Hello LordHood2552! While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.
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. — Diannaa ( talk) 16:16, 28 November 2021 (UTC)
Your edit to Le Régiment de Joliette has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited South Alberta Regiment, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page AB. 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.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot ( talk) 05:58, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
Hello LordHood2552! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as The Governor General's Body Guard, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted material from other websites or printed works. This article appears to contain work copied from https://www.militaryheritage.com/gghg.htm, and therefore to constitute a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policies. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate your contributions, copying content from other websites is unlawful and against Wikipedia's copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators are likely to lose their editing privileges.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under license allowed by Wikipedia, then you should do one of the following:
It may also be necessary for the text to be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
See Wikipedia:Declaration of consent for all enquiries for a template of the permissions letter the copyright holder is expected to send.
Otherwise, you may rewrite this article from scratch. If you would like to begin working on a new version of the article you may do so at this temporary page. Leave a note at Talk:The Governor General's Body Guard saying you have done so and an administrator will move the new article into place once the issue is resolved.
Thank you, and please feel welcome to continue contributing to Wikipedia. Happy editing! — Diannaa ( talk) 16:17, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
I noticed you've been moving a lot of articles to add the word "the" at the beginning of their titles. Please note that our practice is to exclude the definite article unless certain specific conditions are met, which are listed at WP:NCTHE. – bradv 🍁 04:41, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
Hi LordHood2552! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Canadian Machine Gun Corps that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. Meters ( talk) 06:12, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Canadian Machine Gun Corps. 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. What are you doing? Administrative Corps is not a unit size. Meters ( talk) 06:13, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

Unfortunately you are adding incorrect categories to articles. For example, there was no need to add Category:The Loyal Edmonton Regiment at James Riley Stone [1] because the article already had Category:The Loyal Edmonton Regiment soldiers The articles already had a category that is a subset of that. They are redundant and will need to be removed. If you have any questions please drop me a line. Thanks Buckshot06 (talk) 03:57, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
Hello LordHood2552!
Please stop using the imdbtitle link as I noticed you did at War Story. The reasons for not using that type of link are explained at WT:WikiProject_Film/Archive 79#Masking imdb links as wikilinks. There is a template {{ imdb title}} which can be used in the external links section of articles. I've made the change in this case. Thanks. Mike Turnbull ( talk) 19:48, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

Dear LordHood2552, in view of your seeming inability to understand WP's hierarchical category structure, I was going to post about your behaviour at WP:ANI. However, another option there is to consult a currently active WP:ADMINISTRATOR, and I have done so at User talk:Nick-D. Please feel free to put your side of the case at that page. Kind regards Buckshot06 (talk) 01:15, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Category:12th Manitoba Dragoons soldiers, a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Contest this speedy deletion which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 02:49, 20 May 2022 (UTC)

Dear LordHood2552, I have just had to revert your edit reinserting the regimental crest of the Royal Regiment of Canadian Artillery at 26th Field Artillery Regiment (Canada). JJMC89 bot ( talk · contribs) removed the crest because there was no proper non-free content justification given for the crest's use at that page. You need to either avoid the use of this image or insert a proper NFCC justification before readding non-free content. Stop ignoring warnings of policy violation, please. For questions talk to the experts at WP:MCQ. Kind regards Buckshot06 (talk) 09:16, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

Please take a look at WP:CATEGORY and the policy and guidelines it contains.
WP:CATV says "Apart from certain exceptions [like Highland & Scottish infantry regiments which are also Light Infantry regiments, which would be placed in *both* categories], an article should be categorised under the most specific branch in the category tree possible, without duplication in parent categories above it.
I have been cleaning up duplicate articles placed in up to four categories above each other since the day I first discovered your edits.
As I said, I have been advised to seek WP:Administrator action at WP:AN. That remains an option. Buckshot06 (talk) 03:02, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
With some regret, I also have to inform you about WP:NOTMEMORIAL: "Wikipedia is not the place to memorialize deceased friends, relatives, acquaintances, or others who do not meet such ( WP:NOTABLE) requirements." At WT:MILHIST there's been previous discussion about long lists of key personnel and how to adjust our editing in response to this WP policy. What it means in effect is that lists of key personnel, like the one I've just removed from the 3rd Battalion (Toronto Regiment), CEF article, are not in keeping with policy. I know; the originals of a battalion that went through the entire war are worth remembering!! But the consensus has been that not to this level of detail - WP:NOTDIRECTORY. Feel free to come to argue your case at WT:MILHIST or at any other forum on WP you wish. Regards Buckshot06 (talk) 01:21, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
