Brian Mawhinney[edit]

I've reverted your changes to Brian Mawhinney. Please read WP:RS and WP:EL for what sources and external links are permitted. That source fails both, because it is a forum, which anyone can add to, and secondly requires registration. Peanut4 (talk) 10:31, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please read the above policies and also WP:BLP. If Brian Mawhinney is unpopular among Leeds fans, please find a better, more reliable source, otherwise the edits will be reverted again. Peanut4 (talk) 22:52, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

April 2008[edit]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Robbie Williams. Your edits appeared to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Tabercil (talk) 12:21, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for February 5[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Monkey Island (series), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Telltale (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Adding categories to articles[edit]

Hi Zipgun. You seem to be trying to add Keith Bentley to Category:Barrow Raiders players. The correct way to do this is by adding the category to the article, not by adding the article to the category's page. Please see Help:Category for more details on how to do this. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:01, 30 March 2018 (UTC)‎[reply]
