{{subst:uw-canvass|Article}} It appears that you have beencanvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice of users' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote—in order to influenceArticle. Whilefriendly notices are allowed, they should belimited andnonpartisan in distribution and should reflect aneutral point of view.

{{subst:uw-copyright|Article}}Copyright problem icon Your edit toArticle has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have addedcopyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence ofpermission from the copyright holder. If youare the copyright holder, please readWikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for information on how to contribute your work appropriately. For legal reasons, Wikipedia strictly cannot host copyrighted text or images from print media or digital platforms without anappropriate and verifiable license. Contributions infringing on copyright will be removed. You may use external websites or publications as a source ofinformation, but not as a source ofcontent, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policywill beblocked from editing. SeeWikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information.
{{subst:uw-copyright-image-final|File:Example.jpg}}Stop icon You may beblocked from editing without further warning the next time you upload files in violation ofcopyright, as you did atFile:Example.jpg.
{{subst:uw-copyright-link|Article}}
Stop icon
When adding links to material on external sites, as you did toArticle, please ensure that the external site is notviolating the creator's copyright. Linking to websites that display copyrighted works is acceptable as long as the website's operator has created or licensed the work. Knowingly directing others to a site that violates copyright may be considered contributory infringement. This is particularly relevant when linking to sites such asYouTube orSci-Hub, where due care should be taken to avoid linking to material that violates its creator's copyright. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violatorswill beblocked from editing.

If you believe the linked site isnot violating copyright with respect to the material, then you should do one of the following:

  • If the linked site is the copyright holder, leave a message explaining the details on the articleTalk page;
  • If a note on the linked site credibly claims permission to host the material, or a note on the copyright holder's site grants such permission, leave a note on the articleTalk page with a link to where we can find that note;
  • If you are the copyright holder or the external site administrator, adjust the linked site to indicate permission as above and leave a note on the articleTalk page;

If the material is available on a different site that satisfies one of the above conditions, link to that site instead.

{{subst:uw-copyright-new|Article}}Control copyright icon Hello Template index/User talk namespace! Your additions toArticle have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have addedcopyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in thepublic domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under asuitably free and compatible copyright license—to request such a release, seeWikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to preventcopyright andplagiarism issues. Here are the key points:

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Persistent failure to comply may result in beingblocked from editing. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-copyright-remove|Article}}Stop icon Please do not remove copyright templates from articles, as you did withArticle. Your action has been reverted. Forlegal reasons, we cannot accept non-free text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted, and removing copyright notices will not help your case. You can properly contest the issue atWikipedia:Copyright problems. If you are the owner of the material, you may release the material under theCreative Commons andGFDL licenses, as detailed atWP:IOWN. Alternatively, you are welcome to create a draft in your own words atTalk:Article/Temp. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators and/or removers of the copyright notice templateswill beblocked from editing.
{{subst:uw-corpname|Reason}}Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Template index", may not meet Wikipedia'susername policy because it appears to represent an organisation rather than an individual, seeWP:CORPNAME. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for achange of username by completing the form atSpecial:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simplycreate a new account for editing. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-derogatory|Article}}Do not add slurs, images, symbols, or other content meant toattack, harass, threaten, or disparage certain people or groups based on nationality, race, ethnicity, color, religion, sex, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, or other factors. Such content isnot tolerated by Wikipedia and as such may behidden from public view at any time by an administrator (or in extreme cases,suppressed). Articles or files of which the only purpose is to attack, harass, threaten or disparage certain people or groupsare speedily deleted. If you add hateful, derogatory, or bigoted content again, as you did atArticle, you may beblocked from editing without further notice.
{{subst:uw-ecr|topic|page=Article}}Warning icon Hello, Template index/User talk namespace. As your account is not yetextended confirmed, please note that a recent edit you made toArticle violated theextended confirmed restriction in the following topic area:the Arab–Israeli conflict. This restriction prohibits any edit that overlaps with the topic on any Wikipedia page, including non-article pages and pages that are not primarily related to the topic. However, you may post constructiveedit requests concerning the topic on articletalk pages as an exception. Your account will automatically become extended confirmed once you have been a registered user for at least 30 days and have made more than 500 constructive edits. Until then, please ensure that your edits conform with the restriction. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-efsummary|Article}} Your recent edit to the pageArticle contains anedit summary that appears to have triggered theedit filter. The summary may have contained inappropriate text, such as a highly repetitive character sequence, profanity, gibberish, orall caps. Please use appropriate edit summaries to tell other editors what you did, and feel free to usethe sandbox for any tests you may want to do. If your summary did not contain such text, pleasereport it to the false positives page and remove this message. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-ewsoft|Article}}

Information icon Hi Template index/User talk namespace! I noticed that you've made several edits in order to restore your preferred version ofArticle. The impulse to repeatedly undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure that you're aware of Wikipedia'sedit warring policy. Repeatedly undoing the changes made by other users in a back-and-forth fashion like this is disallowed, even if you feel what you're doing is justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on articletalk pages in order to try to reach aconsensus with the other editors involved. If you are unable to come to an agreement atTalk:Article, please use one of thedispute resolution options that are available in order to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of repeatedly reverting other editors' changes can help you avoid getting drawn into edit wars. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-ew|Article}}Stop iconYou currently appear to be engaged in anedit war, according to the reverts you've made toArticle. This means that you are repeatedly reverting content back to how you think it should be, despite knowing that other editors disagree. Once it is known that there is a disagreement, users are expected tocollaborate with others, avoid editingdisruptively, andtry to reach a consensus – rather than repeatedly reverting the changes made by other users.

