Hello, I'm A guy saved by Jesus. Your recent edit to the page Antonin Scalia appears to have added incorrect information, so I have removed it for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. 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. A guy saved by Jesus (talk) 02:25, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Antonin Scalia. 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 the sandbox. Thank you. A guy saved by Jesus (talk) 02:40, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

Regarding your comment on my talk page, President Obama has nominated Merrick Garland to be the next Supreme Court Justice, but that does not automatically mean that Garland will succeed Scalia. Congress still has to vote to confirm Garland at some point, which isn't guaranteed to happen. Please do not continue to add him as Scalia's successor until it is a certainty that he will be. --A guy saved by Jesus (talk) 03:00, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

To enforce an arbitration decision and for your violation of the page restrictions already in place on the page Donald Trump, you have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours. You are welcome to edit once the block expires; however, please note that the repetition of similar behavior may result in a longer block or other sanctions. If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page:. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page. &mdash; Coffee //  have a cup  //  beans  // 05:54, 5 May 2016 (UTC)  Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at User:Spark1498. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. ''What part of "do not upload unfree/copyrighted images" do you not understand? Images created by state governments excluding Massachusetts, California, Florida, DC, and Arkansas are copyrighted unless stated otherwise. You have been blocked on Commons and have been warned about this multiple times. '' MB298 (talk) 00:34, 1 October 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for November 7
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Tom Wolf, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Fetterman ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Tom_Wolf check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Tom_Wolf?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. Thanks! &#123;{u&#124; Sdkb  }&#125;  talk 19:06, 20 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi Spark1498! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor&#32;at Donald Trump that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. &#123;{u&#124; Sdkb  }&#125;  talk 22:42, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
