Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to County of Bentheim may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Hello, I'm Yopie. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Prince Ernst August of Hanover (born in 1954) without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. 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!

House of Bismarck

Dear Equord, could you explain your deep interest in the House of Bismarck page as all editing you have done, seems somehow to done by the request of a specific family member who seems to want to mislead the readers, you concealed information, omitted information and edit false information. Would you pleas explain. Thank you 2A01:CB00:553:7C00:5831:F5A:2CD:3170 (talk) 23:43, 25 November 2022 (UTC)

I can put your mind at ease, none of this is true. I am not in contact with any family members, nor do I edit in anyone's interest, as my very numerous and certainly helpful edits in hundreds of articles prove sufficiently. Incorrect information or the alleged omission would first have to be proven individually with evidence, the blanket accusation is worthless. On the other hand, I can't see any serious editing activity on your part. So we'd better leave it at that. Thank you. Equord (talk) 16:06, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

January 2023

Hello! You did a lot of damage to the House of Oldenburg by adding large amounts of text with no sources, by changing the headship with false info and by moving a portrait with an new caption not directly related to adjacent text, etc. Please never add new text to Wikipedia articles without citing sources, please do not change image captions so that they become less relevant and please do not claim that anyone else but Christoph, Prince of Schleswig-Holstein (such the head of some branch) is the head of that whole house. Multiple modern sources make it very clear who is and who is not. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 21:18, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

Hello. We should discuss this further here: Talk:House of Oldenburg. -- Equord (talk) 12:39, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

This, here, is to discuss your behavior, not that article. As you have seen, what you did to that article has also been objected to there. Do you intend to continue to add extensive text to Wikipedia articles without citing any sources? --SergeWoodzing (talk) 18:56, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

Absolutely not, rather, in my comment there, I only raised the question in advance whether there were any substantive concerns about my text supplement. So far, no such statements have been made. I will then add sources. Equord (talk) 19:11, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