Important points to note:

  1. Edit warring isdisruptive behavior – regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not engage in edit warring – even if you believe that you are right.

You need to discuss the disagreement on the article'stalk page and work towards a revision that represents consensus among everyone involved. You can post a request for help at anappropriate noticeboard or seekdispute resolution if discussions reach an impasse. In some cases, it may be appropriate torequest temporary page protection.If you continue to engage in edit warring, you may beblocked from editing.

{{subst:uw-1rr|Article}}Stop icon Your recent editing history atArticle shows that you are currently engaged in anedit war. Anedit war occurs when two or more users begin repeatedly reverting content on a page in a back-and-forth fashion to restore it back to how they think it should be, despite knowing that other editors disagree with their changes. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or undo the edits made by other editors when your changes are reverted. Instead, please use thetalk page to work toward creating a version of the page that representsconsensus among the editors involved. The best practice at this time is tostop editing the page and to discuss the disagreements, issues, and concerns at-hand with the other editors involved in the dispute. Wikipedia provides a page that helps to detailhow this is accomplished. If discussions reach an impasse, you can post a request for help at a relevantnoticeboard, or seekdispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporarypage protection while a discussion to resolve the dispute is ongoing.

Being involved in an edit war can result in beingblocked from editing—especially as the page in question is currently under restrictions from theArbitration Committee, if you violate theone-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than onerevert on a single page with active Arbitration Committee restrictions within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the one-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the one-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

{{subst:uw-3rr|Article}}Stop icon Your recent editing history atArticle shows that you are currently engaged in anedit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing a page's content back to how you believe it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree with your changes. Pleasestop editing the page and use thetalk page to work toward creating a version of the page that representsconsensus among the editors involved. Wikipedia provides a page explaininghow this is accomplished. If discussions reach an impasse, you can request help at a relevantnoticeboard or seekdispute resolution such as athird opinion. In some cases, you may wish to requestpage protection while a discussion to resolve the dispute is ongoing.

If you continue edit warring, you may beblocked from editing Wikipedia—especially if you violate thethree-revert rule, which states that an editormust not perform more than threereverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, or whether it involves the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also, please keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule— if things indicate that you intend to continue reverting content on the page.

{{subst:uw-3rr-alt|Article}} Hello. You appear to be repeatedlyreverting or undoing other editors' contributions atArticle. Please be aware that thethree-revert rule prohibits making more than three reverts on a single page within a 24 hour period. Rather than reverting edits, please consider using the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains aconsensus among editors. Thedispute resolution processes may also help. Excessive reverting may result in theloss of editing privileges.
{{subst:uw-gender|Biography subject|<man/woman>}}Information icon Hello, andwelcome to Wikipedia. Please take a moment to read theManual of Style section on gender identity, in particular:

Refer to any person whose gender might be questioned with the name and gendered words (e.g. pronouns,man/woman/person) that reflect the person'smost recent expressed self-identification as reported in the most recentreliable sources, even if it does not match what is most common in sources.

Biography subject identifies as a <man/woman> and it is policy on Wikipedia to respect that, irrespective of your personal feelings about trans people.

{{subst:uw-hijacking|Article}}Warning icon Please refrain fromhijacking pages, as you did withArticle. Should you believe the subject you were writing about deserves an article, please use theArticle Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version that you can then get feedback on. Please also see Wikipedia'sdisambiguation guideline which indicates how to handle separate subjects with similar names. If you continue to hijack an existing article, you may beblocked from editing. If you have any questions, you are always welcome to ask me onmy talk page. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-hoax|Article}}
Stop icon
Please do not create, maintain or restorehoaxes on Wikipedia, as you did atArticle. If you are interested to know how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements already in Wikipedia – and, if possible, correct them. Pleasedo not disrupt Wikipedia. Continued disruption will be met with sanctions, which could includea block from editing. Feel free to take a look at thefive pillars of Wikipedia to learn more about this project and how you can contribute constructively. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-isu}} Hello, andwelcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Template index", may not meet Wikipedia'susername policy because it implies your account is shared between multiple individuals, which violates our policies. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. If this is a shared account, the individuals intended to use this account should insteadcreate new individual accounts for editing. If this is not a shared account, you may ask for achange of username by completing the form atSpecial:GlobalRenameRequest. Thank you. ~~~~
{{subst:uw-legal|Article}}Stop iconYour recent edits toArticle could give Wikipedia contributors the impression that you may consider legal or other "off-wiki" action against them, or against Wikipedia itself. Please note that making such threats on Wikipedia isstrictly prohibited under Wikipedia's policies onlegal threats andcivility.Users who make such threats may beblocked. If you have a dispute with the content of any page on Wikipedia, please follow the proper channels fordispute resolution, or submit aDMCA request if you believe your copyrighted content is being used improperly. Please be sure to comment on content, not contributors, and where possible make specific suggestions for changes supported byreliable independent sources and focusing especially onverifiable errors of fact. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-login|Article}} Hello, I noticed that you may have recently made edits toArticle while logged out. Please be mindful not to perform controversial edits while logged out, or your account risks beingblocked from editing. Please consider reading up on Wikipedia'spolicy on multiple accounts before editing further. If this was not your intention, please remember to log in when editing. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-lyrics|Article}} Please do not add copyrighted lyrics to articles, as you did to the articleArticle. This is acopyright violation, and goes against Wikipedia'snon-free content policy andgeneral content policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violatorswill beblocked from editing.
{{subst:uw-multipleTAs|Article}}Stop icon Do not use multipletemporary accounts todisrupt Wikipedia, like you did atArticle. Such attempts toavoid detection, circumvent policies orevade blocks or sanctions will not succeed. You are welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia, but your recent edits have beenreverted or removed. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia,you may beblocked from editing without further notice.
{{subst:uw-paraphrase|Article}} Your addition toArticle has been removed or altered, as it appears toclosely paraphrase a copyrighted source.Limited close paraphrasing orquotation is appropriate within reason, so long as the material is clearlyattributed in the text. However, longer paraphrases, especially if they are not attributed to their source, may constitutecopyright violation and/orplagiarism, and are not acceptable on Wikipedia. Such content cannot be hosted here forlegal reasons; please do not post it on any page, even if you plan to fix it later. You may use external websites or printed material as a source ofinformation, but not as a source ofsentences. This part is crucial:say it in your own words.

