This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding Longevity, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

Re this edit. Despite my best attempts to invite you to discuss this, you have now made this edit three times in rapid succession and so are in breach of WP:3RR. Can you not see that an opening sentence of "Ottis Dewey "Slim" Whitman (January 20, 1923 – June 19, 2013), born as Otis Dewey Whitman, was .." has unnecessary repetition, made worse by the emboldening? The original version "Slim Whitman (January 20, 1923 – June 19, 2013), born as Otis Dewey Whitman Jr, was .." was a stable version agreed by consensus. Would you kindly discuss your proposed version at the Talk:Slim Whitman? Martinevans123 (talk) 15:47, 6 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Hello, and thank you for your recent contribution. I appreciate the effort you made for our project, but unfortunately I had to undo your edit because I believe the article was better before you made that change.

Recent edit to Waiter.com

[edit]

Information iconPlease refrain from making edits involving personal observations, and making edits to paragraphs using faulty grammar. I had to undo several edits to the page because of poor formatting and bad grammar, as well as disrupting the information already present. Refrain from making any further edits until you can brush up on English grammar. Kaylahawk (talk) 23:17, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Wilf Carter (musician), but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 09:08, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
