Hello, I'm MPFitz1968. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Fuller House (TV series), 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Please refrain from making nonconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Quantico (TV series) with this edit. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. CAPTAIN RAJU ^(✉) 18:03, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Mariah Carey. Your edits have been or will be reverted or removed.

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

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. —IB ^{[ Poke ]} 16:23, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Baby, It's Cold Outside (Scandal). Jdcomix (talk) 00:45, 17 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for March 22

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Wicked City (TV series), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Chicago Fire. 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.

Your edits

At this point, edits like this (what viewers panned the critic? That's a statement with no back up to be found) and this (television series don't attack each other; it's stupid writing) can definitely be deemed as damage to the encyclopedia. Learn how to edit within our guidelines, use actual sources to back up your statements, and stop trying to create controversies where there are none at all.

Hello, I'm MPFitz1968. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Fuller House (TV series), 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. This edit: I'm curious where you got this info. You may add it back in if you can also cite a reliable reference that supports it. MPFitz1968 (talk) 14:19, 2 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

July 2016

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Mandy Moore, 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. 4TheWynne^{(talk)(contribs)} 00:46, 13 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WP:COLOR

Greetings. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Private Practice (season 1), contributed colours that may cause accessibility problems for users with certain types of visual disabilities. We aim to use colours that meet the WCAG AAA standard for accessibility. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines on this subject, which can be found at WP:COLOR; this page provides further information about contributing AAA-compliant colours to this encyclopedia. For information specific to templates used in articles about television, please also see Template talk:Infobox television season/Archive 3. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the 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.

If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, like you did at 2016–17 United States network television schedule, you may be blocked from editing. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. AdamDeanHall (talk) 22:51, 7 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Images in article text

I ask that you please read WP:ACCESS and understand why we can't have logos or images within the body of article text. We don't do that because screenreaders for the blind and visually impaired must be able to read an article cleanly without any errors, and adding a logo in that text, like you did with the schedule article (which is not vandalism, as alleged above; I see what you were doing but as I'm saying, anything done for simple decoration needs to be deliberately thought out before being put in) or Grey's Anatomy complicates that screenreading process, and otherwise makes reading the article distracting. Thank you in the meantime for improving your editing processes and trying to understand them better. Nate • (chatter) 23:44, 7 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Revenge (TV series), 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. Melcous (talk) 13:08, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Unconditionally. Sundayclose (talk) 15:09, 28 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

ANI notification

There is currently a discussion at WP:ANI regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is User:AdamDeanHall jumping the gun with WP:AIV reports. Thank you. RunnyAmiga ※ talk 22:03, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

September 2016

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Waiting for Tonight, you may be blocked from editing. Rob van vee 14:52, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

To give you more detail about the problem with the edit, you stated that the song was "the best of her career" without a reliable source. That is a personal opinion, and a very bold one. Additionally, you need to start using edit summaries on every edit. Sundayclose (talk) 14:58, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at MacGyver (2016 TV series), 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. Wylie pedia 17:27, 24 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

October 2016

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Wicked City (TV series). Sundayclose (talk) 16:06, 8 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Howiebraunstein, is there something about "unsourced" and "no personal opinion" that you don't understand? If so, please respond here and I'll try to explain. If you don't ask for help with the problem of adding unsourced information your edits can be interpreted as vandalism and flagrant disregard for Wikipedia's policies. I'll be happy to try to help you, but if you continue with this pattern of edits without at least acknowledging what the problem is, I'm afraid I have no choice but to make sure you are blocked from editing. Please read WP:BLOCK if you don't understand what a block means for you. I hope you will respond here. Thanks. Sundayclose (talk) 16:13, 8 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Since you have made edits since the above message and have not responded here, I have no choice but to conclude that you refuse to discuss your problem edits. And you continue to make unsourced additions. After the next problem edit, you'll need to explain yourself at WP:ANI or get a block. Sundayclose (talk) 21:35, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Gobonobo. I noticed that you made a change to an article, CNN, but you didn't provide a reliable source.

If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. gobonobo ⁺ ^c 11:03, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sean Spicer

You are violating one Wikipedia's core policies by adding uncited, unfootnoted personal-life claim about a living person. Per WP:BLP, personal-life claims about a living person must have reliable-source citations. In addition, you are falsifying an article by deliberately placing an uncited claim within a cited passage. Finally, you are edit-warring to do so. I am reverting your violative change, and if you continue to vandalize Wikipedia by making unverified claims about a living person, an admin will block you from editing.--Tenebrae (talk) 02:03, 23 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

April 2017

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. 183.171.183.227 (talk) 07:25, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

October 2017

This is your only warning; if you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory content into an article or any other Wikipedia page again, as you did at Untitled Woody Allen Project, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Sundayclose (talk) 14:46, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm MPFitz1968. I noticed that you recently removed content from Selena Gomez 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 the 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.

Hello, I'm Ebyabe. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Sean Gunn, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Electricity (Silk City and Dua Lipa song), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages New Rules and IDGAF (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
