User talk:38.87.50.131: Difference between revisions

July 2021

Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Arcology, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please review WP:IPCV as well. DonIago (talk) 16:54, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Arcology, you may be blocked from editing. Please review WP:BURDEN, as it is highly inappropriate to tell someone 'if you want a citation, add one yourself'. You're welcome to discuss this at the article's Talk page, but re-adding the material without providing a source when one has been requested is disruptive behavior.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Arcology. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges on that page. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges. Thank you.

Please read WP:BLANKING

Please review WP:BLANKING. Editors have every right to delete notices from their own talk pages as an indication that they have seen and understand the message, and it is inappropriate to reinsert essentially the same message at that point. Thank you for your understanding. DonIago (talk) 00:59, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

On a slightly-related note, I've left a reminder at Talk:Arcology that WP:IPCV requires that third-party citations be provided when 'in popular culture' items are added to articles. You're welcome to discuss this further there, but as noted above, re-adding your item without providing a citation would be considered edit-warring at this point given that you've been asked not to, twice now, and to the best of my knowledge you haven't established a consensus in favor of your edit.
