Erroneous threatening message
Hello, I recently checked Wikipeda to find you'd left me a message saying: "Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with Lacey Chabert. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing without further notice".

I can assure you that I have never viewed let alone edited that page. It may be worth noting in future that an IP address is not a reliable way to identify someone online as many users will have dynamic IP addresses and you risk harassing anyone who happens to share their internet service provider. Threatening to block random Wikipedia users from contributing to the site is detrimental to Wikipedia's goals and ethos. Were you to do this to a new Wikipedia user or a computer user with less knowledge about or confidence in using the internet you would be likely to cause a great of distress and alarm. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.185.172.222 (talk) 12:14, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

Bridgit Mendler
Thank you for trying to improve the accuracy of the Bridgit Mendler article by adding a birthdate. However, all information reported on Wikipedia websites must come from a reliable sources. In general, a source is deemed reliable if demonstrates editorial control or is cited by known reliable sources with editorial control. For this reason, fansites are not accepted as references.

February 2011
Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made&#32;to John Roberts (journalist): you may already know about them, but you might find Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit was inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you.


 * Thank you for the template. It is very nice to know. Fourviz (talk) 12:02, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
