Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. MrOllie (talk) 23:00, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
Please do not delete or alter legitimate talk page comments from other editors. Such edits are disruptive, and may appear to other editors to be vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Thank you. MrOllie (talk) 23:28, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
- Hello MrOllie,
- Could you explain, I don't know what I did wrong?
- I inserted a completely new section (don't see what can be wrong with that, you also deleted that...)
- I answered on a comment and signed with my name
- I split one answer into two section, I can see that this maybe what you are going to? How would you have done this? Boknooren (talk) 23:38, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
- You have (twice) altered other people's comments in old sections. If you would like to add comments, try clicking on the 'add topic' button on the top of the page. It will automatically create a new section in the proper place (at the bottom of the talk page). Add your comments only there, not in the middle of other sections. Do not split comments into multiple sections. While you technically can choose to reply to decade old comments, you should consider that it isn't very useful as it is very unlikely the people you are responding to are still checking for replies.

- Ow, I didn't know that was how it was supposed to be done. I made the new section with == symbols, preview didn't show me anything different than the other sections. It was closer related with the comments at that location, so I inserted it there (instead of at the bottom). Only looking to contribute, that's all.
- Since you bluntly deleted everything, I don't feel like starting over again. Good night. Boknooren (talk) 23:48, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
- I'm sorry if you are feeling discouraged, but it is also important to maintain the integrity of the talk page. MrOllie (talk) 23:50, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
