Please do not add or change content, as you did to Paloma Faith, without verifying it by citing reliable sources. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. - JuneGloom    Talk  01:24, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Paloma Faith. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Also, please stop changing her name throughout the article and read WP:SURNAME and please don't remove content. - JuneGloom    Talk  19:38, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Paloma Faith, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.  Rain  the 1  21:46, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

I cannot believe this nonsense. Paloma Faith Blomfield was born in 1981, no question. How can you doubt her Birth Certificate? And her surname is not Faith, it's Blomfield. She performs under her first two names, Paloma Faith, but it is absurd to refer to her as "Faith", which is only her middle name and NOT her surname. I have reported you (JuneGloom) to Wikipedia and asked them to have a word with you about continually changing truth into fiction.

You have been blocked from editing for a period of three days for edit warring and making unsourced changes to an article about a living person. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. JohnCD (talk) 00:08, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Changes to WP:biographies of living persons must be supported by references to reliable published sources. In regard to referring to her as "Faith", read WP:COMMONNAME. JohnCD (talk) 00:14, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

Your recent edits
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or  located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 21:55, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

Notice of Dispute resolution discussion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute in which you may have been involved. Content disputes can hold up article development, therefore we are requesting your participation to help find a resolution. The thread is "Talk:Paloma Faith#Age". {| style="border: 0; width: 100%;"
 * style="width: 50%; vertical-align: top;" |
 * style="width: 50%; vertical-align: top;" |

If you wish to open a DR/N filing, click the "Request dispute resolution" button below this guide or go to Dispute resolution noticeboard/request for an easy to follow, step by step request form.

What this noticeboard is:


 * It is an early step to resolve content disputes after talk page discussions have stalled. If it's something we can't help you with, or is too complex to resolve here, our volunteers will point you in the right direction.

What this noticeboard is not:


 * It is not a place to deal with the behavior of other editors. We deal with disputes about article content, not disputes about user conduct.
 * It is not a place to discuss disputes that are already under discussion at other dispute resolution forums.
 * It is not a substitute for the talk pages: the dispute must have been discussed extensively on a talk page (not just through edit summaries) before resorting to DRN.
 * It is not a court with judges or arbitrators that issue binding decisions: we focus on resolving disputes through consensus, compromise, and explanation of policy.

Things to remember:


 * Discussions should be civil, calm, concise, neutral, and objective. Comment only about the article's content, not the other editors.   Participants who go off-topic or become uncivil may be asked to leave the discussion.
 * Let the other editors know about the discussion by posting {{subst:drn-notice}} on their user talk page.
 * Sign and date your posts with four tildes " ".
 * If you ever need any help, ask one of our volunteers, who will help you as best as they can. You may also wish to read through the FAQ page located here and on the DR/N talkpage.

Please take a moment to review the simple guide and join the discussion. Thank you! EarwigBot   operator  /  talk 00:57, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Egghead06. I noticed that you made one or more changes to an article, Imelda May, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Egghead06 (talk) 11:55, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

It's quite obvious. I got that information from the Wikipedia entry for her husband. You can be too clever .....

If you don't want readers to benefit from all the available information, that's up to you.

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Imelda May, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Egghead06 (talk) 01:40, 5 October 2018 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Sciencefish. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Andy Kershaw, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Sciencefish (talk) 07:50, 6 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Edgware, did not appear to be constructive and have 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. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your 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. Thank you. Sciencefish (talk) 07:51, 6 August 2022 (UTC)


 * I live in Edgware, and I have done for 42 years. The signs at both ends of my road, Redhill Drive, HA8 5JN, both say "London Borough of Brent" and I have paid them my council tax since 1981. If I don't live in Brent, I want a refund. If you have some objection to Wikipedia publishing accurate information, then please be my guest and continue to say that Edgware is only in Barnet and Harrow.
