Hello, I'm DIYeditor. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, StG 44, 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. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. —DIYeditor (talk) 08:41, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You were right, your rate of fire can be confirmed by a source. Do not hesitate to include it by yourself.--Le Petit Chat (talk) 06:53, 4 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

National varieties of English

Hello. In a recent edit, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. Qzd (talk) 01:55, 24 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

On subject about changing one dialect to the other

Alright, I’ll limit my overall edits in a wiki page to only changing it if the majority of it is written in American English but a small anomaly is written in British English for some reason. I also will only change it if it is on a american related wiki page and won’t do a complete overhaul on a british wiki page. Acemaster77 (talk) 02:02, 24 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I see you've been asked to stop this before. Your recent edits to Abraj Al Bait and Black Standard show no indication that you mean to abide these guidelines. Please STOP trying to change predominantly British English articles into American English. Further actions along these lines are disruptive and may lead to temporary blocks. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 18:31, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You have again changed spellings on the 155 mm page from British to US. As has been explained, where an article is not tied to one country then it stays in the original version. That page has used British spellings since it was first created. FerdinandFrog (talk) 01:16, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for March 1

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Surreal humour, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Or (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.)

En:UK to En:US changes breeching WP rules

You've been warned several times over about changing page varieties from en:UK to en:US. The rule is quite clear; it stays at the first variant utilized. Buckshot06 (talk) 07:11, 8 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You are persistently doing this, and seem to edit little else besides. The fact we don't do this has been repeatedly explained to you, but you seem not to be paying attention. Another repeat of this and it will be escalated to WP:ANI, with the intention of seeking either an agreement from you to not do this, a WP:TBAN to specifically enforce that, or simply a WP:BLOCK to just stop you editing altogether.

March 2019

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Self-propelled gun, you may be blocked from editing. You were warned not to keep doing this: [1] Andy Dingley (talk) 10:18, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ANI warning, as promised

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Acemaster77 and ENGVAR. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:26, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for persistently making disruptive edits. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

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 ~~~~}}.

Your repeated violations of WP:ENGVAR are disruptive and you have been warned repeatedly. You promised to change your behavior but instead you persisted. The purpose of this short block is to get your attention and motivate you to change your behavior. Future blocks will be longer if you continue this disruptive behavior. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 18:03, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Just to note that the user made a correct ENGVAR change here, as the article is about an American product. They still may need to be careful, as this change could be read as being POINTy, occurring so soon after a block. - BilCat (talk) 06:32, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. "Aircrafts" is not a word, and you should work on other things than ENGVAR. Changing language variations in articles about Spanish speaking countries is not useful. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 15:30, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

”Aircrafts” is a nonstandard plural form of aircraft, I put an S at the end of it because it sounded awkward to say “United States Military Aircraft” because it sounded like it was talking about a singular object. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Acemaster77 (talk • contribs)

That's not a legitimate reason to use a "nonstandard plural form" in an encyclopedia. If "United States military aircraft" were a singular, it would be written as "a United States military aircraft". At this point, I'm not sure your English grammar skills are what they should be to edit Wikipedia. - BilCat (talk) 19:01, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Fair point, perhaps it’s the wording that makes it awkward to read. Maybe the sentence as a whole should be revised so the transition is more smoother.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Acemaster77 (talk • contribs) 19, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

Afghan victory

I have reverted one of your edits because it seemed to me like an unsourced opinion. I noticed that you are currently blocked from editing so you might not be able to defend your edit that I reverted. If you really think my revert was wrong please reply to me here. Thanks.--SharabSalam (talk) 13:54, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You've made the same edit twice now. The problem (as well as it being unsourced) is that both sides could be described as Afghan, so what does an "Afghan victory" even mean? This change is nonsense. Andy Dingley (talk) 16:08, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
