Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Article, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems.

Assume good faith

What to type	What it makes
{{subst:uw-agf1\|Article}}	Welcome to Wikipedia. Editors are expected to treat each other with respect and civility. On this encyclopedia project, editors assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not appear to do at Article. Here is Wikipedia's welcome page, and it is hoped that you will assume the good faith of other editors and continue to help us improve Wikipedia! Thank you very much!
{{subst:uw-agf2\|Article}}	Please remember to assume good faith when dealing with other editors, which you did not do on Article. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-agf3\|Article}}	Please stop. If you continue to assume bad faith when dealing with other editors, as you did at Article, you may be blocked from editing. Assume that they are here to improve rather than harm Wikipedia.

No personal attacks

What to type	What it makes
{{subst:uw-npa1\|Article}}	Hello, I'm [[User:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}\|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}]]. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Article that didn't seem very civil, so it may have been removed. Wikipedia is built on collaboration, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on [[User_talk:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}\|my talk page]]. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-npa2\|Article}}	Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Article. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you.

Jokes

What to type	What it makes
{{subst:uw-joke1\|Article}}	Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia, and articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Article. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, please use the sandbox instead, where you are given a certain degree of freedom in what you write.
{{subst:uw-joke2\|Article}}	Thank you for your contributions to Article, but we are here to write an encyclopedia, so please keep your edits factual and neutral. Our readers are looking for serious articles and will not find joke edits amusing. Remember that Wikipedia is a widely used reference tool, so we have to take what we do here seriously. If you'd like to experiment with editing, use the sandbox instead. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-joke3\|Article}}	Please stop. If you continue to introduce jokes into articles, as you did at Article, you may be blocked from editing. Wikipedia is a serious encyclopedia, and contributions of this type are considered vandalism.

Biography

What to type	What it makes
{{subst:uw-biog1\|Article}}	Hello, I'm [[User:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}\|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}]]. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Article, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on [[User_talk:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}\|my talk page]]. Thank you!
{{subst:uw-biog2\|Article}}	Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to Article. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-biog3\|Article}}	Please stop adding unreferenced or poorly referenced biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Article. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
{{subst:uw-biog4\|Article}}	You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory or otherwise controversial content into an article or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Article.

Neutral point of view

What to type	What it makes
{{subst:uw-npov1\|Article}}	Hello, I'm [[User:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}\|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}]]. Wikipedia 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 Article seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on [[User_talk:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}\|my talk page]]. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-npov2\|Article}}	Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Article. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-npov3\|Article}}	Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at Article, you may be blocked from editing.
{{subst:uw-npov4\|Article}}	You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by inserting commentary or your personal analysis into an article, as you did at Article.

Article ownership

What to type	What it makes
{{subst:uw-own1\|Article}}	Hello. I wanted to let you know that in your recent contributions to Article, you seemed to act as if you were the owner of the page. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia. This means that editors do not own articles, including ones they create, and should respect the work of their fellow contributors. If you create or edit an article, remember that others are free to change its content. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-own2\|Article}}	Please do not assume ownership of articles as you did at Article. If you aren't willing to allow your contributions to be edited extensively or be redistributed by others, please do not submit them. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-own3\|Article}}	Please stop. If you continue to assume ownership of articles, as you did at Article, you may be blocked from editing. Behavior such as this is regarded as disruptive, and is a violation of Wikipedia policy.

External links spam

What to type	What it makes
{{subst:uw-spam1\|Article}}	Hello, I'm Khukri. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added to Article have been removed because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. Take a look at our guidelines about external links. 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.
{{subst:uw-spam2\|Article}}	Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Article. 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 websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-spam3\|Article}}	Please stop. If you continue to add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did at Article, you may be blocked from editing. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings.
{{subst:uw-spam4\|Article}}	You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you insert a spam link, as you did at Article. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines.

Copyright violation / No thanks

What to type

What it makes

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Article article, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text—which means allowing other people to modify it—then you must include on the external site this statement (or something similar): "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later, and under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 License".

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question at the Teahouse. You can also leave a message on my talk page.

==Copyright problem: ==

Hello Template index/User talk namespace! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as [[]], but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted material from other websites or printed works. This article appears to contain work copied from , and therefore to constitute a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policies. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate your contributions, copying content from other websites is unlawful and against Wikipedia's copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators are likely to lose their editing privileges.

If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under license allowed by Wikipedia, then you should do one of the following:

Have the author release the text under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 License (CC BY-SA 4.0) by leaving a message explaining the details at [[]] and send an email with confirmation of permission to "permissions-enwikimedia.org". Make sure they quote the exact page name, ', in their email. See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.'
If you hold the copyright to the work: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 License and GNU Free Documentation License, and note that you have done so on [[]]. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for instructions.
If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted "under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License (CC BY-SA), version 4.0", or that the work is released into the public ___domain, or if you have strong reason to believe it is, leave a note at [[]] with a link to where we can find that note or your explanation of why you believe the content is free for reuse.

It may also be necessary for the text to be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

See Wikipedia:Declaration of consent for all enquiries for a template of the permissions letter the copyright holder is expected to send.

Otherwise, you may rewrite this article from scratch. If you would like to begin working on a new version of the article you may do so at this temporary page. Leave a note at [[]] saying you have done so and an administrator will move the new article into place once the issue is resolved.

Thank you, and please feel welcome to continue contributing to Wikipedia. Happy editing!

Not censored

What to type	What it makes
{{subst:uw-notcensored1\|Article}}	Hello, I'm Khukri. I noticed that you removed topically relevant content from Article. However, Wikipedia is not censored. Please do not remove or censor information that directly relates to the subject of the article, even if the content is negative or offensive in nature. If the content in question involves images, you have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide images that you may find offensive.

{{subst:uw-notcensored2\|Article}}	Please do not remove information from articles, as you did to Article. Wikipedia is not censored, and content is not removed on the sole grounds of perceived offensiveness.

If the content in question involves images, you also have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide the images that you may find offensive. Thank you.

Unsourced

What to type	What it makes
{{subst:uw-unsourced1\|Article}}	Hello, I'm Khukri. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Article, but you didn't provide a reliable source.

If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Moves

What to type	What it makes
{{subst:uw-move1\|Article}}	Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Article, without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name does not follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-move2\|Article}}	Please do not move a page to a title that is harder to follow, or move it unilaterally against naming conventions or consensus, as you did to Article. This includes making page moves while a discussion remains underway. We have some guidelines to help with deciding what title is best for a subject. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Thank you.
{{subst:uw-move3\|Article}}	Please stop. If you continue to move pages to bad titles contrary to naming conventions or consensus, as you did at Article, you may be blocked from editing.
