Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic edit

  Hello, I'm CaffeinAddict. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. CaffeinAddict (talk) 22:33, 1 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

    Do keep cool!
    Do maintain a neutral point of view
    Don't spam
    Don't infringe copyright

If you need further help, you can:
    Ask a question
or you can:

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
    Fight vandalism
    Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
    Help contribute to articles
    Perform maintenance tasks
           
    Become a member of a project that interests you
    Help design new templates
    Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost
    Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.

Please remember to:

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the   button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Vaccine Passport Editing/WP:3RR edit

Hi there, I haven't done any counting, and I won't be taking you to any noticeboards, but do be watchful of the 3 revert limit -- a revert is any time you change or remove another editor's text. If you do that more than three times in 24 hours, you're likely to get some sort of sanction. Just a word to the wise. Cheers. Dumuzid (talk) 23:01, 1 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic edit

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. CaffeinAddict (talk) 15:52, 2 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

This version - which you reverted - was fine. The points I made on the talk page are not equivalent to the actual reasons behind governments imposing a passport. Be careful about WP:DE. Zefr (talk) 01:22, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
MuirchertachP, some of your recent edits appear to be disrupting Wikipedia to illustrate a point. There's no "Zefr standard". Firefangledfeathers (talk) 02:14, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Discretionary sanctions alert edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in COVID-19, broadly construed. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Disruptive editing edit

  Please stop your disruptive editing.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic‎, you may be blocked from editing. CaffeinAddict (talk) 01:19, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