If you own the copyright to the text, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to modify it — then youmust verify that externally by one of the processes explained atWikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the copyright but have permission from that owner, seeWikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.

Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violatorswill beblocked from editing. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-pinfo|Article}} or
{{subst:uw-out|Article}}
Stop iconDo not add personal information about other contributors to Wikipedia without their explicit permission, as you did atArticle. Wikipedia operates on the principle that every contributor has the right to remaincompletely anonymous. Posting personal information that appears to be about another user is strictly prohibited under Wikipedia'sharassment policy whether or not that information is correct. Wikipedia's policy on this issue is strictly enforced and your edits have beenreverted and/orsuppressed, not least because such information can appear on web searches. Wikipedia's privacy policy is to protect the privacy of every user, includingyou. Persistently adding personal information about other contributorswill result in beingblocked from editing.
{{subst:uw-point|Article}} Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but your recent edits, such as those toArticle, appear to beintentional disruptions designed to illustrate a point. Edits designed for the deliberate purpose of drawing opposition, including making edits you do not agree with or enforcing a rule in a generallyunpopular way, are highlydisruptive and can lead to ablock orban. If you feel that a policy is problematic, the policy's talk page is the proper place to raise your concerns. If you simply disagree with someone's actions in an article, discuss it on the article talk page or, if direct discussion fails, throughdispute resolution. If consensus strongly disagrees with you even after you have made proper efforts, then respect the consensus, rather than trying to sway it with disruptive tactics. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-removedlink|Article}}Information icon Hello, andwelcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove usefullinks from an article, as you did in the articleArticle. If you would like to experiment, please use thesandbox. Thank you.

If you feel that the topic of the article meets ournotability guidelines, please request adeletion review or use arequest for unprotection instead.

Please note that repeated recreation of an article against a consensus to delete is considered disruptive and may get youblocked from editing. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-socialnetwork-strong|Article}}Information icon Please do not continue to use Wikipedia as a social network, as you apparently did atArticle.

{{subst:uw-2redirect|Article}}

Information icon When moving pages, as you did toArticle, please remember to fix anydouble redirects. These can create slow, unpleasant experiences for the reader, waste server resources, and make the navigational structure of the site confusing. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-3o|Article}}icon Thank you for listing your dispute atWikipedia:Third opinion. Your request did not follow theguidelines for listing disputes. These guidelines are in place to ensure that the editor who writes the Third Opinion is not biased, and that they can easily see what the dispute is about.

The description of the dispute should beconcise andneutral, and you shouldsign with the timestamp only. A concise and neutral description means that only thesubject matter of the dispute should be described, and not your (nor anyone else's) views on it. For example, in a dispute aboutreliable sources, do not write"They think this source is unreliable", but rather write"Disagreement about the reliability of a source". Tosign with only the timestamp, and without your username, use five tildes (~~~~~) instead of four.

Your request for a Third Opinion may have been edited by another editor to follow the guidelines - feel free to edit it again if you feel it's necessary. If the dispute is of such a nature that it cannot follow the guidelines, another part of thedispute resolution process may be able to help you.

