February 2019[edit]

Hello, I'm Bagumba. Your recent edit to the page Jeremy Lin appears to have added premature information about a reported sports transaction, so it has been removed for now. The transaction is based on anonymous sources and/or awaiting an official announcement. If you believe the transaction has been completed, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. While he has said he plans to sign, he has not signed yet. Feel free to update the page once you can provide a source that he has actually signed. —Bagumba (talk) 02:24, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

July 2019[edit]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Carmelo Anthony, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. We generally don't call them former players unless they say they are no longer looking for a job. —Bagumba (talk) 02:15, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Smethwick, you may be blocked from editing. Valenciano (talk) 06:57, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

October 2019[edit]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at LeBron James. —Bagumba (talk) 13:29, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Bagumba: Hey, my edit on Lebron's page changing his position to PG / SF was not vandalism, I was trying to update the page to the positions the Lakers announced he will be playing this season.

November 2019[edit]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by inserting unpublished information or your personal analysis into an article, as you did at Carmelo Anthony. Seems to be based on unnamed sources at this point —Bagumba (talk) 03:26, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

February 2020[edit]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by inserting unpublished information or your personal analysis into an article, as you did at DeMarcus Cousins. You used breaking news based on anonymous sources again. —Bagumba (talk) 01:09, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

November 2022[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Culture III. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although 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:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
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. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 12:51, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
