December 2019

[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Wallyfromdilbert. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Tucker Carlson seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 19:56, 11 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 20:30, 11 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm MrX. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Sami's Law, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. - MrX 🖋 12:02, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Help me!

[edit]

Please help me with... On the United World Colleges page, I was trying to edit location by instead changing it to Headquarters, as the location was correct (head office in London, UK) but location is misleading as UWC has tons of locations of their schools and programs across the globe. Headquarters is more of an accurate term. I changed it in thee editing source section but for some reason the entire row disappeared. Could this be reviewed by someone more professional? So sorry!

The template Template:Infobox college doesn't support Headquarters as a parameter... I've undone your edit... you might have to put 'HQ:' before the location I guess - RichT|C|E-Mail 22:27, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Henry Ford change reverted

[edit]

Hi Datwhitearab, I reverted your recent change to the Henry Ford article, where you added the text "considering him to be a revolutionary in the sector". This doesn't make any grammatical sense in the place where you added it, and didn't need saying anyway given that you added it to a sentence that already clearly made the same point you seemed to be trying to make.

As others have noted, you are also abusing the "minor change" tag. This is meant for trivial changes, like fixing a single missing comma or an obvious typo, not for an actual change to the text (even a short one) like this one. Quietbritishjim (talk) 05:02, 27 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

February 2021

[edit]

Information icon Hi Datwhitearab! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Neera Tanden that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

Hi, I was reporting a mere fact and indicated a highly reputable article as my source for the information, which was in the form of one short sentence. Please deducts your time to non trivial matters. Additionally I didn’t even realize that I had checked it was a minor edit. Good day to you Datwhitearab (talk) 08:21, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
