- @Padgriffin Hello. Can you educate me on contributing to wikipedia? For example, what resources can I add or to what extent can I improve the page? I am a researcher and I really want to contribute to wikipedia and improve it. I would be very glad if you help. Thanks. Emrahthehistorist17 (talk) 02:05, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I'm NebY. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Alexander the Great have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. NebY (talk) 09:26, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 18:40, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Simplified Manual of Style
- Task Center – need some ideas of what kind of things need doing? Go here.
Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 18:39, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
Mass edits to infoboxes
Please desist from your mass edits to infoboxes (some of which are listed below) which deviate from the standard templating of |result=
. See {{infobox military conflict}}: result – optional – this parameter may use one of two standard terms: "X victory" or "Inconclusive". The term used is for the "immediate" outcome of the "subject" conflict and should reflect what the sources say.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could also go back and revert these non-standard parameters. (Edit. I believe I have now found all related cases in your, thankfully not-too-long, edit history.) I will also note that this has been raised before to you in edit summaries, specifically this instance on 12 February. Ifly6 (talk) 07:00, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
- Please WP:COMMUNICATE beyond a petulant Do not delete my additions and blank edit summaries – 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 – or I will ask for further action. Your edits to some of these infoboxes are also egregious. See Talk:Roman–Seleucid war#Revert, 1 March 2024:
Reverted some drive-by edits to the infobox which included a very strange line
Roman Republic conquered Syria
which is complete nonsense when Syria is wikilinked toSelucid Empire. As to the bolding of certain participants, I find it strange to emphasise Hannibal (who largely played no part in fighting) and Scipio Africanus (who was ill at the decisive battle and played no part in it).- This specific article I know more about mostly because I wrote it. The article gives no support to your positions, which is contrary to WP:DISAMB page. There is no reason to believe this conflict is a "part of" a larger conflict. Again, see {{infobox military conflict}} documentation. Ifly6 (talk) 14:53, 1 March 2024 (UTC)]
- Adding on to the previous list of blank edit summaries, second reverts: 1, 2, 3. Ifly6 (talk) 15:08, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
- @Ifly6 As long as you delete my edits like this, your website will never improve. It's done. Emrahthehistorist17 (talk) 15:51, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
- Your edits are actively detrimental to the infoboxes, which are meant to summarise the article rather than supplant them. Some edits of these edits are blatantly false, contradict the reliable sources, and contradict the article itself. Paeans to

Please stop. If you continue to assume ownership of articles, you may be
- @AirshipJungleman29 Okay, I won't edit your ridiculous site anymore. You're not using any reliable sources anyway, so continue doing whatever you want for your own pleasure. Now stop texting me or I will report you. Emrahthehistorist17 (talk) 16:44, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Burning of the Ottoman flagship off Chios. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 16:25, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
