November 2015
Hello, I'm Sir Joseph. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Hanukkah has been undone because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ''As mentioned before, use the talk page. Hannukiah is not the popular term for the hannukah menorah and your continued changing of it can result in your getting blocked.'' Sir Joseph (talk) 21:35, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

Manual of Style
Hi, please take a look at the manual of style and other links before you continue editing. You seem to be having problems with understanding grammar and the usage of commas and when to use them, etc. If you have any problems, please visit the village pump, or the teahouse. I will leave you a more extended welcome. Thank you! Sir Joseph (talk) 21:44, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Menorah (Hanukkah), you may be blocked from editing. You need to stop vandalizing and changing menorah articles. Sir Joseph (talk) 21:45, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Baseball field. ''Please read the manual of style and English grammar rules and utilize the talk page before reverting. You risk being blocked.'' Sir Joseph (talk) 21:47, 1 December 2015 (UTC)


 * In my opinion, either the commas or your em-dashes are good English. But SHOUTING in the Change Summary is not good faith, nor accusing another editor of "trying to undo everything I do."  This is a whole lot of edits about nearly nothing.  Spike-from-NH (talk) 00:07, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Muboshgu. Your recent edit to the page Ken Giles appears to have added premature information about a reported sports transaction, so I have removed it for now. The transaction is based on anonymous sources and/or awaiting an official announcement. If you believe the transaction has been completed, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. 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. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:29, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Jason Heyward, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:56, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Jason Heyward. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:59, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

Philadelphia Phillies
I in Philadelphia Phillies, taking out some redundancy and other wordiness, and documented the reason in the edit comment with the abbreviation "C/e". I introduced no "grammar mistakes or typos", yet you my edit with no explanation. What were your reasons, please? Please me to discuss. --Thnidu (talk) 22:12, 23 December 2015 (UTC)

PS: A quote:
 * Wikipedia:Dispute resolution: Follow the normal protocol (italics added):
 * When you find a passage in an article that is biased or inaccurate, improve it if you can; don't delete salvageable text. For example, if an article appears biased, add balancing material or make the wording more neutral. Include citations for any material you add. If you do not know how to fix a problem, ask for help on the talk page.
 * To help other editors understand the reasoning behind your edits, always explain your changes in the edit summary. If an edit is too complex to explain in an edit summary, or the change is contentious, add a section to the talk page that explains your rationale. Be prepared to justify your changes to other editors on the talk page. If you are reverted, continue to explain yourself; do not start an edit war.

--Thnidu (talk) 23:17, 23 December 2015 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Thnidu (talk) 09:24, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

Colors
What was wrong with the ? These three colors don't always have to be in "patriotic" order. --Thnidu (talk) 19:41, 1 October 2016 (UTC)

I know, I didn't change the order because it's the patriotic order, I did it because white is the team's secondary color. Jordandlee (talk) 22:20, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

Multiple accounts
There are many reasons to have multiple accounts. This is only an issue when you do some of the behavior discussed at WP:SOCK. It also discusses legitimate uses there. If you would like to (you are not required to) WP:ALTACCN explains how you can link your two accounts so others are aware. One final thing I would like to make you aware of is WP:BRD. Basically if someone reverts new content or changes to content you have made then take it to the talk page. Take care.-Serialjoepsycho- (talk) 04:16, 29 December 2015 (UTC)
 * To be clear, you can have numerous accounts and be under no obligation to link them or make it known that both are your accounts. The prohibition is on sock puppet behavior. I assume you know what that is. In short actually did nothing wrong.-Serialjoepsycho- (talk) 06:26, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

MLB edits
Please stop undoing my edits. In particular, please stop reverting my edit to the links to related articles of the Minnesota Twins' article. All I'm trying to do there (at the Twins' article) is hard-code that section. Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 23:55, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

Lourdes Gurriel Jr.
The Blue Jays have not confirmed the signing, per the latest official source. Please wait. Trut-h-urts man (T • C) 18:26, 11 November 2016 (UTC)

Your edits were not enough. We need to use reliable sources, such as this, to add prose to discuss what happened. – Muboshgu (talk) 00:07, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

I don't know where you expect me to put the sources. When players change teams, there is no where to place the source. And are you saying that MLB.com is not reliable? The whole thing you said is really confusing me, sorry. P.S. If this came across as sarcastic or rude, sorry. I can't think of a way to word my statement in a way that does not sound rude.

Why are you creating user pages for other users?
Hi there. Why are you creating user pages for other users? Please respond below, rather than on my talk page. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 04:00, 30 November 2016 (UTC)

That way people can check their recent activity more easily. Plus it's the only way to check on a mobile device, which I usually edit on because I'm always on the go. Is there a problem with me doing that? Should I stop? Jordandlee (talk) 04:20, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your response, yeah, you probably should stop. Editors' user pages are typically considered their own domain (unless their pages are violating other guidelines/policies or the user has violated some of our other policies) so it's not ideal to inflict a user page on people. Many editors don't want to have bluelinked user pages. I for one was happy to have avoided creating a user page for as long as I did. I'm not sure I understand your rationale--Whether or not someone has a user page should have no impact on your ability to check another user's activity easier. I'm looking at some edit histories on a mobile device and I don't see any impact on finding the contribution histories of users with no user pages vs. users with them. I only see a slight delay clicking on a redlinked name, where it takes a second for "redirecting to editor". You might also consider requesting the desktop site through your mobile device, as this might produce an interface you're more familiar with, and one that has more options. And if there's a bug that you think should be fixed, please consider reporting it at WP:VPT. If you have questions or suggestions, they might be able to help direct you to the appropriate forum. Thanks and regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 04:38, 30 November 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Jordandlee/sandbox


Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing hoaxes, such as User:Jordandlee/sandbox, is considered to be vandalism and is prohibited. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia—and then to correct them if possible. If you would like to make test edits, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.

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.
