Little Amal[edit]

Welcome, and thank you for joining Wikipedia and making your first two edits. For guidelines, see Help:Introduction.

Unfortunately your edits were reverted because you have removed material which matched existing citations, and you have added material which contradicted that, without explanation. Please do not remove templates or attempt to rewrite them. Please discuss the matter on the talk page of the article, before making large, ambitious edits.

I have asked you to please discuss major edits on the talkpage of the article before carrying them out, but you have not done that. The reason why I asked you to discuss on the talk page is that some of your edits contain errors or they contradict pre-existing citations. Your major edits may contain correct and useful changes, but they are hidden among the errors, and it would take me hours to sort out which is which.

If you do not wish to discuss your edits beforehand, then I suggest that you make changes one sentence (or part-sentence) at a time, with citations where necessary. (i.e. make one small edit and wait for a couple of days for it to be checked). I am suggesting that method, because it is possible to assess a small change on its individual merit, without a wholesale reversion of your work. That is the easiest way for a new editor to progress successfully here. On this type of complex and carefully-constructed article, which has already been checked and peer-reviewed, a large edit containing errors will damage its quality considerably. Small changes which can be easily monitored is the way forward for an inexperienced and new editor.

However, if you persist in inserting your point of view into the article again and again, without discussion, you will find your edits reverted, deleted or changed each time. The skills required in editing Wikipedia have a steep learning curve. Small edits, one at a time, is the way to learn, achieve and progress. I am not going to discuss the content of the article here - the place for that is the talk page of the article. If you wish to explain why you have made certain changes, please do that on Talk:Little Amal. Storye book (talk) 17:08, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

January 2022[edit]

Hello, I'm Serols. I noticed that in this edit to Little Amal, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Serols (talk) 15:43, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
