User talk:Hectorcx
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks!

Comments on your recent contributions
[edit]Hello! I've noticed recently that you've begun making some major edits to Wikipedia. While I appreciate your apparent enthusiasm, I would like to point out a few things that will make your contributions better. First, when adding information, it is essential that everything is sourced. Without proper in-line citations, the information cannot be considered valid for our purposes. I removed the information you added at Age of Revolution for that reason, and I seriously considered doing the same at Children's Crusade (1963) (I left it for now, but don't be surprised if someone else takes issue with the information). Second, you cannot simply copy and paste text into Wikipedia articles. You should add formatting and wikilinks so that readers are able to easily read the information and access relevant topics. Moreover, Wikipedia is not a place for essays, so the style should be changed to a more encyclopedic tone. Additionally, if you are copying information from other sources, you might be infringing on copyright, which will get your edits deleted.
Finally, I must insist that you not edit others' user pages, as you did with mine and Chestsuva. I reverted the edits on my page, and while I didn't do the same for the other user, I wouldn't be surprised if they do the same thing. If you want to thank a user or start a conversation with them, please use their talk pages, like this. I've provided a link to my user talk page here if you're interesting in discussing things further.
I hope that with these changes, you can help myself and fellow editors make Wikipedia the best resource possible. Thanks! RunningTiger123 (talk) 01:41, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
Editing on others' userpages
[edit]Constructive contributions are appreciated and strongly encouraged, but your recent edit to the userpage of another user may be considered vandalism. I have reverted the edits you made on my userpage, all thanks to RunningTiger123 for mentioning or I would not have noticed. In general, it is considered polite to avoid substantially editing others' userpages without their permission. Instead, please bring the matter to their talk page and let them edit their user page themselves if they agree on a need to do so. Please refer to Wikipedia:User page for more information on User page etiquette. Thank you. Chestsuva (talk) 02:59, 30 November 2020 (UTC) shut up nerdddddd lmao u gon revert this too what a loserrr

[edit]Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Asher Angel. 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. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 05:50, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
