June 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Cleveland Browns has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks. Gail (talk) 15:10, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The recent edit you made to Eva Braun constitutes vandalism, and has been reverted. Please do not continue to vandalize pages; use the sandbox for testing. Thanks. Gail (talk) 15:16, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not vandalize pages, as you did with this edit to Dan Quayle. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Gail (talk) 15:21, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Don't you think it's insulting to replace someone's profile image by that of a toilet? Gail (talk) 15:29, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dude, this is an encyclopaedia, not your next graffiti wall. Gail (talk) 15:38, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The wording of the above three warnings is templated... I didn't write them myself. And, humour or not, it wasn't a nice thing to do, considering that this encyclopaedia is viewed by millions. Gail (talk) 15:53, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Because a fraction of the vandalism is missed, and when that happens, it's not the first time that the incident gets picked up by the media, to the detriment of Wikipedia's reputation. This is the result of what was probably meant as a harmless joke, just like yours. How would you feel if we were to get a news headline "Wikipedia promotes former US vice president to a toilet seat"? Would it make you proud? Gail (talk) 16:13, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 15:43, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Scotiabank Place. Gail (talk) 16:14, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
