bad practices
> deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:David Futrelle, is considered bad practice

the whole page is gone now so apparently others agree the comments there were not legitimate — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:1C2:1901:C008:216:B6FF:FE58:88BA (talk) 05:40, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi there! Still, deleting other user's comments is considered bad practice per WP:TPO. Changing other people's comment can be seen as intrusive to the user who commented on the talk page.  - I Need  Support  -  (not really) 13:15, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

reversed edits
You deleted my contributions to the birth/death dates of several individuals on the Wiki calendar, stating I need verification ; the articles themselves are verification! Talk to the people who created the articles if you want verifications! I merely posted the vital dates of those people b/c they weren't in the calendars! Won't make THAT mistake again! 2605:E000:121C:8B69:69AF:1E1:35EA:AED5 (talk) 03:23, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi there! Perhaps I should’ve said this earlier, but articles are not sufficient enough for verification due to a relatively recent change in WP:DOYSTYLE. I once thought adding articles was enough, but I soon got a warning about that.  - I Need  Support  -  (Time for Christmas!) 04:01, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi. From DOY "Only the births and deaths of people who are themselves subjects of Wikipedia articles should be listed", which is what I did. As I said, verification is up to those who published the articles; I don't have the inclination to verify their sources, just to contribute to a DOY. I was including people w/Wiki articles w/o DOY entries into DOY as a courtesy to users. 2605:E000:121C:8B69:69AF:1E1:35EA:AED5 (talk) 05:16, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
 * It is true that WP:DOY states that. However, if you read what is below it, it emotions that any materials lacking a reliable source shall be subject for removal.  - I Need  Support  -  (Time for Christmas!) 05:33, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

Your signature
Please see WP:Appearance and color, which says to avoid markup that enlarges the font size of your sig. If you're doing this to highlight your own posts and make them easier to find, you can use a gadget or custom CSS to do so. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 23:57, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Andy Dingley (talk) 18:20, 12 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi there! I do understand that censoring comments is considered bad practice. However, personal attacks are not allowed at all per WP:NPA. That, along with WP:RPA, is why I have to remove it on the edit warring page. You can also refer to the discussion on my talk page called 201.190.106.121, where I'd been warned not to allow any personal attacks at all. - I Need Support - :3 18:31, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

Ballet
Hi, please do not put back the Kitri jump image, it is the "Kitri jump", it exists in classical ballet. It is just a classical jump plus a back bend. Just google Kitri jump and you will see for yourself, I am not making bad edits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Karkanxholl (talk • contribs) 03:12, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi there! I'll leave it for now, however someone else might undo you edits due to WP:FRINGE. I don't think you're a bad editor. If I did, then I would've given you warnings on your talk page. By the way, next time you make a comment, please add four tildes ( ~ ) next to your comment. Cheers! - I Need Support - :3 03:18, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Ok, I will read WP:FRINGE, thank you. This is from one of the full length classical ballets, so I don't think it will be a problem for the regular editors of the article, they will be familiar with it. It is a standard step today and has been since Maya Plisetskaya performed it so it would be a bit like arguing about when did it become classical ballet ...

Recent close at ANI.
FYI, it's bad practice to close noticeboard discussions that you've participated in, doubley so if you made the original complaint, tripling it if you're not an admin. (BTW, neither am I). That one was a slam dunk, but still not a good idea. Just a friendly tip from another editor...not a warning in any way. John from Idegon (talk) 07:30, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Lippert Components


Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice that the page you created, Lippert Components, was tagged as a test page under section G2 of the criteria for speedy deletion and has been or soon may be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSA talk   18:24, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

Lippert Components moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Lippert Components, does not have enough sources and citations 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. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSA talk   18:27, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

ERG
Just FYI, I am fine with your edit here if you think it is an better reflection of the facts/sources. My sole aim for this reversion was removing the obvious vandalism, and not meant as a determination of the exact wording that should be used in the article. Happy editing! Abecedare (talk) 16:38, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Got it. Thanks!  I Need Support  :3 16:39, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
 * In fact, I just realized that the first sentence of the version I reverted to is not even complete. Can you take a look? Abecedare (talk) 16:40, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the first sentence was vandalized. Looks like the last clean version was this, to which I reverted back to that version. I Need Support  :3 16:45, 14 March 2019 (UTC) Actually, looking back at other edits, the first sentence remains the same.  I Need Support   :3 16:48, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

Replacement of an image for a Wikipedia page
Hello there! I'm so sorry, you might remember a few minutes ago the image of Tina Desai disappeared! It was a mistake from me before making this account and I was worried sick! Thank you for fixing it. However, is there any way to replace the image? Tina Desai has new images so can u replace the present one? Thanks Biggesthalseyfan (talk) 17:14, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi there! Welcome to Wikipedia! There is a way to replace the image. I recommend you to head to WP:IMAGES. There, you will see several tutorials on how to upload an image and how to put it in an article. It may take a while to master it, but you will do fine at it. Have a good day!