{{subst:uw-articlesig|Article}}Information icon Hello, and thank you foryour contributions to Wikipedia. I've noticed that you have been adding yoursignature to some of your edits toarticles, such as the edit you made toArticle. This is acommon mistake to make and has probably already been corrected. Please do not sign your edits to article content, as the article'sedit history serves the function of attributing contributions, so you only need to use your signature to make discussions more readable, such as ontalk pages or project pages such as theTeahouse. If you would like further information about distinguishing types of pages, please seeWhat is an article? Again, thank you for contributing, and enjoy your Wikipedia experience! Thank you.
{{subst:uw-articletodraft|Article|Draft}}Information icon Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. A page you recently created,Article, may not conform to some of Wikipedia'sguidelines for new pages, so it has been moved toDraft where you can continue to work on it. Please consider using theArticle Wizard or theArticles for Creation procedure. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read "Your first article". You may also want to read ourintroduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-autobiography|Article}}Information icon Hello, andwelcome to Wikipedia. We appreciateyour contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article about yourself, atArticle. Creating an autobiography isstrongly discouraged – please see ourguideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may bedeleted. If what you have done in life is genuinelynotable and can be verified according to ourpolicy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. If you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia andnot a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see:Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss this with the deleting administrator. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-autocalc|Article}}icon Welcome to Wikipedia. Your recent edit on the pageArticle removed or disrupted a Wikipedia feature which provides an automatic calculation such as an age based on a birth date. Please don't do this as such editsdo not appear to be constructive. Also note that automatically calculated information promotes greater accuracy and reduced maintenance of content thanhard coding such information. For further information on how to properly use auto-calculation templates, please see the appropriate documentation (for example,age calculation templates). If you would like to experiment further, please use thesandbox instead. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-badcat|Article}}Information icon Before adding a category to an article, as you did toArticle, please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia'scategorization guidelines. The category being added must already exist, and must be supported by the article'sverifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-badcsd|Page}}icon I noticed that you taggedPage forspeedy deletion. I have removed the tag from the page because it does not meet the criterion or criteria specified. Please fully readWikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion before tagging pages for speedy deletion. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-badlistentry|Article}}Information icon Hello. Your recent edit toArticle appears to have added a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a listshould have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia'snotability guideline. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-badprodblp|Article}}icon I noticed that you taggedArticle with{{prod blp}} forproposed deletion. I have removed the tag from the article because it does not meet the criteria specified. Theplacement requirements are (a) that subject is living, and (b) that the articlecontains no sources in any form (as references, external links, etc., reliable or otherwise) supporting any statements made about the person in the biography. Please fully readWikipedia:Proposed deletion of biographies of living people before tagging articles for proposed deletion. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-bareurl|Article}}Information icon Hello! Thank you for your efforts to improve Wikipedia, and in particular for adding references, as you did toArticle! However, adding abare URL is not ideal, and exposes the reference tolink rot. It is preferable to use propercitation templates whenciting sources, including details such as title, author, date, and any other information necessary for abibliographic citation. Here's an example of a full citation using the{{cite web}} template to cite a web page:
Lorem ipsum<ref>{{cite web|title=Download the Scanning Software - Windows and Mac|publisher=Canon Inc|work=Ask a Question|date=2022|url=https://support.usa.canon.com/kb/index?page=content&id=ART174839|access-date=2022-04-02}}</ref> dolor sit amet.

which displaysinline in the running text of the article as:

Lorem ipsum[1] dolor sit amet.

and displays underReferences as:

  1. ^Download the Scanning Software - Windows and Mac".Ask a Question. Canon Inc. 2022. Retrieved 2022-04-02.

If you've already added one or more bare URLs to an article, there are tools available to expand them into full citations: try theCiter tool, or in thewikitext editor, try thereFill tool, and in theVisual Editor, thereference dialog can convert some bare urls into a full citation.Once again, thanks for adding references to articles.

{{subst:uw-biog-not|Article}}Information icon Please do not add content which givesundue weight to some statement about a living person, as you did atArticle. On Wikipedia, we take particular care overarticles about living people.

New information, even if referenced, should be added only if noteworthy, relevant and documented in multiplereliable third-party sources. Wikipedia isnot a newspaper and material should not be added if it is only gossip or has little longer-term importance, or if the only sourcing istabloid journalism.

If challenged, theonus is on the editor who adds the content to justify its retention. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-bite|Example}}Information icon I noticed that a message you recently left to Example may have been unduly harsh. Please remembernot to bite the newcomers. If you see others making acommon mistake, consider politely pointing out what they did wrong and showing them how to correct it. It may take some time, but it helps us retain new editors. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-blar|Article}}Information icon Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. A page you created or have recently made significant changes to,Article, may not conform to some of Wikipedia'sguidelines for pages, so it has beenblanked and redirected. Three typical reasons for this are that: (1) the article's subject appears to fail ournotability guidelines; (2) the article isunsourced; or (3) the sources used in the article areunreliable. Thepage's history is preserved and it is possible to restore the article: If you believe that this page should remain included on Wikipedia or that this action was taken in error, then you mayrevert the edit that blanked and redirected the page.

{{subst:uw-blog|Article}}Information icon Hello, andwelcome to Wikipedia. While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is anencyclopedia and not a place forblogging orpromotion.

{{subst:uw-circular|Article}} Hello. I wanted to let you know that your recent edit(s) toArticle have been removed because the citation you added was to another Wikipedia article or an externalwiki. As discussed at our policies oncircular sourcing andself-published sources, Wikipedia and other wikis should not be used in citations because they are not consideredreliable sources. You are welcome to re-add the information using a better reference, perhaps from the article you originally cited.

{{subst:uw-citevar|Article}}Information icon Hello. I noticed a recent edit of yours where you added or updated a citation to the pageArticle. Thank you so much for your contributions, especially in the area ofcitations; this is very important for maintaining theverifiability of the encyclopedia.

