changeIt looks like you are in an change war. Take care, because the three-revert rule does not let users make more than three reverts on a single page in a single day. Any user may still be blocked for being involved in a change war and disruption, even if they have not broken the three-revert rule. When you disagree with another user, you should first try to talk about changes in order to work together to improve Wikipedia and reach consensus. If you continue to disrupt the page, you may be blocked from changing Wikipedia. Please stop using complex words, Please also read WP:Simple English and Basic English#related pages, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 17:40, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
- The complex words were links to tbr revelant simple.wikipedia pages. The words were in brackets () to help lead the reader to more if they want more
- The reverts take out a lot of information and put back in confusing and wrong information.
- FAST shoild be at the top of the article
- The person is constantly reverting changes to his version, whenever any are made. http://simple.m.wiki.x.io/w/index.php?title=Stroke&action=history
- My version is better than because it follows the common term, and is in brackets, linked to the correct article, is fine and makes the article (that he wrote) more helpful. W;ChangingUsername (talk) 17:44, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello, W;ChangingUsername! Here at Simple English Wikipedia we use the section heading "Related pages" instead of English Wikipedia's "See also", which you used in "Blood lead level". This makes it simpler and easier to read. Please remember to use "Related pages" in articles that you create in the future. Thank you for your help! MathXplore (talk) 06:36, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make helpful changes to the encyclopedia. You may not know that Wikipedia has a Manual of Style that should be followed to keep the encyclopedia looking neat and professional. Using different styles in the encyclopedia, as you did to "Blood lead level", can make it harder to read. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about changing this encyclopedia. Thank you. MathXplore (talk) 06:37, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- I'll do that. And thank you, I've been wanting to make all of the pages look the same W;ChangingUsername (talk) 10:22, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make helpful changes to the encyclopedia. However, please do not attack other editors. If you disagree with changes, please talk about the changes and do not insult the editors who made them. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about changing Wikipedia. Thank you. –Davey2010Talk
Please see our policy on personal attacks. Talk about changes editors have made, do not the editors. Personal attacks damage the community and scare away users. Please note that more personal attacks will lead to you being blocked for disruption. Thank you. –Davey2010Talk 16:52, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- Im being personally attacked by you right now as tou send me this
- Get the frick off my talk page! User:W;ChangingUsername (talk) 16:54, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- I did but considering you left this it was thoroughly deserved but either way it was 2 days ago, If you want me to "stay the fuck off your talkpage" I would suggest A) not posting that and B) not pinging me,
- Also I don't understand the rage - You inserted content that was disputed by myself and an admin ..... Respectfully I'm not the problem here but still I'll happily not to post here again, Cheers, –Davey2010Talk 16:57, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- Why are you spamming that? I sent you a barnstar you idiot W;ChangingUsername (talk) 16:56, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
Shouting
changeHello there, please turn off your caps-lock button since submiting edit summaries all in upper case is considered shouting in internet jargon. Thanks in advance. Best, A09 (talk) 21:23, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hi, sorry. I just REALLY dont want them to miss that one whej they come. Getting the 3 notifications scared me too

Your change to Mathilde Radiguet
changeHi, W;ChangingUsername. I noticed that part of your change to this article linked the word "French" to "France". When "French" refers to a person, we usually link it to "French people" instead, like this:
[[French people|French]]
The same is true for other nationalities; we seem to have equivalent articles for the people of many countries. Please keep this in mind when adding links. Thanks! -- Auntof6 (talk) 23:03, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
- My mistake. Ill fix it tomorrow
W;ChangingUsername (talk) 23:08, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
Hi again
changeHi again, W;ChangingUsername. One more thing I noticed in your changes: you're linking years, as in the first part of this change. Please don't link dates in most cases. Dates are mainly linked in chronology articles such as articles for a year or day of the year. Thanks. -- Auntof6 (talk) 02:56, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Why? W;ChangingUsername (talk) 06:21, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- They used to be linked, but it was determined to be unhelpful in most cases and most such links were removed. The manual of style says this:
It is not necessary to add wikilinks to all dates, like this: "[[25 March]] [[2004]]" or "[[February 10]]"). Only add a wikilink if you think the reader will find useful information at the date-related article you have linked to.
- Hope that helps. -- Auntof6 (talk) 16:53, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Cool
- I was doing it so that all autobiographies would link to at least one year, to help increase the bounce rate of pages. So to get people to see more pages - ans even if its a small amount it goes to the year and then everything all links together. I was also planning to link either the birth or death year for what the person is 'famous' for W;ChangingUsername (talk) 20:31, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- It's good to add links, but not to dates, at least not in general articles. In fact, I routinely remove those links when I'm doing any kind of mass changes. -- Auntof6 (talk) 10:07, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Also, you don't really mean "autobiographies," do you? Maybe you meant biographies? -- Auntof6 (talk) 10:13, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Also: ive been trying to link all of the countries people, occupation next to one another and think it looks good. Another thing to do when i get on a computer is linking the country of birth near that by writing in 'born in country' which might be a good format. Maybe you agree with this format and most of the articles can be made to follow the same style. W;ChangingUsername (talk) 23:09, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- I don't know about making it a requirement, but I'd be interested to see an example of what you mean. Can you give me an example of an article where you've made this kind of change? -- Auntof6 (talk) 10:11, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Don't go looking or anything but you will probably see it around :) W;ChangingUsername (talk) 12:14, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

