June 2020

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to List of Eastern Airways destinations, appears to have been inappropriate, and has been reverted. Please feel free to use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. The syntax of your changes was obviously wrong so it broke the display of the table. David Biddulph (talk) 19:29, 4 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm SovalValtos. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Gatwick Airport have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. SovalValtos (talk) 10:43, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Gatwick Airport. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. SovalValtos (talk) 11:44, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Newquay Airport shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Isle of Man Airport, you may be blocked from editing. SovalValtos (talk) 12:56, 5 October 2020 (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 Doncaster Sheffield Airport, you may be blocked from editing. SovalValtos (talk) 08:33, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 4

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of Wizz Air destinations, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Alta. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Request for prototype testing

Hello there!

My name is AVardhana (WMF) (talk) 00:12, 1 April 2021 (UTC), and I recently joined The Wikimedia Foundation and am writing to invite you to participate in a user testing study that I'm currently conducting for The Wikipedia Library team. I noticed you've been an editor on Wikipedia so I thought I would reach out to see if you're interested in testing a prototype of the library's new Homepage?

This would involve my emailing you the prototype with a list of instructions and questions. The purpose of the study is to get a better understanding of what people think of the new Homepage design! If you're interested, please let me know here or feel free to email me at avardhana@wikimedia.org, and I'll be in touch via email! If you have any questions, I am happy to answer them.

Thank you, Aishwarya

Wizz Air Norway

I realise Wizz are shutting down their Oslo base. However, services remain in place until 13 June 2021. In future, rather than just deleting routes, could you put in the end date if it's more than a few days from the current date... and then delete the routes when they really do terminate ? This would after all reflect reality better...Pmbma (talk) 16:54, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

October 2021

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary, as you did at Gatwick Airport. Repeatedly removing references is not acceptable. Nor is switching to an IP account when your edits are reverted. 10mmsocket (talk) 11:00, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

Sockpuppet investigation

An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/SeanM1997, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.

10mmsocket (talk) 11:04, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

Alt accounts and other matters

Hi - I've closed the sock puppetry investigation with no action. However, there are a few points I'd like to make, and things that I'd like to see you do differently in future.

• It's OK to operate two accounts, and the similarity in your two usernames is such that you are clearly not attempting to deceive anyone. However, just for the avoidance of ay doubt, and since you use both accounts to edit the same articles, I'd ask that you declare the connection clearly on the userpage of each account. There's more on this at WP:SOCKLEGIT.
• It's also generally OK to edit without logging into your account. However, that isn't OK if you are getting into disputes with other users at a particular article - in that case, you need to stay logged in to ensure that you can't be accused of attempting to evade scrutiny. Crucially, if another editor reverts one of your changes, you must not reinstate it while logged out. Edit warring is problematic; edit warring while giving the impression of trying to look like two different people will lead to both your account, and your IP, being blocked from editing.
• At a couple of pages, I see you saying in edit summaries something like 'no need for reference on existing routes' - I'm not really clear on what you mean by that, but references are generally required for all assertions, per our verifiability policy. If you'd like to expand on your reasoning there I'd be willing to discuss the point with you, but please don't edit war to remove sources. Girth Summit _(blether) 16:41, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

Citing sources

I reverted[1] one[2] of you edits to Gatwick Airport, because the source cited did not support the facts asserted.

Per WP:V, please do not any info without citing an independent reliable source which actually supports the facts, and please fill any refs using a cite template (see WP:HOWTOCITE) instead of using a bare URL. The ref you added in this was just a bare URL of the airline's home page, which meets none of the criteria. BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 16:42, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

March 2023

Hey Sean,

Apologies for all the reverts for the seasonal Norse edits. Didn’t check far enough on Norse’s bookings (only went to about October, flights disappear after that). Was just wondering though, is there anywhere that states the flights are seasonal? The website doesn’t (still lists OSL-LAX as the only seasonal route). I just want to make sure they’re actually seasonal. I don’t think Norse has fully announced their winter schedule yet and it may just be a case of certain flights not being loaded in yet. Just want to make sure it’s accurate.

Removal of sources

Why did you remove sources from existing destinations? On Copernicus Airport Wrocław you removed three sources, while there was (according to you, no independent sources given) just one destination cut. Please don't do that! It gives me nasty vibes... The Banner talk 00:43, 9 November 2023 (UTC)

SeanM - go easy on The Banner - he/she/they has done a lot to revert vandalism on wikipedia in the past. Pmbma (talk) 20:01, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

As stated three times in my edits - the changes are on the airline's website, on sale and on independent flight pages (Google Flights and Skyscanner). All I'm doing is moving them from Seasonal to Year Round sections of the pages... maybe The Banner should actually read the reason for edits instead of just removing for self controlling reasons SeanM1997 (talk) 10:33, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

All I am asking for is independent sources in the article. Conform WP:V. The Banner talk 11:45, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

Reference formatting

Hello, and thank you for your efforts to improve Wikipedia, and in particular for adding references, as you did to Skiathos International Airport! However, you should know that adding a bare URL is not ideal, and exposes the reference to linkrot. It is preferable to use proper citation templates when citing sources. A bare URL is a URL cited as a reference for some information in an article without any accompanying information about the linked page. In other words, it is just URL copied and pasted into the Wiki text, inserted between <ref>...</ref> tags, without title, author, date, or any of the usual information necessary for a bibliographic citation. Here's an example of a full citation using the {{cite web}} template to cite a web page:

Lorem ipsum<ref>{{cite web |title=Download the Scanning Software - Windows and Mac |publisher=Canon Inc |work=Ask a Question |date=2022 |url=https://support.usa.canon.com/kb/index?page=content&id=ART174839 |access-date=2022-04-02}}</ref> dolor sit amet.

which displays inline in the running text of the article as:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.

and displays under References as:

1. ^ Download the Scanning Software - Windows and Mac". Ask a Question. Canon Inc. 2022. Retrieved 2022-04-02.

