Proposed deletion of Robb Pruitt

Hello, MayorOfIacon. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Robb Pruitt, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Robb Pruitt to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.

Thanks, Weinfield (talk) 20:54, 11 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Stephen Keener

The article Stephen Keener has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. $Salvio$ ^{Let's talk about it!} 11:06, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm IronGargoyle. I noticed that you recently removed all content from Funny Farm (novel), with this edit without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, I restored the page's content. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. IronGargoyle (talk) 20:30, 15 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You really need to use edit summaries to explain/justify your edits, especially when removing content from articles. You may have valid reasons for potentially "controversial" edits, but if you don't explain, most of the time other editors will just revert your edits as disruptive or vandalism.

Re: Kit Kittredge

As for why I attached an image of the Airflow in the article, I mostly based it on similar car photos used in Need for Speed: The Run for the purpose of illustrating the page. 'Sides, while links to the car may seem more or less enough, I don't think that adding an image would hurt especially if it's a rather uncommon vehicle. And I understand what you said about what you perceive as a rather obvious statement. Maybe I should reword it a bit, but imo I only used it to emphasize the vehicle's use as a plot device in the film, not to restate things over and over.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at Notes on a Scandal (film), you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. Lapadite (talk) 16:13, 5 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Bigmouth Strikes Again. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, please use the sandbox instead, where you are given a good deal of freedom in what you write. If it wasn't a joke please explain what you were trying to do in the edit summary, and provide sources for anything likely to be disputed. --Cedders^tk 10:03, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Bigmouth Strikes Again

Thanks for the comment on my talk page. You ask what was I thought was comical in your edit [1]:

The lyric I was only joking when I said you should be bludgeoned in your bed is a quote from the novel 1st among equals.

It was the idea that Morrissey was inspired by Jeffrey Archer.

It's not a quote from First Among Equals. So far as I know, it's entirely the Smiths' original words. If you had provided a source or justification for the statement, I would not have assumed it was a joke.--Cedders^tk 11:23, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

June 2015

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at Avenue Q, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you.Flami72 (talk) 09:33, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Nicholas Hoult. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 15:49, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. Thanks!
You have been politely requested at least three times ~~twice~~ before to use edit summaries. 220 of ^Borg 14:27, 28 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Content deletion warning

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at Peter Friedman, you may be blocked from editing.
This is not the only 'level 3' warning you have received. This is why edit summaries are important, you are just removing content and not giving a reason for doing so, as you are expected to. 220 of ^Borg 14:44, 28 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Further to the above, you received an automated warning on 8 May 2015 that you had created a broken reference at Peter Friedman by deleting the content. It is now 28 August. Four months ago you created an error and did not correct it! I strongly suggest that when you receive a notice that you have created a problem, that you do something about it. If you continue to delete content without giving a valid reason, your next warning may result in an immediate block request. 220 of ^Borg 15:04, 28 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

My deletion warning above appears to be the ninth time you have been warned for removing content from pages. 220 of ^Borg 15:09, 28 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

July 2016

I have noticed that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s). Thanks! - 220 of ^Borg 03:05, 14 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
