December 2023

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Shaun of the Dead, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

January 2024

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Shaun of the Dead. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. i dont have rollback so i will be undoing the edits 1 by 1 by 1 by 1 by 1 Megabits000 (talk) 00:27, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

Draftifying redirects

I have reverted your move of Ballistic (novel) to User:Dunkybrown/Ballistic (novel). Please do not move redirects to your userspace. If you want to draft a new article to take the redirect's place, you can do so without moving the redirect. jlwoodwa (talk) 02:51, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

TFA selections

Please note that you are not authorized to select articles. Additionally, some of the articles you chose are not even featured articles. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 20:57, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

Additionally, using other people's name, like here, is absolutely inappropriate. (CC) Tbhotch^™

To be absolutely clear: If you misuse other people's names again (another example is here, where you claimed that two other people requested the dates instead of you), you will be blocked from editing. —Kusma (talk) 10:40, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

Concerning the TFA articles you selected, please see Talk:Main Page#Speedy deletion?. I'll give it another couple of days (to see if there are objections or questions) before I delete these pages (but someone else may beat me to it). If there's any text you'd like to save from these blurbs, go ahead and save the text now somewhere in your own userspace. - Dank (push to talk) 14:02, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

WP:TFARP

Please do not add articles to Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/pending that are not Featured Articles, as you did here. One of those was only a GA, one was C-class. Neither of the additions had any connection to the dates you listed them under either.

It may be advisable for you to focus more on writing and editing articles than trying to do anything with the front page, until you understand the requirements and restrictions on main page content. - SchroCat (talk) 05:16, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

Date formats

Hi Dunkybrown, I see you have been adding information to articles using the mdy date format, when the articles in question state to use dmy dates. Please look at the date format stated to be used at the top of the editing page when you make your respective edits and keep to that date format. Helper201 (talk) 04:58, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:In Too Deep Lee Child book cover.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:In Too Deep Lee Child book cover.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.
