Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that your recent edit to European Parliament did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.
The edit summary field looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary, and then click the "Save" button.
Thanks! -- Toddy1 (talk) 10:32, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
Hi Contributor00001! I noticed that you recently added a new paragraph at European Parliament but marked your edit as a minor edit.[1] This was misleading of you. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. -- Toddy1 (talk) 10:32, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
