June 2018

Welcome to Misplaced Pages and thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Talk:Tutankhamun are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines, not for general discussion about the topic or unrelated topics, or statements based on your thoughts or feelings. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you. - FlightTime (open channel) 18:33, 16 June 2018 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Misplaced Pages without adequate explanation, as you did at DNA history of Egypt, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. KNHaw 21:31, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Serols. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —specifically this edit to Generations of Noah— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help Desk. Thanks. Serols (talk) 17:22, 24 October 2018 (UTC)

Can you find something constructive to do and not just whine?

You're complaining about images (weirdly in one case, the picture at George Washington Bush is clearly not a white man from India). Find pictures that we can use that are compliant from our license. This one isn't. --Doug Weller talk 08:45, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

March 2019

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages.

When editing Misplaced Pages, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to Ramesses III does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

• User contributions
• Recent changes
• Watchlists
• Revision differences
• IRC channels
• Related changes
• New pages list
• Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! Drmies (talk) 21:48, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

That's wonderful. However, please seize and desist from randomly reverting my posts. If you have a problem, take it to talk page first. 83.84.100.133 (talk) 09:23, 30 March 2019 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Ramesses III 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. See BRD for 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use talk pages for inappropriate discussion, as you did at Talk:Black Athena, you may be blocked from editing. Doug Weller talk 17:06, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Inappropriate discussion? This is what I posted on the Black Athena page:

"Phoenician civilization was considered an extension of the Nile Valley civilizations of Egypt, Sudan and either the Puntland of Somalia or Libya. In Genesis 10, Noah's son Ham (Black or Burnt like charcoal) sons were Cush (Sudan), Misraim (Egypt), Canaan (Phoenicia and Palestine) and Put (the Puntland of Somalia or Libya. Genesis 10 goes on to cement Mesopotamian civilization as an extension Khemet, as Ham's son Cush's son Nimrod (Nubia) goes and builds Babylon and Assyria, whose capital Assur means Ausar or Osiris in Greek. Genesis 10:6 "6 The sons of Ham: Cush, Egypt, Put and Canaan." Genesis 10:8-12 "8 Cush was the father of Nimrod, who became a mighty warrior on the earth. 9 He was a mighty hunter before the Lord; that is why it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the Lord.” 10 The first centers of his kingdom were Babylon, Uruk, Akkad and Kalneh, in Shinar. 11 From that land he went to Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah 12 and Resen, which is between Nineveh and Calah—which is the great city." So in the 1st millennium BC when the Old Testament was written, it was still known that the Sudanese, Egyptians and Canaanites were the sons of Ham, which means Black, like Khem and Khemet. And that's in the bible. Also of course Phoenician writing is based on the oldest alphabet, the Sinaitic alphabet, which is based on Egyptian Hieroglyphs. Phoenician is a Semitic language, and Semitic is related to the other Afro-Asiatic languages which are mainly in East Africa - South, Central and East Cushitic, Omotic, Beja, then Ancient Egyptian, Berber and Chadic/Hausa. 83.84.100.133 (talk) 15:35, 28 June 2019 (UTC) "

Important message

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in pseudoscience and fringe science. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Misplaced Pages's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
