editPlease do not add or change content, as you did at International public opinion on the war in Afghanistan, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. See [1], [2]
Before continuing to add content to Wikipedia, please read WP:V, WP:CITE, WP:RS, WP:BURDEN, WP:OR, and WP:LEAD // Timothy :: talk 23:49, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Efforts to impeach George W. Bush. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. See [3]
Before continuing to edit, please read WP:OR, WP:CITE, WP:V and WP:BURDEN. // Timothy :: talk 23:53, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi Dadude sandstorm! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. See [4], [5], [6], [7], [8] are a few examples // Timothy :: talk 00:06, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for that clarification. I thought it was applicable for small changes in wording etc. daruda (talk) 00:07, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at List of generic and genericized trademarks, you may be blocked from editing. TJRC (talk) 23:53, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

editYou're wasting everyone's time. BLP (biography of living person) articles always use a contemporary photo for the infobox, except in cases where no contemporary photos are available. That's a given. I suggest you drop the stick. Ieonine (talk) 20:10, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Democratic Party (United States), you may be blocked from editing. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:38, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
- You're the one being disruptive with your constant reverts. I have clearly taken care to mention loads of respected and wikipedia-accepted sources, whilse your reverts just seem to amount to 'NO!' with the way your edit summaries are written daruda (talk) 22:45, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
- If you were being constructive, you'd be forming consensus on the talk page rather than engaging in original research and synthesis of sources, which is what you're doing. Stop now. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:51, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
- You demonstrate a repeated lack of understanding of what original research is. My edits have just slightly tweaked the articles and I've repeatedly provided several sources and citations.
- You keep reverting mindlessly so it's not like I'm gonna bother arguing. daruda (talk) 23:00, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
