Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:List of Hail Mary passes in American football, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. aboideau^talk 17:28, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

I did not make any grammar or spelling changes.

Hi 214.26.77.245, the thing is you shouldn't really be making any changes; grammar and spelling changes are just what the template mentions specifically. Editing comments to illustrate your point is definitely not OK.

Also, please try to remember to sign your comments when you're participating in a discussion. Thank you! aboideau^talk 19:16, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I presume you also sent this same message to the user with the IP of 62.96.234.7. As for signing, its always automatically put the IP in the past. Did something change with that?

I didn't realize that they also edited your comment, but I just left them a note. Sinebot does automatically sign some comments with this template, but a lot of pages don't have that enabled, making it a good idea to get into the habit of signing manually :). aboideau^talk 13:41, 25 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The page does have it enabled as its done it in the past. That is a problem with Wikipedia then, not mine.

Hello, I'm Awesome Aasim. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —specifically this edit to Myspace—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. A a s i m 23:02, 28 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at Talk:List of Hail Mary passes in American football. Such edits are disruptive, and may appear to other editors to be vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. aboideau^{sapere aude} 19:55, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That article has been locked since at least Feb. How could I have made any changes to it?

That wasn't about the article, but about the /Talk page. 62.96.234.17 (talk) 15:37, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
