Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Religion in Liberia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Vai. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Donka Hospital

[edit]

Please do not make major changes to this article without discussion on the talk page. I have reverted the most recent change, which I consider unproductive. Specifically:

  • There is no need for citations in the lead section of the article. The [citation needed] flags here are not appropriate
  • The subject of patient charges is different from the subject of treatment provided, and should be in a separate section
  • History is covered in different sections, e.g. facilities and treatment. A stand-alone section almost entirely devoted to the last ten years is unbalanced
  • The coverage by western visitors is a distinct subject, and deserves a separate section.

If you disagree, you may give your reasons on the article's talk page, but you should obtain consensus before making such major changes. Thanks, Aymatth2 (talk) 16:26, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies for touching your pet article! Seems like a great hospital too. PuffinSoc (talk) 05:34, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Re-introduction of paragraphs

[edit]

Hi, Well done! Once more, there's more breathing space. It makes reading so much easier for the History section (Mauritius).

JLindsayD (talk) 14:47, 11 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Yes, I'll help you. I've sent a gentle note to this guy (K???). I've told him that paragraphs make reading so much easier. But he keeps on fusing paragraphs together. Anyway, we can always revert to the older version (with paragraphs) each time he keeps messing things up.

Maghrebian community of Paris

Thanks for editing Maghrebian community of Paris! Anyway, is it alright if you provide the page numbers of the sources related to the 2005 riots! I want to ensure the texts of the sources directly support the statements.

Thanks WhisperToMe (talk) 23:43, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely. I've added direct links to the original academic papers within the references. The papers had no page numbers though, but the info is right before the reader when they open. PuffinSoc (talk) 04:34, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nigerian weather and communications satellites

[edit]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Nigerian weather and communications satellites, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://w3nigeria.com/science-and-technology.php.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's 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. See BRD for 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

original research at Charlie hebdo

[edit]

if you write the background section , the 'muslims in france' section, why not use RS that discuss the background to the shooting, -discuss muslims in frnace directly in relation to the shooting, you are just gathering stuff you reckon is background - what you reckon is background, is just your OR - Sayerslle (talk) 07:53, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring on Charlie Hebdo shooting

[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Charlie Hebdo shooting. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

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 Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount and can lead to a block, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection.

PuffinSoc, the consensus on the talk page is that this information is to be reduced. If you were even paying attention (even to the edit comments), you would know that this material has been condensed into a paragraph in the preceding section, so your continued re-addition results in redundant text. If you think any of this should still be included, take it to the talk page first, as it is being hotly debated—including by those who want all of this information effaced entirely.

Hello! There is a DR/N request you may have interest in.

[edit]

This message is being sent to let you know of a discussion at the Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute discussion you may have participated in. Content disputes can hold up article development and make editing difficult for editors. You are not required to participate, but you are both invited and encouraged to help this dispute come to a resolution. Please join us to help form a consensus. Thank you!

ArbCom elections are now open!

[edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
