Neal Adams
Hi, Mothdust79. I understand you're new to Wikipedia, but since you have reverted an edit that explained you were violating a policy, I need to draw your attention to one of the most important, indeed critically important, Wikipedia tenets: WP:VERIFY. We can't just add anything we want: Everything needs to have a reliable-source citation. We cannot add things based on personal knowledge &mdash; that's considered original research and is another major violation of policy, since everything here has to be sourced to something that someone else can look up to independently confirm. By reverting other editors' edits without discussion, you're engaging in edit-warring, and no one wants that.

Fortunately, we're a community here, and everyone is willing to discuss just about anything aimed at improving articles and making Wikipedia better. Just post your concerns at Talk:Neal Adams. Thanks, and happy Wiki'ing! --Tenebrae (talk) 13:40, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits. The next time you violate Wikipedia's No Original Research, Verifiability or Reliable Sources policies by adding unsourced material to articles, as you did with this edit to Neal Adams (which is the third time you've violated these policies in that article following these two edits:, ) you will be blocked from editing. Please do not make that necessary. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any other questions about editing, or need help regarding the site's policies, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to How the Grinch Stole Christmas! with this edit, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Macy Gray. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you.--Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 03:35, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

I reverted your edits on Hernán Cortés. Please do not change the spelling again - there is a comment at the top of the article requesting that the spelling not be changed. Tarl.Neustaedter (talk) 07:33, 7 March 2012 (UTC)


 * I backed out yet another edit you just made from Hernán Cortés. Please stop, the spelling is Cortés, not Cortez. Tarl.Neustaedter (talk) 06:26, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 7
Hi. When you recently edited Spree killer, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Colin Ferguson (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Death to False Metal, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Patrick Wilson (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Ted Nugent. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. ''Calling a living person "gay" without a proper citation is a big violation of our policy on living persons. '' ~Adjwilley (talk) 13:33, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Mormons, you may be blocked from editing. ~Adjwilley (talk) 13:33, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 3 weeks for abuse of editing privileges. 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. – Connormah (talk) 13:58, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Mkdw. I removed an edit that you recently made to Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting that seemed to be a test. If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to do so. 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. Mkdw talk 07:07, 16 December 2012 (UTC)

Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia pages, such as those you made to Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, even if you intend to fix them later. Your edits do not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Mkdw talk 07:19, 16 December 2012 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, you may be blocked from editing. Mkdw talk 07:21, 16 December 2012 (UTC)

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Mel Gibson. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. RashersTierney (talk) 11:07, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Only warning
It appears that despite the messages above and your previous blocks you still do not understand that many of your edits are disruptive and unacceptable. You are still adding and changing information in articles without providing sources for verification, and the egregious BLP violations you made at Mel Gibson today are the final straw. If you cannot find a way to abide by Wikipedia policy you will be blocked again. The way forward is simple - state your sources, don't make claims based on your own personal opinion, use the article talk page to discuss potentially controversial edits, and address the concerns raise by other editors. --Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 17:43, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
 * This is getting silly. Mothdust79 should know better by now. ~Adjwilley (talk) 19:46, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges. 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. Vsmith (talk) 20:11, 31 January 2013 (UTC)


 * You need to actually provide a reason why you should be unblocked. I also suggest reading the guide Vsmith linked to above. ~Adjwilley (talk) 03:57, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
