Cretan Revolt (1897–1898)
Hi - I have moved this article to draftspace as it currently has no inline references at all. Please read WP:V, WP:CITE and WP:RS about referencing your articles. Please also follow the Articles for creation process. Thanks. Dormskirk (talk) 22:40, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at First Libyan Civil War, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. M.Bitton (talk) 17:54, 22 November 2021 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from List of wars involving Sweden into List of wars involving North Korea. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 14:24, 23 November 2021 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in First Libyan Civil War‎, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in First Libyan Civil War. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. FDW777 (talk) 21:36, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

Specifically, keep in mind the purpose of an infobox: to summarize (and not supplant) key facts that appear in the article. FDW777 (talk) 21:48, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

January 2022
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use disruptive, inappropriate or hard-to-read formatting, as you did at Ottoman–Mamluk War (1516–1517), you may be blocked from editing. There is a Wikipedia Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason.

Again, please read, understand and follow MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE. FDW777 (talk) 08:15, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

April 2022
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you make disruptive edits to Wikipedia contrary to the Manual of Style.

I refer you, once again, to MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE. FDW777 (talk) 20:39, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

Can you elaborate for me as to what I did wrong? WarsawBuzzsaw (talk) 21:46, 1 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Here you added various content to the infobox, in particular John Harvey Rainier and Otto von Diederichs. Neither of them are mentioned in the article body, therefore they don't get mentioned in the infobox. Even then, the instructions at Template:Infobox military conflict specify which commanders are included in infoboxes, so simply being mentioned in the article isn't necessarily enough.
