Vandalism on Ford American/Canadian SUV Timeline from the 90s Onward
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Template:Ford trucks of the United States & Canada 1990 to present.

I had to manually revert your edit to the edit done in December. what you did to the SVT Line was vandalism.

See the vandalism for yourself: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Ford_trucks_of_the_United_States_%26_Canada_1990_to_present&diff=prev&oldid=1217777790 Xp4eternity (talk) 16:57, 18 April 2024 (UTC)


 * I suggest you think carefully before throwing around accusations of vandalism, and issuing threats. I made a number of edits to that template, one of which, I now see, broke a part of the table. I should have noticed, of course, but I did not. Thank you for fixing it. If you had brought it to my attention courteously, I would have fixed it myself.

 * Thank you for replying back.
 * You ain't the only one who have been there. So have I. On my old account, I had received numerous times that warning with no prior FYI. Not just with vandalism but other things like putting something with no "reliable source". I didn't know what you were trying to do. Many people like me would easily assume that was vandalism. But I'm glad you clarified the situation.
 * Also, there is always a preview on the right when you edit. I suggest you look at the preview as you edit. It will help a lot. Xp4eternity (talk) 21:29, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
 * You are expected to assume good faith, especially when dealing with someone who's been an editor for many years. And I suggest you don't patronise me. Now go away and don't come back to this talk page again. Colonies Chris (talk) 22:12, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Dude, really:
 * "Now go away and don't come back to this talk page again."
 * Seriously, I was by an inch away from either reporting you or blocking you from editing the timeline but after reading (and that its a complex thing), I'm not gonna do that. You could had said it in a nicer way. The good faith and don't patronise things you said plus something like thank you. I'll make a note of that. or something around those lines.
 * If you want me to refrain from your talk page, then stop replying and you'll see how I will refrain from your talk page.
 * End of discussion. any other messages will be ignored. Xp4eternity (talk) 00:44, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi Colonies Chris. Thank you for your work on O'Reilly Family Event Center. Another editor, SunDawn, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.) @SunDawn @Colonies Chris Thank you for your page edits and contributions! It was a pleasure constructing the O’Reilly article and I’m happy I got the experience. Now for a few facts on my editing process: I was looking through the List of NCAA Division II basketball arenas page looking for another venue deserving of a Wikipedia page. I started the process on several others, but they never really had the “spark” for a high-quality, “C-rated” or better page, so I scrapped them. Then I came across Drury University, and what won me over was Springfield News-Leader’s coverage on the arena’s construction and opening. I personally love O’Reilly’s exterior design. Also, the amount of concerts that have been held there is a plus and a compelling reason for O’Reilly to have a Wikipedia page. The research and editing process took about a month, maybe five weeks, from start to finish. I’d say it came out quite well for what it’s worth. Cheers to you both! Wjenkins96 (talk)
