A belated welcome!


Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Gfawkes05. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
 * Introduction
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * How to write a great article
 * Editor's index to Wikipedia

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes ( ~ ); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Questions, or place help me on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! Doug Weller talk 13:44, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

Images
I notice you added images to several articles, which you recently uploaded to wikimedia. The articles on Wikimedia are missing significant details; in particular, what the photographs are. Where they were taken, when they were taken, and by whom (presumably you). Please add those details - at least in the case of Otto, you indicate it's a bust, but in the case of Galba you simply say it's a photograph of Galba, which is not correct. Regards, Tarl N.

I have no idea how to do what you are asking. (unsigned) -- —Gfawkes05 (talk • contribs) 11:56, 13 July 2018 (UTC)


 * You created the image of Galba which you added to the article. Since this is your own work, you presumably know what the bust is and where it is located. That needs to be added both to the description on Wikimedia as well as the caption in the Galba article. The image is not of Galba. It's an image of some object which represents Galba, and that needs to be described. Tarl N. ( discuss ) 16:35, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Frederick Douglass, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". ''you changed the meaning. ''  Doug Weller  talk 13:43, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

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! Doug Weller talk 13:44, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the page 3 Percenters has an edit summary that appears to be inaccurate or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. Thank you. Doug Weller talk 22:01, 10 December 2019 (UTC)

Please note these special rules for American politics

 * The version of 3 Percenters article that you have now changed twice was well sourced. Please don't edit war to push your version into the article. Instead, discuss on the article talkpage and try to get consensus for your change. Bishonen &#124; talk 15:49, 11 December 2019 (UTC).

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at 3 Percenters, you may be blocked from editing. Jorm (talk) 16:24, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Your recent editing history at 3 Percenters shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.''Also, your edit is still not a typo fix. Please use appropriate edit summaries. Give a reason for your edit, as per Doug Weller above.'' Bishonen &#124; talk 17:37, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.
