Hello, I'm Trut-h-urts man. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Melky Cabrera, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation 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. Thank you. Trut-h-urts man (T • C) 20:48, 14 August 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Muboshgu. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Ichiro Suzuki because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, you can use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! – Muboshgu (talk) 20:25, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Derek Jeter. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Trut-h-urts man (T • C) 18:12, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Derek Jeter. Your edits have been reverted or removed. Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. – Muboshgu (talk) 11:42, 5 September 2013 (UTC)

Highlights in NBA bio infobox
Thanks for your recent contributions to Kobe Bryant. Please note that "NBA champion" is not considered a proper noun, thus "champion" is not capitalized. Also, year ranges in the infobox are typically displayed with an en dash, as opposed to listing each individual year. You can refer to Template:Infobox basketball biography under "Highlights" for typical guidelines used in NBA articles.—Bagumba (talk) 05:34, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 10
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Aaron Gordon, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Power forward (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 08:57, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Please stop with the basketball positions
We stick with the 5 named positions (Center, power forward, small forward, point guard shooting guard) or just forward or guard if more specific us not known. Thanks. Rikster2 (talk) 03:18, 12 January 2014 (UTC)

Player positions
For player positions such as your edit to Kobe Bryant, we go off sources that list a player's generally accepted position. For example, Bryant at http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/b/bryanko01.html is listed as shooting guard only, although he played a few games at point guard. To avoid original research, please be prepared to cite sources that support any position changes. Thanks.—Bagumba (talk) 03:19, 12 January 2014 (UTC)

January 2014
Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. —Bagumba (talk) 04:00, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Kindly request again that you pay more attention to marking edits "minor", as this one was not minor.—Bagumba (talk) 01:41, 31 January 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm still seeing your use of minor edits on your contributions. I'm not sure if you are able to view your talk page correctly.  Can you just write something here to acknowledge that you are receiving this?  Thanks.—Bagumba (talk) 01:20, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

NBA infobox
Thanks for your recent contributions. Please note that info in an infobox should be concise. So there is no need to put links of all the ASG years. — Chris! c / t 23:37, 31 January 2014 (UTC)
 * You can also look at the instructions at Template:Infobox basketball biography, where some common practices are detailed.—Bagumba (talk) 01:10, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
 * I had to revert a few of your recent edits to the "league" field of the infobox. The league is intended to be the player's current league, not all the leagues in his career.  Again, please refer to Template:Infobox basketball biography, or look at the existing format in other NBA bios.—Bagumba (talk) 08:50, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Changes to NBA articles
Wikipedia encourages editors to be bold with their edits. However, sometimes if you do similar changes to multiple articles, your work might get reverted on each of them because it is against consensus. Nobody likes having all their work reverted, so you can also consider posting a question to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject National Basketball Association in advance of making a stylistic change to multiple articles. If it turns out there is no consensus, you save a lot of your work from needing to be undone. Thanks.—Bagumba (talk) 01:16, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

Championships in the infobox
There is a discussion at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_National_Football_League that you are invited to join. This is related to your recent edits adding Super Bowl appearances and conference championships into infoboxes.—Bagumba (talk) 23:05, 3 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Please don't add information back about Super Bowl and championship appearances without discussing, as you did with this edit at Colin Kaepernick. Wikipedia discourages edit warring.—Bagumba (talk) 16:58, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

NFL Top 100
Consensus is not to put them in infoboxes: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_National_Football_League. Thanks.—Bagumba (talk) 04:54, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

Playoff leaders in infobox
There is no consensus to add playoff leaders in stats categories into the infobox per Wikipedia_talk:NBA. Please discuss there if you disagree.—Bagumba (talk) 03:51, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Please discuss before adding this same information to Michael Jordan. I am removing it as there was never support.—Bagumba (talk) 06:42, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

NBA bio infobox conventions
You might find WikiProject_National_Basketball_Association/Article_guidelines to be helpful; it has details of conventions that are generally followed for the infobox for NBA bios. If you are planning to make a common change to multiple articles that is not mentioned in that document, it may be helpful to discuss at WT:NBA to gauge whether there is consensus. Thanks.—Bagumba (talk) 03:56, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Adding minutes leaders leaders to LeBron James and Monta Ellis is an example. There is a new discussion at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_National_Basketball_Association.—Bagumba (talk) 04:22, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Your recent edit of Dwyane Wade also continues to clash with conventions from other NBA biographies as well as consensus at the aforementioned WikiProject_National_Basketball_Association/Article_guidelines. Please discuss if you wish to change consensus.—Bagumba (talk) 21:14, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Your recent edit to LeBron James is a disruptive, again adding detail against conventions in other articles without discussion, and marking them as minor.—Bagumba (talk) 01:36, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

It may not have been your intention, but one of your edits, specifically one that you made on Lebron James, may have introduced material that some consider controversial. Due to this, your edits may have been reverted. When adding material that may be controversial, it is good practice to first discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them, to gain consensus over whether or not to include the text, phrasing, etc. If you believe that the information you added was correct, please initiate that discussion. Wikipedia is a collaboration, and it's important to communicate with your fellow editors.  Mini  apolis  02:29, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

Major LeBron James edits
DJSkippyB,

I appreciate the work you have put into the 2014 section of LeBron James; however, as we hope to keep that article in Good Article standing and eventually push for a Featured Article, I think that your work will need to be trimmed substantially. It is simply not good Wikipedia practice to devote three whole paragraphs to a single season, especially considering the first paragraph is devoted entirely to a single game. I am going to open a Talk section over there now and confirm with the community that trimming down your edits is the correct thing to do in case I am mistaken. If others confirm that the work needs to be trimmed, I will go ahead and do so. Thanks!--Ktmartell (talk) 13:51, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

Barry Bonds
I see that you just added a lot of content to Barry Bonds. Can you please provide a WP:RS to use for WP:ICs. Otherwise, I will revert your changes.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 06:19, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I have reverted all of your changes since you do not seem to understand how to provide proper WP:ICs from WP:RS.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 05:15, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

First-team vs First Team
For the most recent discussion regarding using "first-team", see Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_National_Basketball_Association/Archive_26. Typically it's hyphenated and not capitalized for something like "first-team All-American".—Bagumba (talk) 19:46, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I'm EricEnfermero. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Stephen Curry, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Edit warring on NBA infobox
Please refrain from your slow edit warring over highlights in the infobox at Stephen Curry. Your edits are contrary to WikiProject_National_Basketball_Association/Style_advice. You were kindly asked before to get consensus for any changes you want to propose to the style guide. WT:NBA would be a suitable venue. Any further edits against consensus of the style guide will be considered as disruptive editing. Thanks.—Bagumba (talk) 21:42, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text   below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Kevin Durant‎‎. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. —Bagumba (talk) 04:39, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.

Disambiguation link notification for April 26
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits.

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Madison Bumgarner, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:02, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
