July 2020[edit]

Hello, I'm Harsh 2580. I noticed that in this edit to Myyrmanni bombing, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. 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. - Harsh (talk) 04:24, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

June 2021[edit]

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. Thanks!

Requesting some article expansion help[edit]

Greetings,

Came across your recent edit to article Georgia (country). I was looking for some proactive help in a chronological merging

Coastal and port cities on Black Sea coast (list) (to create an interactive map further for the article) from some one who is acquaint/ interested in Black Sea region. Pl. visit the section list and help out if you find interested.

Thanks and warm regards

I am looking for article expansion volunteers, can you help? (talk) 07:08, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit summaries[edit]

While it is good that you are using edit summaries, edit summaries that merely state that you "edited" something, like this, are honestly rather useless as they provide no information: we know you edited the article/infobox or even section. What you changed, and why, are far more important. Please ensure that your future edit summaries include that information.--Jasper Deng (talk) 20:47, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Anatoly Dyatlov[edit]

Hi, can you please confirm that when you removed the verification needed tag on the above-named article that you did verify that the source provided supported all of the claims made in the text preceding it? An IP had modified that text from what it originally stated, which was what prompted the addition of the VN tag, and your edit summary stated that you were removing the tag but not whether you'd done any verification. If you have not verified that the text is supported by the provided reference, can you please reinsert the VN tag? Thank you. DonIago (talk) 15:23, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Doniago, I can say that the source "Chernobyl: How it was" did verify that Dyatlov's death was caused by his radiation sickness from the accident. As for the other claims made, they were already there before the text was modified, so if you could, let me know if I should verify those too. Thanks! Dark4tune (talk) 17:43, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it would be a bad idea to verify the entirety of the text supported by that reference if you have it on hand, but my primary concern was the text added by the IP, since you've probably noticed that there's a lot of well-meaning editors who will insert text into sourced text that the source doesn't actually support. Thanks for the verification! DonIago (talk) 18:37, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

May and June 2023[edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the page Belgrade school shooting‎ has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. Thank you. Aloha27 talk 18:58, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent Bold edit was Reverted. Per BRD, it's time for us to Discuss this on the talk page. Please don't edit war by reinstating the edit. Let's see if a consensus can form to keep it or an alternate version.

This is about the background information in Belgrade school shooting.—Alalch E. 12:13, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

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

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

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. You have named the perpetrator in the Infobox which is against WP:BLPCRIME and Talk:Belgrade school shooting#Naming the suspect. You also have been noticed there. -- DragonFederal (talk) 08:13, 19 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

We have already established not to name the perpetrator in the article, and my edit has been reverted. You appear to be somewhat late to the party. Dark4tune (talk) 22:02, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction to contentious topics[edit]

You have recently edited a page related to COVID-19, broadly construed, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

January 2024[edit]

Your recent editing history at COVID-19 lab leak theory shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
