[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. 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. Thegooduser Let's Chat 🍁 00:14, 11 December 2018 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Citizen Canine (talk) 10:22, 11 December 2018 (UTC)
- I believe Citizen Canine might be referring to MOS:SURNAME, as I'm seeing a lot of reverts by many editors to your mass changes to basketball bios to mention a person by their first and last name upon first mention after the lead. Please establish consensus for this before any further related changes. Regards.—Bagumba (talk) 15:23, 11 December 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Carl Eller, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.
It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Thank you. —Bagumba (talk) 12:36, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
Please do not use styles that are unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in D'Angelo Russell. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. You are continuing to ignore MOS:SURNAME, and your fellow editors are having to revert you. Please get consensus for your changes. —Bagumba (talk) 12:39, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
- Hi Ipreferpens! I just wanted to remind you about MOS:SURNAME due to your recent edits on Patrick Mahomes. If you want to add his first name you should gain consensus first, as stated above. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 08:10, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

[edit] Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Drew Brees. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. General Ization Talk 23:47, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did on Harry Kane. This violates Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. General Ization Talk 23:54, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Laurent Gbagbo. Drmies (talk) 18:41, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
- You've been asked often enough about using preview, explaining what you're doing, etc. All this to produce one incorrectly written-out date is a waste of our time and server space. No more, please. Drmies (talk) 18:52, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
- I came here to ask the same thing. Anyway, Ipreferpens?...PREVIEW is such a beautiful thing. You need to try it. Shearonink (talk)
