Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, but at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Clydesdale horse, did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted (undone) by an automated computer program called ClueBot NG.
- Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Note that human editors do monitor recent changes to Wikipedia articles, and administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism.
- ClueBot NG makes very few mistakes, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been considered as unconstructive, please read about it, report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
- If you need help, please see our
help pages, and if you can't find what you are looking for there, please feel free to place "
{{ helpme}}" on your talk page and someone will drop by to help. - The following is the log entry regarding this warning: Clydesdale horse was changed by Schnazer Girl (u) (t) ANN scored at 0.930063 on 2011-12-20T22:03:11+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot NG ( talk) 22:03, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi Schnazer Girl and welcome to Wikipedia! Unfortunately, your contributions to Clydesdale horse have been reverted. This article is considered a good article on Wikipedia, which means that it has been assessed at a certain level of quality. In order to keep this status, the information in the article must be sourced to reliable sources and must follow certain other guidelines. The information that you are adding to the Clydesdale article is not specific to Clydesdales - it pertains to all draft horses - and some of it is also debatable (stall size, for example). Also, Wikipedia is not a how-to guide. Please do not re-add the information without first gaining consensus on the article talk page. Dana boomer ( talk) 22:17, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Schnazer Girl, I have again had to revert your contributions to the Clydesdale horse article. Please read my comments and the linked pages above before readding this information. Many of the sources that you added don't follow Wikipedia's policy on reliable sources (I can explain more about this if you would like me to, please just ask!), and much of the information was either duplicated elsewhere in the article or was more pertinent to horses/draft horses in general than to Clydesdales in particular. Please discuss the additions that you would like to make, either here or on the article talk page, before readding. Readding information without discussion is a bad thing, and if you persist could result in you being blocked from editing. Please let me know if you have any questions, Dana boomer ( talk) 21:30, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
