Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Lea Michele has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Lvd-EsjoiM&feature=player_embedded#t=167 (matching the regex rule \byoutube\.com). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file. Video links are also strongly deprecated by our guidelines for external links, partly because they're useless to people with slow internet connections. 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. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 07:40, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Lea Michele do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia.

Lea Michele
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Lea Michele. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Paul Erik (talk) (contribs) 18:07, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did to Lea Michele. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Active Banana   ( bananaphone  16:42, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

 * 1) Information.svg Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

File copyright problem with File:Normal lm01-19 (2).jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Normal lm01-19 (2).jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log].

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. ww2censor (talk) 22:43, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Lea Michele article — reversion and suppression of edits
Hi. Please be aware that a series of edits which you made to the article on Lea Michele have been reverted. There is no direct indication on the realty site you cited as a source to indicate that this was, in fact, Lea Michele's house. The apparent resemblance of this house to the house shown in the already-cited Daily Mail article is not sufficient here; any attempt to conclude on this basis alone that this is/was Lea Michele's house, or that Lea Michele just sold her house, runs afoul of Wikipedia's prohibition on synthesizing information from multiple sources (see WP:SYNTH).

Further, the page on the realty site gives the address of the home in question — thus implying that this is (or was until just recently) Lea Michele's home address. Again, such a conclusion is not acceptable per WP:SYNTH. And even if Lea Michele's home address were clearly and unambiguously given in the cited web page (which is not the case here), our "Biographies of Living Persons" policy (WP:BLP) generally prohibits inclusion of such material in a Wikipedia article (see WP:BLPPRIVACY).

For these reasons, I have reverted (undone) the above edits to the article. Additionally, I have suppressed (expunged) the material in question, per Wikipedia's "Oversight" policy (see WP:OS) — which means it will not be visible in the article's revision history to anyone at all (except for a small group of trusted users on Wikipedia's Oversight team).

I would recommend you read the BLP policy carefully and make sure your future editing work conforms to this policy. I would also encourage you to review Wikipedia's policies regarding reliable sources (WP:RS) and avoidance of original research (WP:NOR). If you have any questions or concerns about any of this, please feel free to post them here (I will be following your talk page), or if you would prefer, you can send me e-mail via the "email user" link on my user page. — Rich wales (no relation to Jimbo) 17:23, 26 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Given that you've reinstated the material which I objected to above, I've brought this issue to the attention of the "Biographies of Living Persons Noticeboard" (WP:BLP/N) for community input ([ see here]). I acknowledge that the two photos in question may very likely be of the same house, but they are not "the same picture".  And my other point, about inappropriately revealing a possible or likely residence address for Lea Michele, still stands; in my opinion, this violates WP:BLPPRIVACY.  If you still disagree with me, I recommend you comment as you see fit on the BLP noticeboard.  —  Rich wales (no relation to Jimbo) 19:40, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

Continuing attempts to remove Cory Monteith from the Lea Michele article
Attmcb, you have made a number of attempts to remove the information about Lea Michele's relationship with Cory Monteith from the Lea Michele article, the latest a short while ago. Every time you try, the material is restored, generally by reverting what you have done. The edit summaries given make it clear that your view of why the material should be removed is not shared by other editors.

If you truly feel the material needs to be removed, you will first need to convince the editing community at large that your view of the matter makes sense in view of various Wikipedia guidelines about appropriate personal material in biographies of living persons. You should do this by posting at Talk:Lea Michele. At the moment, given the number of different editors who have undone your edits, the consensus is clearly that the material belongs in the article. If you continue to remove it against consensus, it could lead to you being blocked from editing, or even disallowed from editing the article altogether. I hope you'll open a conversation at the article's talk page; it's the best way forward. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:42, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

Final warning about your renewed efforts to remove all mention of Cory Monteith from Lea Michele
Attmcb, about a year ago, after you made a number of attempts to remove the information about Lea Michele's relationship with Cory Monteith from the Lea Michele article. As I pointed out at the time, every time you try, the material is restored, generally by reverting what you have done. The edit summaries given make it clear that your view of why the material should be removed has not been shared by other editors.

It is up to you to be a responsible Wikipedia editor and post the reasons at Talk:Lea Michele why you believe that Monteith was not a notable figure in Michele's life and therefore should be removed. You'll need to convince others, and the only way to do that is to start a conversation and hope to gain a consensus that the material should be removed.

If you attempt to remove that material again before gaining that consensus, it will be considered disruptive behavior, and reported to the administrators' noticeboard for action. It is very possible that you will be either blocked or prevented from editing the Lea Michele article in future.

I hope you will be willing to either post your points at the article's talk page, or cease your attempts to remove Monteith from the article. Thank you for your consideration. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:41, 6 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Over the course of a year and a half, you have removed the section 6 times. You've been reverted 6 times by multiple editors. It is time to either drop it or take the issue to an appropriate venue. - Sum mer PhD v2.0 17:02, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Cerebral726. I noticed that you recently removed content from Lea Michele 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 your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Do not remove the section about her literacy without consensus. Cerebral726 (talk) 21:12, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
