See WP:AN3#User:Horseman16 reported by User:Freshacconci (Result: Protected). The complaint was that you were adding unsourced material to the article. Be aware that if this continues after protection expires (in three days) you could be facing a block. If you can find a publication that supports your views, that is a different matter.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Incoming, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Arcade (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.

  Hello, I'm Darkwarriorblake. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Darkwarriorblake (talk) 22:44, 14 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

I directed you to Infobox Video Game I also direct you to WP:BRD which states you can make a bold edit, and if it is reverted you should discuss on the talk page, not revert and threaten to "tell" on someone. If you believe the guidelines are incorrect, take it up at Infobox Video Game or on the Arkham City talk page, do not continue to revert until then or it will be considered vandalism. The infobox is a brief overview and should represent the initial release, FeralInteractive ported an existing game, it should not be in there and it is covered in the article text. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 22:46, 14 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
Don't be childish, the article passed GA as it is, you added a bunch of stuff and I gave you guidelines and articles to check out and you ignored. And you warn me? So childish, seriously. Instead of issuing fake warnings, how about you start a discussion on the talk page or contact the dreaded administration who will surely have your back? Darkwarriorblake (talk) 22:54, 14 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Batman: Arkham City. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Warned you. You're now edit warring. It is mentioned twice in the article. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 22:56, 14 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Talk:Batman:_Arkham_City#Mac_OSx_and_other_versions did it for you. Discuss there, or you'll be reported for edit warring. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 23:01, 14 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
Stop being a child, I've explained why and given you guidelines that back me up, the OSX version is mentioned in the Lede, the format is in the infobox, it is mentioned in the release section with the developer. It is covered as much as it should be, your petty warnings and warring will not be tolerated any further. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 23:05, 14 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for uploading File:Machinarium Soundtrack.jpeg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:47, 20 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

The article Frank Cunimondo Plays George Benson – Live in Concert has been proposed for deletion. The proposed deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Proposed deletion of File:Samorost 2.jpeg

edit
 

The file File:Samorost 2.jpeg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-free album cover being used in a decorative manner in Samorost 2#Soundtrack. Non-free album cover art is generally allowed to be used for primary identification purposes in stand-alone articles about albums, but its use in other articles is generally only allowed when the cover art itself is the subject of sourced critical commentary as explained in WP:NFC#cite_note-3 and the context for non-free use required by WP:NFCC#8 is evident. There is no such commentary for this particular album cover anywhere in the article, and the use of soundtrack album cover art in articles about films or TV programs is generally not allowed for this reason as explained in WP:FILMSCORE and in MOS:TVPRODUCTION, but the same reasoning also applies to video game articles as well.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:35, 6 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Scooter's "Chapters"

edit

Hello. As you appear to be the editor who originated splitting the band's article (Scooter (band)) and their discography (Scooter discography) into so-called "Chapters" whereas the group only has two albums named after said "Chapters", perhaps you would like to comment at Talk:Scooter (band)#Chapter about where these/the rest originate from. If these are fan-derived, as I assume they are (hence why I've gone ahead and retitled the sections on both the band's article and their discography due to me and another editor sharing these concerns), we should not use them as they are not "official", even if peripherally acknowledged by the group. Thanks. Ss112 15:21, 22 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Horseman16, I suggest you find reliably sourced mentions (in news articles) of where Scooter's "Chapters" come from—an encyclopedically written explanation for general readers of Wikipedia as to where they originate from should be added on Scooter (band), or your edits will be reverted per WP:V. You can claim whatever you like on the talk page, "see these lyrical references, archived versions of the band's website and Facebook posts", but all of that is WP:PRIMARY and not desirable to use on the article itself. This should have been sourced on the article at the time you divided things by "Chapters", not after being asked to by me. Please by all means try and tell an administrator that my edits were "vandalization", I'd love to see how that turns out for you. You clearly have no idea what the definition of WP:VANDALISM is on Wikipedia. Ss112 14:48, 24 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
