May 2021[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Njd-de. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Gottmik, 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 the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. NJD-DE (talk) 15:18, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

June 2021[edit]

Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at Alex Scott (footballer, born 1984), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Mattythewhite (talk) 01:43, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

July 2021[edit]

Information icon Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → check Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! 220 of ßorg 06:32, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Categories[edit]

Please familiarize yourself with our rules around duplicate categorization. For example, if a person is already in Category:LGBT writers from Canada, then she does not also go into either Category:LGBT people from Canada or Category:LGBT writers alongside that — and if a person is already in Category:LGBT sportspeople from England, then she does not also go into any of Category:LGBT sportspeople, Category:LGBT people from England or "LGBT [anything] from the United Kingdom" alongside that. People go only into the most specific relevant categories, and are not double or triple filed in parent categories at the same time as child ones.

Also, when you are adding new categories, they must go before any stub tags that are on the page. Bearcat (talk) 03:49, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Just a reminder, because you're still doing it. If a person is already in Category:LGBT singers from Australia, then do not also add him to Category:LGBT singers or Category:LGBT musicians, because "LGBT singers from Australia" is already a subcategory of the other two. If a person is already in Category:LGBT writers from England, then do not also add them to Category:LGBT writers, because "LGBT writers from England" is already a subcategory of the other one. And on and so forth: people go only into the most specific relevant categories, and are not double or triple filed in multiple steps up the same category tree.

ArbCom 2021 Elections voter message[edit]

Hello! Voting in the 2021 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 6 December 2021. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2021 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:53, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Daily Mail[edit]

Please do not add sources to the WP:DAILYMAIL to pages, as you did to Amber Gill. It may be a good idea for you to skim through the table at WP:RSP so that you know what is prohibited from use and what is okay to use. You can also check the table before adding a source so you know it's a reliable source. – Meena • 23:09, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

January 2023[edit]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory or otherwise controversial content into an article or any other Wikipedia page.

Please stop adding unsourced or poorly sourced sexual information to biographies. You have been cautioned twice about this already, yet despite those warnings:

  • At Mania Akbari, the source cited said that the Iranian government "had created a new profile for me and had announced through media channels that Mania Akbari had left Iran since she was HIV positive and a lesbian", and furthermore said "the government created a painful game". I'm not sure how her experience of persecution could be misinterpreted as an admission.
  • At Alex Kazemi, you added categories stating he was "asexual" and a "demisexual Wikipedian", though neither of these categories was supported by the article's text.
  • At Anna Freud you added this edit claiming she was LGBT.

Please note that Wikipedia's policies regarding biographies of living people are very strict, and "users who persistently or egregiously violate this policy may be blocked from editing". Magnolia677 (talk) 12:02, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory or otherwise controversial content into an article or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Kiddy Smile.

With this edit at Kiddy Smile, you added Category:Gay musicians, yet there is no verifiable information in the article to support the addition of this category, per WP:CATV. Magnolia677 (talk) 18:32, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
