[edit]What to type | What it makes |
---|---|
{{subst:uw-advert1|Article}} | Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages, as you did to Article. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. |

Three revert rule
[edit]What to type | What it makes |
---|---|
{{subst:uw-3rr1|Article}} | Welcome to Wikipedia! Although one of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view, we would like to remind you not to undo other people's edits, as you did to the page Article, without explaining why in an edit summary. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Thank you. |
{{subst:uw-3rr2|Article}} | Please refrain from repeatedly undoing other people's edits, as you are doing in Article. It appears you may be engaged in an edit war. The three-revert rule (3RR) prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, please discuss disputed changes on the talk page. Thank you. |
{{subst:uw-3rr3|Article}} | Please stop reverting other people's edits, as you are doing in Article. You are in danger of violating the three-revert rule. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. If you revert again, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia without further notice. Please discuss any disputed changes on the talk page. Thank you. |
{{subst:uw-3rr4|Article}} | You have violated the three-revert rule on Article. Any administrator may now choose to block your account. In the future, please make an effort to discuss your changes further, instead of edit warring. |

Moves
[edit]What to type | What it makes |
---|---|
{{subst:uw-move1|Article}} | Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Article, without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. We have some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. |
{{subst:uw-move2|Article}} | Please do not move a page to a title that is harder to follow or move it unilaterally against naming conventions or consensus, as you did to Article.

If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Thank you. |

Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, you may not know that Wikipedia has a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance.

You have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide images that you may find offensive. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. |
{{subst:uw-notcensored2|Article}} | Please do not remove information from articles, as you did to Article. Wikipedia is not censored, and content is not removed on the sole grounds of perceived offensiveness.

Neutral point of view
[edit]What to type | What it makes |
---|---|
{{subst:uw-npov1|Article}} | Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view.

Please remember to observe this important core policy. Thank you. |

{{subst:uw-own1|Article}} | Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia.

[edit]What to type | What it makes |
---|---|
{{subst:uw-spam1|Article}} | Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Article do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. |
{{subst:uw-spam2|Article}} | Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Article. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. |
{{subst:uw-spam3|Article}} | Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Article. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. |
{{subst:uw-spam4|Article}} | This is the final warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits. The next time you insert a spam link, as you did to Article, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines. |
{{subst:uw-spam4im|Article}} | This is the only warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits.

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. |
