Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page East Orange, New Jersey has been reverted. Your edit here to East Orange, New Jersey was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links in references which are discouraged per our reliable sources guideline (see also this list of frequently-discussed sources). The reference(s) you added or changed (https://vgost.fandom.com/wiki/NBA_2K21) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. 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. Nathaniel Macon's views were common for Southern leaders at the time; a discussion of those views is most appropriate in the Nathaniel Macon, not peppered around every place he is mentioned.

 * 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.


 * Thank you for reaching out. As you mentioned, it was common for politicians in the American South to view slavery as a necessary and as such, would be of no surprise to readers to that a Southern man would see slavery in a positive light.  As a Macon County Illinois resident my entire adult life, I was unaware that Nathaniel Macon was a southern man and not a resident of Illinois.  My edits were to mainly inform and use of language used on Nathaniel Macon's main wiki page with a properly cited source.  As such, would you suggest an edit to my changes?  Or if the subject of your response "RIGHTGREATWRONGS" is any indication, it appears you've taken great offense to my changes? Allan Crawshank (talk) 21:00, 6 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Stop hand nuvola.svg If you canvass those articles again, you will be blocked from editing. It's not appropriate to add commentary like that to every mention of an individual (see WP:SYNTH; that discussion belongs in articles about the individual or administrations/actions.

 * Thank you again for the follow up. Again, to reference the original response - my intent was not to right a great wrong, which is referred to as “riding the crest of the wave” - my intent was to update with citation to a verifiable article, and using direct verbiage from the main page to apply throughout might. In further research, an edit to the pages would seem appropriate - with less commentary and direct citation to historical articles - that would balance the various pages to a majority view that anti-abolitionists, although they fought in the Revolutionary War and served in federal government, were slave owners and some voted against the Missouri compromise.

 * My intent is to warn you that any further WP:SYNTH commentary about Macon every time he is mentioned without any other relevant context will result in the loss of your editing privleges. OhNo itsJamie Talk 21:55, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
