Welcome!
Hello 138.163.0.42!
Thank you for your contributions to this free encyclopedia. You are welcome to continue editing articles without logging in, but you may wish to create an account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits. If you edit without a username, your IP address (138.163.0.42) is used to identify you instead.
In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please remember to sign your name on talk pages by clicking or using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your username and the date. Also, please do your best to always fill in the edit summary field. Below are some useful links to help you get started.
Hello, 138.163.0.42. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Please ensure you are familiar with these guidelines before you edit any articles related to the United States military or government. Thank you - wolf20:06, 3 December 2020 (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. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also 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! --SineBot18:28, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to User:Cheeser1, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).
this is a shared IP for millions of people. It sucks that there are some idiots, but no need to punish everybody on behalf of them.
Decline reason:
That's why the block is anon-only, to allow people to continue editing. If you do not yet have an account, please check your block message to see how to obtain one. — Yamla (talk) 17:49, 29 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
Then just do away with anon editing. Wikipedia = Fail

This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits. If you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did to Security clearance, you will be blocked from editing. If you continue to vandalize using US Marine Corps computer, this whole IP range will be blocked from editing.Cahk (talk) 20:50, 24 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Naomi Oreskes. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution.

Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Business casual. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write practically anything you want. Amp71 (talk) 15:29, 24 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Please stop changing Nvidia to NVIDIA, we don't follow company trademark styling. See WP:ALLCAPS. Nearly all your edits today have violated the guidelines of our Manual of Style and have therefore been reverted. I suggest you stop making such changes until you've read and understood our style guide. To continue with what you are doing is wasting both your own time and mine. Yworo (talk) 01:55, 17 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I'm Scetoaux. I noticed that you recently made an edit to Zipper that seemed to be a test. Your test worked! If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to do so. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks, — scetoaux(T|C)05:19, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Increasingly, OCS-IS candidates are non-commissioned officers in whom the Army has invested years of training and education. I do not understand why the OCS-IS candidates are non commissioned and why are they majority?? I expected a better academic performance.
Hello, I'm Velella. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Thomas Tucker, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. VelellaVelella Talk 19:59, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Commander, Naval Air Forces may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "[]"s and 2 "{}"s likely mistaking one for another. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia pages, such as those you made to Dingo , even if you intend to fix them later. Your edits do not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 22:20, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Edward Snowden, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. --Dr. Fleischman (talk) 22:03, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Silento, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary.

This is the only warning you will receive. Your recent vandalism, as you did to Bouyon music, will not be tolerated. Vandalizing articles on occasions that are days or weeks apart from each other sometimes prevents editors from being blocked, although your continued vandalism constitutes a long term pattern of abuse. The next time you vandalize a page, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia without further notice. Long-term disruption, block evasion. See Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Caribbean music vandal.Binksternet (talk) 06:57, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The data sheet here says "2500 kilowatts". That's 2500 x 1000 watts = 2,500,000 watts, or 2.5 megawatts. Please be a little more careful before declaring long-standing content as "ludicrous". Jeh (talk) 17:50, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hello. Your recent edit to El Toro High School appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.
