Hello, I'm AntiDionysius. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Steven Otis, 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. AntiDionysius ( talk ) 14:15, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Hi OtisSAssembly! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Steven Otis several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree&#32;at, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. &#126; ToBeFree (talk) 21:12, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Hello, OtisSAssembly, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as. Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 04:09, 13 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi! CapitalDenizen here. I’m not the same person as OtisSAssembly. I’m just an Albany NY based policy wink who’s started going through locally relevant pages to beef them up. CapitalDenizen (talk) 16:14, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I started with this page because I saw recent activity on it. A few others I attempted to work on were locked so I needed to find some that weren’t to start with! CapitalDenizen (talk) 16:17, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
