Your IP address, 76.166.183.180, is part of a pool of dynamically allocated addresses and is registered to Charter Communications. It may be shared by multiple users, so you might receive messages on this page that were not intended for you.

To have your own user pages, keep track of articles you've edited in a watchlist, and have access to a few other special features, please consider registering an account! It's fast and free. (Note: Sometimes, due to vandalism, you may be temporarily unable to register).

Applying an indefinite block to this IP is not appropriate, unless it is a soft block, because the IP address will later be reallocated to a different, unrelated, and unsuspecting user, thereby impairing access to Wikipedia in an inappropriate fashion. Caution should be used when blocking this IP or reverting its contributions without checking.

The best approach is to determine the CIDR IP numerical address range and make a higher-level decision to soft-block the entire range. http://www.arin.net/ (for approximately North America) and related sites can help to identify that range. Caution is advised when applying a range block as other Wikipedians, both registered and otherwise, may be affected.

In the event of vandalism from this IP address, abuse reports can be sent to its network administrator for investigation.

Review contributions carefully if blocking this IP address or reverting its contributions. If a block is needed, administrators should consider a soft block using Template:Anonblock.

Network administrators, to monitor this IP address for vandalism, can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

This IP address has been repeatedly blocked from editing Wikipedia in response to abuse of editing privileges.
Further abuse from this IP address may result in an extended block.

Hello! I noticed your contributions and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. You are welcome to edit anonymously; however, creating an account is free and has several benefits (for example, the ability to create pages, upload media and edit without one's IP address being visible to the public).

Soccer results[edit]

Please make sure to use a dash (–) instead of a hyphen (-) in score templates, per MOS:DASH. Also, make sure to update the result parameter with W, L, or D depending on the outcome for the listed team. Sounder Bruce 02:34, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also, please do not update matches until they have concluded and been marked as finished in the MLS matchcenter. A few of the past discussions about live updates are linked in this editnotice. Sounder Bruce 02:44, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Template:Leagues Cup—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks.

Sorry, I made a mistake and got lost trying to copy a knockout bracket. Just add LAFC for MLS top seed and Pachuca for Liga MX top seed. 76.166.183.180 (talk) 01:19, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. You keep adding 2026 FIFA World Cup to the list of former names of various stadiums. How can a stadium have a former name for something that hasn't happened yet? Please stop. Magnolia677 (talk) 19:03, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ok here's the source. https://www.fifa.com/fifaplus/en/articles/world-cup-2026-stadiums-fifa-soccer-football-mexico-usa-canada

Is there a way I can add it without it being "disruptive"? 76.166.183.180 (talk) 19:04, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please make sure to properly fill out citations instead of leaving bare URLs, which are prone to link rot. Sounder Bruce 19:56, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Hard Rock Stadium. You wrote: "The stadium will host several matches during the 2026 FIFA World Cup. During the event, the stadium will be temporarily renamed to 'Miami Stadium' in accordance with FIFA's policy on corporate sponsored names." The source cited mentions nothing about "temporary renaming" or FIFA's policy". Moreover, this is trivial content for a concert venue. Please stop your disruptive editing.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at NRG Stadium. The source you used was not reliable. Mako001 (C) (T) 🇺🇦 08:17, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Ideally you would want to use a secondary source instead of primary source for the edit you made. The source you used is a primary source. Not in all scenarios you can use a primary source, see WP:PRIMARY. AP 499D25 (talk) 08:32, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also, if other pages are using unreliable sources or none at all, either add reliable sources, or removed the unsourced or poorly sourced content. Don't just add more unsourced or poorly sourced content. Mako001 (C) (T) 🇺🇦 08:34, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions. Please be aware that the three-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 a consensus among editors. The dispute resolution processes may also help. Excessive reverting may result in a loss of editing privileges. AP 499D25 (talk) 08:35, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Look, I just wanted to put the Taylor Swift concerts in the concert boxes since they are going to happen. It's a big deal here in America, so I don't understand why just putting them in is an issue. Most people know about it already. 76.166.183.180 (talk) 08:38, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you make disruptive edits to Wikipedia contrary to the Manual of Style, as you did at SoFi Stadium. Riverbend21 (talk) 15:27, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Mercedes-Benz Stadium shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page 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 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—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

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

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button 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.

Thank you. General Ization ^Talk 00:44, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on MetLife Stadium. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

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

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Untamed1910 (talk) 22:35, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

I understand that edit warring is not a good thing. It damages the pages, creates confusion, and is quite disruptive to the flow of the site. It also can create issues if said event doesn't happen, like a concert getting cancelled because of weather or external events. If I can return, I will refrain from such behavior and stick to helpful edits. I will use the discussion pages to help get a consensus from my fellow editors so that there won't be edit wars. More importantly, I stopped edit warring and stuck to adding events that had already happened. 76.166.183.180 (talk) 00:46, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

The problems extended beyond edit warring. Yamla (talk) 09:47, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
