I suggest serious contributors get their own Misplaced Pages user name - it is very easy. -- Egil06:33, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
Please stop adding nonsense to Misplaced Pages. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. --Calton | Talk 14:11, September 10, 2005 (UTC)

Hello, I see that you keep editing the Chadderton page of Wiki, changing "Chadderton" from a town to a district. I am sorry to say but you are wrong and I have had to revert your article twice. Please use the talk page before making any more alterations. Thank you.
Crompton was an urban district of Lancashire, England from 1894 to 1974 not an Urban District of Oldham Stop changing all the towns near Oldham to 'Oldham'. Numerous pages have been reversed. Know history before you change it.
(One Pence23:18, 15 January 2006 (UTC))
I fully agree with (One Pence, and once again, on the 14th March several pages about small towns in the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham have been changed to belonging to Oldham. This is incorrect. Please make yourself aware that Oldham like Shaw and Crompton lie within the Borough of Oldham, rather like Manchester and Tameside lie within Greater Manchester. Thank you for your co-operation.

Due to the earlier vandalizm a few people will be watching every edit done from this IP - It looks though that there are more than 1 editor active. Maybe you could register so your edits would be seperated from each other. Agathoclea17:24, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
As you have continued your recent editing pattern on articles related to Denmark and Oldham, despite repeated requests to quote sources or desist I am going to request administrator intervention immediately.
I have quickly counted fifteen requests to stop on this talk page, without reply or a change in behaviour. If a block on the ip is deemed justifiable, editors will have to register accounts to edit; hopefully they can then be held to account individually. Aquilina20:08, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks for your recent edits to The Shamen. I've reversed two of the changes for reasons I've explained in my edit summaries, but everything else has been allowed to stand. I'd like to ask that in future you summarise your edits so that other editors can see at a glance what you've done. You also ought to consider getting an account (if you don't have one already). Here's the standard welcome message for anonymous editors:
Currently, you are editing without a username. You can continue to do so as you are not required to log in to Misplaced Pages to read and write articles, however, logging in will result in a username being shown instead of your IP address (yours is 62.25.109.194). Logging in does not require any personal details. There are many other benefits for logging in to Misplaced Pages. For now, if you are stuck, you can type {{helpme}} on this page and an experienced Wikipedian will be around to answer any questions you may have.
Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as: copyrighted texts, advertisement messages, and texts that are not related to that article. Both adding such unreasonable information and editing articles maliciously are considered vandalism. A user who repeatedly vandalises articles will be blocked from editing.
The Misplaced Pages Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Misplaced Pages. If you have any questions, ask me on my Talk page – I will answer your questions as far as I can! Thank you again for contributing to Misplaced Pages.
Thank you for experimenting with Misplaced Pages. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia, which you are more than welcome to do. --Mais oui!11:39, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Read the warnings above. If you carry on reverting articles when you have been warned not to, will result in your IP being blocked from editing. At the very least, why not make your case on the talk pages for the articles? Leave a note on Talk:Chadderton as to why you feel so strongly it is not a town, and we will consider what you have to say.
With your edit history and the number of warnings you have above, people are regularly checking for your edits, and they will be immediately reverted unless you discuss them. So what's the point? Aquilina16:35, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
Regarding your edits on Scandinavian towns and football clubs - I assume you've got a source, as you're fairly systematic about it. The reason your edits are being reverted is that we need to know the source of the figures. If you tell us which source you're using, we can put your edits back in. Normally for population sources, we need detail of how the figures were produced (ie by conurbation/electoral district/governmental district/...) and preferably a page with a list of all the figures together - ie a "List of towns in Norway population" page. I think the current figures are based on the last census in those countries Aquilina17:47, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
You have been blocked from editing for vandalism of Misplaced Pages for a period of 24 hours. If you wish to make useful contributions, you are welcome to come back after the block expires. If you are collateral damage of the block, e-mail me and I'll review. Talk to your network administrator about local measures to control vandalism. --Nlu (talk) 16:47, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
Your recent edit to Royton was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Misplaced Pages articles. If the bot reverted a legitimate edit, please accept our apologies – if you bring it to the attention of the bot's owner, we may be able to improve its behavior. Click here for frequently asked questions about the bot and this warning. // Tawkerbot215:07, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
Your recent edits to U2 and Steel City derby were unsourced changes to statistical information. Could you not change these figures unless a source is provided? Similar edits without sources will be reverted as possible vandalism. -- Chuq13:07, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
Hi. I've just had to revert a number of your edits: it's the accepted style on Misplaced Pages to only link to an article once from a given article, and never to link recursively (i.e. put a link X within article X) - have a look at WP:CONTEXT and WP:MOS - it's very useful.

Please stop making edits to statistical data in this article without using a reliable source. RSSSF is a standard resource for editors interested in football statistics, and even the quickest glance at , and shows that your edits removed much correct information. Aquilina11:28, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
I will repeat this comment made above, as it still applies:

Thank you for experimenting with the page Michelle Marsh (model) on Misplaced Pages. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.
Please be mindful that Royton is in the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham - NOT the town of Oldham(they have their own seperate articles, and Misplaced Pages is an encyclopedia - not an address label).

These smaller towns actually belong to the much larger Metropolitan Borough of Oldham(please look at the article and see for yourself!)- if you change the Michelle Marsh (model) page again you will be in violation of wikipedias rules (see 3RR for an explaination of this) and I will present your edits to a Misplaced Pages administrator who may find it nessassary to block you from Misplaced Pages. Consider this an explicit warning not to alter the page again.

This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. -- Rhobite 15:40, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
