Hello, I'm Binksternet. Misplaced Pages is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Feminism seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. 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. Binksternet (talk) 18:09, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to the encyclopedia! In case you are not already aware, an article to which you have recently contributed, Men's rights movement, is on article probation. A detailed description of the terms of article probation may be found at Talk:Men's rights movement/Article probation. Also note that the terms of some article probations extend to related articles and their associated talk pages.

The above is a templated message. Please accept it as a routine friendly notice, not as a claim that there is necessarily any problem with your edits. Thank you. -- SarekOfVulcan (talk) 22:22, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

Talk quote template

Helpful tip: Use {{tq}} when quoting others on a talk page. For example:

• {{tq|I really love Chipotle burritos}}

will appears as

• I really love Chipotle burritos

Using this template makes it much easier to address specific statements by other users. Thought you might find it helpful. Cheers. EvergreenFir (talk) Please {{re}} 22:38, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

This is a standard informational post created by (I assume) a bot because I have edited a page. This is not any accusation that my edit was or was not proper, and is not a review of the content of my edits. This post will remain here for historical purposes.

This is not created by a bot, but by the user that signed it (SlimVirgin). While it's not a direct accusation that your editing has crossed a line, it is a warning that that line is much more rigidly patrolled in this particular area and that crossing it is likely to result in immediate difficulties for you, not just a warning. Mind how you go. GoldenRing (talk) 02:53, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
