Welcome!
The reviewing process has changed and so it is difficult to do anything other than a single revert. Sorry about that, but keep it in mind and try to get discussion etc.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 17:57, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

Baseball
The thing is we already have a main article, Baseball, and also History of Baseball, so any statements about its origin should be in those articles first. Otherwise if someone clicks through they will just be confused. There still seems to be a debate about this, as this book seems to disagree. Get some consensus at those articles first please. Thanks. BTW I couldn't care less about where it was invented, just that our articles are consistent and well sources. We may have to say that there is disagreement if the sources conflict.

 * The articles at Baseball and History of baseball clearly mention its first attestation in England, its links and similarities to rounders and other games in England, and its arrival in America with English settlers and colonists in the English colonies (America was founded by the English). Even if it was invented in the English colonies and not in England itself, it was still done so by Englishmen. Human Taxonomist (talk) 08:16, 1 December 2019 (UTC)

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to English people, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at English people. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Doug Weller talk 07:38, 1 January 2020 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please 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, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

It may not have been your intention, but one of your edits, specifically one that you made on Welsh people, may have introduced material that some consider controversial. Due to this, your latest edit has been reverted. When adding material that may be controversial, it is good practice to first discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them, to gain consensus over whether or not to include the text, phrasing, etc. If you believe that the information you added was correct, please continue with that discussion. Thank you. Gareth Griffith-Jones (contribs) (talk) 13:36, 4 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi Human Taxonomist. I'm sure it was not your intention, but with you have introduced at the very least rudeness if not a personal attack ("he is being obtuse") on another editor. Please be sure to comment on edits not editors ~ subjects not people ~ at all times, most especially when you find yourself in a dispute. I'd suggest that, to be clear that you intended nothing bad, you visit the page and strike out the unpleasantness. Happy days, LindsayHello 14:43, 4 January 2020 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved.

I would've guessed this was Irvine22, tbh. GoodDay (talk) 16:20, 8 January 2020 (UTC) — Berean Hunter   (talk)  23:08, 8 January 2020 (UTC)
 * To GoodDay, and also LindsayH who mentioned Irvine22 in the thread at ANI, this editor is 2500 miles from where Irvine22 was editing and the locations are in different countries. It doesn't make it impossible but it may give you a better frame of reference. This one has edited English people before such as this series of edits. He has been in the same general area for at least five years.
 * Thank for the ping; i've been away from WP for a couple of days and would have missed this. I don't mind if the editor was or was not Irvine ~ i had merely mentioned him as a, sadly accurate, prediction of the route HR was travelling down. Happy days, LindsayHello 07:29, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
