January 2025: Gaza war

Minor edits

Information icon Hi Pyramids09! I noticed that you recently made an edit at Gaza war and marked it as "minor", but it may not have been. Minor edit has a 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. Thank you. Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 06:41, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

Content removal

Information icon Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did at Gaza war, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you.

Administrators' noticeboard

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. — Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 06:57, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

I will check it out. Thank you for informing me Pyramids09 (talk) 20:47, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

This is the only time I will warn you. Do anything like Special:Diff/1274236503 against consensus again and you will find yourself the subject of a WP:AE report. TarnishedPathtalk 12:48, 6 February 2025 (UTC)

French Wikipedia defends a user against public threats, steward elections, and other news from the Wikimedia world.
"The only time I ever took photos in my entire life".
From patrolling new edits to uploading photos or joining a campaign, you can count on the Wikimedia platform to be up and running — in your language, anywhere in the world. That is, except for a couple of minutes during the equinoctes.
Or just the end of Wikipedia as we know it?
Of "hunters", "busybodies" and "dancers".

It's an ecstasy, my spring.

And very unusual biographical images.
Send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.
