Welcome!
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions&#32;so far. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Here are some links to pages you may find useful:
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * Simplified Manual of Style

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply  [ create a named account] . It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:
 * Create new pages and rename pages
 * Edit semi-protected pages
 * Upload images
 * Have your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed

Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a minimum number of days and made a minimum number of edits.

If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (50.26.172.216) is used to identify you instead.

I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Questions, or you can  to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (&#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;).

Happy editing! 🐦DrWho42 ( 🔨 ) 13:53, 25 January 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Business Insiders have been undone because they 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 help desk. Materialscientist (talk) 10:48, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Cosmos: A Personal Voyage. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. ''Do not make deletions without giving a valid reason. In the case of Cosmos you deletion was inaccurate. Thank you.'' David J Johnson (talk) 18:04, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
 * These edits were absolutely legitimate and constructive, as I've explained it on your user talk page. Stroking out the warning message. Dear editor, please consider it void. Best, Tymon. r  Do you have any questions?  00:05, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Then the deletion should have been properly explained by the IP, rather than a unexplained change. Regards, David J Johnson (talk) 11:47, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * On the same month, you added categories to Tell Tale Hearts which is not true. Wynn Liaw (talk) 09:18, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

Missing categories
Please take care when moving pages between categories. Many of the categories to which you are adding pages do not exist. Per MOS:CATORDER, An article should never be left with a non-existent (redlinked) category on it. Either the category should be created, or else the link should be removed or changed to a category that does exist. Certes (talk) 00:22, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm SanAnMan. I noticed that you recently removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. SanAnMan (talk) 20:55, 6 March 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at AC/DC discography, you may be blocked from editing. - FlightTime  ( open channel ) 00:38, 19 March 2020 (UTC)

Template:CatAutoTOC
CatAutoTOC is only for large categories. If we wanted it on all categories of a certain size then we could get a bot to add it. Please stop adding it to categories with less than 100 pages. It does nothing there but uses resources. PrimeHunter (talk) 01:24, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

I see that you are replacing Category TOC with CatAutoTOC. Good work, but I have an AWB job doing that, which involves far less effort ... so it's not a good use of your time to do it manually. -- Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 20:56, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Actually, BrownHairedGirl, I've discover these AutoTOCs just within the past few days, and I feel that replacing the older TOCs is NOT a good idea. I can see where it's handy if a page needs a TOC and doesn't have one.  But the non-auto ones can be chosen and tailored to fit a particular page.  There really is no need for a TOC that includes 0-9 on a page (probably most pages) that doesn't have entries there. 12:50, 3 May 2020 (UTC)Uporządnicki (talk) 12:51, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
 * No, it's not good work in most of these cases. It should not be applied when all the entries total fewer than 100, or in the ridiculous case here, where nearly everything begins with the same letter. Johnbod (talk) 12:03, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I second--and third and fourth--the motion that you should refrain from adding TOCs to categories that are complete on one page. I can't see that it is any use at all. Uporządnicki (talk) 03:41, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Actually, on reflection, I want to walk that back a bit. I see no point to a TOC on a category with 200 or fewer items (i.e. a one page category), but apparently there are those who do.  And I guess it does no harm (I just think it's a bit silly).  This IP user appears to have done hundreds of them--just yesterday!  I realphabetize categories, adding or editing sortkeys; I've done dozens of categories, some with thousands of items.  Some might wonder if it's really worth the effort.

Hello, I'm CycloneYoris. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, List of colors (compact), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. CycloneYoris talk! 19:36, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at List of colors: G–M, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. CycloneYoris talk! 19:39, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at List of colors (compact). ''You've been reverted several times now.

Removing categories
Why are you removing categories from Category:Greatest hits albums by year? E.g. Category:2013 greatest hits albums? ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 17:55, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

I'm also concerned why it is beneficial to replace the year with a template in the category names. You have only been unblocked for a few days. In that time you have accumulated four warnings, been involved in an edit war, and have made a massive number of changes to categories that appear to be controversial. I remind you that you were blocked for persistently making controversial changes to categories. Please stop that activity now and open a discussion to get consensus on it before proceeding. You are extremely close to being blocked again so please exercise caution. <b style="background:#FAFAD2;color:#C08000">Spinning</b><b style="color:#4840A0">Spark</b> 16:08, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Category:21st-century Scottish women writers. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. ''You broke the parent categories on this page. Please stop.''

 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that in this edit to Category:Racehorse deaths by year, 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) 19:55, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

I noticed your recent edit to Category:Deaths by year does not have an edit summary.&#32;Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:


 * User contributions
 * Recent changes
 * Watchlists
 * Revision differences
 * IRC channels
 * Related changes
 * New pages list
 * Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting. Thanks! ExcitedEngineer (talk) 19:40, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

ANI thread
I started a thread about your latest edits here at WP:ANI. Flyer22 Frozen (talk) 04:47, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

Non-existent categories
Before adding a category to an article, as you did to Club Seven, please make sure that the category page actually exists. In some cases, it may be appropriate to create a new category in accordance with Wikipedia's categorization guidelines, but it is usually better to use the most specific available existing category. It is never appropriate to leave a page categorised in a non-existent category, i.e. one whose link displays in red. You may find it helpful to use the gadget HotCat, which tests whether a category exists before saving a change. You have done similar edits to many other tv-related pages. Please stop. . -- Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 19:03, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

 * This was brought up at ANI, where you could have argued your case, in complete sentences. How your edits make stuff more accessible is not clear to me. You have been blocked before, for the same kind of disruption--and a complete lack of explanation for your edits is part of that. If you don't start addressing that, you will not be unblocked, and you are likely to get blocked again. This is a collaborative project, and you must act accordingly.
