  Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Flag of Serbia. 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. byteflush Talk 22:23, 31 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at Flag of Greece, 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. Dr. K. 23:22, 17 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Himara. 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 be blocked from editing Wikipedia. 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 block. Thank you. Dr. K. 23:24, 17 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. Khirurg (talk) 23:44, 17 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Discretionary sanctions alert for articles and content relating to the Balkans

edit

Hi, I do not have the time to check all of your edits but it seems that at least some of them are not constructive. You should use WP:RS, make your edits in line with WP:NPOV and WP:Discuss if someone else reverts you. Cheers.

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have recently shown interest in the Balkans. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect: any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or any page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Complaint about you on my talk page

edit

Hello Ζάχος77. User:Ktrimi991 left a complaint about you on my talk page. When I checked your contributions I happened to notice this removal of over 6,000 bytes at Gjirokastër, with the edit summary "Northern Epirus was a terrorist organisation, never recognised by any sovereign countries)". Large changes to articles in a controversial area should get consensus on the talk page. If you want to avoid attention from administrators it is sufficient to engage in reasonable discussions. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 17:46, 19 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
