Hello, I'm Discospinster. I noticed that you recently made an edit to Gordon Ramsay that seemed to be a test. Your test worked! 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. Thanks. ... disco spinster   talk  00:57, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. - Please stop repeatedly and deliberately changing the nationality in articles where a consensus has been reached. - David Biddulph (talk) 01:03, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Andy Murray, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. – Connormah (talk) 01:29, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
 * As several others have pointed out, your edits are against long-standing consensus and are considered to be disruptive. Changes like these must be taken up on the talk page with a consensus gained before they are made. – Connormah (talk) 01:30, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I have not been meaning to vandalise Wikipedia only improve on some things when it comes to nationality and were people are from. The reason I have did so is because for a while now its said Irish-British when its mainly British or Scottish when Scotland is part of Britain or the person such as in Andy Murray's case actually played Tennis under the nation Great Britain and has also received an OBE Order of the British Empire and I only thought that British would more refer to Andy Murray than Scottish. Also in Gordon Ramsay's case he was born in Scotland making him Scottish yes, but also British as Scotland is part of Great Britain and also Gordon Ramsay actually moved down to England when he was aged five years old and therefore I felt and still do feel that because his childhood has been in both England and Scotland he should therefore be considered and named British and also Gordon Ramsay also has appeared in and also made British television programs.


 * Hi, thanks for the note. However, your edits are still considered disruptive, especially in the Andy Murray and Gordon Ramsay cases, as there is a consensus to refer to him as Scottish. To get it changed, consensus must be established to do so. Any further edits you, or any others make to change the nationality, ignoring the consensus and hidden messages in the article, stating explicitly not to change it, are considered disruptive and if they continue you may be blocked from editing. Please stop and heed to the concerns that I, as well as a few other editors have outlined, or risk getting blocked. – Connormah (talk) 02:21, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Okay, I would like to thank you and the few other editors for outlining my mistakes and for you coming and telling me about it before I could of potentially got blocked. Also I would just like to ask and make clear with you that it is the Andy Murray and Gordon Ramsay Wikipedia pages were there is consensus' and also I would just like to say that the reason I did not abide by the consensus' was because I was not aware of them and will now be aware of them and abide by them, thanks to you for telling me about them.
 * Hi, please see the archives of Talk:Andy Murray and Talk:Gordon Ramsay respectively. As for your recent postings however, I feel I should point out that it seems that you've misplaced them - they should be on Talk:Mrs. Brown's Boys and Talk:The Pogues respectively, rather than Wikipedia talk:Talk page layout/Sandbox. – Connormah (talk) 03:10, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Warning for breach of 1RR
This is your last warning. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Wayne McCullough, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. ''Your edit was reverted and you should abide by the WP:BRD guideline. If your reverted, then discuss it. You are not discussing and ignoring the fact it already states he is from Northern Ireland - so what need is there for Northern Irish? Your edits constitute edit-warring and are also a possible breach of the 1RR(1 revert per 24 hours) on all articles that can be linked to The Troubles.

Needless repetition of nationality
Owenfighter1000, please read what you're editing, and listen to what other editors are telling you. You're calling Father Ted a "British broadcaster Channel 4 British sitcom", St. Patrick a "British 5th century Romano-British Christian missionary" and Wayne McCullough a "a Northern Irish former professional boxer from Northern Ireland." I get that you think nationality is important, but stating it twice in the same sentence - even twice in the same noun phrase - is ridiculous. --Nicknack009 (talk) 11:51, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Okay, I have read the last few messages on my talk page including your own and I have taken on what you have been telling me. Also from now on, when editing I will only write a nationality or country of origin once in the same sentence and if the nationality or country of origin is already there then I will not write it again. Also yes I do think nationality is important as when you go on a Wikipedia page, or at least for me the first thing that I do is look at the nationality and country of origin at the top. If there is nothing there such as it just says (is an actor (born 12th May 1985) then I find this weird and inaccurate and seek to improve it. I also think it should be there at the top as on most Wikipedia pages the nationality or country of origin is already there at the top and when it is not there then a reader will have to search for the nationality or country of origin when he or she could have seen it straight away at the top in the first few words or sentences. Also I now realise my mistake with Saint Patrick as it already said that he was a Romano-British Christian missionary and that Britain wasn't around at the time he was born and alive it was under Roman control as part of the Roman Empire. Also with Father Ted, many people believe Father Ted is Irish as it has Irish actors in it, although it is really British as it was made by British broadcaster Channel 4 and British independent production company Hat Trick Productions and no Irish production company or broadcaster. Although this I now realise the mistake that I made and am thankful that you pointed it out to me that I put British twice instead of just once at the top, my reason for doing so was pointing out in case the reader was wondering in how Father Ted was British without having to click on Channel 4 first but I now realise it was wrong to do so and should have only put British once. Also with Wayne McCullough I also now realise my mistake as it already said his country of origin Northern Ireland at the top of his Wikipedia page and I didn't need to put Northern Irish.

The Tudors
As you know the fact that its set in England has nothing to do with its production nationality, a point you know as your edit history shows. Please read WP:POV, and WP:TROUBLES. Also WP:EDITWAR would be a good read for a new editor. Murry1975 (talk) 14:44, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Edit warring.
Your recent editing history at Father Ted shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. (This is just a warning of the 3RR system) --Somchai Sun (talk) 20:42, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Qed237. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person   on Lionel Messi, but you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. 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. QED237&#160;(talk) 21:48, 22 November 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Lionel Messi, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. QED237&#160;(talk)</i> 21:48, 22 November 2014 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Steven Gerrard. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. And in any case Gerrard was not in the matchday squad. Mattythewhite (talk) 23:54, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Lionel Messi. Mattythewhite (talk) 13:59, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
