Please stop making disruptive edits.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Please read MOS:TV to see what is acceptable to include on List of episode articles. Series cast and crew is not such content to be featured. Favre1fan93 (talk) 20:42, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, you may be a new editor so I wanted to reach out and offer my assistance. I know it can be frustrating when you work hard on contributions and they are changed or undone. Though much of the material you introduced to "list of episode articles" was not appropriate content for those, I did not want you to be discouraged. Also, you have obviously done significant research and there are perhaps other places some of this information can be incorporated, and I'd be happy to help you troubleshoot that. Thanks! — TAnthonyTalk 14:49, 21 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Though appreciate your opening a discussion at each of the list articles at which your contributions have been challenged, your restoring of this out-of-scope and in some cases badly-formatted information without further discussion and consensus is inappropriate. I'm waiting for Favre1fan93 to come back online before reverting everything and possible taking this to WP:ANI, but please leave at least List of Dynasty episodes alone for now, as I made incremental changes after the initial revert.— TAnthonyTalk 15:23, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 13:27, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

[edit]

Information icon Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:82.4.178.56 reported by User:TAnthony (Result: ). Thank you. — TAnthonyTalk 15:32, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Zombi 2. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.
You have already been directed towards the WP:Bold, revert, discuss page for an overview on how consensus works here. Rather than needlessly reverting an unwanted change, use the talk page for the article to discuss why you feel any changes are necessary. GRAPPLE X 17:27, 7 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Since you seem to be unwilling to commence a discussion on anything contentious, I have done it for you. Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Film#MOS:SURNAME should allow you to give your opinion on why we should use forenames as an exception. GRAPPLE X 22:30, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I see you're still avoiding discussion. What is "contentious" is that your change has been disputed. What is being "forced" is that you're repeatedly reverting it back without discussing it. There is a link scant lines above this to a discussion where you're welcome to comment rather than edit warring. GRAPPLE X 23:24, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing to discuss. The idea of an over-earnest discussion of whether to refer to fictional characters in an Italian zombie horror film by given names or surnames, as if this is of earth-shattering importance, is faintly ludicrous. 82.4.178.56 (talk)



Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at List of Blake's 7 episodes. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. -- AlexTW 13:03, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Alex the Whovian - please do not send pompous messages in which you mistake good faith edits/contributions for being "disruptive". I note that you have been warned for such misconduct on the dispute pages. Please take the time to consider your overzealous attitude. 82.4.178.56 (talk)
You completely reverted another editor's edits (mine), reverting the removal of the unnecessary colours and the standardization of implementing the templated series overview. It's not pompous to warn you against this when there was no acceptable reason for it. It seems that you've been warned far more - look at the warnings on this talk page. -- AlexTW 14:56, 16 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The truth is that you reverted a perfectly good and well-presented article for reasons of form rather than content, when there are no exact rules for presentation, mere guidelines. You have taken it upon yourself to act as a self-appointed custodian of supposed guidelines and yes, you have been warned about your conduct. You are being pompous - fact. When you reduce yourself to this kind of banality, there's no further discussion to be had. 82.4.178.56 (talk)
We're not here to make the site look pretty. That's all your edits were form, some of which were even of a deprecated form. Three years here, I wonder if I know what I'm doing. Once you do, you'll realize the issues that you had all along. Happy editing! -- AlexTW 15:55, 16 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Howdy

[edit]

I just wanted to make sure you saw my recent message to you at Talk:List of Dynasty episodes, I don't know how well {{ping}} works with IPs. In any case, no need to respond or acknowledge the message if you prefer not to, but I wanted to be sure you knew I had extended an olive branch and was making myself available to assist you in any way I can. Have a good one!— TAnthonyTalk 14:38, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at List of diagnoses from House (TV series), you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. - theWOLFchild 00:15, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did at List of diagnoses from House (TV series). Note: You are basically vandalizing this article. You have been repeatedly asked to explain your edits on the article talk page. Further disruptive behavior will be reported. Stop removing content without providing a reason. - theWOLFchild 23:32, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

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

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

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:

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 → Tick Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! - theWOLFchild 02:42, 19 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I see that despite the warning posted above by an admin, you have again reverted that same edit, now for the 9th time. Simply posting your opinion in the edit summary is not sufficient, (and is not the reason I placed the 'edit summary' notice above, either). You need to discuss the issue on the talk page before reverting, and either cite a policy or achieve a consensus in support of your edit. I see you have ignored all the numerous other warnings you have received (both here and on your other user talk page) and so I won't bother with any more templates. I will leave this to an administrator to deal with. - theWOLFchild 18:45, 19 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Final warning. Please do not edit war as you've been doing on List of diagnoses from House (TV series) - it's not allowed. If you revert the article again without starting a discussion on the article's talk page, you can be blocked for edit warring. Please take these warnings seriously and follow proper dispute resolution protocol and come to a consensus on the article's talk page. Thank you. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 20:15, 25 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Stop icon with clock
Anonymous users from this IP address have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring, as done at List of diagnoses from House (TV series).
During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 15:05, 26 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion

[edit]

Hello,

I don't mean at all to pile on, but come at this from a new direction. It seems like there have been a number of cases over time where you have been corrected for your approach... perhaps it makes sense to have a fresh start by looking at Wikipedia:Writing better articles, including tone and WP:LEAST. It's a skill to write from an encyclopedic perspective, which can seem dull if you're excited about a topic. This is an encyclopedia, though, not a blog.

In addition, any new content should have citations. There are a couple of tools for that, like WP:ProveIt - where you load the URL and the tool fills out whatever fields it can discern. They you would just have to make a couple of tweaks. If you want any help with any of this once your block is lifted, please let me know. I would be happy to help.–CaroleHenson (talk) 17:34, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
