@BrandonXLF: I think you may have uploaded the wrong image. The name of the church remains on one line except now the image appears distorted. 207.161.86.162 (talk) 01:53, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

That is because your browser cache hasn't been reset, see Wikipedia:Bypass your cache. – BrandonXLF (talk) 01:55, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

That seems to have fixed it. Thanks! 207.161.86.162 (talk) 02:04, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Warning

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war; 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. --David Tornheim (talk) 05:05, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

@David Tornheim: To what edit war are you referring? 207.161.86.162 (talk) 05:06, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

These two edits [1], [2]. Please read WP:BRD and hopefully that will make sense. --David Tornheim (talk) 05:09, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

There was nothing to discuss (the "D") as no rationale was provided for the singular reversion. How would that meet the definition of edit war provided in WP:EW? In any case, I already started a discussion on the article talk page to better understand what source you are seeking. 207.161.86.162 (talk) 05:11, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Edit summaries

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to American imperialism does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

• User contributions
• Recent changes
• Watchlists
• Revision differences
• IRC channels
• Related changes
• New pages list
• Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! --David Tornheim (talk) 09:34, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Cordless Larry. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, David Miller (political theorist), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Cordless Larry (talk) 07:07, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Please refrain from making test edits to Wikipedia pages, such as the one you made with this edit to Benjamin Hale (philosopher), even if you intend to fix them later. Your edits have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. - Harsh 22:52, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

@Harsh 2580: What leads you to believe that to be a test edit rather than the addition of spaces in accordance with WP:STUBSPACING? 207.161.86.162 (talk) 22:53, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Apologies. - Harsh 23:06, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Thanoscar21. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, James Eayrs, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanoscar21_{talk, contribs} 20:38, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

@Thanoscar21: If you look more closely at the edit, you will see that I was improving the sourcing. 207.161.86.162 (talk) 20:39, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

Oh, I see. Why don't you create an account and start editing? The software flags your edits as suspicious. Thanks, Thanoscar21_{talk, contribs} 20:41, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

What flagged that edit as "suspicious", Thanoscar21? As far as I can tell, the edit didn't even trigger a filter. 207.161.86.162 (talk) 20:45, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

I'm sorry, at Special:RecentChanges there's a software that flags edits as "May be vandalism/bad faith", "Likely ..." or "Highly likely...". It doesn't trip filters. You see, I didn't even know that it was flagging my edits as suspicious when I was starting out; I'm pretty sure the software usually flags based on the edit summaries. You can see this on your own if you go to Special:RecentChanges, and click on " Active filters". Thanks, Thanoscar21_{talk, contribs} 20:51, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

Micronations

I've nominated the article on the book for deletion - it provides no evidence of notability, and I don't see much to be gained by cluttering the hatnote on a more central article. Acroterion (talk) 20:50, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

@Acroterion: Seeing as the PROD has been declined by Ninetyone, I will reinstate the hatnote. Hatnotes are for navigation, not an indication of notability. (Obviously, if the article is deleted at AfD, the hatnote will be removed.) 207.161.86.162 (talk) 22:45, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

Given that it just scraped by, and given that hatnotes aren't meant to be exhaustive disambiguations, I would disagree, but it's not worth the argument. It just seems spammish to include a marginally noticed title like that. Acroterion (talk) 22:51, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

(edit conflict) IP, I don't think this merits a hatnote at the top of the page. If the article is ended up being retained, maybe add it to the See also. But you cannot put it at the top of the article. It is not that significant to merit that, which makes that addition promotional. El_C 22:53, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

@El C: Please take the discussion to the article talk page. 207.161.86.162 (talk) 22:55, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

Will refactor. El_C 22:56, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm C1K98V. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to In the Wings 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 Teahouse. Thanks.Template:Z186 C1K98V ^{(💬 ✒️ 📂)} 03:07, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

@C1K98V: What leads you to believe that edit to have been vandalistic? 207.161.86.162 (talk) 03:08, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

The edit by you made has been reverted because you changed the content and the new link doesn't appear, so a red link appear which is an error. And that has been fixed. If this was test edit, you should use sandbox. Thanks C1K98V ^{(💬 ✒️ 📂)} 03:13, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

@C1K98V: The removed link violates WP:CIRCULAR; the red link was intentional. So why would we assume the edit to be vandalistic rather than assuming good faith? 207.161.86.162 (talk) 03:15, 16 JuI ly 2020 (UTC)

I agree we should assume good faith, and rather than creating a red link, we should fixed it to the option available. Thanks C1K98V ^{(💬 ✒️ 📂)} 03:21, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

How do you reconcile that position with WP:CIRCULAR, C1K98V? Have you clicked on the link in question? 207.161.86.162 (talk) 03:22, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

Yes I have the check link which you are referring to. It's a redirect to that page only. Thanks C1K98V ^{(💬 ✒️ 📂)} 03:24, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

So how do you reconcile that position with MOS:CIRCULAR, C1K98V? (Sorry, I meant to refer to MOS:CIRCULAR before, not WP:CIRCULAR.) 207.161.86.12 (talk) 03:25, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

Yes I have check both the Mos and wp. Imo, we don't refer any book as In the Wings (Froman book) . Thanks C1K98V ^{(💬 ✒️ 📂)} 03:31, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
