Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to History of the Baltimore Colts, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use your sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

 * I do not agree with Theopolisme's above message. It appears that Theopolisme is (relatively) inexperienced and was using automated tools too fast without checking the edits they were reverting.  It appears you were in the process of creating the page in question and made a mistake when Theopolisme came along and acted too quickly.  I would ignore the above erroneous message if I were you.

Proposed deletion of Lee McGriff


The article Lee McGriff has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one.  Wilbysuffolk   Talk to me  19:09, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to Jeremy Lin does not have an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. Thanks! —Bagumba (talk) 09:53, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Lugia2453. I wanted to let you know that I undid one of your recent contributions, such as the one you made with this edit to New York Yankees, because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Lugia2453 (talk) 15:39, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Please refrain from making nonconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at New York Yankees with this edit. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism. Thank you. Lugia2453 (talk) 15:39, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to New York Yankees with this edit, you may be blocked from editing. &mdash; MusikAnimal talk 15:44, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for November 10
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Sports in Massachusetts, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Boston Shamrocks. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello. When citing Internet sources, please use the Template:cite web format as opposed to bare URLS. Using bare URLS is less professional, and in the information is rendered inaccessible if the version of the page is archived. Using the template allows for easier retrieval of the source.

Just an Alert
Yeah an alert, and like I said, you should read the comment next to material you changed. Galobtter (pingó mió) 16:20, 9 January 2018 (UTC) +Donald Trump has a lot of restrictions - WP:1RR, consensus required before restoration etc - see it on Talk:Donald_Trump Galobtter (pingó mió) 16:22, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

From your editsum: "Who the hell needs consensus to such a minor edit." Answer: Everybody at that article. Proceed with caution. ― Mandruss  &#9742;  17:07, 9 January 2018 (UTC) As explained, a consensus has determined it to be just New York City (because its redundant to state it's in new york and united states)and so it shouldn't be changed without consensus for your change. Further reversion will result in a block. Galobtter (pingó mió) 17:08, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi Bergeronp! Questions about the above “Alert”? I wrote a quick & dirty FAQ—check it out here. If you have any questions about policies or editing or anything else just ask me on my talk page :-) – Lionel(talk) 05:08, 5 May 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request for Abraham Lincoln
Some sources I found that could be added for the "assassination" section on the Abraham Lincoln page. These have mentioned by some respected sources, and even a few historians. “As he died his breathing grew quieter, his face more calm. According to some accounts, at his last drawn breath, on the morning after the assassination, he smiled broadly and then expired. Historians have emphasized Lincoln's peaceful appearance when and after he died. Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in the Lincoln Administration, Maunsell Bradhurst Field wrote, "I had never seen upon the President's face an expression more genial and pleasing." The President’s secretary, John Hay, saw "a look of unspeakable peace came upon his worn features". “

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

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:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting. Thanks! Snuggums (talk / edits) 03:31, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 11
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Presidency of Gerald Ford, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Republican Party ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Presidency_of_Gerald_Ford check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Presidency_of_Gerald_Ford?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
