Edit summaries

[edit]

Hello, Myrkwosi! Welcome to Wikipedia! Please remembering that in editing, it is important to have accurate edit summaries that address the elements of an edit. Thank you, Watercheetah99 (talk) 21:01, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Third Nigerian Republic, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

  • A missing title error. References show this error when they do not have a title. Please edit the article to add the appropriate title parameter to the reference. (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 09:54, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages.

Information icon Hello, I'm AgisdeSparte. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Nollywood—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks.

Information icon Please do not use misleading edit summaries when making changes to Wikipedia pages. This behavior is viewed as disruptive, and continuation may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Watercheetah99 (talk) 22:27, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Please may I know which of the edit summaries you consider as disruptive? Or do I leave the edit summaries empty instead, if they may not be able to fully capture the scope of the edit? Myrkwosi (talk) 22:43, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Do not leave edit summaries empty if you are making significant changes. The issues with your edit summaries are that they do not fit your edits — "Grammatical fixes" and "Grammatical restructuring" do not properly describe your large edits. In the future, describe each part of the edits you make and slow down at editing, sometimes your "Grammatical fixes" introduce new issues that others have to fix.

Alright; your observation has been noted. Thanks again. Myrkwosi (talk) 23:27, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop. If you continue to remove maintenance templates without resolving the problem that the template refers to, as you did at Oyo State, you may be blocked from editing. - Arjayay (talk) 08:50, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, and duly noted. Myrkwosi (talk) 09:10, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Editing of articles

[edit]

Hi @Myrkwosi, welcome to Wikipedia. I realize you are a new editor. Welcome to the space. I want to call your attention to your edits on some pages like Southern Kaduna People's Union, Middle Belt, and associated pages. When editing, please take care that you don't delete vital points and citations and include terminologies that should be avoided, like the promotion of religious tagging in articles like those related to Southern Kaduna, except where necessary. Also, please avoid erroneous word replacements or adding terminologies like calling Southern Kaduna, "Southern Kaduna senatorial district". Southern Kaduna consists of Local Government Areas distributed in the three senatorial districts of Kaduna State. While it is required that a Wikipedian should be bold enough to edit already written items, a Wikipedian should study the article first and find more citations to counter the claims already written with citations or better still, read and understand the original content from where the citation was made in that portion of the article to get more insight on how best to edit that portion. I have undone a number of your edits for the reason of breaching the above points I made mention of above. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any reservations or questions to ask. I hope this long text helps. Warm regards, Kambai Akau (talk) 20:39, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
