Rhode Island's 2nd congressional district
Regarding this edit… I don't doubt your math, and you might be correct. But it's Wikipedia practice not to do the math oneself, because that violates the Wikipedia:No original research rule. Plus the citation to which it's linked is dead. Is there a different source for this change? Also, it's best to explain the details in the article (as a footnote) or even on the talk page, instead of the WP:Edit Summary box. That box is just to explain what the change is (see WP:SUMMARYNO). —GoldRingChip 14:22, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Vacant0. Your recent edit(s) to the page National Union (Portugal) appear to have added incorrect information, so they have been removed for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. 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. Thank you. Vacant0 (talk) 12:44, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
Why do you feel in your opinion, that my addition to the party ideology section was incorrect? Even if you don’t do any research on the subject of the military junta which controlled Portugal for over 40 years, on the very same wiki page it states the different groups who are in support of the National Union Party of Portugal, which one of them is favors a monarchy as a form of government and presumably the return of the former Portuguese and Brazilian ruling House of Braganza. See the second to last sentence in the first paragraph as my evidence to back up my claim (see below):
“The National Union membership was mostly drawn from local notables: landowners, professionals and businessmen most of them Catholics, monarchists or conservative republicans. The National Union was never a militant or a very active organization.[1]”

Please stop your disruptive editing
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. 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.
- You edits at Macon County, Alabama, 2016 United States Senate election in Wisconsin, Oregon's 1st congressional district, and Oregon's 5th congressional district contained unsourced information and original research, and, because of your typos, broke many links. Please make sure that your changes are well sourced and do not cause these problems. Thanks. Cpotisch (talk) 01:39, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
ArbCom 2021 Elections voter message
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Your contributed article, 2020 Oklahoma State Senate election

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, 2020 Oklahoma State Senate election. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – 2020 Oklahoma Senate election. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at 2020 Oklahoma Senate election. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.
If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Dillon251992 (talk) 01:40, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from BMW M62 into BMW S62. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,
copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 23:34, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
- Hey Dan, so yes, I created a new page entirely just for the BMW S62 engine as a separate entity compared to its information being crammed on the bottom of its BMW M62 brother. I used all of the information supplied on the BMW M62 page and added more of the history of the engine to warrant the need for the S62 engine to have its very own page, and not have to share it with its brother engine. I have no idea how to source or give credit to the previous author. I just don't know how to integrate that into the new page. If you can help me at all, I would very much appreciate it!
- -Thanks

- I fixed that for you in the edit summary of this diff, but there is a more serious problem. In your most recent edit to that article you copied text from this website. There is a copyright notice at the bottom of the webpage so it can't be copied to Wikipedia. Please summarize information from reliable sources in your own words in the future. Thanks!
