Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia.

Disambiguation link notification for January 24
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page George Hamilton ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/BAFTA_Award_for_Best_Actor_in_a_Leading_Role check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/BAFTA_Award_for_Best_Actor_in_a_Leading_Role?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.)

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Dire Straits, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.  Rob van  vee  05:59, 6 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Please don't put an album footer or a single footer at the bottom of musical artist biographies. Album stuff goes with album articles, and single stuff goes with song articles. This kind of reversion without discussion and consensus is edit warring, and can lead to a block. Binksternet (talk) 22:59, 6 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Please stop, thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 22:13, 7 January 2019 (UTC)


 * You've now done it four more times, at Manic Street Preachers, The Verve, Travis (band) and Coldplay. Could you please now stop? Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 22:23, 7 January 2019 (UTC)

Intersection of Academy Awards with other awards
I have been removing all of your work that looks like this. Combining two awards on one awards page is off topic, and it's a violation of WP:SYNTH. Please don't do any more of this. Binksternet (talk) 05:22, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

February 2019
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

I noticed your recent edit to List of awards and nominations received by Lady Gaga does not have an edit summary.&#32;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:


 * User contributions
 * Recent changes
 * Watchlists
 * Revision differences
 * IRC channels
 * Related changes
 * New pages list
 * Article editing history

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! — IB [ Poke ] 14:21, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Grammy Award for Record of the Year, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. ''In the future, please use the edit summary field as noted above and review the edit summaries of those who revert your edits. Continuing to re-enter edits without explanation -- for edits that have been reverted by others with explanation -- is disruptive editing. Thank you.'' hulmem (talk) 22:15, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Grammy Award for Record of the Year into Grammy Award for Album of the Year. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 01:30, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at 25 (Adele album), you may be blocked from editing. Please start using edit summary or your edits will be construed as vandalism. — IB [ Poke ] 12:00, 15 March 2019 (UTC)

Hi, why you are so rude? i'm just add some archive links from archive.org, in case if original was deleted or broken. it's not vandalism or something like that. I hope you won't take offence. Diopic (talk) 15:31, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
 * This is not related to rudeness, you have been asked time and time again to start using edit summaries which every editor in Wikipedia should adhere to. You seem to pay no attention to these messages. I can see that you have started using edit summaries so its good now and please continue to do so. — IB [ Poke ] 11:45, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 20
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of awards and nominations received by Game of Thrones, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Deadline ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/List_of_awards_and_nominations_received_by_Game_of_Thrones check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/List_of_awards_and_nominations_received_by_Game_of_Thrones?client=notify fix with Dab solver]).

Meryl Streep awards page
Hi. I reverted your recent edits at List of awards and nominations received by Meryl Streep because the current standard for award-related pages is to have all the awards in one table (such as this article). Damian Vo (talk) 17:54, 30 July 2019 (UTC)

Kimia Hosseini moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Kimia Hosseini, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Emma Stone, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Elizium23 (talk) 20:09, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Emma Stone win Volpi Cup for Best Actress is well known fact and has references at her List of awards and nominations received by Emma Stone
 * There needs to be something in the main article about it, along with a source, or the category cannot be applied, per WP:CATV

Meryl Streep filmography (TV)
As per WP:FILMOGRAPHY for the notes column: 'This field is to include optional, additional information such as medium, episode titles, alternate titles, or awards – when there is no separate "Awards" section in the given article – and possibly sourcing. This field is to be rendered "unsortable", as it will contain a variety of information that is not likely to be usefully sortable. Do not list the number of episodes if the role is a starring or major recurring role if it is unsourced – if the role does not cover the entire run of a television program, list the seasons involved instead.'

I have seen that you added genres to Meryl Streep's TV filmography but above text does not mention the inclusion of genres like 'Animated Series'. Please stop doing this as this is not necessary. Virin1009 (talk) 17:07, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

Minor and not-so-minor edits
Hello, I'm BlackcurrantTea. I clicked on your contributions out of curiosity, and I noticed you've marked all of your recent edits as minor; yet some I looked at, such as this, this, and this, aren't actually minor. It's an understandable mistake – I often did the same thing when I was starting out here. The Wikipedia definition of minor is different to what most of us expect. I reviewed Help:Minor edit many times, trying to decide if the changes I was making were minor. It helped me to think of a minor edit as a change that a reader is unlikely to notice (unless it's reverting obvious vandalism: this also counts as minor). Maybe it fixes a typo, or corrects the format of a reference without adding any new information. It doesn't change or add anything very noticeable to the page, and other editors are unlikely to dispute it. I hope this helps. If you have any questions, you can reply to me here; I'll keep your talk page on my watchlist for a bit. Happy editing! BlackcurrantTea (talk) 20:13, 29 June 2020 (UTC) Oh, thank you! I didn't realise that adding some facts its not minor edit. Sorry for bothering you by this.

You are invited to join WikiProject Adele!

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:American Music Award for Favorite Pop/Rock Album


A tag has been placed on Category:American Music Award for Favorite Pop/Rock Album requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion.

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 deleted without delay.

Your contributed article, Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer BAFTA Award winners


Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer BAFTA Award winners. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – BAFTA Award for Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at BAFTA Award for Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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 deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Fram (talk) 07:01, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Edit summaries
Hello Diopic. I have noticed that you often edit without using a complete edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field accurately. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Llll5032 (talk) 02:18, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
