Please stop your disruptive editing. Your edits have been reverted or removed. Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. ''You are constantly using unreliable sources, and ones that often don't reflect your edits. Please read WP:NPOV. Luke no 94  (tell Luke off here)'' 21:50, 25 January 2014 (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. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
 * 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.

Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page.''You've been removing several long-standing citations, as well as sourced content, apparently in an attempt to promote the Bible. However, you've also made some constructive contributions as well. Please don't remove references from reliable sources unless there is a reason to do so. And certainly don't remove extremely well-sourced content from articles, so as to promote a singular POV.'' Quinto Simmaco (talk) 11:08, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

Jurgen klopp
Hey, just wanted to let you know that Jurgen Klopp was a Liverpool FC fan since he was a kid. I hope you add that to his wiki page. He will also be announced as Liverpool FC manager within hours. Various newspaper reporting it. I hope you take it into account. Here's one from twitter. Saki is one of the very few who give genuine news about LFC.

Saki ‏@Saki_LFC  17m17 minutes ago I kept that one for the day of Klopp's announcement, so it's time! Jürgen Klopp, has supported Liverpool all his life #Kloppo Arsad Barlaskar (talk) 07:25, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I'm NottNott. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Aaron Rodgers with this edit, without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.  Nott Nott  talk &#124;contrib 23:35, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

Museum of the Bible in DC
I removed the photo because the museum is but a few months old and has yet to attain the stature and importance of many others in the District, whether public or private. It doesn't need the promotional help and even if it did, the Wikipedia article isn't the place for it. Lincoln Memorial, Smithsonian Castle, Kennedy Center and - Museum of the Bible? It's too soon. Thanks. JohnInDC (talk) 22:29, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

Help on Criticism of the Catholic Church
Was wondering if you could help over at Criticism of the Catholic Church. An editor came in today and removed over 100,000 characters or whatever it is in one day, both well-referenced material and the more stub-like sections alike.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 01:02, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Martin Luther College logo.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Martin Luther College logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:40, 10 July 2019 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Friendswood, Texas. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Monty Mole Mario Kart Tour.jpeg
Thank you for uploading File:Monty Mole Mario Kart Tour.jpeg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 23:55, 26 June 2020 (UTC)

Advocacy or COI?
I have reverted your edit to the Liberty Hill, Texas article. If you continue to add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia may be blocked from editing. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings.

This is not the first time you've made such edits. You were previously advised about Wikipedia policy on this matter by @Drmies in 2020. As such, I want to ask if this is advocacy or a conflict of interest.

If you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the edit COI template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see );
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see );
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.Thank you for your constructive contributions to Wikipedia.
