Hello! I noticed your contributions and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. You are welcome to edit anonymously; however, creating an account is free and has several benefits (for example, the ability to create pages, upload media and edit without one's IP address being visible to the public).

Infobox timestamps

[edit]

Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. Welcome to Wikipedia! I just wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions were not quite right. When updating statistics within the infobox of a footballer, please make sure you update the timestamp at the same time, so that both readers and fellow editors know when the information was last updated.

You can do this by replacing the existing timestamp within the |club-update= or |pcupdate= parameter for club stats, or the |nationalteam-update= or |ntupdate= parameter for international stats. For articles that use a DMY date format, use five tildes (~~~~~), or for MDY dates, use {{subst:mdytime}}. This will generate the specific time the update was made.

If you have any questions about this, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you, Mattythewhite (talk) 01:56, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please keep this in mind. Mattythewhite (talk) 20:34, 1 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Information icon Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! David Biddulph (talk) 10:50, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Also see United States at the Olympics, where you may need to discuss on the article's talk page. --David Biddulph (talk) 10:52, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm HouseBlaster. I noticed that you made a change to an article, La Corde du pendu, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. HouseBlastertalk 00:03, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. It is not a scoreboard. As such, match results should only be updated after full-time. Please see WP:LIVESCORES. Walter Görlitz (talk) 17:51, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Operation Overlord people

[edit]

See Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2022 May 1#Category:Operation Overlord people. It might be a good idea to stop adding this category to any more articles while its deletion is being discussed. Thanks. BilCat (talk) 01:45, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm HaeB. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Sidney S. Woods, 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 referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. HaeB (talk) 04:34, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
