Happy editing! Peaceray (talk) 23:11, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hey there. So let me try to help you out. If you don't listen to the advice and efforts to improve your editing of categories, one of two things are likely to happen: You'll be blocked from editing categories, or, blocked from editing the site entirely. Blanking your talk page doesn't erase any of that past communication and the blanking will in fact be used as an argument against you as having a battleground mentality. I'm coming to you as a neutral third party since I received a complaint, and hope you can make an effort to go back, re-read what others were saying to you, particularly @Liz and @Canterbury Tail, and continue editing in good standing. -- ferret (talk) 13:36, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I would also have to ask that you (QuantumFoam66) cease editing categories immediately until you can learn about how the system works. You were warned to stop editing categories out of process and then just recently removed everything in Category:Killzone games even before the CfD you proposed for its parent category (why?) was over, in essence supervoting the discussion. It may be true that some of these "___ games" categories should be deleted, but a typical editor would do that in a single bulk discussion and not a bunch of piecemeal nominations, some for the wrong category. As the other couple of editors said that you deleted from your talk page, you are creating a ton of cleanup work for other editors. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 20:02, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
