Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Planet Coaster, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk • contribs) 06:41, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Ridge Racer V, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Arcade (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:04, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
If you wish to participate in the 2018 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 18:42, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
You're probably not aware of this change, but Days of the Year pages are no longer exempt from WP:V and direct sources are required for additions. For details see the content guideline, the WikiProject Days of the Year style guide or the edit notice on any DOY page. Please do not add new additions to these pages without direct sources as the burden to provide them is on the editor who adds or restores material to these pages. Thank you.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits.

All maintenance templates like ((Use mdy dates)) or ((Use American English)), the date is the last time the format was verified. This is pretty obvious, especially since the update was made by the widely used MOSNUM script. Read the documentation. -- ferret (talk) 12:58, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
The citation does need to mention the date, and as far as I can see, this one doesn't even mention September, let alone the 11th. Let me know if I'm mistaken. Deb (talk) 12:17, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
I wanted to let you know how much your work fixing incorrect game release dates is appreciated. I came to the same conclusion you did a year or two ago—that enormous numbers of these dates across Wikipedia were wrong and had to be fixed manually with independent citations to articles from the time. To the best of my knowledge, the error derives from a mistake GameSpot made in the late '90s or early 2000s, when it converted its release date listings from month-year format to month-day-year. The release months had been correct before, but in adding the day, something strange happened: the release date was automatically rolled to the last day of its release month or, often, the last day of the previous month. You can see the comparison here and here. Per Online Gaming Review, the game's actual release date was November 11. Wikipedians, including myself, simply copied GameSpot's dates verbatim and spread the error here.
Even though I realized what had happened, the whole job of fixing it was too daunting to do myself, so I just left it alone. And that was that, until your date corrections started to pop up on my watchlist. I don't envy the job you're doing but you have my absolute respect for attempting it. Keep up the great work!
For your continuing efforts to correct the rampant inaccuracy of video game release dates across Wikipedia, I award you the Video Game Barnstar. Best of luck with this difficult and often thankless task! JimmyBlackwing (talk) 18:46, 5 December 2019 (UTC)

Bonjour, pourquoi vous avez fait du vandalisme ? EOLE79 (talk) 11:05, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
Hi,
I can't help but think that your essay on Willy on Wheels only serves to inspire other trolls. People see how infamous vandals like him become and decide to imitate him for attention. See WP:DENY. I was wondering what your thoughts were on this essay, and I would appreciate if you could explain what practical purpose the essay has to us.
