  Hello, I'm Oshwah. An edit you recently made to Jeremy McConnell seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to 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. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 07:08, 28 February 2016 (UTC) Hi please update his full name which is:Reply

Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FiveStarCoCo (talkcontribs) 07:11, 28 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making nonconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Jeremy McConnell with this edit. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 07:14, 28 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your recent footy player edits

edit

Hi there, thanks for trying to help out with improving some articles, but please only make meaningful edits. Adding excessive detail like South Australia, Australia or Football Club to every club mention isn't useful. Especially in the infobox, which is meant to be a brief snapshot of their career, not the complete detailed coverage. Have a look at your edits which have been reverted by me and other editors, and try to edit more constructively in future. Cheers, The-Pope (talk) 03:32, 31 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Ozzy Osbourne. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Mlpearc (open channel) 18:24, 5 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Ozzy Osbourne. Robvanvee 13:12, 6 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for persistent disruptive editing. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Coffee // have a cup // beans // 15:29, 6 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

  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 →   Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! 220 of Borg 03:06, 24 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at User talk:FiveStarCoCo, 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. 220 of Borg 03:08, 24 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Usher (musician) into Tameka Foster. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 17:48, 6 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Glenn Maxwell, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Victoria (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
