July 2011 edit

  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, your petitioning on a Wikipedia talk-page counts as soapboxing. This is not allowed, and the section has now been removed. Just for the record, here's a link to your petition, and the good-faith response to it from another user.

  Please do not use talk pages such as Talk:Ethiopia for general discussion of the topic. They are for discussion related to improving the article. They are not to be used as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See here for more information. Thank you. Please also see WP:SOAP. Gyrofrog (talk) 23:07, 20 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use talk pages for inappropriate discussion, as you did at Talk:Ethiopia, you may be blocked from editing. Gyrofrog (talk) 11:07, 21 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

  This is your last warning; the next time you use talk pages for inappropriate discussions, as you did at Talk:Ethiopia, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. You've been previously warned about misuse of the talk page, and now you've created a new section that directly impugns another editor. Gyrofrog (talk) 21:47, 21 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Your recent edits edit

  Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button   located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 23:52, 21 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
