  Hello, I'm Gilliam. An edit that you recently made to Grayville, Illinois seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! – Gilliam (talk) 00:10, 18 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Category:Wikipedia processes. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. @Kimmiekay74: Please stop adding categories to this "Category" article. There's no reason for you to do it.

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Category:Wikipedia processes, you may be blocked from editing. Exemplo347 (talk) 01:17, 18 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi. I see you're upset. I wanted you to know that raging like this is counterproductive. Many of our editors here are thin-skinned and they might see what you did as a personal attack. I can understand feeling defensive when you get all these warnings thrown at you. We honestly try not to get new editors feeling that way but we have so many vandals to deal with the template warnings are neutral and not driven by emotion while they also get the message across. So, please take a step back and breathe. It's ok. Wikipedia has a learning curve and you're not there yet. Chris Troutman (talk) 01:36, 18 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
