  Hello, I'm Skyerise. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added to Worship of heavenly bodies have been removed because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you.

The added infomation is not relevant to the article, as using a lunar calendar is not the same as worshiping the moon. It was added only to promote Islam and the unreliable website you linked from the citation. It is off-topic for the article. Skyerise (talk) 00:29, 8 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

The added information is relevant to the article as there are specific quranic references to the way of counting months and years with reference to the moon calendar. Your objection is invalid as there are several references to the star signs in christianity added preceding this. And Islam has similar references even though (as in Christianity as well) the signs themselves are not divinities, but are linked to worship.
No, it is not. Many societies use lunar calendars. You have not provided a source indicating that the practice involves worship of any heavenly body. Skyerise (talk) 00:35, 8 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop. If you continue to add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did at Worship of heavenly bodies, you 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.

  Your recent edit on the page Worship of heavenly bodies added material which is not related to the subject of the article. Please do not do this as such edits are not constructive. If you like to experiment further, please use the sandbox instead. Thank you. Skyerise (talk) 03:04, 10 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

The fact that other offtopic material is in the article is not a reason to add more offtopic material. I've removed the other offtopic material as well. Perhaps you mean to be editing Astrotheology, which is a different topic? Skyerise (talk) 03:20, 10 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Perhaps you haven't noticed that I've been here for over 17 years and have made over 100,000 edits. You don't know more about Wikipedia rules than I do. I wrote that whole damn article and someone else split it because it covered two topics. It was split badly and material (that I wrote) was left in the article when it shouldn't have been. I can damn well remove my own writing. Go play in your own sandbox. Skyerise (talk) 03:32, 10 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm JimRenge. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Reality in Buddhism, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. JimRenge (talk) 12:57, 19 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Edit warring

edit
 

Your recent editing history at Worship of heavenly bodies shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