A couple more notes
changeA couple of notes for when you create articles:
- If the article has references (and they all should), include a References heading with a {{reflist}} template after it, instead of letting Wikipedia decide where to put the references.
- When creating an article about a drug, do not include information on how to take the drug, who should take it, or any other information that is instruction or advice. Stick to information about the drug itself, not how people should interact with it. Wikipedia is not a "how-to" for any subject.
Thanks. -- Auntof6 (talk) 17:37, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- I don't know how to do reflist. I've been adding the references header at the bottom though. And I don't know how to do categories and should probably wait until I'm on a computer to do any that aren't done. But I'll do that later (and could make some mistakes...)
- I think that sections for 'who should take it' - and especially who shouldn't, and how it's taken, like tablets and liquid. They're copied from thr NHS website. And simple.wikipedia 'might be someones only source of information' so simplified instructions are useful I think. Especially vrcause it's straight from the source and the reference is healthcare. So long as simplification doesn't put words in their mouth, it should stay, because the 'how to' is from doctors.
- Maybe you thought of posting this concern vecause i was thinking about puttijg information in yhr article about abusing the drugs and dosages for that (on drugs like especislly the antihistamines, and those you can abuse). And with all due respect i think a simplified way of looking at how to tske the medicine is good, even if the NHS already puts most things simply. They might not go to the website to learn about taking medicine safely. W;ChangingUsername (talk) 18:15, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- And what if skipping doage info makes people take too much, take two doses to make up for a missed one, or they dont know what to do about a missed dose? :( — W;ChangingUsername (talk) 19:07, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- It's not Wikipedia's job to give them that information. They should be talking to their doctor about that, but we also don't need to say that. Wikipedia is not a medical provider, so it/we is/are not qualified to give that kind of advice or direction. If they have a prescription drug, it's unlikely that Wikipedia is their only source of information. Even if it is their only source, that doesn't mean Wikipedia has to have everything.
- Don't get me wrong: I think all that information is important. It's just that Wikipedia isn't the place for it. -- Auntof6 (talk) 21:35, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Ok just worrying too much. — W;ChangingUsername (talk) 21:39, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- The references section will usually look like this:
==References==
{{reflist}}
- If you don't include the template shown on the second line, Wikipedia decides where to display the references, and it might display them in the wrong place.
- As for categories, that's kind of a specialty of mine so I'd be glad to help. I can give you some guidelines (in the general sense, not in the sense of Wikipedia guidelines) on what categories are needed for different kinds of subjects. -- Auntof6 (talk) 21:39, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

Oh, one more: be sure to categorize articles. --
An editor has requested deletion of Alcohol (disambiguation), a page you created. We appreciate your changes, but the nominator doesn't believe that the page meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").
Please comment on the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2024/Alcohol (disambiguation) and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also change the page during the discussion to address the nominator's concerns. But you should not remove the requests for deletion template from the top of the page; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you very much. Rathfelder (talk) 09:36, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
Edits
changeHi, I won't warn you as per WP:DTTR but please don't make edits such as this as it's disruptive and obviously dangerous,
Consensus at the moment is leaning towards having a banner on these articles and reinstation of the content with it being reworded etc - There is no consensus to include the entire content back, If you want to reinclude it back please reword it and remove the instructions, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 13:45, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
Warning
changeSome of your recent edits are violating en:WP:Incivility/ WP:Be kind. Actions such as giving sarcastic "barnstars" to other users which insult them, telling an editor that they are worthless, or saying they are on "crack cocaine fumes", are not acceptable on Wikipedia and may lead to being blocked. Please be courteous in the future. 73.170.137.168 (talk) 19:36, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
