  Hello, I'm Binksternet. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Don't Forget Your Roots (album), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 23:59, 3 December 2023 (UTC)Reply


  Hi PunkRockFan86! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of The Offspring several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:The Offspring, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 18:10, 13 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to AC/DC, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Your removal of AC/DC's former members and associated references contradicts long-standing acceptance and requires consensus of interested editors at article's talk page. Please discuss there before making significant changes to Members listings.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 00:42, 18 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop. If you continue to use disruptive, inappropriate or hard-to-read formatting, as you did at List of members of the Offspring, you may be blocked from editing. There is a Wikipedia Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. See MOS:NOBOLD. Don't use bold type to indicate stuff in lists.

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at AC/DC. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

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. Please leave the "Band members" section the way it is. It has sources on it and I would rather you shouldn't make changes on it.VAUGHAN J. (TALK) 07:52, 26 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Llacb47. I noticed that you recently removed content from Dave Baksh 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.

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Cruising California (Bumpin' in My Trunk). Binksternet (talk) 19:55, 21 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you make disruptive edits to Wikipedia contrary to the Manual of Style, as you did at List of members of the Offspring. This change is wrong. See MOS:DATERANGE. Binksternet (talk) 22:07, 23 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I noticed that you may have recently made edits while logged out. Please be mindful not to perform controversial edits while logged out, or your account risks being blocked from editing. Please consider reading up on Wikipedia's policy on multiple accounts before editing further. Additionally, making edits while logged out reveals your IP address, which may allow others to determine your location and identity. If this was not your intention, please remember to log in when editing. Thank you. Vanjagenije (talk) 17:26, 13 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

I am sorry and thank you for your help. It wasn’t my intention to edit without logging in. PunkRockFan86 (talk) 20:49, 14 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at Dave Navarro, you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 13:10, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Brandon Darner. Binksternet (talk) 22:11, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Blocked as a sockpuppet

edit
Wikipedia's technical logs indicate that this user account has been or may be used abusively as a sockpuppet of User:JacobESTjalma per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/JacobESTjalma. It has been blocked indefinitely from editing to prevent abuse.

Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.
If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should review the guide to appealing blocks, and then appeal your block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}}. Note that anything you post in your unblock request will be public, so you may alternatively use the Unblock Ticket Request System to submit an appeal if it contains information that must be private.

Administrators: Checkusers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or by administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not loosen or remove this block, or issue an IP block exemption, without consulting with a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee. Administrators who undo checkuser blocks without permission from a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee may be summarily desysopped.
