I remove this from my own talk page Idk.

Yep, it's perfectly ok for you to remove posts from your talk page. The exception is that you shouldn't remove parts of a discussion, but deleting an entire discussion from your own talk page is fine. --bonadea contributions talk 15:53, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ok

Information icon Hello, I'm Bellezzasolo. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Tom Watson (golfer) have been undone because they 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. Please don't remove infoboxes without discussion on the Talk page Bellezzasolo Discuss 21:10, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No that was a total glitch, I was adding the county and the info box disappeared when I published it . Really weird Midwestman1986 (talk) 21:18, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No worries, I suspected it might have been a glitch after seeing your contribution history. Probably to do with mobile visual editing. Bellezzasolo Discuss 21:24, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm Mvcg66b3r. I noticed that you recently removed content from KCTV without adequately 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; the removed content has been restored. 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.

I specifically said “removed unsourced sentences”. I added a reference to its proper location. Most of that page is a run on sentence without 1 source on the entire thing

Why do you always misspell in article edits and edit summaries? And why the “curly quotes?” Mvcg66b3r (talk) 00:33, 11 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah it was a typo in the edit summary. I’m on my phone and can’t see the entire summary when I post it.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on KCTV; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 01:12, 11 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Thank you. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 03:22, 11 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock after Sockpuppetry

{unblock1|reason= I was recently blocked around 2 days ago for sockpuppetry. I have spent the last 2 days reading Wikipedia’s policy and guidelines. I do admit that I deserved the ban. I was unaware that you were not alowed to have multiple accounts without putting them on your user page. I was not using these accounts to be manipulative or get what I wanted. I was , however using multiple accounts to edit the same page which I apologize for. I would greatly appreciate if you would review my edits on the account Midwestman1986. I truly was trying to add to Wikipedia and added well referenced information. On the accounts Kansas City 1225 that was vandalism and was well before I knew how Wikipedia worked. I just thought you could wright anything you wanted as people in public had told me. I then created the accounts midwestman1986 and historybuff1111, which I used to add referenced information to pages. I also created many other accounts which I apologize for. As far as the page listed Kansas City metropolitan area and Kansas City international airport I truly was trying to make it completely factual and non opinionated. I was bothered when I read the pages because they were created 10 years ago by Missourians and were completely biased. Every time I would try to add a referenced statement in favor of Kansas on one of these pages, they would be removed by users from Missouri like Grey Wanderer who has gone back and undone all of my referenced material and also has created false information. For example he Just edited the Tom Watson (golfer page) I clearly put on that page that the Kansas City country club is in Mission Hills, Kansas then user Grey Wanderer came and put that it is in Kansas City Missouri which is not true and is a total lie. I would like for the Kansas City related articles to not be biased and to be completely factually based which is what I was trying to do. For example you reverted the Kansas City metropolitan area page. Now it is a false page with false information. I had edited it to make it completely non biased. It is not a 15 county metropolitan area , it is a 14 county metropolitan area I added the reason and references to every edit I made. I also put statistics such as labor percentages in each state and which county was the most populated and most densely populated. I truly apologize for using multiple accounts and hope that we can come to an agreement where I agree to only edit with one account. I also know now it is not Ok to evade bans or logging out to use your IP address. I truly want to add referenced material to Wikipedia and hope to regain the trust of the community}} Midwestman1986 (talk) 00:16, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
