  Hello, I'm Peaceray. I noticed that you recently removed content from The Stand without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at The Whistler (1944 film). 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. Οἶδα (talk) 03:52, 27 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at Bug (1975 film), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Οἶδα (talk) 03:53, 27 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at The Houston Story, you may be blocked from editing. Οἶδα (talk) 03:57, 27 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at The Busy Body (film). Οἶδα (talk) 04:00, 27 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Hi 65.102.188.122! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Dracula (1931 English-language film) several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:Dracula (1931 English-language film), please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Belbury (talk) 20:56, 27 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello! I notice that you've made a few edits to Big Fish without providing an edit summary. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with edit summaries and why they are important. In the future, please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. Wafflewombat (talk) 03:46, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

@65.102.188.122: A lot of your edits have been reverted. It does not matter if your edits were correct. Wikipedia requires collaboration and if your changes are reverted, you must discuss the issue on article talk. Edit warring (repeating your edits) is not permitted. You are only blocked from changing articles at the moment. Please start discussing your proposed changes. You should also respond at the above link (search for "65.102.188.122").

@65.102.188.122: Can you please explain the rationale behind your most recent edits? These include modifying sortkeys to transfer leading articles to the start of keys. This disregards the guideline at WP:SORTKEY, which states to place the articles 'a, an, and the' to the end of keys. You have also continued removing certain external links template such as {{Metacritic film}} or {{Rotten Tomatoes}}. Would you like to explain the reasoning behind that? You have also removed Commons category templates, which create boxes that direct readers to Commons when there exists freely-licensed files relating to an article's subject. These are considered helpful as they provide easy interwiki navigation to content that is ostensibly of interest to readers. You have also continuously restored your desired poster version at Dracula (1931 English-language film). Would you care to explain that? And when you inexplicably remove proper spacing and alter quotation marks in violation of WP:LQ such as [1], what possible reason is behind it? Now that I have caught and begun reverting your edits in real time you have responded by edit warring to restore your desired version. I went through your entire edit history to repair all of the articles affected by your unexplained motivations. It was frankly an exhausting and bewildering task. You have tenacity, I will give you that. Your edits are certainly not egregious vandalism but they are disruptive and very specific. Presumably you believe you are helping improve the Wikipedia project in your edits. So I would love to hear your justification of them. Οἶδα (talk) 04:07, 29 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Communication is required

edit

@65.102.188.122: Other editors disagree with many of your changes and it is necessary for you to either respond to their concerns or to avoid repeating similar changes. See Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Persistent disruptive edits by 65.102.188.122 (permalink). Any administrator is welcome to unblock without consulting me once you start engaging in discussion and either show that the concerns of other editors are misplaced, or that you will not repeat similar changes. You can appeal this block by following the procedures at WP:GAB and posting {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} here. Johnuniq (talk) 21:33, 3 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
