User talk:Helpfulsources

October 2014

Hello, I'm Geraldo Perez. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Cameron Boyce, but you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Geraldo Perez (talk) 03:20, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at User talk:Helpfulsources, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --I am k6ka ^{Talk to me!} _{See what I have done} 02:23, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to Cameron Boyce. Ethnicelebs is not a reliable source Geraldo Perez (talk) 03:41, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unreferenced or poorly referenced biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Cameron Boyce. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. See http://ethnicelebs.com/all-celebs/welcome/terms point 5 "we make no assurances that all information on our Site is accurate". Geraldo Perez (talk) 04:11, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory or otherwise controversial content into an article or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Cameron Boyce.

Your recent editing history at Cameron Boyce shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your 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.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD 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.

Ethnicelebs

See discussion about this site at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive_76#Ethnicity. Conclusion of that discussion is that the site is not a reliable source so can't be used to support bio info on Wiki.

Also you are corrupting my talk page by overwriting the top headers. I welcome comments on my page, but add them at the end with a header and sign your comments with ~~~~

Also this page is not "your" page, it is part of the Wikipedia project meant for communication about Wiki issues. You are free to delete anything you don't like here but you cannot expect people to respect a blanket command to not post relevant to the project info here.

Edit warring at Cameron Boyce

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring, as you did at Cameron Boyce. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. EdJohnston (talk) 05:55, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
