Keep it up

Hey, I saw your post on Teahouse and I wanted to let you know that I've been hit with super angry and political editors too who seem to think they own the platform. Though this can be discouraging, I encourage you to keep it up and not let these people run you off Wikipedia. Your contributions matter. Tealbrain (talk) 01:36, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Scare quotes

Please read WP:Scare quotes. I've removed them as well as your redundant addition to the WP:LEAD. Doug Weller talk 06:35, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

Christopher Columbus

Please discuss your changes on the article's talk page before re-instating them. They seem to all be of the form of finding ways to avoid saying "discovery", which is a matter of semantics. Tarl N. (discuss) 19:02, 16 February 2019 (UTC)

Please stop using scare quotes and weasel words such as "so-called"

You really must stop. A very few of your edits have been acceptable but not most of them. You'll see where I've reverted you I've tried to make sure my edits meet WP:NPOV (which most of yours have not). You even put scare quotes into the title of Columbus's letter which effectively changed the title. You need to read Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Words to watch.
