Editors need to cooperate[edit]

A wp:content dispute is not wp:vandalism

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Albania. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Jim1138 (talk) 21:51, 26 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion[edit]

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:Mingling2 reported by User:Jim1138 (Result: ). Thank you. Jim1138 (talk) 13:09, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

March 2014[edit]

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

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. D P 14:17, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

July 2014[edit]

Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Albania with this edit, without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 07:15, 28 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I more than second what Jim1138 is saying. Your revert history and your recent edits , show a person that is here for a religious propaganda . Gjirokastra15 (talk) 13:48, 28 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Religion in Zhejiang and Heilongjiang[edit]

Hello Mingling2!

I have noticed that you have added data about demographics of religions in Zhejiang and Heilongjiang, taken from the 2012 CFPS survey. However, when I consulted the pdf report (which now seems to be inaccessible, although other copies of the report can be found online), I found data just for five provinces (Shanghai, Liaoning, Henan, Gansu and Guangdong) at page 13. Registering on the CFPS website through a work or student email address one can download the full report. Is it in this way that you have obtained the figures for other provinces?--Aethelwolf Emsworth (talk) 14:40, 30 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please explain why you have combined data for "Non religious" and adherents of Folk religions? JimRenge (talk) 14:56, 30 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That is right: from religion in China: «Although about 90% of respondents self-identified as "irreligious", the authors estimate that only 6.3% of all respondents are truly irreligious (as in they neither believe nor worship gods or spirits). The authors hypothesize that many of the respondents might have a biased understanding of religion and what it means to be religious.». --Aethelwolf Emsworth (talk) 15:38, 30 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

January 2015[edit]

Unsourced info[edit]

Hello, I'm 220 of Borg. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Dammartin-en-Goële, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page.

Please do not add or change content, as you did to Belitung, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. JimRenge (talk) 13:33, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Islam in Europe, 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'd like to experiment with test edits. Happy New Year!

February 2015[edit]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Religion in France, you may be blocked from editing. Thelimiter (talk) 13:37, 5 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning. You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Religion in France. DVdm (talk) 14:02, 5 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for March 15[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Islam in Indonesia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Indonesian people. 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.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Fatima Sana Shaikh. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 23:08, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

February 2017[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed maintenance templates from Religion in Ukraine. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Please see Help:Maintenance template removal for further information on when maintenance templates should or should not be removed. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Religion in Spain, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Iryna Harpy (talk) 02:36, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

September 2018[edit]

Your recent editing history at Islam 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.

Unblock request[edit]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

Mingling2 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Its been over 2 years since I was blocked from abusing multiple accounts. During that time I was quite busy doing other activities in life. However, now I have some time to make genuine contributions to Wikipedia. Therefore I think that the block is no longer necessary because I understand what I was blocked for and will not do it again,

and will make productive contributions instead. Regards Mingling2 (talk) 05:05, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

Following your request, I have unblocked your account. Welcome back. PhilKnight (talk) 20:00, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What subjects do you want to edit, if unblocked. PhilKnight (talk) 10:32, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@PhilKnight I would love to edit country, geography and religion related subjects! Regards Mingling2 (talk) 10:36, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
