Hello Ericksmd3839 - Have just restored an earlier version stating 'unhelpful edits'. You changed the figures given in refs to your own; you added several items to existing refs that did not support the info; you added uncited info; on cognition you simply rephrased a previous edit and entered it as repetition. Material ought not to be inserted that is uncited, And why change figures? without a supporting new ref? Best --Iztwoz (talk) 17:02, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
