Reference errors on 13 August
[edit]Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:
- On the Scotch-Irish American page, your edit caused a duplicate page number error (help). (Fix | Ask for help)
Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, ReferenceBot (talk) 00:30, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
National varieties of English
[edit]In a recent edit to the page Gun politics in Ireland, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.
For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author used.
In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 12:21, 6 October 2015 (UTC)
- If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
- I am reverting the revert made by Ww2censor for a couple of reasons (and I will reiterate this on their talk page):
- Ww2censor has been lazy and simply reverted my whole edit, instead of changing the specific detail that they had issue with.
- Ww2censor is incorrect in his assertion that a) I do not "respect" other peoples' version of English and b) that the spelling I changed was wrong. To clarify, the spelling in English (which is the form of spelling that is used in the Republic of Ireland) for the NOUN is '(a) licence'. The VERB is '(to) license'. Likewise, the spelling in English for the VERB is 'licensing' and 'licensed'. The same is true for the words 'practice/practise' and 'advice/advise'.

- I'm sorry to say that's just US centric BS. I have reverted you a 2nd time. Take it to the talk page if you are so determied to make those changes and see if other editors agree with you. ww2censor (talk) 17:25, 6 October 2015 (UTC)
- Your accusation of "US-centric bullshit" is actually laughable, as I'm not actually from the USA! My IP is. Also, as I've pointed out, there is a spelling difference in English for the verb and the noun. There is no such differentiation in US-English.
- If you have reverted my whole edit, without attention to the edits which concerned things other than the spelling of licence, then I will revert your revert. You may revert those edits I made to the spelling of licence without consequence from me, until I find a citation. Do not revert peoples' edits wholesale - only revert the parts of a person's edit that you have concerns about in the future. Thanks. --98.122.20.56 (talk) 19:13, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

[edit]Your recent editing history at Gun politics in Ireland shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. ww2censor (talk) 21:37, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Erin go bragh may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Stating seriously contested assertions as facts
[edit]Please avoid stating seriously contested assertions as facts as you did here. In Wikipedia the aim is to describe disputes, but not engage in them. Thank you. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 20:18, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
