NBA signings

I'm going to quote a message from my Talk page:

There is long-standing consensus not to update these until officially cleared with the league and announced by the team or league. The reason these aren't updated until reported by the teams is that the League has to review them and sometimes they don't happen (the league rejects them, somebody fails a physical, etc). Please don't update player articles until the deal is finalized (i.e. - reported by the team(s) involved). The news' job is to report signings as they happen to get the scoop. This isn't a news site, it's an encyclopedia so having these updated immediately is less important than updating them when the results are official.

Thank you. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 00:43, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

July 2018

Your recent editing history at LeBron James shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. —Bagumba (talk) 15:47, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to LeBron James. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. —Bagumba (talk) 17:42, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Floyd Mayweather Jr., you may be blocked from editing. Zappa⚡Mati 05:13, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

August 2018

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Conor McGregor. TBMNY (talk) 15:21, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

May 2019

Hello, I'm HickoryOughtShirt?4. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Eric Decker, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Eagles 24/7 (C) 00:33, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
