[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Oscar N. Onyema, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Igbo. 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.

Biased editing
[edit]Care to explain what you were thinking when you made this edit? You seem like you've been around for a while so you should know biased editing like that is completely unacceptable.—Neil P. Quinn (talk) 02:52, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
- I see. Thanks for the explanation. I'm glad you've gotten your account back, and I certainly hope that you'll keep it more secure in the future.—Neil P. Quinn (talk) 05:09, 12 September 2015 (UTC)

[edit]Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Diezani Alison-Madueke Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please 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 notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Side Note : Please, Cease And Desist from editing Wikipedia articles until you are at least familiar with the basic policies of this environment Celestina007 (talk) 19:35, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
DS notice
[edit]Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.One of your recent edits on Melania Trump unwittingly violated the process in place at this article. Please engage in the talk page discussion before restoring any challenged material, such as the White House portrait. — JFG talk 02:26, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

Edit summaries are important
[edit]It is considered good practice to provide a summary for every edit, especially when reverting (undoing) the actions of other editors or deleting existing text; otherwise, people may question your motives for the edit.
Wikipedia is a team work and we need each other. We value your contributions. It's good you leave a summary so we can all know what you are contributing.
Accurate summaries help other contributors decide whether it is worthwhile for them to review an edit, and to understand the change should they choose to review it. When a major edit (e.g. deletion of a substantial amount of text, a significant addition, or a substantial rewrite) doesn't have an edit summary, there are fewer reasons you get many of the editors confused. Summaries are less important for minor changes (which means generally unchallengeable changes such as spelling or grammar corrections), but a brief note like "fixed spelling" is helpful even then.
To avoid accidentally leaving edit summaries blank, you can select "Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" on the Editing tab of your user preferences
See Help:Edit_summary for more.
You are doing a great job.

[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Phillips Edison & Company, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page President (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

Deleting image on page of John F. McKeon
[edit]Why did you delete the image I added on the page John F. McKeon? Note that the present image is very small, of low quality and is nominated for deletion. Therefore I found it useful to add the other image as well. Wouterhagens (talk) 18:43, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
The article is about a different John McKeon than the one in the photo you added. The photo in the infobox is the correct John McKeon however.
