June 2011[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to John Lamont (Scottish politician), did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. The reverted edit can be found here. Thank you. Vrenator (talk) 12:02, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The recent edit you made to John Lamont (Scottish politician) constitutes vandalism, and has been reverted. Please do not continue to vandalize pages; use the sandbox for testing. Thank you. --some jerk on the Internet (talk) 12:03, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

July 2011[edit]

Please stop adding unreferenced controversial biographical content to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Gordon Smith (footballer born September 1954). 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.
