Conostylis aureus

Hello Mgdyason,

Thanks for having a go at editing Wikipedia.

With respect to Conostylis aurea, we don't normally have headings in plant articles (or any articles for that matter) with no information added under the heading. Having a heading "Pests and Diseases" with no information implies that Conostylis aurea has no pests or diseases. That, of course, is not true but I don't know the details of any disease or pests affecting that species. If you have some well-referenced information dealing with that subject, please add them to the page. I would be happy to help you to do that - all you need to do is ask by adding something to my talk page (below).

There are hundreds (perhaps thousands) of pages about Australian plants and very few have the heading "Pests and Diseases". One of the very best (a "Feature Article") is Telopea speciosissima and it does not have that heading. I will leave your heading for a few days to see if you have added any details about the pests and diseases affecting this species, then I will revert it. Sorry!

If you are keen to edit Wikipedia plant pages, why not add information (with headings if you like) to those that are only "stubs"? (Stubs have very few, if any headings.) Some of them are listed in the "Category" link below. Your help in expanding them with well references material would be much appreciated.

Hello, I'm Hayman30. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Queer— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the 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.

Recent edit to Coccinellidae

This recent edit of yours leaves the passage you edited in rather shabby condition. Do you intend further edits? If you intend to leave it for others to fix, please simply perform a manual reversion of that edit. Thank you.If English is not your main language, I recommend that you propose edits on the Talk page for the article, rather than attempting to make them yourself.--Quisqualis (talk) 07:10, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

Did you actually click on the specific link which I gave you? It shows the edit of which I spoke.--Quisqualis (talk) 07:42, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

Here is your version of the passage in question. Does it look OK to you?

"Coccinellids, beetles of the family Coccinellidae, are found worldwide. There are over 6,000 species described . Common names given to Coccinellid beetles include ladybugs in North America[citation needed], and ladybirds in Britain and other parts of the English-speaking world[citation needed]. Entomologists widely prefer the names ladybird beetles or lady beetles[citation needed] as these Coccinellids [insect]]s are not classified as Bugs but Beetles true bugs."

What alphabet are you accustomed to? Please examine your passage in the English Wikipedia article Coccinellidae, cited above, with respect to capitalization, spacing, punctuation and wording. It doesn't entirely make sense, and is not ready for public consumption. The Preview button is your friend.--Quisqualis (talk) 16:01, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

Recent edit to Plural

Hello, and thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to the Plural article. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. Thank you!

Mirrors

Thanks for contributing to the article Nihil obstat. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you. Kuru (talk) 02:59, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

I've removed another reference to a very clearly identified Wikipedia mirror on Nihil obstat. Please let me know if there is something that is confusing you. Kuru (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Freeknowledgecreator. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Maurice Merleau-Ponty have been undone because they did not appear constructive.

Hello, I'm WJ94. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Identity (social science) seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. WJ94 (talk) 12:11, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hi Mgdyason. I have reverted some of your recent edits to Identity (social science) and Maurice Merleau-Ponty since they were not constructive. I appreciate that you want these articles improved but adding so many {{citation needed}} tags does not help to improve the article and neither does adding your own commentary within the article itself. Additionally, some of the templates you tried to add (such as {{relevance and scope}}) were not maintenance tags at all. I also noted that some of your edits around gender and feminism (such as this and this) indicate you have a particular point of view which you want to write about in these articles. Please make sure that you read our policy on Wikipedia's neutral point of view. I would strong advise that you cease editing these articles for now and instead begin a discussion on the talk pages of the articles you want to see improved, with specific suggestions. WJ94 (talk) 16:27, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

In addition, given you apparent interest in gender related issues (based on some of your contributions in the last few months), I also just want to make you aware of this:

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 (a) GamerGate, (b) any gender-related dispute or controversy, (c) people associated with (a) or (b), all broadly construed. 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.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Talk:Maurice Merleau-Ponty, you may be blocked from editing. Freeknowledgecreator (talk) 11:26, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
