Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Bombing of Nagoya in World War II has been reverted.
Your edit here to Bombing of Nagoya in World War II was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gOE70M9Lno) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. music or video) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 06:24, 13 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Climate change sidebar

edit

Hi, I noticed that you added the climate change sidebar to a few of the articles. I have two concerns/suggestions:

  1. I think the climate change sidebar is rather useless and have said that also on the template's talk page and on the WikiProject Climate Change talk page. Instead, I would favour using the "climate change and society" sidebar or the "climate change mitigation" sidebar. These are a bit more narrow and hence more useful.
  2. I don't think such a sidebar should be in the prime spot of lead image. I think they are better placed further down below, e.g. in the first section that follows the lead section. EMsmile (talk) 13:54, 15 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
