A belated welcome![edit]

Sorry for the belated welcome, but the cookies are still warm!

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Sawbird. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! Shirt58 (talk) 12:12, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ashleigh Barty[edit]

Your recent edit to Ashleigh Barty is contentious. Please contribute to Talk:Ashleigh Barty#Indigenous in the lead. Thanks, WWGB (talk) 03:28, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Warning[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Ashleigh Barty; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.
Please discuss this matter on the article talk page WWGB (talk) 03:47, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies for that. I will bear that in mind next time. I don’t usually engage with contentious articles and will abstain in the future. Sawbird (talk) 23:48, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
