Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to LGBT rights in South Africa, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page.Please do not add links to disambiguation pages. Helen  Online  06:50, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

''If you would like to change the format of all LGBT rights by country articles, please first discuss the matter in a central location such as Wikipedia talk:WikiProject LGBT studies. Links to disambiguation pages should not generally be included in articles.'' Helen  Online  07:05, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

I have started a discussion for you here. Helen  Online  07:19, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

Your changes are disruptive and have all been reverted. Please stop or you will be blocked from editing. Bishonen &#124; talk 23:13, 28 September 2014 (UTC).


 * Why did you adjudge my change disruptive? Did you not see the explanation given? "A "red" X sign is judgmental, bias and opinionated. The article should be neutral and factual". What is disruptive about that? Lagosia &#124; talk 23:22, 28 September 2014 (UTC).


 * You've seen HelenOnline's post above and the discussion here. What's disruptive is to continue to make those changes all over the project without first getting consensus for them. Wait for more people to weigh in at the discussion, please. Bishonen &#124; talk 23:27, 28 September 2014 (UTC).


 * Okay, my bad, I thought it was resolved. Since you are saying I should wait for the contribution of more people, please can you give an indication of how long one needs to wait before one can conclude consensus has been sufficiently reached and then continue the changes? Lagosia &#124; talk 09:56, 29 September 2014 (UTC).


 * Thanks for your reasonable reply. Well, there's no hard and fast rule, but I shouldn't think many people have seen that discussion, and I'd hate to see three people form a consensus about wide-ranging changes. Perhaps interested people are more likely to watch the individual pages than watch the wikiproject. How about putting a note about the issue on a few individual talkpages, say for LGBT rights in Zambia, Uganda and Portugal (I suggest those three to get a range of different people reverting you), with a mention of your changes, your reasons, and the reverts of them, and a link to the centralized discussion? If you make some posts like that and get no response after two-three days, I'd say you can reinstate your changes, preferably with a mention in your edit summaries of the centralized discussion. (P.S., please indent replies in threaded discussions one step at a time by using colons, to make the conversation clearer. You can check edit mode to see how I've done it.)
