Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Hello, I noticed that you may have recently made edits to Talk:2014–15 Russian military intervention in Ukraine while logged out. Making edits while logged out reveals your IP address, which may allow others to determine your location and identity. Wikipedia's policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow the use of more than one account or IP address by one person. If this was not your intention, then please always remember to log in when editing.
As it appears that you have a dynamic IP, which makes it more confusing to ascertain who is involved in the discussion. You are entitled to substitute any signatures you've inadvertently added while logged out after the fact from your account (just be sure to retain the datestamp for the comment). The best practice is, however, to train yourself to focus and ensure that you're logged in.

Apologies, I only noticed after I left messages, that I was not logged in. I wasn't sure if it was acceptable to add in the username retrospectively.

3RR rule

[edit]

You made 3 reverts today in 2014–15 Russian military intervention in Ukraine. Please be advised of WP:3RR rule. My very best wishes (talk) 02:45, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Would you mind being more specific? I can only see the one revert (and I believe that was from a bot). If you are referring to my edits of the lead, I took that to the talk page. The changes were, I believe, backed up by policy and since no case was brought against the changes I reintroduced them. If you feel I've done something wrong I'm happy to go through and explain my changes. I try not to make edits that cannot justify through logic or policy. Neither do I have any qualms if you feel the need to revert them. If you do so, however, would you mind explaining why. Saying something is wrong is much less helpful than saying why it is wrong. Thanks Hollth (talk) 04:43, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I am not implying anything wrong and do not challenge your content changes, however, just to clarify, your reverts (undoing or partly undoing previous work by other contributors, as this policy states) I think were as follows: [1], [2], [3],[4],[5]. Note that those are non-sequential edits (a series of sequential edits by you counts as one edit). Perhaps you do not agree that you partially undid the previous work by other contributors, and this is something open to interpretation, but in my view this is very clear. Happy editing! My very best wishes (talk) 15:04, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Russia's role in the Syrian Civil War, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Islamic State. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

One small edit in section 'Motivations' in article 'Russian involvement in the Syrian Civil War'

[edit]

Colleague, I've updated just now section 'Motivations' in article 'Russian involvement in the Syrian Civil War' at a spot where you had placed a 'citation needed' tag. I've cited more precisely what source Foreign Affairs wrote on the issue. How do you like this version? I think: either Foreign Affairs is an authoritative source and then this is all right, or it is not an authoritative institute and then we should remove the allegation all together. --Corriebertus (talk) 13:40, 19 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Corriebertus I am unfamiliar with that magazine so I cannot say if it is a wp:RS, however, since it has an inline citation it shouldn't matter too much. Hollth (talk) 01:28, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I am neither an expert on this field. But I do have the feeling that 'Foreign Affairs' has a high reputation in the 'Western world' as an "influential magazine" (that's how the Dutch Wikipedia characterizes it). (Which, naturally, does not mean that what they write is automatically always correct.) So, we'll just keep that F.A. assumption in the article, as it is. --Corriebertus (talk) 10:16, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I can confirm that "Foreign Affairs" is considered an RS. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 04:44, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

December 2016

[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Helen Clark, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". It's not a big deal; just so you know. Schwede66 04:39, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
