Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Unite the Right rally. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. General Ization ^Talk 05:11, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Important Notice

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Does this mean I can't make edits on anything related to post-1992 politics? I don't really know what this means MisterWat3rm3l0n (talk) 19:35, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It means that you should be very sure that you know, understand and follow Wikipedia's policies before you edit any articles that pertain to post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people. If you are not and/or do not, you are subject to discretionary sanctions. This message, like most messages you will receive on this page, contains wikilinks you can use to find out more information or to clarify any terms that are unclear to you.

Disambiguation link notification for July 1

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2018 United States attorney general elections, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Alan Wilson and Chris Carr. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:14, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please review WP:ONUS: if your addition is challenged, you must go to the talk page to seek (and obtain) consensus for inclusion before restoring. Neutrality^talk 16:25, 24 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

July 2022

Please stop your disruptive editing.

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

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Blake Masters (political candidate), you may be blocked from editing. BusterD (talk) 08:09, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MisterWat3rm3l0n! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Dave Williams (Colorado politician) that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very 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. BBQboffin^{grill me} 06:21, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

August 2024

Hello MisterWat3rm3l0n. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did.

In addition, because there were major changes being made to the lead which has been the subject of long conversations on the talk page, I have reverted your edit. Since that paragraph has also been reverted in the past by different users, the Wikipedia:ONUS is on you to seek and obtain consensus obtain consensus before restoring.

Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:26, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What commentary??? MisterWat3rm3l0n (talk) 16:28, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No commentary, but your addition of material to Gallego's lead, removals from Lake's lead, and rewriting of Mayorkas' lead demonstrate a clear POV to me. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:32, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Gallego is well-known as a progressive, almost every article talks about him in this way and a sudden change in the way he portrays himself for the election. For Mayorkas half the lede is fluff, and I didn't add any wrong or biased information in there either (please tell me if I did). It's either fact check articles or information directly from the government. The Kari Lake change was because the CNN article links to a tweet with a caption and nothing else, and there's not enough mention in the actual body of the article to give it weight in the lede. ???

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Missvain (talk) 23:45, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