One thing I noticed, though, was that this citation has a differentcitation style than the other ones in that article. As a general rule, editors should not attempt to change an article's established citation style without first seekingconsensus for the change on the article talk page. For further details, please see§ Variation in citation methods. If you need help matching your citation to the citation style of the article, feel free to reply below, ask me onmy talk page, or visit thehelp desk. Thank you.

Wewelcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or thingsyou have written about on the pageArticle, you may have aconflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See theconflict of interest guideline andFAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you arerequired by theWikimedia Foundation'sterms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. SeeWikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-columns|Article}}Information icon Please do not remove column formatting from pages on Wikipedia, as you did toArticle, without giving a valid reason for the removal in theedit summary. The formatting is there to help readers comprehend articles more easily and make articles consistent across Wikipedia. Your removal of this formatting does not appear constructive, and has beenreverted. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-copying|Article|to=Article2}}Information icon Thank you foryour contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved content fromArticle intoArticle2. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content (here or elsewhere),Wikipedia's licensing requires that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s).
When copying within Wikipedia, at a minimum, give attribution in anedit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying andlinking 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.
Please add attribution if no one has done so yet. If you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons atWikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-copying-nosource|Article copied to}}Information icon Thank you foryour contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved content fromArticle copied to into another page.

{{subst:uw-copyright-img|Image}}Information icon Hello, I'm137a. The imageImage that you uploaded appears to becopyrighted content borrowed from another website. Wikipedia takescopyright very seriously: if you are the copyright holder and would like to use this image on Wikipedia, please follow the instructions given atWP:DONATEIMAGE. This will start the process to get anVRTS ticket in place on the item proving that Wikipedia has permission to use it. The image should beuploaded to Commons, not directly to Wikipedia. If you haven't created an account here, you will need tocreate one on Commons. This may sound complex, but hopefully if you take it step by step it will go smoothly. If you have any questions, you can leave a message onmy talk page. Thanks!
{{subst:uw-c&pmove|Article|to=Article2}}Information icon Hi, and thank you foryour contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to change the title ofArticle by cutting its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, intoArticle2. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits thepage history, which islegally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to bemoved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account isfour days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the"Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may behidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates aredirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions atrequested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them atWikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-cryptic-filename|File:Example.jpg}}Information icon Hello, I'm137a. I would like to let you know that a file you created or significantly contributed to,File:Example.jpg, wasn't properly named. Files that aren't properly named are hard to track and may make it hard for other editors to know about the context of the image. It is suggested that, the next time you upload a file,give it a clear and descriptive name. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at thehelp desk. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-crystal|Article}}Information icon Thank you for your contributions. One ofyour recent contributions toArticle has been reverted or removed, because it containsspeculative or unconfirmed information about a future event. Please only add material about future events if it isverifiable, based on areliable source.
{{subst:uw-csd|Article}}Information icon Hi, Template index/User talk namespace. Thanks for patrolling new pages. I've declined your deletion request forArticle, a page that you tagged forspeedy deletion, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. Please take a moment to read the newtutorial for patrollers,criteria for speedy deletion, and particularly, the section coveringnon-criteria. Such pages are best tagged withproposed deletion orproposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriatedeletion discussion. Thanks!
{{subst:uw-dab|Dab-page}}Information icon Thank you for your edit to thedisambiguation pageDab-page. However, please note that disambiguation pages are not articles; rather, they are meant to help readers find a specific article quickly and easily. From thedisambiguation dos and don'ts, you should:
  • Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
  • Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
  • Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry
    • Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
  • Do notpipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
  • Do not insertexternal links orreferences

Thank you.

{{subst:uw-date|Article}}Information icon Please don't change the format of dates, as you did toArticle. As a general rule, if an article has evolved using predominantly one format, the dates should be left in the format they were originally written in, unless there are reasons for changing it based onstrongnational ties to the topic. Please also note that Wikipedia does not use ordinal suffixes (e.g., st, nd, th), articles, or leading zeros on dates.

For more information about how dates should be written on Wikipedia, please seethis page.

If you have any questions about this, ask me on my talk page, or place{{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Enjoy your time on Wikipedia. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-dated|Article}}icon Welcome to Wikipedia. Your recent edit on the pageArticle introduced content which willsoon become dated. Please do not do this as such content will become invalid over time, and merely becomes a maintenance burden to the project. For example, a statement written in thefuture tense will be invalid once the event has occurred. Likewise, a specific age of aliving person will become invalid on that person's next birthday - if there is a need to add such content, useautomatic age calculation templates instead. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-deadlink|Article}}Information icon Hello, and thank you for your efforts to improve Wikipedia! However, you should know that it is not a good idea to remove citations or information sourced through citations simply because a link to a source is not working, as you did toArticle. Dead links should not be deleted. Instead, pleaserepair or replace the link, if possible, and ensure properly sourced information is retained. Often, a live substitute link can be found. Links not used as references, notes or citations are not as important, such as those listed in the "External links" or "Further reading" sections, but bad links in those sections should also be fixed if possible. Please take a look at thewelcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-directcat|Article}}Information icon Greetings! It appears that you have been directly adding stub categories to articles such asArticle. Stub categories should only be added by templates, as explained atWikipedia:Stub. These templates automatically add any relevant stub categories. Adding the category directly creates problems if there is a need at some later date to change stub category names or to split stub categories. Using stub templates is also recommended as they add prompting messages to editors reading stub articles. Your work in sorting these stub articles is very useful, but it would be even more useful and greatly appreciated if you could use stub templates to do so! Thank you.(This message is a boilerplate, left here as a courtesy byWikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting, and should not be considered personal in nature.)
{{subst:uw-displaytitle|Article}}Information icon Hi, and thank you foryour contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to giveArticle a different title by usingthe DISPLAYTITLE magic word. This functionality is for changing the formatting and presentation of the title only, and does not work to change a page's title to something meaningfully different. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to bemoved to a new title.

