None of the IPs you listed are currently editing.GiantSnowman20:48, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in anedit war. Users are expected tocollaborate with others, to avoid editingdisruptively, and totry to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware thatWikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article'stalk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that representsconsensus among editors. You can post a request for help at anappropriate noticeboard or seekdispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporarypage protection. If you engage in an edit war, youmay beblocked from editing.20:52, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Some latitude is allowed as we are humans, not robots. For newbies, "Hi, I'm Bob" is a plausible first edit and we definitely don't want toWP:BITE them for that. For veteran editors, there's likely some minor chit-chat going on on their talk page or in the archives. As for warnings, they're not badges of shame. Any competent admin will check talk page history and most recent change patrollers will do the same. --NeilN^{talk to me}21:14, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is about your post toWP:AN. I was about to close that, but someone else got there first. Please readWP:BRD which explains how to deal with a disagreement about content: in brief, discuss it on the article talk page, and try to reachWP:Consensus. If you can't reach consensus, seeWP:Dispute resolution. Admins have no special authority about content: the "drama-boards"WP:AN (or preferablyWP:ANI for an individual incident rather than a policy question) are the last resort for intractable disputes, not the first place to go.

Hello. Your account has been granted the "pending changes reviewer" userright, allowing you toreview other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes. The list of articles awaiting review is located atSpecial:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on is located atSpecial:StablePages.

Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

Hello andwelcome to Wikipedia. When you add content totalk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure tosign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add fourtildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

This article must adhere to the biographies of living persons policy, even if it is not a biography, because it contains material about living persons. Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous. If such material is repeatedly inserted, or if you have other concerns, please report the issue to this noticeboard.

With this in mind it would be good to let sleeping dogs lie as teh Mirror has been proven to lie using illegal phone tapping so who is to say that the supposed interview is actually legitimate. this is why the section keeps getting removed.— Precedingunsigned comment added by89.241.181.171 (talk)18:39, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That source is a reliable source, but those "facts" aren't coming from them, they are attributing them to other parties, so you can't say he was a racist according to that source. The fact that the board is considering renaming the stadium might actually be worth a note, paying close attention toWP:DUE, but under no circumstance would that source prove he is a racist. To be clear, this isn't an administrator position, this is my opinion as an established and experienced editor. Content issues are decided by editors, not admin.

Hey, I saw you were busy cleaning it up--I don't know if you reported at AIV or RFPP, but that's always a good thing to do, even if it's a bit slow sometimes. And don't be afraid to paste warning templates--some admins really want to see increasingly serious warnings on a user talk page, from 1 to 4, before they block. As a side note, that was one hell of a mess, with a lot of IPs from Czech and Slovakia; guess they have plenty of internet vandals as well.

The fact that you're removing sourced information just because "you don't like it", are operating under multiple IP accounts (always a suspicious sign) and insulting longstanding editors who have bothered to log in says a lot to me.Rodericksilly (talk)15:01, 5 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Don't be silly, Roderick, please! I use different devices - PC, mobile etc. Hence different IP's. I usually forget to login, but have my own account. Taking it as "suspicious" says a lot to me about you. By the way, for your information: the way "longstanding editors" treat my edits doesn't differ if I am logged in or not. You seem to treat this page as your personal farm and behave not maturely. Being a "longstanding" editor doesn't mean being infallible. I had been a moderator on some hobby forum for years and never behaved like this. I understand that you have engaged yourself in this project/article, made a lot of improvements here and you seem devoted to them. But ruthless cancelling other users edits doesn't speak well of you. Take an example from other editors who at least write any explanations! You say I insulted you? Your behavour against my edits was also insulting. And it's not that "I don't like something". There are common rules in the web e.g. not to spread hatred that "longtime editor" should know. Those informations have source? This is really silly. If I do an edit with quotes from "Meinkampf", will it not have a source? Will you accept it? Don't answer, please.

I made an edit to a wet-plate photograph description changing "black or dark-colored" to "non-white" and was told it was no different. This is not the case.

Wet-plate photographs do not detect color like more modern film photographs do:

The dark color in the photograph could just as easily be a bright red or orange; the only thing we can say for sure is that it is not white and not bright blue.

Are you going to revert back to the colon or should I? Basically we are discussing one compound sentence which uses semicolons to separate what could be stand-alone related sentences. The language is describing a numerical listing. The quantity on the left of the colon should equal the total of the quantities to the right of the colon. It could be written differently (which helped me see a missing semicolon).

During the ill fated1979 Fastnet race, of 300 yachts, 158 chose to adopt storm tactics:

• 86 'lay ahull', whereby the yacht adopts a 'beam on' attitude to the wind and waves;
• 46 ran before the wind under bare poles or trailing warps/sea anchors; and
• 26 heaved to.

100 yachts suffered knock downs, 77 rolled (that isturtled) at least once. Not one of the hove to yachts were capsized or suffered any serious damage.^[1] The 'heave to' maneuver is described in the story of the first Golden Globe yacht race of 1968.^[2]68.32.154.213 (talk)21:22, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You reverted this page back to:

In 1665, the charter was revised slightly (see Royal Colonial Boundary of 1665), with the northerly boundary extended to 36 degrees 30 minutes north to include the lands of settlers along the Albemarle Sound who had left the Virginia Colony. Likewise, the southern boundary was moved south to 29 degrees north, just south of present-day Daytona Beach, Florida, which had the effect of including the existing Spanish settlement at St. Augustine. The charter also granted all the land, between these northerly and southerly bounds, from the Atlantic, westward to the shores of the Pacific Ocean.[1]

I thought the change I made would be better. Foremost, the charter was not revised "slightly". I do see where you thought my insertion of "about 60 nautical miles" was vandalism though. The expansion to the north was about 60 nautical miles, the southern was much larger and the maximum distance to the west was huge -- the Pacific Ocean. I am going to consider changing the word "slightly" to "significantly".68.32.154.213 (talk)18:44, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

EditorUser:Buster7 submitted the following nomination forEditor of the Week:

Vandalism is the enemy of Wikipedia. It undermines the reliability of the encyclopedia and threatens its long-term value to our readers. There are many, many vandal fighting editors and to pick one may seem unfair to the rest. These editors perform the behind-the-scenes work that is normally not seen by the general community while safe-guarding our mutual commitment to verifiable knowledge.CLCStudent (talk ·contribs ·count ·logs) has been actively chasing vandals for only a short time. He already has over 6000 edits, uses the edit summary 93% of the time, and almost half of his edits are to main space. 172 visits toWP:AIV and 100 toWP:Rpp display an new editor that understands the threat that vandals are. Voting inthe Stewards Election of 2016 shows his concern for the care and well-being of WP. Let User:CLC be the recipient on behalf of all the other vandal fighters.
