Hello, I'm Neveselbert. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Christine Keeler, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 19:24, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm SNUGGUMS. I noticed that you recently removed content without adequately explaining why.

If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Peter Farquhar, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you would like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

Hi, and thanks for your efforts to improve Wikipedia. However, many articles are not written in American English. It'd be appreciated if you would check before editing for language style that the article in question is actually about an American subject; if it is not, it will be best to leave its diction to editors familiar with the other variants of English.

@Egeymi:, @Chiswick Chap:, @Ternera:, same problems keep occurring with this IP. Editor refuses to cooperate or behave constructively, is constantly engaged in edit warring. Can somebody please push for an IP block? Thanks --Jkaharper (talk) 13:32, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Please stop changing every occurrence of “age of” to “aged” in Matthew Perry. The article is tagged for American English, and you keep introducing British English phrasing despite requests to stop. Please respect MOS:ENGVAR and MOS:ARTCON and read Comparison_of_American_and_British_English#Word_derivation_and_compounds for guidance on differences between the two. --Celjski Grad

Hi @Martinevans123:, thank you for leaving the message on my talk page. I thought I'd respond here seeing as other users have already raised this issue. From what I can see, there are at least three IPs on the range: 38.95.13.133, as well as , and . The geolocate gives us a location of Tampa, Florida, but I do believe this user is using a VPN. The editing patterns are very similar to that of a past banned user who has re-emerged time and time again. These behavioural patterns include, but are not limited to religiously changing "at the age of" to "aged" (even on U.S. subject articles where that is an incorrect use of U.S. English), as well as the editing of subjects related to British soap operas and LGBT-related topics. That user was User:WelshDragon18 (see also Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/WelshDragon18/Archive). Another of their alt accounts was User:Susan1621. I'm going to tag @Knuthove:, @Bbb23: and @RoySmith: who dealt with the last sockpuppet investigation on this case. I'm not quite sure what the protocol is when an IP that is likely VPN generated is being used? Thanks --Jkaharper (talk) 20:13, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

changing their to his

In the page Abdulaziz bin Bandar Al Saud you made this change, why? Also, as mentioned above please use edit summaries, Egeymi (talk) 04:48, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Why you are seeing this message: Your current IP address is blocked from editing Wikipedia because it appears to belong to a VPN or proxy service.

These types of services are commonly used for abusive editing and circumventing Wikipedia policies, so Wikipedia blocks them as a preventive measure — even if you personally haven't done anything wrong.

How to fix it:

• Turn off VPNs, proxies, or tools like iCloud Private Relay (for Apple users) or Microsoft Edge Secure Network. This is the most frequent reason users encounter this block.
• Try a different connection. Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, or use a home network instead of a public or work one.
• Whitelist Wikipedia. You may be able to whitelist Wikipedia from your VPN so that connections to Wikipedia aren't through a VPN service. Instructions for whitelisting Wikipedia on iCloud Private Relay can be found here.
• Still blocked? If you believe you are not running an anonymizing proxy or Tor, you should consider checking the configuration to make sure it is accurate. Sometimes the configuration for your network is changed without your knowledge, sometimes by malware. In truly exceptional circumstances, you may request IP block exemption. Approval is limited and based on specific criteria, and you should only request it if you have no other way to edit Wikipedia.

Note: These blocks are about the type of internet connection, not your actions. We appreciate good-faith contributors and want to help you get editing again.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a webhost provider's IP address:

If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~}}. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host provider.

Information for administrators:

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.
