[edit] 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)
I noticed your recent edit to Batman: Arkham Origins does not have an edit summary. 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. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences â Editing â Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary.

[edit] Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to One Million Years B.C. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. Nutnut39 (talk) 18:02, 8 November 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 11
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 102 Dalmatians, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page 101 Dalmatians (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.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:46, 11 February 2018 (UTC)

Peter Spears
[edit]I reverted your edits to Peter Spears. None of the citations you listed were reliable sources. This is tricky; the policy is explained at WP:RS. Note that even Wikipedia doesn't count as a reliable source! --Yamla (talk) 21:37, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
