Tildes

You said "(I don't know how to type tildes) // sussmanbern@hotmail.com 4/20/08 ====" on Talk:Puttin' on the Ritz. You add them by typing shift and "`" at the same time on most keyboards. Or just copy/paste the four tildes above. Or click on the four tildes below the edit box where it says Sign your username. —Ben FrantzDale (talk) 11:33, 24 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

September 2011

Welcome to Wikipedia! I am glad to see you are interested in discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Talk:Deadwood (TV series) are for discussion related to improving the article, not general discussion about the topic. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you.

Punctuation

Thank you for your contributions to Kol Nidre and other articles. Please be aware of the punctuation rules in WP:REFPUNC. I corrected a number of errors in Kol Nidre (with explanation in the edit summary), only to find you had soon put them back in. Punctuation should immediately precede <ref>s.

I am very sorry to hear about your loss of text, but I don't see how it could have any connection with my simple edit. What I did (here) changed no wording and involved no Hebrew characters. I hope everything is back on track. Please rest assured your hard work and diligence are appreciated. Hertz1888 (talk) 07:12, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced edits to Natural-born-citizen clause of the U.S. Constitution

Hello! Welcome to Wikipedia. Some of your edits have been reversed by another editor. Please reference your claims on articles with sources formatted as inline citations. Do not synthesize material from original research and be sure your sources are within the Wikipedia standards for relaible sources.--Amadscientist (talk) 01:33, 23 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for helping

I have edited your good faith contribution as an illustration of the proper way to cite a book reference. Inline citations are the accepted format at wikipedia. These can be used for books, journals and websites. If you have questions feel free to ask at my talk page or if you would like you may use the "Cheet sheet" on my page for more inline citation formatting! Thanks.--Amadscientist (talk) 05:23, 23 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Paragraph format

Please note that Wikipedia uses block paragraphs, not indented paragraphs. This is so even when quoting a source that uses indented paragraphs. See WP:MOS#Allowable typographical changes. I believe if you look at any well-edited printed source or any printed style manual you will see that the indenting of paragraphs follows the house style of the publication where the source is quoted, not the style used in the original publication from which the quote is taken.

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic.

Talk:Barack Obama presidential eligibility litigation

I moved a couple misplaced comments of yours down to their correct chronological place on that talk page, giving them separate topic headings. I think this will increase the chance of anyone responding to your question at Talk:Barack Obama presidential eligibility litigation#Should I add Westlaw, LexisNexis, etc. citations? --83.255.58.232 (talk) 13:03, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for July 20

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Haftarah, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lamentations. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

ANI notice

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Alephb (talk) 02:52, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ownership

You appear to have announced your ownership of the article List of Bible verses not included in modern translations when you told User:Alephb on their talk page "PLEASE DO NOT TAMPER WITH MY WRITING WHILE I AM WRITING IT!" [1] and posted on the article itself "WORK IN PROGRESS. PLEASE DO NOT ERASE OR OTHERWISE INTERFERE UNTIL FEB, 15th 2018".

Please be aware that no editor can own an article, and that you cannot insist that other editors do not change your edits. We do have a template {{In use}} which displays at the top of the page

"This article is actively undergoing a major edit for a short while. To help avoid edit conflicts, please do not edit this page while this message is displayed", however, other editors can remove the template if you haven't edited the article for some hours."

There is also the template {{Under construction}}, which displays

"This page or section is in the process of an expansion or major restructuring. You are welcome to assist in its construction by editing it as well. If this template page has not been edited in several days, please remove this template. If you are the editor who added this template and you are actively editing, please be sure to replace this template with {{in use}} during the active editing session."

Neither of these templates allow you to "take over" an article and exclude others from editing it, they merely act as a means to help coordinate editing.

Further, your announced methodology of adding material without sources, and then adding the sources later, is sub-optimal. Wikipedia policy is clear that material which is unreferenced is potentially subject to immediate deletion. You are much better off adding sources as you go, rather than splitting the task in such a way that your material can possibly be deleted.

Wikipedia is a collaborative project, and editors who do not learn how to collaborate are regularly blocked from editing, some of them indefinitely, due to not having shown their ability to work harmoniously with other editors. Please keep this in mind, and work harder to cooperate with Alephb, and other interested editors, on the improvement of the article which it appears you both care about.

Thanks, Beyond My Ken (talk) 06:01, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then submit a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 01:25, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
