  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Simon Sefzik. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Please see WP:OVERLINKING. Also, unexplained edits are really by definition disruptive.

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

  Please stop adding unreferenced or poorly referenced biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Trina A. Higgins. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. lavender|(formerly HMSSolent)|lambast 03:14, 24 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Bruce Braley. Adakiko (talk) 06:22, 24 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in David Joyce (politician), disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Psu256 (talk) 21:09, 17 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm WPEditor42. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Joseph Gargan, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. WPEditor42 (talkcontribs) 01:46, 12 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Victor Adamson, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so!

Findagrave.com is not a reliable source on this Wiki, see WP:RS. Materialscientist (talk) 06:25, 26 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at Corey Jackson (politician), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. ––FormalDude (talk) 06:18, 12 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Undefined reference

edit

Hello! I was fixing ref errors in Joe Biden judicial appointment controversies, and noticed that in this edit you have added a reference named "WashBio", but didn't defined it, so it doesn't work. Maybe you can go back and define it? a!rado🦈 (CT) 12:49, 5 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Well, nevermind, it got fixed by a bot. But take care to avoid such errors next time, please. a!rado🦈 (CT) 16:37, 5 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Read MOS:OL

edit

Common words like "lawyer" or "president" or "governor" do not need to be linked. "A good question to ask yourself is whether reading the article you're about to link to would help someone understand the article you are linking from." Please read MOS:OL to familiarize yourself more. And if your edits are reverted, don't automatically reinstate them without a proper discussion on that article's talk page or with the editor who reverted you.

MOS:JOBTITLE

edit

There has been consensus under MOS:JOBTITLE that titles like "United States magistrate judge" and "United States district (or circuit) judge" do not need to be capitalized. Please take note of this. Also, under MOS:OVERSECTION, one's judicial service is part of their career, thus judicial service should be a subheading under the main heading of "Career" Snickers2686 (talk) 01:17, 7 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Jared Moskowitz, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you can find a reliable source saying he won by less than expected, you may re-add the information. ❤HistoryTheorist❤ 23:45, 21 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Draft:John D. Russell (lawyer). Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Yet again you need to read MOS:OL and MOS:COMMONWORDS. Common items like "lawyer", "associate", "partner" etc. do not need to be linked. You have been reverted multiple times and continue to do so Snickers2686 (talk) 16:05, 7 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
