[edit] December 2004

Thanks for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. --fvw* 18:22, 2004 Dec 29 (UTC)

Please stop adding nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you were just trying to experiment, then use the sandbox instead. Thank you.

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

[edit] May 2005

Hello! I reverted your edit to Thomas Torrance simply because it didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. I think I understand what you were trying to say but am not sure. Perhaps you could return to the page and clarify your thoughts...thanks. KHM03 13:33, 4 May 2005 (UTC)

  • I have the same comment as KHM03 above. I've reverted your edits just because I can't make heads or tails of them. Perhaps we could try to figure out how to phrase it in Talk on the page? Wikibofh 14:29, 4 May 2005 (UTC)

Please don't create articles in order to test editing. We have the Sandbox for that. — Trilobite (Talk) 14:55, 18 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] August 2005

Hi. I've reverted your edits to Killyleagh for the following reasons:

  • This page is not the place for discussion of the merits (or otherwise) of the UK Social Security system.
  • While there may be some of the following; "paramilitaries, thieves, drug dealers, burglars, benefit fraudsters, tax dodgers, drunken bums and every kind of lowlife imaginable." I don't think its fair or acceptable to claim the town is "overrun" with such people. Unfortunately I don't have any data on this, perhaps you will provide some before adding any more such allegations?
  • The police station is located at 36 Downpatrick Road.

Thanks for your time, Mark83 21:11, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Parry Hotter And The Seamy Side Of Magic, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. For more information about Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, take a look at our Five Pillars. Happy editing! (previously unsigned comment by JoanneB, forgot to sign, sorry)

Bosco13- I got that info off Amazon.co.uk so i think the author spread it around a bit. I can't stay long as this is a library computer but my username is bosco13 and my email is boscob10 .at. hotmail .d0t. com

Ok, the problem is though, we cannot accept stuff like that from any website, not from Amazon.co.uk either. --JoanneB 15:24, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] January 2007

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. However, the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. JoeSmack Talk 17:33, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] February 2007

Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please do the following:

  1. Place {{hangon}} on the page. Please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag(s).
  2. Make your case on the article's talk page.

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. --Onorem 17:27, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the work of others.

[edit] July 2007

Please do not delete content from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Twin paradox. Your edits do not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use Wikipedia:Sandbox for test edits. Thank you. Gscshoyru 13:08, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Please stop. If you continue to blank out (or delete portions of) page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did to Twin paradox, you will be blocked from editing. Gscshoyru 13:10, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make any unconstructive edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant warnings.

With regard to your comments on Twin paradox: Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks will lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Angel Of Sadness T/C 13:12, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Hey... look. I actually agree that the introduction is too long. However, you should move the content contained within it elsewhere, and you should not delete most of the content of the page, which was not even mentioned anywhere in talk. Unless, of course, I missed the discussion, in which case, show me please. Gscshoyru 13:14, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Twin paradox. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content which gains a consensus among editors.

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Twin paradox, you will be blocked from editing. You should discuss with those who understand the topic that the facts presented are irrelevant, before simply removing them.If your wondering me or Gscshoyru didn't write the article, we're just trying to prevent vandalism.

[edit] February 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Independent Orange Order do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.  

Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): rule: '\bmyspace\.com' (link(s): http://www.myspace.com/ilol160) . If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, or similar site, then please check the information on the external site thorougly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creators copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! XLinkBot (talk) 12:09, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
