Hello. An edit that you recently made to Friedrich Hayek seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, 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! – S. Rich (talk) 06:53, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

Please be careful

NSH, I am glad that you are keen to edit in Misplaced Pages, but I urge you to be more careful - take your time and make sure that you edits are correct before you press "save changes". Use the "Show preview" button to check your spelling and capitalization. Also, be sure to provide references to reliable sources per the Misplaced Pages policy on Verifiability . I have reverted several of your edits that were not ready for Misplaced Pages. Regards, Ground Zero | t 13:21, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

In the last few days you've done over 30 edits to the Maxime Bernier article and many many more if we look back further. There are still grammar errors, but checking and fixing every trivial edit would be tedious. So I'll only add my support to what Ground Zero said: please be careful.

Please stop ignoring requests to discuss your edits

@NotSeenHere: Please tell me that at least you are receiving "ping" messages and posts on your talk page -- I have yet to see you respond to anything. In the latest series of changes, on Maxime_Bernier, you added statements about Bernier's father which I believed were poorly sourced, so I removed them. You reverted me. I went to the talk page, I explained the problem, I asked you to discuss. You ignored me, and continued to edit Maxime Bernier. I went to the talk page, said that I was removing again, and asked for anyone's input, and removed again. You reverted me, and continued to edit Maxime Bernier as if nothing is going on. I remind you that both I and Ground Zero have seen problems with your edits, and that this is a page which is subject to WP:BLP.

March 2017

Hello, I'm Simplexity22. Misplaced Pages is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Kevin O'Leary seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Simplexity22 (talk) 03:44, 12 March 2017 (UTC)

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Misplaced Pages about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to Kevin O'Leary. Thank you. Simplexity22 (talk) 03:44, 12 March 2017 (UTC)

Maxime Bernier

You are trying to remove sourced information from the Maxime Bernier page without explanation. Please discuss your proposed changes on the talk page. Bell1985 (talk) 19:30, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

May 2017

Your recent editing history at Maxime Bernier 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 are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the 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.

Please don't misrepresent sources.

On the Maxime Bernier article, the source says that in the National Observer interview, Bernier stated that "many" of his values differ from Libertarianism, but you changed it to read his values "slightly" differ (the exact opposite). Is this just your opinion? You also removed all of the examples. Why?11pm (talk) 05:35, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring. The thread is Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:NotSeenHere reported by User:Simplexity22 (Result: ). Thank you. Simplexity22 (talk) 05:40, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.  NeilN 14:43, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

Lots of reverts, one talk page post. Please change this behavior. --NeilN 14:44, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

Are you looking to get blocked again? --NeilN 18:00, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
