Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Tommy Robinson (activist). Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Drmies ( talk) 21:10, 22 September 2018 (UTC) reply

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Tommy Robinson (activist). You may take this up on the talk page, or peruse the talk page archives where plenty of other activists have taken this up. Do this again and I will have to choose what to block you for: vandalism (for removing well-verified content) or NOTHERE (for activism). Drmies ( talk) 21:16, 22 September 2018 (UTC) reply

Tommy Robinson

"Well-verified content?" Tommy Robinson has not had anything to do with groups that have been PROVEN to be alt-right. Furthermore, just because he is right-leaning DOES NOT mean he is alt-right. C. W. Edward ( talk) 21:32, 22 September 2018 (UTC) reply

Tommy Robinson

Aaaaand let me guess, your going to just ignore this, aren't you? C. W. Edward ( talk) 21:35, 22 September 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Aw shucks, sorry I wasn't watching your little talk page all day. You want something, read Wikipedia:Notifications on how to let people know. As for your argument, you can take that to the talk page, as I suggested. My problem with your edit wasn't about the content. That content has been hashed out many times on the talk page, so your edit is against consensus and thus disruptive. If you want to discuss Mr. Robinson's affiliations, do that elsewhere.

An article you recently created, 2022 Connecticut Attorney General election, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs citations from reliable, independent sources. ( ?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed ( verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Style edits

Hey, just wanted to thank you first off for all the work you've done on U.S. election pages! I also wanted to suggest scanning some of the Wikipedia Manual of Style. The text you've added to these pages has a few tendencies that go against the MOS, which requires catch-up edits by others to correct. A couple of examples:

  • Per MOS:DATERANGE, en dashes (–) are used for separating years—so you'd put 2012–2016 instead of 2012-2016. An en dash is also used for AFL–CIO.
  • Per MOS:JOBTITLES, job titles (e.g., congressman, senator, mayor) are only capitalized under certain conditions. You would say "President Joe Biden," but not "Barack Obama, 44th President of the United States," because "president" is referring to the office, rather than Obama's personal title.

Also, it would be helpful for other editors to add an edit summary for major edits where you're adding or removing content. Don't mean to be a nag, just trying to provide some tips! Let me know if you have any questions -- Jprg1966 (talk) 23:29, 27 April 2022 (UTC) reply
