Hello, I'm BilCat. I noticed that you made a change to an article, College Football Playoff National Championship, 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.

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Thursday Night Football. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. oknazevad (talk) 14:02, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at One Magnificent Morning. Digifan23 (talk) 04:26, 31 January 2017 (UTC)

This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at New England Patriots, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. 331dot (talk) 03:03, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Figure It Out. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. AJFU (talk) 22:33, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Ian.thomson (talk) 02:28, 1 March 2017 (UTC)

This user might be a sock puppet of Klbogart55 judging by these edits from two years ago. ACMEWikiNet (talk) 17:13, 1 March 2017 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Hollywood Squares, SEC on CBS, Taco Bell All-Star Legends and Celebrity Softball Game, Verne Lundquist, to name a few, you may be blocked from editing. ACMEWikiNet (talk) 11:57, 3 March 2017 (UTC)

have you tried actually discussing the issue with the user? Templates are not discussing things. And what do you mean by "these edits"? You provided no links. Ian.thomson (talk) 01:17, 4 March 2017 (UTC)'

In the past month, he's been introducing incorrect information. Like in January, "Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Thursday Night Football. ". He keeps doing this. I reverted each edit manually. Can I show the evidence again? I tried discussing with him but to no avail. ACMEWikiNet (talk) 01:28, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
 * You just ignored everything I said as much as Gatorsfan25 ignores your templates. I'm going to be a simple and as blunt as possible: templates are not discussion, address Gatorsfan25 like a human being and explain the situation calmly instead of hunting for a block.  Ian.thomson (talk) 01:32, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Can you give me a headstart? ACMEWikiNet (talk) 01:32, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

Dear Gatorfans25,

Please stop introducing unsourced information to many articles I have reverted. The commentary pairings for sports teams will be announced the summer. Once there is official confirmation of the commentary pairings, it will be uploaded. It must be a valid sourced and verified! Do not predict any future events without providing a valid source. Also, do not introduce of what you did to Steve Harvey as the new host of Hollywood Squares. This is unsourced material. Please PROVIDE a valid source for each article. Failure to violate this rule will result in a warning which may lead to a block. ACMEWikiNet (talk) 01:39, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
 * -_- You're pretty much just rephrasing a combination of templates... That language still sounds like you're hunting for a block instead of trying to encourage the user to do better. Ian.thomson (talk) 01:52, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

A summary of some site policies and guidelines you may find useful

 * "Truth" is not the only criteria for inclusion, verifiability is also required.
 * Always cite a source for any new information. When adding this information to articles, use, containing the name of the source, the author, page number, publisher or web address (if applicable).
 * We do not publish original thought nor original research.
 * Primary sources are usually avoided to prevent original research. Secondary or tertiary sources are preferred for this reason as well.
 * Reliable sources typically include: articles from magazines or newspapers (particularly scholarly journals), or books by recognized authors (basically, books by respected publishers). Online versions of these are usually accepted, provided they're held to the same standards.  User generated sources (like Wikipedia) are to be avoided.  Self-published sources should be avoided except for information by and about the subject that is not self-serving (for example, citing a company's website to establish something like year of establishment).
 * Wikipedia is not a source for Wikipedia. This is intentional.
 * Biographies of persons assumed to be alive are held to especially high standards of verifiability -- all unsourced information may be removed, no matter how plausible.
