February 2014[edit]

Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you recently made an edit to Battle of Jaffna (2006) that seemed to be a test. Your test worked! If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to do so. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

November 2014[edit]

Hello, I'm Obi2canibe. I noticed that you recently removed some content from S. W. R. D. Bandaranaike 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! obi2canibe^{talk contr} 12:57, 23 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

January 2015[edit]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Northern Province, Sri Lanka, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. obi2canibe^{talk contr} 20:38, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

          There's no such as thing as tamil country in Sri Lanka. Are you joking me? The entire country of Sri Lanka belongs to Tamil, Sinhala, Sri Lankan Muslims and Burgher. Please don't make unnecassary claims in order to prove your extremism point. If you won't stop doing this I will report to wikipedia Admins. Frans Adiesha (talk) 21:26, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest you talk to another admin regarding the above matter. preferably a Sinhalese editor, though myself is not a veteran editor. I only see an edit warring on the Nothern-province issue, I believe it would be a happy editing. S.B.M. ^Summon 03:45, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sinhala Admins are there @ si.wikipedi.org .S.B.M. ^Summon 09:01, 22 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I noticed that you attempted to file a deletion discussion (on the article SLA December 2006 offensive) but did not complete the process. Please note that, when listing an article for deletion, a discussion page needs to be made for other users to discuss whether to keep or delete the article. This is typically done by following the steps listed here. Note that if you are editing as an unregistered user, you cannot create a discussion page. Please consider registering an account or asking another user to help you complete the process at Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion. Thank you. ansh666 06:53, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! There is a DR/N request you may have interest in.[edit]

This message is being sent to let you know of a discussion at the Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute discussion you may have participated in. Content disputes can hold up article development and make editing difficult for editors. You are not required to participate, but you are both invited and encouraged to help this dispute come to a resolution. The thread is "User talk:Obi2canibe#Northern Province, Sri Lanka". Please join us to help form a consensus. Thank you! --obi2canibe^{talk contr} 20:53, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The DRN case was incorrectly closed for a period of time, but has been reopened. Please consider participating there. Regards, TransporterMan (TALK) 18:52, 25 January 2015 (UTC) (current DRN coordinator) [reply]

Disambiguation link notification for July 9[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lakshman Kadirgamar, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sri Lankan. 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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:54, 9 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
