  Hello, I'm JPxG. I noticed that in this edit to Songs from the Big Chair, you removed content without adequately 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. Thank you. jp×g 04:49, 8 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

My edit summary said "unsourced". Thought that was clear. I've tagged the section instead. 74.67.6.88 (talk) 04:54, 8 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Songs from the Big Chair has been reverted.
Your edit here to Songs from the Big Chair was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links in references which are discouraged per our reliable sources guideline. The reference(s) you added or changed (https://www.discogs.com/release/493063-Tears-For-Fears-Songs-From-The-Big-Chair) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 05:20, 8 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, please ignore this notice.

  Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Jamake Highwater—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. Materialscientist (talk) 18:42, 18 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Materialscientist, what was your concern with that edit? And why did you revert all the other edits I made instead of just that one? I did a lot of good cleanup work on this article. Please don't just wipe it all away--especially without giving a reason. 74.67.6.88 (talk) 18:46, 18 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Fragrant Peony.

No, Fragrant Peony, those pictures should come out. They push the infobox way down the page and leave a bunch of unnecessary white space. 74.67.6.88 (talk) 22:18, 4 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

You can always edit their positions, deleting them all for no reason isn't constructive. Fragrant Peony (talk) 22:19, 4 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

I gave a reason. 74.67.6.88 (talk) 02:48, 5 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Ward Churchill, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. Yuchitown (talk) 17:57, 20 November 2021 (UTC)YuchitownReply

Yuchitown, I have reinserted some of the edits and added more detailed edit summaries. All of the edits were constructive. 74.67.6.88 (talk) 20:23, 20 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hello there. I have posted an answer to the recent "Administrator intervention against vandalism" report about you. Here is a link to my post: [1]. Not all of us are against you. JBW (talk) 11:56, 24 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Thank you very much, JBW. I really appreciate it. You just made my morning! And FYI, I am backing off on the edit disputes as well. 74.67.6.88 (talk) 12:15, 24 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Sea Cow. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Eric Bazilian, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please 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. Sea Cow (talk) 02:15, 17 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Sea Cow, please take a closer look. By my count, I've added about a dozen sources to the article today. I think there were only four or five sources cited in the article before I started working on it. You are off base here. 74.67.6.88 (talk) 02:20, 17 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hello, I reverted your edits based on the edit which contained the "reinstate text" edit summary. If you are going to add something to the English Wikipedia, please don't just rollover and ask other people to provide a source. Add it yourself with your edit (I'm referring to the CN tag you placed in). Sea Cow (talk) 02:24, 17 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

But you removed much, much more than just that small bit of unsourced material, and that's problematic. Also, the unsourced material you pointed out didn't originate with me. It was placed into the article by another editor and was recently removed (see https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Eric_Bazilian&diff=1066150410&oldid=1066150050). I reinstated it. I think it is significant enough that it belongs here; it just needs a source. 74.67.6.88 (talk) 02:28, 17 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Richard Ravitch. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. Mako001 (C)  (T)  02:40, 23 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Rather than engage in an edit war, which you seem content with doing, I am creating a talk page subject where we can discuss whether the content you are removing really needs to be removed. Remember that Wikipedians use Consensus; you cannot assume ownership of articles. Ludicrous (talk) 20:11, 22 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Excuse me. You are the one who accused me of unconstructive editing and put an uncalled-for warning on my talk page. That's not exactly conducive to dialogue. 74.67.6.88 (talk) 20:26, 22 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Removing content solely because you don't "really care" about it is far from constructive. While you may not care about all of the content in an article, you still need to reach a group consensus before taking such actions. Seeing as you've been warned many times, I think you should reconsider your attitude towards the messages you receive. We all have an opportunity here to improve this wonderful resource and partake in meaningful activity, but if you cannot accept constructive criticism regarding the manner in which you edit, you will not learn to grow as an editor. Ludicrous (talk) 20:34, 22 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

I'm not interested in an edit war, either, especially over something so trivial. I have no problem with seeking consensus, as I just did on the talk page. (Frankly, when I made this rather minor edit, it didn't seem controversial.) In the future, I will simply cite the applicable policy (in this instance, WP:EXCESSDETAIL) in the edit summary rather than stating an opinion, which appears to have ruffled your feathers. Your accusations are not appreciated, and neither is your condescension. 74.67.6.88 (talk) 22:57, 22 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

You have been mentioned here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/SunCrow Snooganssnoogans (talk) 14:40, 5 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

 

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for abusing multiple accounts as a sockpuppet of User:SunCrow per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/SunCrow. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  --Trialpears (talk) 01:16, 6 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

I will copy paste this statement of mine from the SPI:

SunCrow, as you're likely reading this I just wanna say that this is one of the blocks I'm in no way happy to make. You have clearly shown that you can be a productive editor and I've seen many good edits from you. My suggestion here is that you request an unblock on your main account potentially after a bit of a break as that will likely make the unblock request easier. I know that I'm not alone in thinking it would be good to have you back with Mathglot giving you their advice back in March I hope to see you return to productive editing on your original account someday. --Trialpears (talk) 01:17, 6 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
