Disambiguation link notification for August 20
editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Ben Kinchlow, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Evangelist (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

editWelcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in WFAN (AM), disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. BlueboyLINY (talk) 04:15, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
Hi MasterControlMaster13! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at WNYM 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. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information.

Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in WNYM. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. BlueboyLINY (talk) 04:48, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
What in the world are you talking about? MasterControlMaster13 (talk) 07:35, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
- Likely the overabundance of hatnotes for 'for current/past use of calls, see...'. The top shouldn't be that top-heavy with hatnotes or unlikely queries (outside a few readers from the 1930s, everyone else knows WKBD as a Detroit TV station). I did restore your WMCA updates. But, since you did declare a WP:COI as a Salem employee, I must drop the below template; please don't take it personally, it's what is required to edit here. Nate • (chatter) 21:15, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
Hello, MasterControlMaster13. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page WMCA (AM), 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 organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
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, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Your edits complied with the last line and I'm sure you understand those limits. Nate • (chatter) 21:21, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

editHi MasterControlMaster13! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at WVBN (FM) 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. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

Hi MasterControlMaster13! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at WOR (AM) 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. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. BlueboyLINY (talk) 22:36, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content, as you did at WOR (AM), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. BlueboyLINY (talk) 22:43, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
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, you may be blocked from editing. BlueboyLINY (talk) 22:47, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
- @BlueboyLINY I don't know what your problem with me is, and I really don't care. But to label me as a "disruptive editor" when all I have done is make consistent, factual, structually- and grammatically-correct edits–and threaten me with a block–is going too far.
- Are you mad because I'm a better editor than you are? I don't know, but I would rather you air your gripes with me one-on-one first. MasterControlMaster13 (talk) 22:55, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
- @BlueboyLINY And another thing: you don't own these pages (such as WVBN or WOR (AM)) based on your background. I currently work in radio/TV and have a broad wealth of historical knowledge. So I can accuse you of violating Wikipedia:OWN. Except I'm not that petty. Think about that. MasterControlMaster13 (talk) 22:59, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for reaching out to me with your concerns. As a fellow Broadcaster (since 1972), and Wikipedia editor (since 2011), and someone who respects your years of experience, as I would hope for you to respect my 50 years of experience, I understand your frustration with being labeled as a "disruptive editor." However, I would like to clarify that this label is not a personal attack on you, but rather a response to certain actions or behaviors that have been observed on Wikipedia.
- While I appreciate your attempt at consistent, factual, and structurally- and grammatically-correct edits, it is important to keep in mind that Wikipedia operates under a set of guidelines and policies that are in place to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the content on the platform. If there are any issues with your editing, it is because they have been brought to your attention in the spirit of improving the quality of the content.
- As for the threat of a block, please understand that this is not a personal attack but rather a standard protocol for enforcing Wikipedia policies. I would be happy to discuss any specific issues or concerns you have with your editing, but it is important to approach these conversations with an open mind and a willingness to work collaboratively towards the common goal of improving the accuracy and reliability of Wikipedia.
- Regarding the accusation of violating Wikipedia:OWN, it's important to note that no editor owns any page on Wikipedia. All pages are open to editing by anyone, and every editor should strive to collaborate with others to improve the accuracy and quality of the content.
- Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia, and please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. - BlueboyLINY (talk) 02:30, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

editPlease do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to WHDH (TV). Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use your sandbox. Thank you. BlueboyLINY (talk) 19:05, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

editPlease refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at The Merv Griffin Show. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please 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, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. BlueboyLINY (talk) 02:25, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at The Merv Griffin Show 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.
