==Placenames== Please stop changing the names of places in our articles, to different names to those used as our article titles, as you did at.

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at  , you may be blocked from editing. It was clearly explained, above, that you should not change the names of places in our articles, to different names to those used as our article titles, but you have continued doing so. Please stop - ~

As a longer standing example, Wien has been the official name of the capital of Österreich (another official name) for hundreds of years, but we won't be changing either name in the foreseeable future - ~

==Cast names in film plots== - Please do NOT add actors' names in the plot, as you did at,   and several other articles, since this is contrary to WP:FILMPLOT "Do not include actors' names in the plot summary" - Thank you - ~

=== what you know === Wikipedia is not interested in what you "know", only what has been published in WP:reliable sources, which must be cited so readers can verify that the information is true - ~

=== Conversion templates === - Please do not add conversion templates to the infoboxes of Indian films, as this is contrary to the consensus at WP:ICTF - Thank you - ~

== Links to user pages and sandboxes == Please do not introduce links in actual articles to user pages or sandboxes, as you did at. Since these pages have not been accepted as articles, user pages, sandboxes and drafts are not suitable for linking in articles. and such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been deleted, please do not re-add any such links, thank you - ~

It was clearly explained, above, that you should not add links to draft articles, but you have continued doing so. Please stop - ~

In the case of children, the omission of names also helps Child protection - Thank you - ~

As per Template:Infobox military conflict, do not use "non-standard terms like "decisive", "marginal" or "tactical"" in infoboxes,

 Discretionary sanctions alert  see Template:Ds/alert for use and codes - for Indo-Pak use ipa

$1/2$ or 1⁄2 also works for thirds and quarters $2 1/2$-year gives $2 1/2$-year

WP:2DABS Even if only 2 articles with similar names, if no primary topic, then that term needs to lead to a disambiguation page.

WP:QUOTE "any alterations must be clearly marked ... Exceptions are trivial spelling or typographical errors that obviously do not affect the intended meaning" This article is about a British band and the article is written in British English, which uses the plural for "nouns of multitude". Please see Comparison of American and British English for a fuller explanation.

The very first section of WP:ENGVAR is WP:COMMONALITY "Wikipedia tries to find words that are common to all varieties of English." If XXX was the only acceptable word in XXX, then under ENGVAR, that should be used on relevant articles. However, as there is a word "common to all varieties of English" then COMMONALITY requires that it is used, even if other spellings exist

When using include the number of colons the last post had. If it was 4, use or. This connects the line to the previous post.

+ will increase the font size, + will reduce it and + (zero) will return it to 'normal' size.

School song - - Rm as WP:WPSCH/AG - Do not include "The lyrics of the school song (or school anthem)"

== Forced image sizes == Please stop adding forced image sizes to articles, as you keep doing at XXXX. As it clearly states at WP:IMAGESIZE Except with very good reason, do not use  (e.g.  ), which forces a fixed image width measured in pixels, disregarding the user's image size preference setting. The bold is in the guideline, not something I have added. - ~

== Muhammad ==

Please note that WP:Wikipedia is not censored so we show images of Muhammad. This has been discussed at great length, and will NOT be changed. If YOU do not want to see such images, please follow the instructions at FAQ 3 on Talk:Muhammad - Thank you - ~

WikiGnome
Hi - I am a little WikiGnome, who goes around tidying up spelling mistakes especially words beginning with R. I have learnt a lot about XXXX, changing "Retreived" (ei) to Retrieved (ie). I know how easy it is to copy and paste one mistake into numerous articles - but could you please correct this spelling before adding it to any more articles? Thanks

Flags in infoboxes
Hello, I am a little WP:WikiGnome, who goes around tidying things up. I notice that you have been adding a lot of flag icons into infoboxes. The policy on this is WP:Manual_of_Style/Icons which says that "flag icons should not be used in infoboxes, even when there is a "country", "nationality" or equivalent field". I have removed those flags that I have found, but it would help me if you did not add any more. Thanks ~
