Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at You Can Tune a Piano, but You Can't Tuna Fish. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

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

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Klohinx^talk 19:35, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones, you may be blocked from editing.

You didn't include any citations to reliable sources to refute what The Hollywood Reporter said, so I'm assuming that in Special:Diff/1088248620, you compared the film's budget to its gross, and you decided it wasn't a flop. You can't just subtract one number from another number and come to a conclusion based on it. That's simply not how the film industry works. There are other costs associated with a film besides its budget, and not of the box office gross goes to the distributor. The cinemas that show the film don't donate their revenues to the distributor. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:48, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

That's how you determine a gross. Moreover, if Wikipedia is suppose to be a "Neutral" Position, why is that Critics allowed to edit and insert their own critiques?

This Practice has turned Wikipedia from an Online Encyclopedia to one of a Critics forum in Video Games, Film and Music. Moreover some of the corrections I have made was because the SAME Criticsm was inserted in the Header Paragraph AND The Reception Paragraph which again has scewed the presentation of Film, Video Game or Music into one that is solely based on some critics impression!

I DID include reliable sources to refute that report Jseph1234 (talk) 18:16, 9 June 2022 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Jseph1234! Your additions to Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to prevent copyright and plagiarism issues. Here are the key points:

• Limited quotation: You may only copy or translate a small portion of a source. Any direct quotations must be enclosed in double quotation marks (") and properly cited using an inline citation. More information is available on the non-free content page. To learn how to cite a source, see Help:Referencing for beginners.
• Paraphrasing: Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information in your own words. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues and is not permitted; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources as appropriate.
• Image use guidelines: In most scenarios, only freely licensed or public domain images may be used and these should be uploaded to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our non-free content criteria; Wikipedia:Plain and simple non-free content guide may help with determining a file's elegibility.
• Copyrighted material donation: If you hold the copyright to the content you want to copy, or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license the text for publication here. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• Copying and translation within Wikipedia: Wikipedia articles can be copied or translated, however they must have proper attribution in accordance with Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. For translation, see Help:Translation § License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Persistent failure to comply may result in being blocked from editing.
