Hello, I'm Serols. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Novomoskovsk, Russia— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Kakhovka. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Serols (talk) 19:03, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use disruptive, inappropriate or hard-to-read formatting, as you did at Ternavka, Skole Raion, you may be blocked from editing. There is a Wikipedia Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Donner60 (talk) 23:17, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that your unreferenced edit contains abbreviations and non-capitalized words that should be capitalized according to Wikipedia's Manual of Style and proper editing. A footnote reference for this statement would be appropriate. Helpful information about editing Wikipedia can be found on various Wikipedia guideline and policy pages including: Help:Getting started; Wikipedia:Introduction; Wikipedia:Simplified ruleset; Wikipedia:Simplified Manual of Style; Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners; Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources; Wikipedia:Citing sources; Help:Footnotes; Wikipedia:Verifiability; Wikipedia:No original research; Wikipedia:Neutral point of view; Wikipedia:Notability; Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons; Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not; Wikipedia:Words to watch; Help:Introduction to talk pages; Wikipedia:Copyright Problems and Help:Contents. Thank you. Donner60 (talk) 23:19, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Also, you broke headings and generally made a mess of the article. I think I've fixed it, but please be more careful when editing. This applies to both supplying only referenced content and not breaking the layout. Walter Görlitz (talk) 21:44, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you blank out or remove content from Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Nevel (town). Donner60 (talk) 23:35, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In response to your question on my talk page concerning reverting your edit, which I explained in part above along with helpful Wikipedia page links and which User:Walter Gorlitz further explained and tried to help improve, I wrote the following on my talk page: :I did not destroy your edit since it is in the article history. Since it is only three sentences, with improper capitalization that should be corrected, and you say you researched it, you could presumably restore it and cite a source for it. You left a bracket and stray word citation in the text after which you inserted the three sentence (with no period at the end of the third one). Then in the following paragraph you inserted a sentence, with improper abbreviation of the month September followed by the remainder of the citation needed and bracket. It is unlikely that the administrative structure citation contains the support for this text and your edit is inserted at a point where you do not seem to rely on this source. I am not writing any of this to be a personal criticism of you because I believe you are good in faith. It is just that there were too many problems with the edit for it to remain or for me to fix, even if I had the source readily available. I previously put on your talk page helpful Wikipedia guideline and policy page links. It may take a little time to look through them but they are not as daunting as they may appear and edits must be in line with them. I hope you will take some time to review these and later add some helpful edits because, again, I think you are in good faith in doing so.

I also might have included that your further edit was after the comment and links left on your page above and after User:Walter Gorlitz's explanation and help. Yet the same type of edit was made again. Donner60 (talk) 04:10, 13 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
