While welcoming your contributions to wikipedia in general, I have noticed that many of your edits feature changing British English to American English for no specific reason. I'd suggest you check [[WP:COFAQ#ENGLISH|Wikipedia:FAQ]] which outlines the wikipedia approach to spelling, and also the [[MOS:RETAIN|manual of style]] which discusses in more detail the reasons for changing and article or not.

Your recent edits
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
- With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 20:09, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Ray of Light. Your edits have been or will be reverted or removed.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. And you thought nobody will notice your vandalism eh? —IB [ Poke ] 09:44, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- IndianBio when you wrote "and you thought nobody will notice your vandalism eh?" I really didn't mean to vandalize at all. I was just trying to take care of bare URLs as were laid out on the Wikipedia:Cleanup#2015_posts -- I don't mean to post anything about Adele. I was just using the WYSIWYG tool to change bare URLs into proper Citations and I even remember putting in the UPenn/NYU PDF article. You did the right thing but I was surely not vandalizing. I am sorry you believed that to be the case. I always recommend "assume good intent." I am new here so I am trying to follow the Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle method. Sorry if I pissed you off.
American and British etc spellings
While welcoming your contributions to wikipedia in general, I have noticed that many of your edits feature changing British English to American English for no specific reason. I'd suggest you check Wikipedia:FAQ which outlines the wikipedia approach to spelling, and also the manual of style which discusses in more detail the reasons for changing and article or not.
