March 2015 edit

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page All Souls Church, Unitarian (Washington, D.C.) has been reverted.
Your edit here to All Souls Church, Unitarian (Washington, D.C.) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://youngsoulsatallsouls.wordpress.com/) 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) 18:43, 6 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Massive content deletions of multiple articles edit

In regards to recent edits. I assume you are working in good faith to improve the encyclopedia (WP:AFG). However almost every single edit involved massive deletions of sourced content under the justification of "simplify". Please try to work in such a way that you are not deleting sourced content, and if so please provide a rationale on the talk page as to why this information should not be included in the encyclopedia. Also, consider taking it in smaller steps instead of a single "super edit" which makes collaborative editing difficult for back and forth refinement. As an aside, you might also be interested in this academic study which shows full and open access to information about companies is a 'Good Thing'. Articles about corporations need not simplification rather expansion. -- GreenC 21:56, 8 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

February 2016 edit

  Hello, I'm TheEpTic. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Chesapeake Energy— because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. TheEpTic (talk) 00:09, 28 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

March 2016 edit

  Hello, I'm Omni Flames. I noticed that you recently removed some content from SM Energy without 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; I have restored the removed content. 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.

POV editing in Anadarko Petroleum edit

Your repeated removal of "largest environmental contamination settlement in American history" from the lead section is becoming a problem. -- GreenC 03:06, 5 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

April 2016 edit

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at American Express, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. David J Johnson (talk) 21:04, 15 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

January 2017 edit

  Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Mick Mulvaney, 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. Jim1138 (talk) 01:05, 27 January 2017 (UTC) 50.195.72.217 (talk)Which information doesnt have a source?Reply

  Please do not add or significantly change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did with this edit to Mick Mulvaney. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Jim1138 (talk) 01:08, 27 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

I asked you to start a discussion about your changes to the article, and instead you reinserted them without discussing or gaining consensus. Please self-revert as you are now at 3RR. Let's discuss major changes piece-by-piece on the talk page. Marquardtika (talk) 03:07, 27 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

50.195.72.217 (talk) Not sure what you mean...you asked for me to make the changes piecemeal instead of all at once, which i am doing.....can you tell me which text is causing a problem?

For instance, adding "He has criticized funding of Planned Parenthood, claiming that the organization traffics pieces of dead children" to the lede. This is clearly cherry-picked and violative of WP:SAY and WP:LEAD, making it non-neutral. By making the changes piecemeal, I mean adding one bit of content at a time (and ideally gaining consensus for it first on the talk page, since this is a BLP of a high-profile figure, rather than adding lots of content and sourcing all in one edit, as you have been doing). Marquardtika (talk) 03:18, 27 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

50.195.72.217 (talk)Ok forget what I wrote in the lead - I wont add that back....what about the items in the main article? They were direct quotes.

Let's keep this discussion on the article's talk page so others can see it and participate. Marquardtika (talk) 03:25, 27 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Please register an account edit

The edits made from this IP address are very similar to the edits made from 205.251.68.124 and 205.251.68.92. It therefore appears as if one editor is using multiple IP addresses to edit the same articles. If that is the case, please register and use just one account, per Wikipedia:Sock puppetry.

January 2017 edit

 
Anonymous users from this IP address have been blocked indefinitely from editing for undisclosed paid editing in violation of the Terms of Use. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Huon (talk) 20:35, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
If this is a shared IP address and you are an uninvolved editor with a registered account, you may continue to edit by logging in.

{{unblock reviewed | 1=Please explain the exact reason for the block | decline = Procedural decline; no reason given to consider an unblock. And given edits like [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Neil_Gorsuch&type=revision&diff=762995875&oldid=762995039 this one] just minutes ago, it looks like the block is appropriate. [[User:Yamla|Yamla]] ([[User talk:Yamla|talk]]) 21:34, 31 January 2017 (UTC)}}

This IP address belongs to a marketing and PR company. Given your contributions, there's no reasonable doubt that you are editing Wikipedia as part of your job, which the Terms of Use would have required you to disclose. Undisclosed paid editing is not acceptable. See also WP:PAID. Huon (talk) 20:50, 31 January 2017 (UTC) {{unblock|reason=WTF are you talking about? It is not a marketing or PR company and it is not my job.......}}Reply

One unblock request at a time, please. --Yamla (talk) 21:34, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

 
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

Huh? the velociraptor change was not done by me. I still don't get what you are talking about.....

Decline reason:

We have confirmed this IP address belongs to The Arte Group, a marketing company. Note that I previously incorrectly reviewed your unblock request and declined it. As such, you are welcome to a third opinion by requesting another unblock request. You will have to address the fact that you are editing from an IP address which Comcast claims belongs to a marketing company, however. Yamla (talk) 22:43, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

It is correct that the velociraptor change was not made by this IP address. I was mistaken. I'm taking a look to see if the block is otherwise legitimate, i.e. if I can see any reason to believe there's been a conflict of interest here. --Yamla (talk) 22:01, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Huon:, this edit claims the IP address belongs to The Arte Group, which I believe to be this website. However, a reverse IP just shows it as belonging to Comcast Business, rather than specifically to a marketing company. The blocked user claims the IP address does not belong to a marketing company and additionally, that they are not reimbursed for their edits. Could you clarify? I expect I'm missing something. --Yamla (talk) 22:11, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

This to me says "Customer: THE ARTE GROUP (C03249925)". So the tag is correct. Huon (talk) 22:22, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
Ah, yes. I was looking in the wrong place on my whois lookup. You are correct. --Yamla (talk) 22:41, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
