Opined
Hi, your edit here changed a valid word, "opined" to "opened", which doesn't make any sense in context. Please look words up if you don't recognize them. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:45, 5 October 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for your edits!
Hello thanks for your edits to Wikipedia Articles recently :) However, unfortunately it appears that you might be in need of some guidance when it comes down to he use of subheadings on here. Please don't hyperlink subheadings on Wikipedia as this is generally not an acceptable form of formatting for articles. Instead try to use a "see also" template. Have a look at WP:HYPERHEADING for more information. Olowe2011  Talk 15:14, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I'm KylieTastic. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Spain men's national basketball team— because it did not appear constructive. 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.

Georgia men's national ice hockey team
Regarding the edits: matches within the USSR are by their very definition not international, so are not appropriate for the infobox or the table of international matches. They are definitely appropriate for the body of the article, as it is important in the history of Georgian hockey, but please do not re-add them to the infobox again, as that is solely for international matches.

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello 73.199.0.168, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to List of Paralympic mascots have been removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues here.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Copyrights. You may also want to review Copy-paste.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Translation. See also Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 22:37, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
