Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Ahmad al-Tijani, did not appear constructive and has been undone. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Please do not add or significantly change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did with this edit to Ahmad al-Tijani. 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) 06:28, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Warning

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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. See BRD for 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. --Kansas Bear (talk) 07:03, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Use the article talk page now

Or you are likely to be blocked. Note that you must provide sources meetin WP:RS if you have any chance to get this changed. That's not optional, your edit summary argument doesn't work here, we insist on good sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Doug Weller (talk • contribs) 07:47, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Just to be absolutely clear. Whatever "if he is from a cherifienne it means he is decendent from prophet mohamed and prpphet mohamed is Arab from saudi arabia" means, that's not a source. A source needs to be a published source, in this case almsot certainly academic, and it must say he is an Arab or a Berber or from such a family. Saying he is someone's descendant is irrelevant. I must be a descendant of a lot of royal families (that's just statistics) but doesn't make me royal. Doug Weller talk 14:10, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm NewEnglandYankee. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Libya, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. NewEnglandYankee (talk) 21:42, 26 December 2017 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Libya, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Moors. Once again you are ignoring the source, you've had enough warnings to know better. Doug Weller talk 14:46, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
