Elementbox
Hi thanks for all your help so far! Just one thing - could you put the element box template under the "Design" header please? Thanks Lachlan (Talk | contribs) (an admin) 16:23, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
- Also just so you know, if you add "Terrain" to the infobox in the
|category2=parameter, or 3 and 4, the category is automatically added so you don't need to add the category to the page manually.Lachlan (Talk | contribs) (an admin) 16:55, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
Wikipedia
Hello, please don't paste stuff in from other websites, particularly Wikipedia. Thanks Lachlan (Talk | contribs) (an admin) 08:22, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
Photos
Hello, I'm deleting the photoraphs you have uploaded as they don't appear to be yours. If any of them were taken by you please let me know and I'll restore them. While your edits are appreciated, you must stop copying content and images from other websites. Would be good to speak to you on here or on the Discord server.

Hi, I fixed the Disney World template for you, it wasn't working because you're using the wrong parameter name. You can see the standard format for the template on its page, though admittedly that page is not complete just now. I see what you're trying to do with one box for all the Disney parks combined, I would like to add this functionality in the future but it's not really possible with the template we have now.

Thunderbird image
Hi, I see that the image you uploaded of Thunderbird is from Flickr. If this is your own image, show this to me by changing the copyright info on Flickr to a Creative Commons license. Otherwise I will delete it. You're welcome to upload images that are already under a Creative Commons license, or any taken by yourself. It is not a requirement to add images to Coasterpedia - if you haven't taken any pictures yourself, don't add any here. This is your final warning, you will receive a longer block if this warning is ignored. Which would be a shame as your edits here are (generally) useful.

Measurement templates
Hi may I ask why you keep reverting my edits? I will usually try to leave an explanation in the edit summary so please check the history page first, and explain your edits using the talk page or edit summary function. The {{mph}} templates are necessary to allow the site to convert measurements to km/h.

- I have blocked you for a short while. While you've made many useful edits, you can't keep ignoring the messages sent to you. Please decide whether you'd like to keep editing here. If so, you're welcome to return but please take on board the following tips:
- Start using the edit summary function at least sometimes.
- Try not to make several edits on the same page in succession as this clogs up the history page - use the preview button.
- Start using the talk pages (or Discord).
- Don't revert other's edits without an explanation.

Hello, another admin blocked you as he was concerned about your edits and your userpage, which falsely claims that you/re a wiki admin. I realise you just copied it from mine, but I had decided to ignore it. In the end I decided to let the three day block run as it seems a day is not very long. Once your block is up, please take the false info down from your user page, and you may return to the wiki. You are welcome of course to request admin rights in the future once you have (a lot) more experience! If you have any questions, add a message below (which you can still do while blocked) and I'll get back to you.

Block
Hi, you have been blocked for one year. The reason is that you have continued to upload other's photographs as your own while ignoring all warnings given to you. Lachlan (Talk | contribs) (an admin) 23:08, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
