I'm sorry, but you cannot arbitrarily change the color of text in an article because it is "fun". Our manual of style dictates that prose text should never be manually colored. ViperSnake151  Talk  19:25, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
 * And also, please read WP:OWN. You may have made your edits, but in the context of how this site works, they are not strictly your sole property. It belongs to the community: the disclaimer above every editing window says that "Work submitted to Wikipedia can be edited, used, and redistributed—by anyone" (emphasis mine). Additionally, I reverted your changes to iOS jailbreaking mainly because they were not backed by a reliable citation. ViperSnake151   Talk  03:43, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
 * No, the whole thing. There are rules that must and/or should be followed here. ViperSnake151   Talk  17:41, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
 * You're misunderstanding what I say. Our manual of style says that we should not color article text like that. Period. ViperSnake151   Talk  21:55, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

National varieties of English
In a recent edit to the page Metric system, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. NebY (talk) 21:21, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

License tagging for File:YouTube world map updated.png
Thanks for updating the YouTube world map in Censorship of YouTube. The current file is File:YouTube world map updated.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 20:05, 12 June 2015 (UTC)

June 2015
Hello, I'm Winner 42. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Ree Drummond, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Winner 42 Talk to me!  17:53, 15 June 2015 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Helpsome (talk) 23:52, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

Your Edit to Washington State
I undid the edit because the state's ban on lollipops is not notable. It's not an important piece of information or something that Washington is known for, particularly because the law is not enforced. It's just trivia. Scarlettail (talk) 21:51, 8 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia generally discourages trivia sections. See WP:TRIVIA. Scarlettail (talk) 23:02, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

Apology
I had no clue why I created this account in the first place, and I want to apologize for making vandalistic edits with this account. And I know Wikipedia accounts can’t be deleted as well
