Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Tragic Hero Records has been reverted.
Your edit here to Tragic Hero Records was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.facebook.com/WhitneyPeytonMusic) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 17:14, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Edit requests to List of serial killers by number of victims

Hi! You've obviously got a keen interest in this list and want to improve it, which is great. However, I've had to decline the semi-protected edit requests you've made because you haven't provided reliable sources. Identifying reliable sources can be confusing, so I wanted to share a couple of quick rules of thumb I use that might help you:

If it's self-published, it almost always isn't reliable.
Published books are usually okay. Self-published books usually aren't.
Mainstream media news articles (not opinion pieces) are usually okay. If you're not sure whether the source counts as mainstream, then it probably isn't!
If in doubt, check to see if the source says anything about its editing/fact-checking process. If it doesn't say anything, or there isn't one, it's not reliable.

We also need specific sources. For example, an article published in The Guardian can be used as a source. However, just using www.theguardian.com as a source isn't good enough - it doesn't link to the specific article, so readers can't check what the reference is supposedly referring to.

I hope that helps! I'm happy to answer questions, but I'm not on Wikipedia regularly, so if you've got questions I recommend going to the Teahouse. Marianna251TALK 18:30, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Based on this edit, either you didn't see my message here or you've ignored it. Your repeated semi-protected edit requests for this list aren't going anywhere, and if nothing changes, your edit requests will continue to be denied because you're not providing the information needed. Please listen to the advice you've been given. Marianna251TALK 20:03, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This issue is continuing, including unsourced edits made to other articles. Sources are not optional. Everything you add to Wikipedia must be verifiable, i.e. supported by external, reliable sources. You've made some helpful, constructive edits to a number of articles, correcting information which didn't match the sources, but in other places you've done the opposite and completely ignored the sources. Please, please, please, support your edits with reliable sources. Marianna251TALK 17:36, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did on David Thabo Simelane. This violates Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Marianna251TALK 16:22, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop changing the victim count in infoboxes to the highest possible number. This is usually based on a serial killer's own claims, and serial killers lie. It is very, very common for serial killers to claim that they have committed far more murders than can actually be proven - or that even actually happened. Please stick to the confirmed victim count (usually, though not always, how many murders they were convicted of committing) and cite a reliable source.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Niels Högel. The source very, very clearly says that Hogel was convicted of 85 murders, NOT 106. Do not make changes without citing a reliable source. Marianna251TALK 06:18, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Requests on List of serial killers by number of victims

Please stop making edit requests that A) have Unreliable Sources as citations. and B) Go to non-existent pages. This is considered disruptive editing and you can be blocked from editing for it. This is your last warning. LakesideMiners^{My Talk Page} 13:25, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Niels Högel; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Marianna251TALK 18:53, 14 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