 * Thanks for the review! Unfortunately, I don't really have time to discuss the sources today. Perhaps another time would be best.  I Need Support  :3 02:27, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * That's fine. I find it hard to commit to a future time, but I'll be happy to help if you can catch me. I'm a Northern Indiana kid by birth long ago (I lived in Hobart, Indiana and the grands lived on Lake Beaver Dam near Warsaw.). One thing: take a look at your "cite news" templates. The "work" parameter should be the name of the associated newspaper, not the website. If the locale isn't well known, also fill in the "location" parameter with the wikilinked title of the article on the settlement where the paper is published. The "agency" parameter should be used if the story came from a source external to the paper such as AP, BBC, UPI, Reuters, TASS, etc. The publisher is the corporate name at the bottom of the website. The "date" parameter is filled in with the date of the article and should never be omitted. Neither should the author. If the article isn't bylined, fill in the very first "last name" parameter with "staff" and omit all the others. Thanks. John from Idegon (talk) 02:48, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

My edits are balanced and use a wide variety of reputable even primary sources. No one has questioned their accuracy. Please refrain from your edit warring. WP:EW  If you have specifics take then to the talk page of the article. If I haven't heard from you after a reasonable length of time I'll assume you no longer object. 67.177.112.196 (talk) 04:10, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi there! Although you may think your edits are right, adding it all back is also considered edit warring. You mention WP:EW, but it clearly mentions that even that you’re right, you should not edit war, or in fact violate the three revert rule. I only made one revert. I see that you used the talk page, which is good. Try not to add the information back until consensus is reached. Cheers!  I Need Support  :3 13:52, 26 April 2019 (UTC)

We Beat the Street
Why did you tag the above article as an WP:CSD?--Bbb23 (talk) 22:24, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I thought that it meet that criteria because the article lacks the sources it needed and plus it's been a stub for over a decade. Perhaps it doesn't meet that criteria based on you messaging me that.  I Need Support   :3 22:31, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
 * It doesn't come close to meeting A1. Lacking context means an article like (always new, too, btw, although that's not required):
 * Title: Jeffrey Jones
 * Content: Ten employees in the company.
 * In other words, the reader has no idea what the article is about. The article you tagged is obviously about a book. You'll never find a years-old article meeting A1.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:38, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

Activity on 'Bus spotting' article
Hi there, I would like to inform you that I have been trying relentlessly to revert the edits, which are seen as vandalism by the user Exposemarvin, who in real life is known as.

There has been continued activity on the page by him, where he amended the content with a poor command of the English language as well as being overly biased in his entry.

I have since filed for a Full-protection on the page with ANI, pending response. NatIsrael972 (talk) 12:40, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Eh. I thought you were a sock of the vandalism account because of your edit summary, but apparently you're not based on your editing behavior. Sorry about that. Thanks for your anti-vandalism effort!. I don't think a full-protection is necessary because there was only one account that was making bad edits, and the user is currently indefinitely blocked. Cheers!  I Need Support  :3 12:49, 15 May 2019 (UTC)

 * Hi there! I don't know what you did since your edit was deleted, which makes me unable to see it. Looks like your edit was reverted because you copy and pasted information from another article without giving credit. If that's the case, then that's a copyright violation and it has to be removed. If you want to learn how to insert a citation, I recommend going to WP:REFSTART. I recommend going to WP:TEAHOUSE if you want any help, since they offer help better than me. Cheers!

 * Hi there! I only reverted your edits once (although it has 3 edits in it). There were other users involved as well. The revision I reverted does not have any citations at that time, thus I have to remove it due to being unsourced.

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

I went for "restore this version" rather than a revert, because your revert was correct but a previous IP edit before your revert was still pending and also needed to go away. Schazjmd  (talk)  18:49, 12 January 2020 (UTC)

Warnings for IvanPlayyz13
I think the second warning for User:IvanPlayyz13 may have been a little harsh. From their editing history, they may not have seen your first warning by the time you posted the second. Most of the edits appear to be based on Force Thirteen's intensity assessments or a misinterpretation of forecasts for Hurricane Laura as the actual intensity, so I think they are in good faith.
