Hello, I noticed that you may have recently made edits to MonsterVerse while logged out. Making edits while logged out reveals your IP address, which may allow others to determine your location and identity. Wikipedia's policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow the use of both an account and an IP address by the same person in the same setting. If this was not your intention, please remember to log in when editing. As 2600:6C44:C7F:F204:712C:B975:7D3D:9DC1 JesseRafe (talk) 16:02, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

I noticed your recent edit to MonsterVerse 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. ''#1, please use descriptive edit summaries for every edit you are making. #2, please use the preview function or your own sandbox for experiments and not a bunch of edits in a row for an unfilled chart'' JesseRafe (talk) 16:37, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

Hello. I wanted to let you know that your recent edit(s) to the Terminator Salvation plot summary have been removed because they added a significant amount of unnecessary detail. Please avoid excessive detail and high word counts when editing plot summaries/synopses. You may read the plot summary edit guides to learn more about contributing constructively to plot summaries/synopses. There are also specific guidelines for films, musicals, television episodes, anime/manga, novels and non-fiction books. 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! DonIago (talk) 05:13, 10 February 2018 (UTC)

Character table for MonsterVerse
It seems you have your heart set out on putting a character chart on the MonsterVerse article. I understand what you're trying to do but it seems a bit necessary, given since the series is about the monsters and not the humans, but if you feel like you have a case for this, it would be best to bring it up on the MonsterVerse talk page so it can be discussed with other editors to see if it's notable and necessary to add or keep in the article. Armegon (talk) 06:38, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Character table for MonsterVerse 2
I see you restored your character chart again. I've taken the liberty of removing it once again because you did not bring its notability to the talk page like I've asked you to many times before. For your sake, I urge you to please head to the MonsterVerse talk page & discuss it with the other editors as to why the chart is necessary. I and another editor have already undone your chart quite a number of times, I already left a message on your own talk page asking you to take the issue to the talk page. This is now my 2nd message for you to take the issue to the talk page. With that said... If you restore the chart again without consensus, it would be considered vandalism by this point and I would have to bring this issue up on the dispute resolution noticeboard.

Hello. I wanted to let you know that your recent edit(s) to the Jurassic Park (film) plot summary have been removed because they added a significant amount of unnecessary detail. Please avoid excessive detail and high word counts when editing plot summaries/synopses.

Speedy deletion nomination of Watsonian date


A tag has been placed on Watsonian date requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time.

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. 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. – NJD-DE (talk) 19:09, 19 September 2021 (UTC)

Watsonian date moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Watsonian date, is not suitable 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. Liz Read!

 * Hello, Gavinmccalmont,
 * Rather than delete this page, I moved it to Draft space. If you move it back without supplying some reliable sources validating the concept, it will be deleted. Liz Read! Talk! 03:11, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, The Last Stand (2013 film), but you didn't provide a reliable source.
