Test Edits change
Thank you for experimenting with the page Dominican Republic on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it is now gone. Please use the sandbox if you want to do any more test changes, and see the welcome page if you want to learn about helping Simple English Wikipedia. Thank you. FSM Noodly? 22:57, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
Please do not make unhelpful changes to Wikipedia, like you did to Dominican Republic. The changes you made seem to be vandalism and have been removed. If you want to try changing Wikipedia to learn more about how it works, please use the sandbox. Thank you. FSM Noodly? 23:09, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
Please stop using the word Mulatto when describing demographics. It is a word that can be considered offensive and rude in some cultures. Thankyou, FSM Noodly? 23:11, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
We like and strongly encourage helpful changes to Wikipedia, but an article you created was directly copied and pasted from the main English Wikipedia. Please do not do that, as such articles are usually too complex and may have templates that do not exist here. Thank you. --Mercy (talk) 21:35, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
Please stop. This is your last warning. --Mercy (talk) 21:51, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
Hello, 71.196.72.160. An article you created Dominican spanish, has been automatically tagged for deletion because it looks like vandalism. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. If you think there has been an error please feel free to remove the tag and leave a message here explaining what happened. Thank you. --GoblinBot4 (talk) 21:05, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
January 2010 change
Please stop making test edits to Dominican Republic. The ethnic groups parameter is not currently available at Simple English Wikipedia. Quantum4 Send me a message 15:00, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
Please do not make test changes in Wikipedia articles even if you want to fix them. Such edits seem to be vandalism and have been changed back or deleted. If you would like to try out changing Wikipedia again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Theodolyte (talk) 17:26, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
Statistics change
Please don't just add random population numbers to articles without backing up your claims with a reliable source. Continuing to do so could lead to your ability to change being removed. Lauryn Ashby (d) 02:49, 24 January 2010 (UTC)
- Consider this your final warning; either source your claims, or do not make them. Lauryn Ashby (d) 02:50, 24 January 2010 (UTC)
Once the block has ended you can make helpful changes. Please read Wikipedia's blocking policy and remember that adding spam, making changes that do not have a neutral point of view, making personal attacks on others, not respecting other people's privacy, and vandalizing pages are not allowed. If you do any of these things, you will be blocked again.
If you think this block is unfair, you can ask to be unblocked by adding {{Unblock|your reason here}} below. If you cannot do this or the reason is private please send an e-mail to simple-admins-l@lists.wikimedia.org and an administrator will look at your reason and reply. You may want to consider reading our guide to unblock requests before requesting to be unblocked. Lauryn Ashby (d) 02:50, 24 January 2010 (UTC)Dominican Republic change
Please stop making test edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Dominican Republic. This is vandalism which, under Wikipedia policy, can lead to you being blocked from changing Wikipedia. If you would like to try out changing Wikipedia again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. --Isis♠(talk) 23:18, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
February 2010 change
Please do not make unhelpful edits to Wikipedia, like you did to Hispaniola. The edits you made seem to be vandalism and have been removed. If you want to try editing Wikipedia to learn more about how it works, please use the sandbox. Thank you. MisterWiki (talk) 00:01, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
Dominican Republic again change
I see you're back to doing what got you blocked before. If you're going to change population numbers, that's fine as long as you have a source with which to back up your edits. The way the article stands now, it has a reference to verify the population figures. Please do not continue to undo other's edits to add your unreferenced one back in. If you feel the numbers are incorrect, you can discuss it with others here or at Talk:Dominican Republic. Thanks, Lauryn (u • t • c) 22:42, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
- This is still the case. Please use sources if you're going to change these numbers, or you could be blocked again. Kansan (talk) 01:21, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
March 2010 change
Your recent changes, such as the one you made to "Dominican Republic", are vandalism, and this shows that you want to harm Wikipedia. This is your last warning. If you vandalize Wikipedia again, you will be blocked from changing Wikipedia. Lauryn (u • t • c) 09:53, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
April 2010 change
This is the only warning you will get for the bad changes you made. If you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did to Dominican Republic, you will be blocked from editing. — laurynashby 01:19, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
September 2010 change

November 2010 change
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make helpful changes to the encyclopedia. However, please do not attack other editors, as you did on User talk:71.196.72.160. If you disagree with changes, please talk about the changes and not the editors who made them. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about changing Wikipedia. Thank you.
Bad warning? Please report it here then remove this warning. --ChenzwBot (talk ▪ changes) 18:49, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
