Minor Edit[edit]

Hi Hoho155! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor 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. I've noticed this on a number of articles you've edited including a substantial amount of edits made at Emory University. Do you have any connections to Emory University? I'm curious on why most of your edits seem to focus there. I'd also like to point you to WP:LEAD which talks about lead length, and Wikipedia:Take the lead! which makes further recommendations on lead length based on article length. The two wiki links talk more at length in regards to what the lead should and shouldn't cover. WP:BOOSTER and WP:HIGHERED REP do a great job in terms of talking about prestige, breaks down Wikipedia's neutral point of view in more accessible language, and talks about what's generally required to have something pass extremely strong statements. This two sentence in particular stands out: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia to summarize and contextualize information about these complex institutions, not an admissions brochure to convince readers of the quality of the school. Allow the facts to speak for themselves and let the reader decide. Wozal (talk) 03:37, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
