Inadequate edit summaries
Hello, thanks for writing edit summaries for your edits. However, I must say summaries like "changed word", "fixed grammar" etc. are quite inadequate for the edits you are making. You would need to state the justification for your change, because it is not clear at all why you are making these changes. In some cases, you are changing the sense of what is being conveyed, without any explanation. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 16:13, 26 July 2019 (UTC)

What.
If my summaries are so inadequate why are they offered me to pick from? Norcalangela (talk) 17:46, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
 * You are expected to use good judgment and not go with what is easiest for you.--Quisqualis (talk) 17:02, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

February 2020
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours has an edit summary that appears to be inaccurate or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. Thank you. Doug Weller talk 21:06, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:


 * User contributions
 * Recent changes
 * Watchlists
 * Revision differences
 * IRC channels
 * Related changes
 * New pages list
 * Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting. Thanks! Doug Weller talk 21:06, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

December 2020: Unconstructive editing
'''Your recent "grammar" edits to CERN and Sitting Bull indicate that your estimation of these articles' deficiencies is inadequate. While I cannot comment on your level of expertise overall, I can point out that in a sentence, the subject and verb must agree in number. A singular subject gets a singular verb, even when the subject of the dependent clause is plural. Further to that, it seems that your particular taste in syntax is your own, and not necessarily better than most wording in Wikipedia, and in certain cases, it is worse.''' Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. --Quisqualis (talk) 17:20, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Persistently adjusting Wikipedia to suit your tastes is disruptive. Adding facts without citing sources is disruptive and against the rules. Please stop, and discuss your proposed changes on the relevant talk pages. Your edits all tend to be reverted, and there are clear reasons why.


 * I don't know who you think you are but you do not get to tell me whether or not I can write on Wikipedia Norcalangela (talk) 22:31, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm just another volunteer editor, like you, and I can tell you to stop being a jerk on Wikipedia, as others have done above on your talk page. And I can report you to WP:Administrator intervention against vandalism, which someone could and ought to have done after you made this edit. Admins don't block people as punishment; they only do so to protect Wikipedia, which so far you have proved not competent to edit. Wikipedia has the Teahouse, which you can visit and explain your problem and the Help desk, where you can also ask for advice. How you managed to ignore your talk page for a year and not ask any questions is one of the mysteries of Wikipedia. It would have been nice if one of the welcoming committee volunteers had placed a welcome message on this talk page with vital links to policies, rules and procedures for you to read. I'll put one on this page soon. -Quisqualis (talk) 04:48, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

December 2020: On further inspection, your editing is not good for Wikipedia
'''You are clearly not here to make an encyclopedia, but rather to amuse yourself. Your edit summaries have been almost universally untruthful and your edits are being reverted as I type this.'''

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia. --Quisqualis (talk) 21:01, 19 December 2020 (UTC)


 * when you write, your editing is not good oh, that's improper grammar. When somebody with authority tells me I'm done on Wikipedia I'll be happy to leave. Norcalangela (talk) 22:30, 19 December 2020 (UTC)


 * As soon as you make another edit to an article, even a very helpful, constructive edit, "someone in authority" will block your account and make you happy to leave, per the final warning above. Wikipedia is not your playground, not a forum, and not social media.
 * Your "good edit ratio" is about 0.03 (as in, batting .030), when the standard we expect is much higher. I hope you are aware that it takes time and effort on the part of volunteer editors to revert the many useless edits you have made.--Quisqualis (talk) 04:35, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

December 2020
Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to 2020 Ghanaian general election. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use your sandbox. Please do not mislabel your edits—the edit you made was not a "fixed grammar" change. &mdash; UncleBubba ( T @ C ) 05:39, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm PrincessPersnickety. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse. Thanks. Princess Persnickety  (talk)  02:05, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

February 2021: Final Warning regarding unconstructive editing
'''It's obvious that you are using Wikipedia as your play area for idle amusement. I guess putting graffiti on a toilet stall is too much work. Your account is being used to damage Wikipedia and waste the time of volunteer editors.'''

→ You may be You will be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia. --Quisqualis (talk) 03:18, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

March 2021
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at 2021 Atlanta spa shootings, you may be blocked from editing. —Bagumba (talk) 05:01, 23 March 2021 (UTC)

March 2021: Persistent unconstructive editing after warnings
This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. --Quisqualis (talk) 03:30, 29 March 2021 (UTC)

 You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.

 * I have blocked following a report to WP:AIV. Most of your edits have been reverted. It is difficult to understand edits such as this and this, among others. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 04:14, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