In most cases, once your account isfour days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the"Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may behidden in a dropdown menu for you). If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions atrequested moves to have it moved by someone else. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-draftfirst|Article}}
Under construction icon
Thank you for your recent contributions, such asArticle. Getting started on Wikipedia and creating new articles can be tricky; you might like to try creating a draft of your article in the Wikipediadraftspace or withinyour userspace first. Creating a draft allows you the time and space to fix any issues, make updates, and add or expand content, and with less risk of having things deleted. You can even ask for feedback on your work if you need help. Make sure that you read through the Wikipedia help pages available to you, includingYour First Article and theTutorial. You might also like to try using theArticle Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-draftfirst-empty|Article}}
Under construction icon
Thank you for your recent contributions, such asArticle. I noticed that you recently had one or more articles tagged for speedy deletion under criteriaA1 orA3, because they didn't containsubstantiative content. To avoid this in the future, you might want to consider creating the article indraftspace oryour userspace first, which you can then ask for feedback on if necessary; this will give you more time to work on your article as pages created in this manner cannot be deleted for lacking content. Do make sure you also read help available to you, includingYour First Article and theTutorial. You might also like to try theArticle Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version. Thank you.

Under construction icon
Thank you for your recent contributions, such asArticle. I noticed that you recently had one or more articles tagged for speedy deletion under criteriaA7 orA9, because it didn't clearly indicate why the subject wasnotable enough to be included in an encyclopedia. To avoid this in the future, you might want to consider creating the article indraftspace oryour userspace first, which you can then ask for feedback on if necessary; this will give you more time to work on your article as pages created in this manner cannot be deleted for failing to demonstrate notability. Do make sure you also read help available to you, including oursubject-specific notability guidelines,Your First Article and theTutorial. You might also like to try theArticle Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-draftmoved|Page}}Information icon Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on toPage.

When you were adding content to the page, you addedduplicate arguments to a template which can cause issues with how the template is rendered. In the future, please use thepreview button before you save your edit; this helps you find these errors as they will display in yellow at the top of the page. Thanks.
{{subst:uw-editsummary|Article}}Information icon Hello. Thank you foryour contributions toWikipedia. I noticed that your recent edit toArticle did not have anedit summary. Collaboration among editors is fundamental to Wikipedia, and every edit should beexplained by a clear edit summary, or by discussion on thetalk page. Please use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit and/or to describe what it changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may bequite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Edit summary(Briefly describe your changes)

or in the visual editor:

Edit summary(Briefly describe your changes)

Describe what you changed

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. When logged in to yourWikipedia account, you can give yourself a reminder by settingPreferences →Editing →TickPrompt me when entering a blank edit summary (or the default undo summary), and then click the "Save" button.Thanks!

{{subst:uw-elinbody|Article}}Information icon Hello, I'm137a. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the main body of an article. Generally, any relevant external links should be listed in an "External links" section at the end of the article and meet theexternal links guidelines. Links within the body of an article should beinternal wikilinks. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message onmy talk page. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-english|Article}}Information icon I noticed that you have communicated with other editors to the pageArticle in a language other than English. At the English-language Wikipedia, we try to use English for all comments and edit summaries. Posting all comments in English makes it easier for other editors to join the conversation and help you. If you cannot avoid using another language, then please provide a translation into English, if you can. If you cannot provide a translation, please go tothe list of Wikipedias, look in the list for a Wikipedia that is in your language, and edit there instead of here. For more details, seeWikipedia:Talk page guidelines. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-filename|Article}}Information icon Please do not change the name of files in articles as you did toArticle. It breaks the link to the file. I have corrected the mistake. In the future, please use thepreview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging uprecent changes and thepage history. Below the edit box is aShow preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.
The "Show preview" button is right next to the "Publish changes" button and below theedit summary field.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask onmy talk page, or to post at thehelp desk for assistance.Thank you.

{{subst:uw-firstname|Article}}icon Your recent edit on the pageArticle inappropriately referred to a person by a first name or an honorific prefix, contrary toWikipedia's Manual of Style regarding biographies. Normally, after the first mention of a subject's full name in the lead, the subject's first name should not normally be used again, except in special cases such as usage in quotations and titles, or as allowed by the Manual of Style. If you would like to experiment further, please use thesandbox instead. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-flag|File}}Welcome to Wikipedia.

