Hello, I'm Doniago. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Cedar Rapids, Iowa have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 05:19, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Cedar Rapids, Iowa, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that.   -BriLila (talk) 00:47, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Adakiko. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Bowery Ballroom, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Adakiko (talk) 04:54, 23 May 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that in this edit to Zakk Wylde, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 22:07, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

Hi 38.65.249.252! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Tim Alexander several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree&#32;at, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Tacyarg (talk) 21:23, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Tim Alexander. 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: 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. Tacyarg (talk) 07:57, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 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.

Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Tim Alexander, you may be blocked from editing. Tacyarg (talk) 09:10, 6 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Are you even a drummer? Unlikely. If you were a drummer, then you would know that Tim Alexander has been influenced by Neil Peart, Bill Bruford, Alex van Halen, Stewart Copeland, and John Bonham on drums. Go listen to interviews with him and see for yourself. It is fairly common knowledge. You are the one who needs to stop your power game. 38.65.249.252 (talk) 23:41, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

repeat insertion of uncited claims
you're repeatedly putting unreferenced material into a biographical article. please stop, or find an acceptable citation for the claim you're making.

it's difficult to keep an encyclopedia accurate when editors insert marginalia that isn't sourced. Augmented Seventh (talk) 06:20, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
