  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Palestinian people. When removing content, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the page history.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Justice League Unlimited, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Jonathan Kent (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process.

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

  Hello, I'm AlexanderLevian. I noticed that you recently removed some content without adequately explaining why.

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. Thanks.

  Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to Hedy Lamarr does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing →   Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! Peaceray (talk) 19:24, 13 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Before adding a category to an article, as you did to Billy Crystal, please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia's categorization guidelines. Categories must also be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter.

Billy Crystal is Jewish and a comedian. Not sure how that is an incorrect category.

Proposed deletion of Eric Breker

edit
 

The article Eric Breker has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

  Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Liberty Phoenix. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Sundayclose (talk) 15:37, 17 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Jews

edit

Erm, I see you've been adding categories to biographies -- Jewish this, Jewish that. One of them is on my watchlist, James Remar, to which you added the category "Jewish-American actors.

But Remar's not Jewish. So I mean if you got that wrong, I'm not confident that you're getting any of them right, and my inclination is to roll back all similar edits until I learn more about your methodology. Can you explain your sources and so forth? Thanks. Herostratus (talk) 06:36, 2 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Categories

edit

  Please do not add religion, ethnic, or descent categories or information to biography articles without first ensuring that 1) the category is supported by reliably sourced article content, 2) the individual identifies as such, and 3) it is a defining characteristic of the individual . Please see WP:BLPCAT, WP:EGRS, and WP:CATDEF for additional information. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's policies and guidelines regarding the addition of such content after being clearly notified, you will likely be blocked without further notice.--Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 23:26, 7 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
