Your reckless deletions are reverted again

Please stop blanking referenced material from articles, accompanied by hostile edit summaries. This is an easy way to get blocked and eventually chased away from the project. Your current approach is not welcome here. I've been here for 8 years and seen dozens of newcomers with such an approach. Guess where are they and their uncivilly-pushed edits now.

Inappropriate editing behaviour

I have noted that Piotrus has already welcomed you and provided you with ample information regarding policies surrounding Wikipedia policy and etiquette for you to become familiar with before embarking on editing.

Since his warm welcome, it seems that you've overlooked policy (as per the message above). Such behaviour could be deemed as being good faith errors of judgement however, blatantly biased POV, disruptive editing, lack of courtesy are not going to stand you in good stead with the community. Your additions have invoked highly questionable value judgements. Rather than gaming the system when contributing to controversial subjects, please engage with others editors working on the article on the relevant talk page.

Thank you for your attention. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 06:51, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Thank you. Please note that protest against any content out of ideological reasons is not acceptable. Just as removing reliable sources and corrections of factual inaccuracies. Also trying to scary me with all possible Wikipedia rules is not productive. Other users already dismissed your exaggerations. --Shervinsky (talk) 07:05, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Your additions have NOT been removed. I made certain that all of them are still available so that relevant information can be sorted through and presented in a neutral way and in coherent English! Please point out where "Other users already dismissed your exaggerations" (Sic)? --Iryna Harpy (talk) 07:18, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

I mean the answer of Alex Bakharev to your REVDEL idea. --Shervinsky (talk) 07:29, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages

Thank you for your recent articles, including Siege of Belaya, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. This can help you too, as the WikiProject members will often defend your work from deletion and try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information.

I'll keep it in mind, thank you. --Shervinsky (talk) 12:45, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for October 15

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.

Battle of Lesnaya, Inappropriate edit wars

I've had you and this little situation we're having notified here. I think your way of approaching things here on wikipedia is not acceptable (ignoring discussion before removal of sourced material, undoing of 6,000+ kb text etc, repeating old "unreliable" sources, even though I have clearly showed you why they're inappropriate). Please, fell free to defend your claim over there. Imonoz (talk) 20:17, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

Also, your edit comment can be considered as a personal attack. Please stop such behavior and instead, use the talk page to explain your position and sources on which you base your conclusions. --Sander Säde 06:45, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

November 2013

Hello, Shervinsky, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia. Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who use multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please remember to disclose these connections. Please read the information on sockpuppetry at WP:SOCK as it seems there are similar edits being carried out by IP addresses and your account. In case this is not you, I have given you the benefit of the doubt (you may simply have forgotten to log in, or be using from a location other than home).

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. --Andrux (talk) 20:45, 26 November 2013 (UTC)

Edit warring at Holodomor

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring, as you did at Holodomor. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

The full report of this case is at WP:AN3#User:Shervinsky reported by User:Andrux (Result: Two editors blocked). Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 05:39, 28 November 2013 (UTC)

Eastern Europe discretionary sanctions apply to Holodomor

The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose discretionary sanctions (information on which is at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions) on any editor who is active on pages broadly related to Eastern Europe. Discretionary sanctions can be used against an editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, satisfy any standard of behavior, or follow any normal editorial process. If you inappropriately edit pages relating to this topic, you may be placed under sanctions, which can include blocks, a revert limitation, or an article ban. The Committee's full decision can be read at the "Final decision" section of the decision page.

Please familiarise yourself with the information page at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions, with the appropriate sections of Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Procedures, and with the case decision page before making any further edits to the pages in question. This notice is given by an uninvolved administrator and will be logged on the case decision, pursuant to the conditions of the Arbitration Committee's discretionary sanctions system.

I'm logging this notice in the arbitration case. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 05:46, 28 November 2013 (UTC)