If you've already entered one or more bare urls to an article, there are tools available to expand them into full citations; try the reFill tool, which can resolve some bare references semi-automatically. Once again, thanks for adding references to articles, and to avoid future link rot, please consider supplementing your bare URLs—creating full, inline citations with title, author, date, publisher, etc. More information can be found at Wikipedia:Inline citations. Thank you.

Additionally, simply adding a reference to an airline's home page isn't very useful as it does not provide enough information to verify that the information is correct. :Jay8g [V•T•E] 23:09, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

Sources

Can you please add sources to articles instead of throwing insults? Thank you. By now, there is still no evidence that the connection is year round, as the source only covers the winter season. The Banner talk 10:38, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

I didn't insult, I stated facts as you don't seem to want to comprehend. The current route is Summer Seasonal... been on sale as such for over a decade - the change is that is now on sale in the Winter too... hence year round. Just learn the terminology!

Easyjet MXP-LPA

Hi
I noted in Milan Malpensa Airport page, that you move new Easyjet service to Gran Canaria from seasonal to all year round. Where did you get this info? the source seems to limit the speech to the summer season (as it includes all the others Esyjet news for the summer in Italy), while Easyjet website limit the possibility to book this flight to early October 2024, while all the other all-year-long services can be book up to full November 2024. Given these, I'm not sure to consider this service all-year-long already.

So based on inside, unpublished information. That sounds like WP:ORE. The Banner talk 19:43, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

Actually their release specified which was Summer and Winter SeanM1997 (talk) 21:00, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Self promotion?

In your edits here and here, you have cited an article which uses your own tweet on Twitter as a source. Please cite verifiable and reliable sources before making any edits, rather than resorting to using WP:SELFSOURCE. — LeoFrank  ^Talk 10:38, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

This is a concern I have voiced before. The Banner talk 12:13, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

If SeanM1997 does not seem to understand despite raising concerns, we may have to take it up at WP:ANI. Since you seem to know the user's editing patterns, it's best if you could create a thread at ANI. — LeoFrank  ^Talk 12:36, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

I've never referenced my twitter - I've only ever referenced news articles or airline websites SeanM1997 (talk) 20:39, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

If someone else has used my tweet as a source - thats not my responsibility. You dont like airlines as need to be independent. An independent source does it and thats still not good enough. Double standards! Find one example of when a route has not been on sale when I've edited. Never! SeanM1997 (talk) 20:40, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

Oh. If someone uses your tweet as a source and writes and article and you use the very same article as a source to add content, it is definitely not your mistake, it is your double standards. — LeoFrank  ^Talk 04:07, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

I will also say - look at my edit history. Look how many times I have removed other people's edits for quoting my X account and put an actual online article as a source. So when you say self promotion and my editing patterns - then I question YOUR agenda SeanM1997 (talk) 20:52, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

I think this needs to go to ANI. SeanM1997 clearly has some issues around reliable sources. Almost everything on this talk page indicates that this is a serious issue that's been going on for years. Enough is enough on this, using a source that quotes their own tweet as the source and trying to say it's reliable as a result is evidence that is has gone beyond simply not having initially read about reliable sources, but is entirely calling the competence into question. This has been going on for years, and I'm amazed no one has taken any stronger action about this lack of ability to source earlier. Canterbury Tail talk 21:38, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

By their reply, it is very clear that SeanM1997 does not understand the concerns being raised. Neither do they understand the meaning of WP:V, WP:RS, WP:SPS. — LeoFrank  ^Talk 04:08, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

I find it difficult to ask for action. Even a topic ban will effectively be a complete ban as he and his alternate account almost exclusively work on airlines and airports. But this edit feeds my feeling that he works on inside information. The Banner talk 15:01, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

Ultimately the decision and way forward has to be about the integrity of the project as a whole, not the ability for a individual to edit when their edits are against that integrity. Canterbury Tail talk 23:06, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

Firstly I only have one account

Secondly, if you look at the edits of the website - they added my tweet AFTER I posted a link to it

Thirdly, if someone else had posted that article, it would have been allowed

The reason so many edits are reverted is because TheBanner does not understand seasonality of the airline industry nor how removals are not advertised by airlines SeanM1997 (talk) 06:20, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

I certainly DO understand the difference between sourced and unsourced edits. I am also aware of the - now inactive (?) - alternate account SeanMoulton1997. The Banner talk 09:00, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

If something is moved from Seasonal to Year Round (or vice versa) because an airline has it on sale, they are not promoting it. All flights are loaded one season at a time so get moved around a lot. Which again you fail to understand but you seem fine if others edit as such

Secondly, I reported that account as was not me - but you wouldn't care to look at that. SeanM1997 (talk) 20:22, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

At Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/SeanM1997/Archive you state something else. The Banner talk 20:39, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

Bournemouth Airport

FYI: it are the connections that need sourcing, not only the airline. The Banner talk 17:22, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

This is the same practice which has been done on the Liverpool page for the Jet2 base launching in 2024 - with only the additions afterwards having additional links. So I am reducing page clutter and ensuring accuracy SeanM1997 (talk) 17:23, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
