User talk:Kate Butch

A belated welcome!


Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Kate Butch. 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! Xover (talk) 09:18, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

Varieties of English
Welcome to Wikipedia! I've reverted a series of edits you made at Aluminum can because they violated the principle known as WP:ENGVAR. On Wikipedia, unless there is some compelling reason for a topic to be in a particular variety of English, the rule is that we use the variety of English that the page was started under. In the case of aluminum can, it was American English. To change the spelling you'd need to request a formal move of the page, which, however, is unlikely to attract much support.--Ermenrich (talk) 03:08, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

May 2019
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Hamlet; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Xover (talk) 18:34, 8 May 2019 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

"American bias"
Hello,

Please cease removing information from Wikipedia on the basis that it pertains primarily to the United States or North America. Feel free to add information about other parts of the world, but simply stating that something only affects or primarily affects the United States or North America is not a valid reason for removal.--Ermenrich (talk) 14:46, 21 May 2019 (UTC)
