Please stop your disruptive editing.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, 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, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Uness232 (talk) 14:40, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This warning was given to you because of your recent actions in total; but primarily, this is about the Ottoman Empire page. Uness232 (talk) 16:17, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Adding flags?

Old!!man1234561234 (talk) 16:20, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Adding flags in a way contrary to MOS:INFOBOXFLAGS for one, but more importantly, reverting someone who has reverted your edit, contrary to WP:BRD. Uness232 (talk) 16:36, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I get it very much now. Thank you very much. I looked at it and I won't do it OK? And, you said "primarily, the Ottoman Empire." So, "secondarily"??? Old!!man1234561234 (talk) 9:26, 15 October 2021 (IST)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, you may be blocked from editing. Equine-man (talk) 09:37, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Virus. Equine-man (talk) 09:46, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

January 2022

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Longevity myths, 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. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. -- Pingumeister^(talk) 13:49, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

February 2022

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Maratha Empire, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you. Kiran_891 ^(TALK) 12:47, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I would like to point out that, while "Maratha" as a caste exists, its existence does not imply that "Maratha" as an ethnolinguistic denomination has fallen out of use and/or isn't one anymore, and as per your comment, will now seek a consensus on the talk page.

Disambiguation link notification for March 9

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Singrauli State, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ranthambore. 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) 06:06, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Scratchinghead. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse. You are doing vandalism/ Please stop. This is a joke.

Making pointless edits to get EC status was not a good idea

I've removed your EC status, as making null edits to gain it is not permitted. If you remain as an editor in good standing and make 100+ useful edits, you may request it. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 16:37, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: List of breakaway republics during the dissolution of the USSR (December 20)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by MWFwiki was:

The proposed article does not have sufficient content to require an article of its own, but it could be merged into the existing article at List of breakaway republics during the dissolution of the USSR. Since anyone can edit Wikipedia, you are welcome to add that information yourself. Thank you.

The comment the reviewer left was:

I'm not rejecting this, only declining it. I like it, it's well-written, and while it could use some work on sourcing (where the "citation needed" tags are), I am leaving it open for re-submission. However, my primary issue is that it seems to be skirting the edges of WP:REDUNDANT. We have post-Soviet states and the dissolution of the USSR... is there a good argument as to why this information can't be covered in one of these, particularly the former? Indeed, the former has a similar list of states with independence dates, etc. Point being, I need some convicing regarding the notability of this topic, specifically, and why it shouldn't be covered on post-Soviet states. Please feel free to comment here or on my Talk page.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.
