Why vandalize? A bot or a person will revert your changes soon after they are made and then what do you have left? Nothing! If you make constructive edits -- that is, edits that improve the encyclopedia -- there is a chance that those edits will last for years, perhaps even for decades or longer. If, instead of painting and drawing, Leonardo da Vinci had tagged buildings with the 15th-century equivalent of graffiti, there would be nothing left of his work today and he would not be famous. But he chose to create works of art and science instead. Those works have inspired millions and have endured to modern times. Please consider becoming a constructive contributor. If you have questions about how to get started, please feel free to ask them below and someone will get back to you. Regards, Rus793 (talk) 17:18, 26 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

November 2016 change

  We like and strongly encourage helpful changes to Wikipedia, but "1992 Cairo earthquake" was directly copied and pasted from the main English Wikipedia. Please do not do that. Such articles are usually too complex. They need to be simplified before or immediately after being added to the Simple English Wikipedia. In addition, be sure to include attribution on the article's talk page. Thank you. Auntof6 (talk) 04:56, 18 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did to Oggy and the Cockroaches, without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Rus793 (talk) 17:17, 26 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

RfD nomination of Johnny Gosch change

 

An editor has requested deletion of Johnny Gosch, an article you created. We appreciate your changes, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Please comment on the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2017/Johnny Gosch and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also change the article during the discussion to address the nominator's concerns. But you should not remove the requests for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you very much. Eptalon (talk) 20:37, 2 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

December 2017 change

Please do not edit other people's userpages, as you did to User:Jwilson7123. A person's userpage may only be edited by them (or an administrator). If you wish to experiment, please use the Sandbox. DaneGeld (talk) 16:51, 10 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
