August 2013

Please make sure to include an WP:edit summary with every edit. You have made several edits that do not appear constructive to me, which I have reverted or partially reverted because I think I see problems in them and I do not understand why you are making these edits. Please provide an edit summary before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. —BarrelProof (talk) 19:41, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Noticing this edit and this edit (and the following related edit) makes me wonder whether you are trying to promote Scottish heritage in places where it is not really necessary or appropriate. Can you please comment on that issue? –BarrelProof (talk) 19:38, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

And this edit too. Perhaps not just Scottish promotion, but UK in general? —BarrelProof (talk) 19:48, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

And this edit and this edit. —BarrelProof (talk) 20:06, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

And this edit. —BarrelProof (talk) 20:08, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

This is the second time that you've replied to me, I don't understand why you have made the effort to go through all my contributions. My original reason for editing the Philo Farnsworth page is because the John Logie Baird page was linked directly to Philo Farnsworth in the first sentence which caused annoyance for me (before my edit last month). The English version of this site is mainly populated by Americans (I'm assuming), which causes biased articles.

You mentioned my edit on the Alexander Graham Bell page for including his Scottish heritage in the article, yet on pages like this his American heritage is mentioned (Which I don't have a problem with) despite him later moving to England. (talk) Atotalstranger (talk) 15:02, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Alexander Graham Bell, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Misplaced Pages, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you.

• See discussion at Talk:Alexander Graham Bell/Archive 1#Citizenship and MOS:BIO. Seek new consensus for changes at Talk:Alexander Graham Bell. Dennis Bratland (talk) 01:56, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

Please do not add or significantly change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did with this edit to Alexander Graham Bell. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Misplaced Pages:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Tbhotch. Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 02:17, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Alexander Graham Bell. 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 Misplaced Pages'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 Misplaced Pages'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. Dennis Bratland (talk) 23:01, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you disrupt Misplaced Pages, as you did at Alexander Graham Bell, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Begoon  01:38, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at VY Canis Majoris. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Misplaced Pages this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Misplaced Pages is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you.

Constructive contributions are appreciated and strongly encouraged, but your recent edit to the userpage of another user may be considered vandalism. Specifically, your edit to User:Dennis Bratland may be offensive or unwelcome. In general, it is considered polite to avoid substantially editing others' userpages without their permission. Instead, please bring the matter to their talk page and let them edit their user page themselves if they agree on a need to do so. Please refer to Misplaced Pages:User page for more information on User page etiquette. Thank you. Dennis Bratland (talk) 16:32, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at VY Canis Majoris shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring. Thank you.

Request reason:

If you looked at my edit, it was constructive. The two users (Possibly one person with multiple accounts) who continued to revert it were just being disruptive. Tarlneustaedter also reverted my edit 3 times despite it not being disruptive in any way, if you scan his contributions page he never contributes to Misplaced Pages, only removes edits even if they're not a clear case of vandalism. Atotalstranger (talk) 19:25, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

Decline reason:

"My edit was constructive" is not one of the few exemptions listed at WP:3RR. You will need to demonstrate that you understand why you were blocked and explain how you would act differently should the situation arise again in order for an unblock to be considered. You are responsible for your actions on Misplaced Pages, and blaming others in an unblock request rarely ends well. Please read the Guide to Appealing Blocks for further advice. Jezebel'sPonyo 20:01, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Istanbul

Please stop making test edits to Misplaced Pages. It is considered vandalism, which, under Misplaced Pages policy, can lead to being blocked from editing. If you would like to experiment again, please use your sandbox. Please do not make changes without discussion and consensus. Thank you. Subtropical-man (talk) 17:04, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Blocked

I asked - discuss and consensus, did not help. If you make one revert, your account will be reported to block with an expiry time of indefinite, reasons: edit-warring (recidivism) with only ~80 editions (almost zero essential contributions to Misplaced Pages), controversial edits, blanked pages, account created for vandalism. Please stop. Subtropical-man (talk) 17:48, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

I left you a message clearing the misunderstanding and you still write that on my talk page? Go fuck yourself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Atotalstranger (talk • contribs) 17:56, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
