30px|left|alt=Stop icon ↗ Your recent editing history at :Back to the Egg ↗ 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. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle ↗ for 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 ↗'''&mdash;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&mdash;'''even if you do not violate the three-revert rule'''&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.<!-- Template:uw-3rr --> JG66 (talk) 06:03, 6 June 2021 (UTC)

"Straight Outta Cullompton" connection to the Monkees' 1968 film "Head"



I acknowledge your 19 March 2021 critique. I included the quote to show that there is another side that one should consider besides just the downbeat evaluations that everyone else made. Accordingly I would like to undo your cut of that section.98.149.97.245 ↗ (talk) 02:19, 22 August 2021 (UTC)

Glass Creek



Hi, thanks so much for your edits on the Glass Creek ↗ article, really appreciate the research. I'd been meaning to find out more about it but never got around to it.
If you're the same David that I'm thinking of, I was one of your students and thoroughly enjoyed your classes (and excursions to interesting places).

:Thank you! For your thanks and also enjoying my classes and excursions.

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hi, and thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into :Re Styles ↗. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move ↗", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history ↗, which is legally required for attribution ↗. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be ''moved'' to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits ↗, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab ↗ at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu ↗ for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect ↗ from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves ↗ to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge ↗. Thank you. <!-- Template:uw-c&pmove --> <span style="font-family:Papyrus; color:#800080;">'''''L'''''iz</span> <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">'''''Read!''''' ↗ '''''Talk!'''''</sup> 01:56, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

:Hi Liz, I didn't give a page a different title - I am not sure what this means or how I would do it. I linked the name Re Styles in another page, then used the link to create a new page - as was suggested in another Wikipedia page. So, not sure what's been picked up here, but that isn't what happened. Davidnicholsknowsbest (talk) 08:58, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
