Texan vs. Texian
I reverted your edit on the Mexican-American War article. While modern-day residents of the US state of Texas are known as Texans, the term Texian specifically refers to Anglo-American residents of Texas while it was a Mexican state and a sovereign nation. Just thought you'd like to know the reason for my revert. --clpo13(talk) 06:56, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits. If you vandalize Wikipedia again, you will be blocked from editing. chiefhuggybear (talk) 02:37, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

You have been from editing in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for persistent vandalism. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text below.

Uncharted
An American game, but the author an Englishman - apologies for spelling it "colour", it can be difficult reminding oneself to type American in places. :) Synergy/Blades (Talk) 12:30, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

 * [[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|25px]] Please stop. Continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to may be considered vandalism. Further edits of this type may result in you being blocked from editing Wikipedia. Binksternet (talk) 03:05, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|25px]] Please stop. Continuing to remove content when asking for citation as you did to Cyclic history without discussing the problem on the talk page is a mild form of vandalism. BTW I think I agree with you but how can I tell when I don't know what you're thinking. John Harvey (talk) 14:26, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

August 2009
Please remember to mark your edits as minor if (and only if) they genuinely are minor edits (see Help:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearranging of text without modifying content should be flagged as a 'minor edit.'  --EEMIV (talk) 02:24, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm sorry. It was my mistake. What was I reading? Please forgive me. Regards. Oda Mari (talk) 16:48, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

12 Angry Men
Noted your post on Sotomayor. While the NY jury instruction document is relevant, the anonymous poster attributed remarks to Sotomayor that weren't in the NY Times article - which is not to say she did not say them, just that we need a reference to it. It might be more relevant to post s separate section on how the 12 Angry jurors violated basic jury rules.--Klantry01 (talk) 21:16, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for August 24
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Treehouse of Horror III, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Family Dog. 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.

Disambiguation link notification for December 15
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Vivienne Medrano, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page American. 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.)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that one or more recent edit(s) you made did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting, and then click the "Save" button. Thanks! Rsk6400 (talk) 07:17, 13 October 2023 (UTC)

Slave vs. enslaved
Here's one article about why to use "enslaved" vs. "slave" when describing a person. Slave is an outdated term and seems to describe at someone's core that they are a slave. Whereas "enslaved" is a condition which can be reversed / fixed. I hope that makes sense. There are other articles about the use of "enslaved" vs. "slave" that can be found by googling: "enslaved" vs. "slave", such as this Chicago Tribune column. "]" I hope this makes sense. I am fixing some of your recent edits. If you can help with any that I may miss, it's much appreciated.–CaroleHenson (talk) 22:29, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
