September 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Bonny Portmore has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): rule: '\bangelfire\.com\b' (link(s): http://www.angelfire.com/ca/immie/bonny.html) .

If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks!

April 2009

Hi PierceCheng, could you please explain why you are adding the link Accountability System to the articles of tennis professionals? You added it to the bio of Marion Bartoli ([1]) and to Émilie Loit ([2]). Accountability system is not an article on Wikipedia, and doesn't seem to bear any relevance at all to tennis professionals. Please stop adding these links. Thanks! Maedin\talk 09:39, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

June 2009

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on 2008 Greek riots. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Dr.K. logos 17:36, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:NOTREPOSITORY and read WP:EL. I hope this helps. Thanks. Dr.K. logos 17:50, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

About 2009 Iranian election protests

Can you tell me why you deleted my message please? This is the important message! See this: Hong Kong Security Bureau: Travel Advice for Iran --Pierce (talk) 12:09, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi PierceCheng, I've reverted your addition to 2009 Iranian election protests for two reasons. First, that information is not of much consequence to anyone outside of Hong Kong. Second, it really has nothing to do with the topic of the article itself, which is dealing with Iran.
I've also undone your two most recent edits. Removing sourced materiel can be considered to be vandalism, and there's no explaination given either on the Talk page or in the edit summaries which explain those changes.
Also, you should sign your posts by using: ~~~~

Paralympic association football

Paralympic association football is already categorised under Category:Football (soccer) variants, so there is no need to categorise it under Category:Football (soccer) too. – PeeJay 10:45, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your explaination, I will not make a war for edit again.--Pierce (talk) 10:53, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by some search engines, including Google. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. ThemFromSpace 22:26, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. ThemFromSpace 04:13, 8 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I will stop it. But I want to ask question, if I want to add some useful links, can you tell me how should I do?--Pierce (talk) 14:15, 8 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Martial arts

Please only add c-class and above articles to the template. --Nate1481 10:16, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for you advice.--Pierce (talk) 10:53, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Do you honestly believe that links to the NPCs of participating countries are suitable external links for the main Paralympic Games article? There were 148 nations at the last Games and it is ridiculous to consider linking to all of their websites whilst linking to a select few is not only unnecessary but could appear biased. The same with articles on athlete interviews, what is so special about these? Both WP:NOTLINK and WP:ELNO (no. 13) could be applied here I think and additionally at least one of the links was dead. I'm not going to bother to revert your change but I'd ask that you take another look at the links you readded and perhaps remove some of them yourself.

Sports you don't understand

Can you please stop moving sports who's history and roots you don't understand on {{Team Sport}} as per the Shinty article

"Whilst comparisons are often made with field hockey, the two sports have several important differences. In shinty, a player is allowed to play the ball in the air and is allowed to use both sides of the stick. The stick may also be used to block and to tackle, although a player may not come down on an opponent's stick, a practice called hacking. A player may tackle using the body as long as this is shoulder-to-shoulder as in football.

The sport was derived from the same root as the Irish game of hurling but has developed different rules and features. These rules are governed by the Camanachd Association." 86.42.68.129 (talk) 16:17, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article Tanya James (pornographic actress) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No evidence of notability, per WP:PORNBIO

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Re: Number of players

I deleted it because your quality of English is terrible. That passage needs completely rewriting. – PeeJay 15:22, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I see, but you can't delete to deny someone to know which condition will referee stop and terminately the match early.--Pierce (talk) 17:48, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I can't understand you. Your English is terrible. – PeeJay 18:24, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

PeeJay2K3, you could be a bit more diplomatic than that, perhaps?

Pierce, contributions to articles need to be clear and concise expressions of the English language. If I, or other editors, were to understand the gist of what you are trying to say in your contribution, we might have joined you and just copy edited it. Unfortunately your contribution appears unclear to more than one editor. You would benefit by finding someone with a good knowledge of the rules to point you in the right direction. I also am hampered by a lack of detailed knowledge of the game and its rules to know what is correct or not. Do understand that a consensus of editors may still find that your contribution, once clarified, is still not required in the article.

Also note that you moved an inline citation without explanation and appropriated it to your contribution. This is unhelpful and may have been disruptive. Note that edit summaries are for that purpose only - to summarise the purpose and content of an edit. They are not to be used to state a case or seek help of guidance. There are other places and methods to seek the help and guidance you require. The article talk page would be a good place to start. I also commend you understand how to edit an article - information about which can be found in Wikipedia help. Also, please don't edit war. Bleakcomb (talk) 01:42, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Regina Ice

Unsourced, negative biography of a living person. Please do not remove this tag without sourcing the article.

OK, but I will rewrite something for FED Cup 2004 final. Because I want let every tennis fans to know the truth.
Looks like all you did was wait two weeks and re-add your opinion with no references. Please learn Wikipedia policies.

Eugene (given name)

Your undoing of my edit was misguided, and though I'm supposed to assume good faith, a look at your talk page and contribution history shows that you do not understand or follow several Wikipedia policies, so let me clarify why I made my edit, and my objections to your undoing of it. As per Wikipedia's manual of style for disambiguation pages, there should be no period at the end of the line, and there should be at most one wikilink per line. In addition, the fact that Evgeny Korolev was once a compatriot of Evgeniy Kafelnikov is worthless information for disambiguating them; it only serves to confuse. And lastly, you marked your edit as minor, as you appear to mark ALL your edits as minor. In fact, as Help:Minor edit instructs us, very few if any of your edits actually qualify as minor.

Caroline AGF

Hi there. Your revert in Caroline was probably based on not noticing that there is no page for Caroline Dhenin in wikipedia. MOS:DAB is very clear on requiring a "blue link" in each line. WP:WTAF is a good source to the reason why. Am I missing something? Were you planning on creating that page? --Muhandes (talk) 11:21, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I see the same issue with Regina, Huber, Andrea, Tanya (name), Jessica (given name). Please peruse WP:N, MOS:DAB and specifically MOS:DABRL, WP:WTAF. These are all very clear guidelines. --Muhandes (talk) 11:36, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Igor Smirnov

Hey, I noticed you moved the article to X (politic). First, it's "politician", and second, it doesn't make much sense moving the article to a more specific name and leaving the old general one as a redirect. I think the move should be done once an article about the tennis player is written, so we can create a disambiguation page where the old article was. --Illythr (talk) 00:27, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm also here to talk about your page moves. Please don't move pages just because a tennis player has the same name. The only time we should move an article is if another article has an equal or greater claim to the name. Even winning a single title in tennis does not necessarily make that person more prominent than a career politician, for example.   Will Beback  talk  21:21, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Sania Mirza, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Wikipedia:Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Caroline Wozniacki

I reverted your addition a second time on Caroline Wozniacki. There were two problems. First, that information needs to be verified by a reliable source. More importantly, though, Wikipedia strives to provide an encyclopedic summary of subjects. For a sports star, that means that we should not list every single tournament she ever played--only the most notable/important. As such, I don't believe that tournament belongs in the article. If you think I'm wrong, the next step is for you to go to the article's talk page and discuss it there. Thanks. Qwyrxian (talk) 21:33, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello PierceCheng. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. You are pushing hard to promote this non-notable tennis tournament. Whether you're a fan, or you're involved with it, I really don't know. But either way, the manner you're going about it is little more than spam. Courcelles 14:09, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
