Hello, I'm CactusWriter. An edit that you recently made to Richard Bazley seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! — CactusWriter 23:58, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

April 2014

Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Misplaced Pages this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Misplaced Pages is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you.

Additionally, you seem to be a new editor, so I highly recommend that you familiarize yourself with Misplaced Pages's major policies and guidelines; this guide for new users is a good place to start. An example of this is why I've been reverting your edits on List of Animaniacs episodes; the vast majority of them have been in conflict with WP:OVERLINK, the policy on the use of internal Wikilinks in articles (the short version of which is that they should only be used the first time a term is used in any given article). If you learn these, your time here will be much more enjoyable! rdfox 76 (talk) 17:33, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Misplaced Pages. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Misplaced Pages's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Misplaced Pages's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. rdfox 76 (talk) 02:44, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

Reference Errors on 3 April

Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:

• On the List of Animaniacs episodes page, your edit caused a wikilink error (help). (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, ReferenceBot (talk) 00:49, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. In your recent edit to Jean MacCurdy, you added links to an article which did not add content or meaning, or repeated the same link several times throughout the article. Please see Misplaced Pages's guideline on links to avoid overlinking. Thank you. M. Caecilius (talk) 01:01, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

I've noticed that you've been adding unnecessary links to many articles. While your intentions may be well, I'd appreciate if you can familiarize yourself with the rule I just linked to, and avoid editing articles repeatedly for the same purpose because they may be construed as edit warring and may get you blocked from editing. Thank you, and I appreciate your effort to help this encyclopedia! M. Caecilius (talk) 01:03, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you disrupt Misplaced Pages, as you did at List of Pinky and the Brain episodes, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.

You have failed to heed the information given to you over the course of two days and already violated the rules against edit warring by reverting the page four times (here, here, here, and here). In addition, all of your edits appear to be clear violations of WP:OVERLINK. Please stop. Continued uncooperative behavior may result in you being blocked. M.
