Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Zero Hour (Star Trek: Enterprise). Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf) 16:57, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

My edits were clearly in good faith. There was no need to accuse me of disruptive editing if you read the edit summaries or looked at the diffs. The edits of Tom Reding appeared to be disruptive, ignoring the guidelines. I clearly explained in my edit summary and quoted the documentation. I was following guidelines not knowing that they had only recently been changed. Please explain your changes in English. The WP:SIMPLE rules still apply to experienced editors. If you explain WHY you are doing something and not just WHAT you are doing then unnecessary confusion is more likely to be avoided.

You might be familiar with the phrase "premature optimization" because that is what is happened here, if you'd explained in plain English that "{{Good article}} goes at the top" this might have been avoided.

Also Tom Reding also seemed to have mistaken {{Memory Alpha}} for a Navbox template and in an apparent effort to fix a formatting error I couldn't see was creating a list formatting inconsistency I could see.

If you have any comments about how to improve the Star Trek episode article please comment on the article talk page. -- 109.79.67.213 (talk) 22:06, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
