Happy editing!
Thank you for improving Wikipedia. Please read a bit before editing. You made one big edit to today's featured article, which is not a good idea. Some things are good and some are bad, and the normal result is that it will all be reverted. Next time: please split your edit in smaller portions. I'll tell you what I don't like, and hope that you will fix it yourself, to avoid having all reverted:
- "access-date" is a useful feature - please restore for all online references
- "language = en" is a useful feature once the article gets translated - please restore
- a piped link omitting "Australian" is a good idea - please restore
- removing an established reference such as ABC is not a good idea, you can add another but not replace, especially if that ref was used more than once (as here)
- don't use all capitals even if a reference has titles like that - it's called "shouting"
there may be more, but this for starters --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:09, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
July 2022[edit]
Your recent editing history at Uber 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. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for 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.

roll back CouchSurfing[edit]
it is not particular good behaviour to rollback an edit without making any effort to explain to the reason - so please explain !
Thank you ! ChristopheT (talk) 05:00, 22 July 2022 (UTC) You added unsourced information that is a violation of WP:DUE and isn't accurate.

Do not use websites like this as sources. One good indication you shouldn't is the fact that you can't even go to the main page. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 01:34, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
October 2022[edit]
Hello, I'm LilianaUwU. I noticed that you recently removed content from Ellen Alemany without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Blocked as a sockpuppet[edit]
Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.
If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should review the guide to appealing blocks, and then appeal your block by adding the following text below this notice:
{{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}}. Note that anything you post in your unblock request will be public, so you may alternatively use the Unblock Ticket Request System to submit an appeal if it contains information that must be private.Administrators: Checkusers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or by administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not loosen or remove this block, or issue an IP block exemption, without consulting with a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee. Administrators who undo checkuser blocks without permission from a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee may be summarily desysopped.
