Commas

edit

By my perhaps uninformed ideas you are greatly overapplying commas. Such as this. Or this. Or

In 2005, the church partnered with Catholic Relief Services to provide aid for struggling families and individuals in ...

Why add this comma? Are you placing a comma after every date? It seems to be 95% of your edits. Please describe the rules you are following. Shenme (talk) 09:20, 24 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Uniforms of NBA teams

edit

Please stop changing the descriptors of the uniforms on NBA teams from "Home", "Away", etc. to "Association" and etc. as you did here. The uniforms are not described in this way. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 14:55, 13 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Unnecessary comma after leading short prepositional phrases

edit

Please don't go through articles adding commas after leading short prepositional phrases. Use of commas in such cases is a question of taste, not grammar, so it really is a waste of time, and not helpful, going through articles changing the previous editor's text to suit your own personal taste. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 19:41, 28 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Andy Rourke, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Irish (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.)

Linking centuries

edit

Hi there. I notice you've been going around recently and adding links to centuries, such as 12th century into articles. This is generally discouraged and unnecessary as these are common terms and well understood. Unless it's a chronological article dealing with detailed timelines, linking like this is of no use to editors and studies show they are not used. It's not something people need to click on to comprehend, and clicking on it won't give the reader any insight into the current article. This is in line with WP:OVERLINK. Please refrain from linking such common understood terms. Thank you. Canterbury Tail talk 11:57, 23 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

September 2019

  Hello, I'm FlightTime Public. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Kevin Costner, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! - FlightTime Public (open channel) 08:48, 16 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use disruptive, inappropriate or hard-to-read formatting, as you did at Icona Pop, you may be blocked from editing. There is a Wikipedia Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason.

You have been blocked for continued disruptive editing due to your continued mass overlinking of common terms in articles. You've been asked to stop this multiple times, yet you continue and have made zero attempt to engage with the community around this. You are welcome to return after your block, but if you continue this pattern of editing you will be blocked again. Canterbury Tail talk 14:23, 24 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

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 ~~~~}}.

WP:ACDS Notification

edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Orphaned non-free image File:2023 NBA All Star Game logo.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:2023 NBA All Star Game logo.jpg. 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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:24, 22 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
