Talk pages
I noticed you removing a significant amount of content from various article talk pages as per "notforum", but I'm not sure all the removals are correct. If a post has anything to do with the content of the article, it should remain. If the post has been replied to by another user, it should remain. It if is part of an active discussion, you can consider reminding the user of the guidelines, or perhaps hatting, but if it's an older, inactive discussion, then there's really no need. - wolf  19:09, 7 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Based on the guidance provided on WP:NOTAFORUM, I removed those comments which I felt did not adhere to best practices or guidance. If you feel that this was done maliciously or that certain (or all) comments should stay, feel free to revert. -Signaleer (talk) 22:02, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
 * No, I certainly don't think anything was done maliciously. I actually believe you have the project's best interests at heart. That said, I felt that perhaps you were taking somewhat of a narrow or strict interpretation of wp:forum. Some of the comments were indeed related to article content and so I reverted a couple back to the talk page if they were recent, and older ones I just archived. There certainly is some off-topic nonsense that gets posted to talk pages at times and I applaud your effort to clean that up. Happy editing! - wolf  22:17, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

October 2021
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at United States Army Special Forces. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. -  wolf  12:45, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please 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, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Edit warring notification
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on United States Army Special Forces. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. -  wolf  19:44, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

Proposed deletion of File:Caravaggio Nativity.jpg


The file File:Caravaggio Nativity.jpg has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Unused. Superseded by files at c:Category:Nativity with St. Francis and St. Lawrence by Caravaggio."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. --Minorax &laquo;&brvbar;talk&brvbar;&raquo; 05:33, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

Correction to previous election announcement
Just a quick correction to the prior message about the 2022 MILHIST coordinator election! I didn't proofread the message well enough and left out a link to the election page itself in this message. The voting will occur here; sorry about the need for a second message and the inadvertent omission from the prior one. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 17:42, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