{{subst:uw-fuir|File}}icon An image or media file, File, has been removed from your user page, user talk page, or other page because it is licensed asnon-free. Wikipedia'snon-free content policy states:
Copyrighted images under fair use are only allowed to be used in articles about the subject of the image. For example they are not allowed to be used onuser pages, in lists, or (typically) in biographies of living people.

As a result, although users are often given a great amount of latitude in the type of content that is allowed on their user pages, it is requested that you abide by this policy and refrain from including non-free images on your user pages. Feel free, however, to add images and media files licensed under other terms. For more information, seeWikipedia's non-free content policy and anaccompanying essay on the removal of non-free images.

{{subst:uw-grammar|Article}}Information icon Hello Template index/User talk namespace. I appreciate your efforts to improve the articleArticle, but some of your edits have been reverted or corrected, in part because your use of English was grammatically incorrect. If you speak a different language more fluently or require assistance, please feel free to ask for help with your proposed edits on the article'stalk page.

{{subst:uw-hasty|Article}}1|==Speedy deletion nomination ofArticle==}}

Information icon Hello Template index/User talk namespace. Thanks for patrolling new pages – it's a very important task! I'm just letting you know, however, thatthere is consensus that we shouldn't tag pages as lacking context (CSD A1) and/or content (CSD A3) moments after they are created, as you did atArticle. It's usually best to waitat least 60 minutes for more content to be added if the page is very short, and the articles shouldnot be marked aspatrolled. Tagging such pages in a very short space of time maydrive away well-meaning contributors, which is not good for Wikipedia. Attack pages (G10), patent nonsense (G1), copyright violations (G12) and pure vandalism/blatant hoaxes (G3) should of course still be tagged and deleted immediately. Thanks.

{{subst:uw-imdb|Article}}

Hello. I wanted to let you know that your recent edit(s) toArticle have been removed because you cited the information you added toIMDb. As discussed atWP:RS/IMDb, IMDb is considered a questionable source, and generally should not be used as a sole reference. You are welcome to re-add the information using a different reliable source, or with an additional source confirming the information from IMDb. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on [[User_talk:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}|my talk page]]. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-incompleteAFD|Article}}Information icon Hello. I noticed that you attempted to file adeletion discussion on the articleArticle but did not complete the process. Please note that, when listing an article for deletion, a discussion page needs to be made for other users to discuss whether to keep or delete the article. This is typically done by following the steps listedhere. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-infobox|Article}}Information icon Hello, I'm137a. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more ofyour recent contributions to the pageArticle because you appear to have made an unexplained change to information inside an infobox, which doesn't reflect or contradicts facts contained within the article's body. Theinfobox is meant to summarize the key facts already present in the article itself. If you believe the information was correct, pleasecite a reliable source when making the change or discuss your change on the article's talk page. You can also find the information in the main written body of the article and change it there; make sure you cite the source there too. Have a look at thetutorial on citing sources if you need help with this. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use thesandbox instead, and if you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message onmy talk page. Thanks!
{{subst:uw-islamhon|Article}}Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively, please note that people of many different faiths read Wikipedia articles. For this reason, there is aguideline about Islamic honorifics in theManual of Style that should be followed to maintain aneutral point of view and consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style by adding honorifics, as you did inArticle, disturbs uniformity among articles and should only be done with a special reason. Please take a look at thewelcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-italicize|Article}}Information icon Hello. I just wanted to let you know that when you add the title of a book, film, album, magazine, or TV series to an article, as you did toArticle, it should beitalicized by adding two single apostrophes ('') on both sides. Titles of television episodes, short stories and songs should be placed within quotation marks. More detail can be found in theWikipedia Manual of Style. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-lang|Article}}Information icon Hello. In a recent edit to the pageArticle, 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 torespect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), useBritish English. For something related to the United States in the same way, useAmerican English. For something related to anotherEnglish-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 thefirst 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 theManual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me onmy talk page or visit thehelp desk. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-linking|Article}}Information icon Thank you foryour contributions to Wikipedia.

{{subst:uw-llmtalk|Article}}Information icon Hello, I'm137a. A comment that you recently made atArticle seemed to be generated using alarge language model (an "AI chatbot" or other application using such technology). Editors should not use LLMs to write comments generatively.

{{subst:uw-medrs|Article|Example}}

Information icon Hi Template index/User talk namespace, I'm137a. Thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently made additions to several articles such asArticle andExample without citing a reliable source. Please note that all content and edits on Wikipedia are expected to be verifiable inreliable sources. In articles related to medical topics, the standard for content and sourcing is defined atWP:MEDRS, and in your edit you did not include any references that meet that ideal. Please have a look atMEDRS to learn about the quality standards for medical sourcing. You might also want to take a look atWikiProject Medicine. If you have any questions related to sourcing of medical issues, you can ask at theWikiProject Medicine Talk page. For general questions about sourcing, seeWikipedia:Reliable sources. ~~~~

Looking atyour recent contributions toArticle, it appears you have been memorializing a deceased friend or relative. I'm deeply sorry for your loss, and my condolences are with you.

{{subst:uw-mergerationale|Article|Article2}}Information icon Hello Template index/User talk namespace and thank you for proposing an article merger betweenArticle andArticle2.

