At this stage, I think you may be to read wp:disruptive ↗, as some of your edits appear to only be for effect, and you may well be wp:nothere ↗. Slatersteven (talk) 14:37, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

:My editing is not disruptive, but it may be seen as such; my already-''cooked'' ADHD/autistic brain sees the normal as fallacious.

Favor

Hi, so I have seen your edits. And your user page. I'm a car guy from the usa. I was wondering if you can do me a favor when you have the chance. Please and thank you. EleanorMustang73 (talk) 02:15, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

:And what would that favour be?
:Nice username, too ↗. Æ's old account wasn't working (talk) 03:40, 21 February 2025 (UTC)
::Add things on my user page, since I want people to know I'm a car person. I'm from the USA, my favorite car of all time is the Pontiac Firebird. My favorite Holden is the ute and commodore I have a love for the firebird as well, and the Ford Mustang. My favorite movie car of all time, is Eleanor from the original Gone in 60 Seconds. I know it may sound weird, but considering you've been on here for a long time. And I've been on here for almost 2 years, I think it's a good favor. Also, my favorite GM brands of all time are Pontiac and Holden. And hetero male.EleanorMustang73 (talk) 04:07, 21 February 2025 (UTC)
:::Forgot about ADHD. Sorry. EleanorMustang73 (talk) 04:20, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

My user page changes.

Thanks for that additions man. Hopefully, I can add more in the future. Maybe, we can talk to each other more or something. thanks for the help. EleanorMustang73 (talk) 04:26, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, I'm Doniago. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view ↗. Your recent edit to :WarGames ↗ seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page ↗. Thank you.  DonIago (talk) 20:10, 17 March 2025 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 18

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Frenzy ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Man Who Knew Too Much ↗. Such links are usually incorrect ↗, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject ↗.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 07:57, 18 March 2025 (UTC)

30px|alt=Stop icon ↗ Your recent editing history at :Terminator 2: Judgment Day ↗ shows that you are currently engaged in an '''edit war ↗'''; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the '''talk page ↗''' to work toward making a version that represents consensus ↗ among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done ↗. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard ↗ or seek dispute resolution ↗. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection ↗.

'''Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing ↗'''—especially if you violate the three-revert rule ↗, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts ↗ on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—'''even if you do not violate the three-revert rule'''—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

April 2015

You have recently reverted my restoration of links on 2001: A Space Odyssey ↗<nowiki>. I'm normally against any overlinking, however, the links to characters are valid, as they refer to separate listings in Wikipedia. The links should therefore be restored. Regards, ~~~</nowiki> David J Johnson (talk) 11:33, 10 April 2025 (UTC)

:Understood.

Jaws

Can you add anymore horror film related categories on the Jaws (film) article? 2600:387:F:6332:0:0:0:5 ↗ (talk) 13:13, 20 June 2025 (UTC)

:{{Notdone}}: The article for Jaws (film) ↗ defines it as a thriller film ↗, not a horror film. Æ's old account wasn't working (talk) 14:47, 20 June 2025 (UTC)

Controversy?

Hey! I saw your edit on Fossilized Wonders ↗, and I just wanted to ask; can the use of AI in the game really be considered a controversy? S★★★★★ 16:45, 2 July 2025 (UTC)

Checkers (1952 video game)

Hi, were you planning on nominating Checkers (1952 video game) ↗ for GA? It looks pretty solid, and it's pretty much the only "early" video game article that isn't one so it would be nice to add it to the set. I'd be willing to review if you nominated it. --'''PresN''' 21:28, 2 July 2025 (UTC)

:Absolutely planning to nominate for GA. It was the first thing that popped into my head when I first saw the article. Æ's old account wasn't working (talk) 08:40, 3 July 2025 (UTC)

Your GA ↗ nomination of Checkers (1952 video game) ↗

Hi, I'm Salva09. You have recently reverted my edit on Mirage of Blaze ↗. I don't understand why my edit is unencyclopedia addition. Could you please let me know which part is wrong? — Preceding unsigned ↗ comment added by Salva09 (talk • contribs ↗) 08:25, 10 July 2025 (UTC)

Citations in lede

re: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Donkey_Kong_64&curid=153421&diff=1299918690&oldid=1299814882 ↗, as I referenced in my edit summary, MOS:CITELEAD ↗ instructs to use citations for commonly challenged statements, not to completely ban citations from the lede always. In this case, view the edit history (or talk page ↗) to see that this has been commonly challenged. Also reverting a revert is edit warring ↗ and common practice ↗ is to bring it to discussion rather than reverting what was clearly an objection from someone who has been maintaining the article. Please undo your edit. czar 10:53, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things (disambiguation)

I don't know what is your issue with the page This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things (disambiguation) ↗. The page meets the MOS:DAB ↗ criteria, the speedy deletion was rejected and it already survived an AFD nomination, which you opened. It is time for you to let it go.

Tetris page move

Hello Ae, please see Talk:Tetris_(Electronic_Arts)#Requested_move_20_June_2025 ↗. In general, once a requested move has been held, it's bad form to make a WP:BOLD ↗ page move, barring rare circumstances where the situation is clearly different. If you have strong feelings, you can hold a new RM, although ideally raising new information that wasn't covered in the previous RM. SnowFire (talk) 20:26, 10 August 2025 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry warning

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, I'm Anita5192. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions ↗ to :Literacy ↗ have been undone because they did not appear constructive. The use of multiple accounts to evade reversion is considered sockpuppetry ↗, for which you can have your editing privileges revoked indefinitely. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse ↗. Thanks. — Anita5192 (talk) 17:54, 12 November 2025 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in a new RfC at Tetris

Hello, I am inviting you to participate in an RfC currently being held at Talk:Tetris#RFC on How to Define Tetris ↗. This RfC seeks to garner consensus on whether to define ''Tetris'' as a video game or a video game series and whether to add a footnote representing the contradicting sources.

Currently, the RfC has stalled with few participants. Given your participation at the prior RfC, which had a similar question but had an inconclusive closing comment, your input would be very much appreciated. Lazman321 (talk) 01:37, 28 December 2025 (UTC)

February 2026

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Please do not add or change content, as you did at :Jurassic Park ↗, without citing a reliable source ↗. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources ↗ to see how to add references to an article. ''That you provided no explanation nor sources for your change to the genre leads me to question your basis for the change.'' DonIago (talk) 20:43, 26 February 2026 (UTC)

Edit warring

30px|alt=Stop icon ↗ '''You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war ↗, according to the reverts you've made to :Talk:Porsche 928 ↗.''' This means that you are repeatedly reverting content back to how you think it should be, despite knowing that other editors disagree. Once it is known that there is a disagreement, users are expected to collaborate ↗ with others, avoid editing disruptively ↗, and try to reach a consensus ↗ – rather than repeatedly reverting the changes made by other users.

Important points to note:
# {{strong|Edit warring is disruptive behavior ↗ – regardless of how many reverts you have made;}}
# {{strong|Do not engage in edit warring – even if you believe that you are right.}}
You need to discuss the disagreement on the article's talk page ↗ and work towards a revision that represents consensus among everyone involved. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard ↗ or seek dispute resolution ↗ if discussions reach an impasse. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection ↗. {{strong|If you continue to engage in edit warring, you may be blocked ↗ from editing.}}  --Sable232 (talk) 01:54, 23 April 2026 (UTC)
