The recent edit you made has been reverted, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 20:54, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did to Oromo people, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Please stop changing figures that cite their sources. Gyrofrog (talk) 16:37, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

Copy-paste
Please don't copy and paste information, as you did with Oromo clans, which was copied word-for-word from Barentu (Oromo). Instead, create a redirect. I have redirected it accordingly. Thanks, Airplaneman   ✈  00:24, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content. Blank pages can confuse readers, and are overall not helpful to the Wikipedia project; furthermore, blanking a page is not the same as deleting it.

If the article you blanked is a duplicate of another article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalized, please revert it to the last legitimate revision. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please use the appropriate deletion process. --RrburkeekrubrR 00:31, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Please do not do this, as it is considered vandalism; use the sandbox for testing. If you think the page should be deleted, see this page for instructions. Thank you. --RrburkeekrubrR 00:34, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to Guji Oromo‎. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Gyrofrog (talk) 14:27, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Oromo moieties, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

Article is a duplicate of Borana Oromo

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add  on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. E Wing (talk) 22:41, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

Please stop making test edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Oromo people. It is considered vandalism, which, under Wikipedia policy, can lead to a loss of editing privileges. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Gyrofrog (talk) 23:34, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

This is the final warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did to Oromo people, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. You changed figures that cite their sources, and added other figures without attribution. Gyrofrog (talk) 15:45, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

November 2010
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for your edits to Oromo people. The last Ethiopian census was in 2007, and you've modified the Oromo people article to imply there was one this year. You've been previously warned about changing the figures in that article.. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text below this notice, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Please do not add unsourced content, as you did to Hawiye. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. ''The source you added makes no mention of "Hawiye", and certainly does not include the clan tree you included. There's also no need to delete the exisitng attributed versions. Your edits to Oromo people did not include any sources.'' Gyrofrog (talk) 21:41, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from de:Tana Orma into Orma people. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to make a note in an edit summary at the source page as well. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. An additional issue is that the text appears to have been generated via computer-based translation, and as such it isn't usable. Thank you. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 13:49, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

You seem to be trying to do something useful
Could you spend some time reading the documentation on Wikipedia so you can attract less criticism from other editors? It might also help to tell us something about yourself on your 'User page' (see above). Then we may see that you are a person of goodwill. Wishing you well Greenmaven (talk) 13:33, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
