Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Chris Evans (presenter), did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Richard Hammond. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. L'Oiseau Lybre (talk) 12:51, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please familiarise yourself with MOS:ETHNICITY before attempting to change any more British nationalities in biography articles. These need discussion of how the subject refers to themself and how they are treated in sources. Without that consideration they should not be changed. Thanks.

Your recent editing history at Julie Walters ‎ shows that you are currently 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. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
Also at John Lennox, Paul S. Walsh and Mike Brewer. Please refer to edit summaries and my previous advice on your talk page. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 16:08, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please also use genuine edit summaries. Your edit summaries are non existent or else do not describe your edits (changing nationality is not fixing a typo). Thanks. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 16:16, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
