[edit]
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → 
Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary.

[edit]
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 notice boards.
- 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 Persian Gulf, you may be blocked from editing. WP doesn't take primary research, you need to source your statements and do NOT engage in edit wars. UCaetano (talk) 15:15, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
Answer
[edit]Hi, to answer to the question you asked in your edit summary on Persian Gulf, yes i'm very familiar with this topic and for your information "Fars" refers to a province of Iran (this province was the one where several Persian Empires started, the Achaemenids with Cyrus the Great and the Sasanians with Ardeshir). But the word "Persian" in the Persian Gulf article refers to the Persian Empire, that was the name of Iran until 1935 when it was changed by Reza Shah, not the province of Fars. I would strongly suggest you to behave in a more contructive way with other editors, especially when they are far more experienced than you. For example, do not label their contributions as "vandalism", like you did here with Wario-Man who is a veteran editor here. If you need help to better understand how this encyclopedia works, you're welcome to ask.---Wikaviani (talk) (contribs) 16:47, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

WP:CITE
[edit]Learn how to properly cite references and grow up. Furthermore, the wikilink that you keep trying to add to the See also section of the Christianity in Turkey article is already linked in the Further reading section of the same article; which means that your edit is totally unnecessary and unjustified. GenoV84 (talk) 19:24, 10 October 2024 (UTC) @GenoV84: please show me where the link is found in further reading. Send me a diff. And please read WP:Personal attacks. Comments like "grow up" is NPA and will reported if it continues.--Persian Lad (talk) 20:14, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- Alright, sorry about that. It is the first book cited in the Further reading section: Benny Morris; Dror Ze'evi (24 April 2019). The Thirty-Year Genocide: Turkey's Destruction of Its Christian Minorities, 1894–1924. Harvard University Press. ISBN 978-0-674-91645-6. GenoV84 (talk) 21:00, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- I think that the book is cited throughout the article, but I might be mistaken. I don't have a diff, I don't know who added the source or when. GenoV84 (talk) 21:05, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

[edit]
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! Rsk6400 (talk) 06:09, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
Introduction to contentious topics
[edit]
You have recently edited a page related to the Balkans or Eastern Europe, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practices;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures, you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
