Hello, I'm Butlerblog. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you unlinked one or more redlinks from A Slipping-Down Life. Often redlinks can be helpful, so we don't remove them just because they are red. They help improve Wikipedia by attracting editors to create needed articles.

In addition, clicking on the "What links here" special link (in the Wikipedia Toolbox at left) on a missing article shows how many—and which—articles depend on that article being created. This can help prioritize article creation. Redlinks are useful! Please only remove a redlink if you are pretty sure that it is to a non-notable topic and not likely ever to be created. When removing redlinks, you need to explain the removal as they may not necessarily be unintentional. ButlerBlog (talk) 12:47, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

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.

Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Scott Brady. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Your edit undid a properly formatted filmography. There is an established Manual of Style for filmographies. Please see MOS:FILMOGRAPHY. ButlerBlog (talk) 13:10, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

A significant number of your recent edits go against existing Manual of Style guidelines. The "biggie" is the filmographies, as noted above. I'm sure it was a good deal of work to go through and reformat them to what you thought was OK. Unfortunately, your edits on these don't follow MOS:FILMOGRAPHY. Also, don't just indiscriminately remove red links. You might think this is helpful - and in some cases, it is - but you need to give a reason for the removal. Red links can be useful for the system to know what new articles are needed. So blindly removing red links isn't helpful. See WP:REDDEAL and give a reason for your removal. In fact, none of your edits had an edit summary. While not required, giving an edit summary helps other editors know what your intention was. ButlerBlog (talk) 13:25, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