{{subst:uw-minor|Article}}Information icon Hi Template index/User talk namespace! I noticed that you recently made an edit atArticle and marked it as "minor", but it may not have been. On Wikipedia, "minor edit" refers only to superficial edits that could never be disputed, such as fixingtypos or reverting obviousvandalism. Any edit that changes themeaning of an article is not minor, even if it only concerns a single word. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-mostm|Article}}icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Please note that ourmanual of style states thattrademarks should be formatted within articles in a manner that reflects standard English capitalization and formatting rules, and are the most common formatting of the mark used byreliable secondary sources independent of the article subject (as opposed to those dictated by the trademark holder). Examples of non-standard formatting include unusual capitalisation (such as letters being capitalized if they are not an acronym or otherwise pronounced individually), special characters (includingtrademark symbols and other irregular characters), and unpronounced punctuation. Deviating from this style, as you did inArticle, disturbs uniformity among articles, and may make the article appearpromotional.

If you have any questions about this, ask me on my talk page, or place{{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Enjoy your time on Wikipedia. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-nc|Article}}Information icon Thank you foryour contributions. Please note that there are severalconventions regarding the naming of Wikipedia articles which you should bear in mind when moving pages such asArticle. First, article names should give priority to what the majority of English speakers would most easily recognize, with a minimum of ambiguity, while at the same time making linking to those articles easy and second nature. Second, names of Wikipedia articles should be optimized for readers over editors, and for a general audience over specialists. There are several specific guidelines regarding naming of pages (by topic, by title characteristic,...) that are listed on our page regarding name conventionsWikipedia:Article titles, and in thecategory of naming conventions. Additionally, technical guidance regarding Wikipedia page names can be found atHelp:Page name. Related guidance regarding what happens when two different names are used to refer to the same topic, or when a single name refers to several meanings that each deserve their own article, can be found atWikipedia:Redirect andWikipedia:Disambiguation. How and when to include a namespace qualifier in a page name is explained inWikipedia:Namespace. Guidance onchanging page names can be found in:Help:Moving a page. If you are not sure whether renaming a page is appropriate or desirable, please consultWikipedia:Requested moves. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

We appreciate this, but unfortunately your edit was not successful in restoring the article to its pre-vandalised state. For future reference, it is better to deal with vandalism by checking the article'spage history to determine how it appeared before it was vandalised.

{{subst:uw-rfcbefore|Page}}Information icon Hello, and thank you for your interest in starting aRequest for Comment atPage. Before opening an RfC, please take a moment to review therecommended preparation steps. Doing so helps your RfC attract more constructive participation, avoids it being closed prematurely, and helps conserve our most precious resource: volunteer editor time.

Before starting an RfC, try just having a normal discussion on the article Talk page first. You may reach aconsensus, and have no need for an RfC. If that doesn't work, other methods ofdispute resolution are available:

  • if just two of you are in discussion, try asking for aThird opinion;
  • you can alsonotify other editors who have worked on the page or topic previously, as well as relevantWikiProjects;
  • design your RfC question to be clear, brief,neutral, and focused; asking for feedback on your RfC question before launching the RfC is a great way to go, especially if it is your first time.

Following these steps will give your RfC the best chance of success and help the community reach consensus more smoothly. Thanks for helping to keep discussions efficient and productive.

{{subst:uw-rfcn|Example}} Thank you for making a report aboutExample (talk ·contribs) atWikipedia:Requests for comment/User names.

{{subst:uw-translation|fromArticle}}Information icon Thank you foryour contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you translated text fromfromArticle to another page. While you are welcome to translate Wikipedia content, here or elsewhere,Wikipedia's licensingrequires that you provide attribution to the contributor(s) of the original article. When translating from a foreign-language Wikipedia article, this is supplied at a minimum in anedit summary on the page where you add translated content, identifying it as a translation andlinking it to the source page. Sample wording for this is givenhere. If you forgot, or were not aware of this requirement, attributionmust be given retroactively, for example:
NOTE: Content in the edit of 01:25, January 25, 2023 was translated from the existing French Wikipedia article at [[:fr:Exact name of French article]]; see its history for attribution.

Retroactive attribution may be added using adummy edit; seeRepairing insufficient attribution.It is good practice, especially if translation is extensive, to also place a properly formatted{{translated page}} template on the talk page of the destination article. If you have added translated content previously which was not attributed at the time it was added, you mustadd attribution retrospectively, even if it was a long time ago. You can read more about author attribution and the reasons for it atWikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you.

{{subst:uw-uaa|User}}Information icon Thank you for making a report aboutUser (talk ·contribs) atWikipedia:Usernames for administrator attention (UAA). However, it appears that the editor you reported may not have had an inappropriate username, or the username was not inappropriate enough to warrant an immediate block. UAA is forusername policy violations that are serious enough to warrant an immediate block. General username policy violations should first be discussed with the user on their talk page. A helpful template to do just that is{{subst:Uw-username}}. Note that ausername request for comment can be filed if the user disagrees that their name is against theusername policy, or has continued to editafter you have expressed your concern. You may find theUAA instructions helpful, and I'd recommend reading them over prior to making future reports to UAA. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-unattribcc|Article}}Information icon Thank you foryour contributions. It seems that you have addedCreative Commons licensed text to one or more Wikipedia articles, such asUser. You are welcome to import appropriate Creative Commons licensed content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipediaguideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied.
