[[File:Stop hand nuvola.svg|30px|left|alt=Stop icon]] Your recent editing history at [[:Talk: Graham Linehan]] shows that you are currently engaged in an [[Wikipedia:Edit warring|edit war]]; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. 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 [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines|talk page]] to work toward making a version that represents [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See [[Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle|the bold, revert, discuss cycle]] for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant [[Wikipedia:Noticeboards|noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]]. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary [[Wikipedia:Protection policy|page protection]]. |

'''Being involved in an edit war can result in you being [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''—especially if you violate the [[Wikipedia:Edit warring#The three-revert rule|three-revert rule]], which states that an editor must not perform more than three [[Help:Reverting|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 do not violate the three-revert rule'''—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.<!-- Template:uw-3rr --> [[User:Sideswipe9th|Sideswipe9th]] ([[User talk:Sideswipe9th|talk]]) 02:01, 9 July 2022 (UTC) |

RE: Jason Steele (footballer)
Sorry I missed your message; I'm semi-retired and can't spend as much time on Wikipedia as I would like. Do feel free to let me know if I can be of any future assistance; if you'd like Jason Steele (footballer born 1990) moved to Jason Steele (footballer), I'd be more than happy to facilitate that.

Louis Laing
Hi, the Louis Laing article now exists in article space, and you have a duplicate in your userspace at User:Clicriffhard/Louis Laing. Could you please blank your one and replace the content with {{db-u1}}. No point in having it 2 places. Thanks.--ClubOranjeT 10:29, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
I have removed the {{prod}} tag from Todd Kane, which you proposed for deletion. I'm leaving this message here to notify you about it. If you still think the article should be deleted, please don't add the {{prod}} template back to the article. Instead, feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks! --93.209.78.210 (talk) 09:33, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for June 17
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited England national under-20 football team, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Luke Williams (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your request for undeletion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that a response has been made at Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion regarding a submission you made. The thread is Jordan Pickford. JohnCD (talk) 18:48, 3 August 2013 (UTC)
Birth dates
Hello, and I do apologise for not checking the article history to see who was actively involved in maintaining the page and speaking to them first. However, no, I don't think I should have done the work myself, though if I'd known of an easy reliable source to link to as a general source, I'd have been happy to do that. The problem is, consensus at WP:FOOTY is that Transfermarkt isn't a reliable source, because they still accept user submissions for facts, and user-generated info isn't reliable. WP:BLPPRIVACY says that "Wikipedia includes full names and dates of birth that have been widely published by reliable sources, or by sources linked to the subject such that it may reasonably be inferred that the subject does not object." cheers, Struway2 (talk) 13:33, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
- I'll have a go at sourcing the under-19s, if that'll help. Again, sorry for not checking for active editors, was thoughtless of me. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 13:45, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
- Done that, although I was a little confused by Josh and Ola Aina. There's no-one called Josh Aina on Chelsea's website, and no-one called Ola Aina on the FA's, and this CFC article has Ola starting a game that Josh played in, so I assumed they were the same person and ref'd accordingly. But if you know different, please change/undo. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 15:21, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
A gesture of appreciation

...for all the work you do in maintaining the England under-age football team pages, and for your remarkable tolerance towards people who come blundering in... Much appreciated. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 10:16, 12 September 2013 (UTC) |
Disambiguation link notification for October 11
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited England national under-21 football team, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Serravalle and Michael Keane (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Lewis Baker
Hi Clicriffhard,
Updated Lewis Baker (footballer) for his Chelsea Goal of the Year and Young Player of the Year awards. If they don't belong as they are not league honours, my apologies and feel free to remove them.
EDIT: References added. Linked the video on Chelsea FC's official YouTube channel containing their awards night 2014. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nusoh (talk • contribs) 10:41, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
Devante Cole
Thanks for your help here, I have cleaned up the wording and referencing, a very decent start to an article if I don't say so myself! GiantSnowman 21:33, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
- I've made a slight change - one other I want to query with you is your referencing, why have you added so many seemingly unecessary parameters and all the archive URLs? Seems like overkill to me when we don't have any deadlinks, just a waste of space. I might remove them. GiantSnowman 08:56, 20 August 2014 (UTC)

Oops
Hello, sorry about this revert; I have no idea how I managed to do that. Your edit to the Biscuit article appeared on my watchlist, so I must have somehow misclicked on the rollback button when I went to your contributions. Graham87 12:29, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

According to the WP:TPG, The purpose of an article's talk page (accessible via the talk or discussion tab) is to provide space for editors to discuss changes to its associated article or WikiProject. Article talk pages should not be used by editors as platforms for their personal views on a subject.
An editor's unsubstantiated opinions about what Linehan is or isn't is an example of the latter, not the former. Off-topic comments can be removed per WP:NOTFORUM.
If the specific aspect in question had not already been talked to death- using actual sources- on that same Talk page previously, I might have a more liberal view about unsubstantiated assertions on talk. *Might*. But it has, at tedious length. Newimpartial (talk) 00:03, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- That page is actually quite specific about the approach that should be taken to deleting other people's comments on talk pages. A few quotes:
- "The basic rule, with exceptions outlined below, is to not edit or delete others' posts without their permission."
- "Cautiously editing or removing another editor's comments is sometimes allowed, but normally you should stop if there is any objection."
- "Off-topic posts: Your idea of what is off topic may differ from what others think is off topic, so be sure to err on the side of caution."
- "It is common to simply delete gibberish, test edits, harmful or prohibited material (as described above), and comments or discussion clearly about the article's subject (as opposed to the treatment of the subject in the article)."
- Whatever you may think of the quality of the comment, it's about the article's treatment of Linehan as "anti-trans". It should be perfectly obvious that you were wrong to delete it, so I'll revert again and ask you to please stop deleting it. Nobody needs your permission to express opinions about articles that you personally are bored of hearing. Clicriffhard (talk) 00:54, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- I'm afraid the purpose of article Talk pages is not to hear the opinions of other editors on the subjects of Wikipedia articles. Talk pages are to discuss improvements to articles themselves, and rants without sources or argumentation do not help the collaborative project. Newimpartial (talk) 01:25, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- Not the subject but "the treatment of the subject", as well you know, and the IP comment couldn't be more explicit that it was about the article's treatment of its subject. I personally agree that the comment is pretty thin and so I have no intention of engaging with it, but this incessant and, frankly, creepy possessiveness over the article has to stop. You don't own it and I beg you to stop trying to bully people off it. Clicriffhard (talk) 01:48, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

Standard ArbCom discretionary sanctions notice
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in gender-related disputes or controversies or in people associated with them. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}}
on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Your recent editing history at Talk: Graham Linehan shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. 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 the bold, revert, discuss cycle 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 you 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 do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
