Hello, I'm Meters. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Bobby Smith (footballer, born 1933) seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. And please read WP:MINOR Meters (talk) 02:30, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Cliff Jones (Welsh footballer). Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. ''Stop making these unsourced POV edits. And stop calling them minor edits'' Meters (talk) 02:33, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at 1961–62 European Cup, you may be blocked from editing. Meters (talk) 02:37, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by inserting commentary or your personal analysis into an article. ''Bump to level 4. Almost nothing but unsourced POV edits.'' Meters (talk) 02:39, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Your edit to Ferenc Puskás is not a minor edit. Meters (talk) 02:40, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * You cannot make unsourced statements such as "He is widely regarded one of greatest strikers of all time." Wikipedia does not make statements such as that for itself. We report what reliable sources say. If you have reliable sources that make statements such as that then add the sources Otherwise this is just you adding your opinion. The next such edit gets you put up for a block. Meters (talk) 02:47, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

lol I didn’t add anything about puskas being the greatest of all time Footballfan12335467 (talk) 12:28, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Why have I been blocked Footballfan12335467 (talk) 12:49, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Sourcing, POV, etc
Hi - I've blocked this account from editing temporarily. Please take some time to read about our policies such as verifiability and neutral point of view. You can't add content like 'widely regarded as one of the best XXX in the world', that sort of subjective opinion ought to be attributed to some authority on the relevant content. Your enthusiasm is welcome, but if you continue to ignore the advice of others, and to add unsourced content based on your own opinions and observations, you are likely to be blocked for longer periods of time, possibly indefinitely. Thanks Girth Summit  (blether)  12:51, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Ok, I added that to players who I think deserves more attention since it makes it seem like greaves was just a random striker if you look at all the Amazing strikers you’ll see they have the exact same (Van Basten For example) so why can’t that be applied to jimmy greaves who is the top scorer in the English first division with 357 goals why can’t he be regarded as one of the best strikers of all time?

 * I think I already explained that, but I'll try again - we don't use our own judgment to determine how good something/someone is, we refer to reliable, authoritative sources on the subject, and attribute the opinion to them in our prose. If you've added unsourced material of a similar nature elsewhere, it will need to be removed. You might want to add WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS to your reading list - the existence of problematic content in other articles is not a good reason to propagate it across the project - we should be working to remove stuff like that when we come across it, not add it to more articles.

 * Anyone who watched greaves play knew how good he was why could Alan Shearer get that recognition if greaves blows him out the water with goals. Footballfan12335467 (talk) 13:01, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Did you read anything I just wrote? Also, why did you make this series of edits, asserting that Kim Min-jae plays for Tottenham? You didn't cite a source, and I'm not seeing anything confirming this has happened. Girth Summit  (blether)  13:14, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

It’s just a joke lmao, yes I saw what you wrote but how can’t reliable sources know he’s a great? Footballfan12335467 (talk) 13:25, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 'lmao' - seriously? If that's how you're going to address people, I don't feel inclined to discuss this with you. Read the guidelines you've been given and figure it out, but if you continue editing disruptively when the block expires you can expect it to be made indefinite. Girth Summit  (blether)  13:33, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Good I’m glad to stop talking to you you ruined my day, can’t even edit “Jimmy” into his name or calling him a great, Wikipedia really is quite shit then huh Footballfan12335467 (talk) 13:39, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
