Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Please make sure to include an edit summary with every edit. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history.

The edit summary appears in:

• User contributions
• Recent changes
• Watchlists
• Revision differences
• IRC channels
• Related changes
• New pages list and
• Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! —Indian:BIO · ^{[ ChitChat ]} 19:09, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Reference Errors on 2 July

Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:

• On the Oral Fixation Tour page, your edit caused a broken reference name (help). (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, ReferenceBot (talk) 00:21, 3 July 2014 (UTC)

Where We Are Tour

Hello, I just wanted to let you know that you are removing reliable sources from this article. Also, set list is two words not one. Tour articles on Wikipedia also have a new format and the tables no longer include the percentage of how many tickets were sold. There are no incorrect additions on my part and your edits could be deemed as vandalism, which is not tolerated on Wikipedia and could result in you being blocked from editing. Your edits will be reverted. — TheMadonnaMusicCN (talk, contribs) 19:26, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

Hello, the total is 2,709,593 / 2,709,593 not 3,109,593 / 3,109,593. You made a mistake. 409,319 tickets sold in South America + 1,516,887 tickets sold in Europe + 783,387 tickets sold in North America = 2,709,593 tickets sold, not 3,109,593. If you don't do the maths, you can't call my act as vandalism. This is what I wanted to say, your addition is false. Your total will be reversed, I just made a mistake because I undo your modifications and I just wanted to undo the total. --Maximunicorn (talk) 12:06, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

Whoops! I must of calculated wrong. Yeah, you were just accidentally removing sources as well and I was confused as to why but now I understand! Thanks! — TheMadonnaMusicCN (talk, contribs) 14:39, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

September 2014

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Cheek to Cheek (album). Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. —Indian:BIO · ^{[ ChitChat ]} 18:47, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

January 2015

Please stop adding unsourced content. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Snuggums (talk / edits) 13:53, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

June 2015

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Born This Way Ball. Your edits have been reverted or removed.

• 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. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• 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.

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. —Indian:BIO ^{[ ChitChat ]} 19:00, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

November 2015

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by inserting unpublished information or your personal analysis into an article. Snuggums (talk / edits) 18:55, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 1

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited FutureSex/LoveShow, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Fergie. 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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 11:47, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Maximunicorn, and welcome to Wikipedia. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Snuggums (talk / edits) 22:47, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
