[edit]- ClueBot NG did not know that the edit was constructive. The robot even undid the worldwide release for The Sims Mobile. Now no one's going to know when will the worldwide release be. Also, iOS is not just iPhone and it's actually iPhone, iPad, etc.
- For help, take a look at the introduction.
- The following is the log entry regarding this message: The Sims Mobile was changed by Williamwang363 (u) (t) ANN scored at 0.951139 on 2017-10-29T13:18:37+00:00 .
Thank you.

[edit]Jellico Mountain moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Jellico Mountain, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. buidhe 23:46, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

[edit]April 22
Happy 50th anniversary of Earth Day everyone. Remember to continue protecting our planet from further climate change. Methane gas emitted from cows disrupt the ozone layer in the outer reaches of the Earth's atmosphere, so please be careful when trying to eat beef. Opt for pork instead. Thank You!
April 24, JFK Airport first edit warring warning
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on John F. Kennedy International Airport; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.
For your information, the padlocks are only displayed on articles that are protected. If you feel that an article needs to be protected, you should file a request at WP:RFPP. Please do not edit war with bots that are operating correctly. Mjroots (talk) 05:21, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

[edit]June 11
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
I noticed your recent edit to Tropical Storm Cristobal (2020) does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary.

Disambiguation link notification for May 20
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Forest Glen station, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Wheaton. 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.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:17, 20 May 2021 (UTC)

[edit]Duluth, Georgia
[edit]I removed unsourced material from the article. You re-added it - without an explanation, and without any sources. Care to explain why you did that? It's borderline disruptive editing and can certainly result in you being blocked if you keep it up. JimKaatFan (talk) 14:40, 6 May 2022 (UTC)
- Would you mind giving me an explanation if what I done is disruptive editing or vandalism, because what I done could have also been contributing to edit warring? Williamwang363 (talk) 01:34, 7 May 2022 (UTC)
- Please read Wikipedia:Citing sources. The text that is directly relevant to this case is "In particular, sources are required for material that is challenged or likely to be challenged – if reliable sources cannot be found for challenged material, it is likely to be removed from the article." (emphasis mine) JimKaatFan (talk) 22:06, 7 May 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you so much for that. Will definitely not forget this time and thank you for the reminder. Williamwang363 (talk) 23:07, 7 May 2022 (UTC)

Removing template WMATA type from many stations
[edit]Hi, I noticed you removed the {{WMATA type}} template from many of the station pages. Was there a discussion or other consensus reached to remove it? Otherwise it seems like that discussion should be had and the removals reverted. Thanks! Skynxnex (talk) 23:12, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
- There is a controversy here. Then who removed a lot of
rapid transit station template from major transfer hubs, such as Metro Center, Gallery Place, and L Enfant Plaza, for instance. We need to get to the bottom of this. Williamwang363 (talk) 00:31, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
- Huh. I guess I'll have to poke around more to figure out why that template has been removed overtime, since it seems overall useful. I've started a section on the project talk page, I think: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Washington_Metro#Why_has_Template:WMATA_type_been_slowly_removed_from_station_pages?. Skynxnex (talk) 20:33, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
- That is especially true for major transfer hubs. Now without all that, it makes it very ambiguous. When I attempted to add it back, someone would revert it within a few hours. Again, thank you for trying to figure out who is behind all of that mess. Williamwang363 (talk) 23:34, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Williamwang363 See the project page linked above. I'm still pondering this (and might mean I agree with the removal in the end, I just had originally thought it was a weird mass removal without any discussion--but that isn't true on Pi.'s part) but I think it makes sense to pause and I didn't mean for you to revert/add back a bunch of stuff if there was a reason. I'm a bit confused by you saying
figure out who is behind all of that mess
when before I asked you, you removed it on many pages. So, stop. And discuss on the project page is probably the best action. Skynxnex (talk) 01:23, 12 September 2022 (UTC)- I guess you are right on this one. Thank you for the discussion page anyway. Williamwang363 (talk) 11:21, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

Unsourced material
[edit]Hi I saw you left a message on my talk page. There is indeed a valid source covering the changes from WMATA themselves. Plus the name change has been approved for months now, but have yet become official. Here is the source below:
This means the changes have been official but have yet to be updated on Wikipedia and maps. Someone has already did North Bethesda station on this edit here.
Also, I forgot to mention Downtown Largo was approved in January here. Swagging (talk) 00:52, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you for the clarification, and for getting rid of the confusion that I was having earlier. I will promise to not mislead you again. Williamwang363 (talk) 02:13, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
- Don't worry about it, it cool lol. Swagging (talk) 12:31, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
Vienna station
[edit]Why did you add the GMU to the main station name? It is the secondary name. I have fixed it. Fastfoodfanatic (talk) 16:16, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- I am telling you this because GMU is within the proximity of Vienna station. Williamwang363 (talk) 01:12, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
