July 2014[edit]

Hello, I'm GiantSnowman. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Kalen Damessi, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Giant Snowman 18:58, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did to Kalen Damessi, without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Giant Snowman 19:30, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't have a source but I was at a game today and he was playing for thistle Ptfcfan (talk) 19:37, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

He's not named here. Giant Snowman 19:39, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia needs reliable sources to verify information; this is especially important about living people. Giant Snowman 19:48, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to David Wilson (footballer, born 1994). This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Giant Snowman 19:38, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Carl Magnay. JMHamo (talk) 11:02, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox dates[edit]

Hi, when updating infobox stats you should update the |pcupdate= or |club-update= parameter by adding five tildes (~~~~~), which generates the specific time the update was made. Cheers, Mattythewhite (talk) 10:46, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Second notification about the infobox dates. QED237 (talk) 09:59, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, when updating international infobox stats you should update the |ntupdate= or |nationalteam-update= parameter by adding five tildes (~~~~~), which generates the specific time the update was made. Cheers, Mattythewhite (talk) 19:41, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

May 2015[edit]

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Tope Obadeyi. Your edits have been reverted or removed.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. Please refer to User talk:Ptfcfan#Infobox dates. Mattythewhite (talk) 13:44, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
