Hello, I'm Semmendinger. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to The Rivalry (Lehigh–Lafayette) have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the help desk. ''There is no reason to put that template on the page. Please read Template:DISPLAYTITLE to understand its uses.'' S EMMENDINGER  ( talk ) 22:52, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at The Rivalry (Lehigh–Lafayette). Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. S EMMENDINGER  ( talk ) 11:46, 13 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Apologies if I have offended you. Respectfully, placing names in alphabetical order and utilizing most common vernacular seems to be a constructive edit. Please explain why this is considered unconstructive and vandalism. Many thanks. --Onevoiceofreason (talk) 13:35, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
 * You have not offended me - I had to tag it as vandalism after you reverted my edit three times without reading my comments. Please see the talk page of that article concerning the naming convention, it's been a topic of consideration before and Lehigh-Lafayette is the currently accepted version.

 * Glad I didn't offend you. Apologies too for my ignorance with repeated edits. OK, I've read the talk page several times and I see the naming convention discussed in multiple locations. However, I'm not seeing a logical reason as to why Lehigh-Lafayette is the currently accepted version. Can you help me understand? --Onevoiceofreason (talk) 14:43, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
 * I agree that alphabetically the title should be Lafayette-Lehigh, the whole reason for my revisions were that you changed the name with a DISPLAYTITLE template which does not work on that page, and you did it without consulting the talk page first. If you want to start a topic on the talk page about this I'd support it. Don't get me wrong, I don't disagree with what you are trying to do, you were just going about it in the wrong way. If you're going to make that post, you're going to want to reference the general naming convention on the 300 other football rivalry pages in the same category: Category:College football rivalries in the United States.
