October 2018

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Your recent talk page comments on Talk:Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carrier were not added to the bottom of the page. New discussion page messages and topics should always be added to the bottom. Your message may have been moved. In the future you can use the "New section" link in the top right. For more details see the talk page guidelines. Thank you. - wolf 00:12, 22 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

January 2019

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Winston Churchill, 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.
Note: in regards to your recent edit summary; "apologies, I had meant to start adding the sources last night but fell asleep!", it is somewhat akin to "the dog ate my homework". The point is, when adding content, you need to add reliable sources at the same time. Otherwise your edits will be reverted. Thank you - wolf 11:58, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Thewolfchild: pleased to meet you. May I ask, what OR was that? You have failed to mention the sources I cited in my edits. The sources clearly state that presentism has been employed in some of the recent negative critiques of Churchill.Roland Of Yew (talk) 12:10, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I see that now. The point is, you added content that had to be reverted as it wasn't properly supported. This notice is just a standard template to explain why your edits were removed and to ensure you are aware of Wikipedia's sourcing policies. The additional note was to address the excuse you added in your edit summary and is, I believe, self-explanatory. Any discussion regarding the actual content of the edit, that is now in place, should be held on the article's talk page. I have nothing to add on that front at this time, but it's possible others might. - wolf 12:38, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Winston Churchill, 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.

The "show preview" button is right next to the "publish changes" button and below the edit summary field.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance.
Note: Many articles, especially high profile articles such as this one, are on the watchlists of numerous editors. When you make multiple, needless and easily avoidable edits such as the near-dozen you made here, all to fix minor errors that could have been addressed using the preview function, they show up on those watchlists. Editors, especially ones invested in that article, have to go through each and edit to check them. You can spare your fellow editors this time-consuming annoyance by previewing your edits first before saving them. Thank you - wolf 12:12, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Thewolfchild: Sorry about that, I have dyslexia and mostly blind in one eye, I’ll try to make my edits Ferrer in number.Roland Of Yew (talk) 12:24, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure if this was due to your conditions, but your replies to these notices were apparently swapped in error. I've reversed them and added my replies. Thank you for your acknowledgement and response regarding the preview function. - wolf 12:38, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Frenzie23. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to United Kingdom seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Frenzie23 (talk) 08:03, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
