Stop icon Your recent edits could give Wikipedia contributors the impression that you may consider legal or other "off-wiki" action against them, or against Wikipedia itself. Please note that making such threats on Wikipedia is strictly prohibited under Wikipedia's policies on legal threats and civility. Users who make such threats may be blocked. If you have a dispute with the content of any page on Wikipedia, please follow the proper channels for dispute resolution. Please be sure to comment on content, not contributors, and where possible make specific suggestions for changes supported by reliable independent sources and focusing especially on verifiable errors of fact.

Information icon Hello, I'm Knitsey. I noticed that you recently removed content from Murder of Wong Chik Yeok without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your 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.

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about 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.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you 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 do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Janessian. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Murder of Wong Chik Yeok, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Skywatcher68 (talk) 19:39, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Contrary to your statements, consent is not required for images. Copyright law is relevant, of course. See Wikipedia:Image_use_policy#Privacy_rights for policy on this. PhilKnight (talk) 20:06, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I was about to ask the same question - is there a copyright issue with these images? Because otherwise consent isn't really an issue. Simonm223 (talk) 20:08, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I believe the content is nonfree, but it looks to comply with wp:nfcc. Insanityclown1 (talk) 20:18, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Collaboration with other editors

[edit]

I do not know what may be the merits or demerits of your campaign to remove images from articles. I do know, however, that Wikipedia works by collaboration and cooperation, not by individual editors angrily turning against any other editors that they disagree with. If, for example, you think that Skywatcher68 has done something which you think would have been better not done, then explain on their talk page, in a friendly and civil way, why you think that; don't indulge in harassing them by posting a whole string of similar angry messages to their talk page, one after another. Similar considerations apply to the messages you have posted to other editors, but you seem to have gone overboard with Skywatcher68. I offer you the following advice. My experience over the years is that editors who cooperate with other editors and are civil to them, even when they disagree, are likely to achieve at least a significant part of what they set out to achieve; editors who treat any disagreements as things over which to fight, very often achieve none of what they set out to achieve, and before long get blocked from editing by administrators, to put an end to their disruption. I suggest that you think carefully about that, as the way you are going a block may not be far off. JBW (talk) 20:24, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
