February 2023[edit]

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Afemai people, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Materialscientist (talk) 11:16, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Overlinking[edit]

Hi Omowumi2023 - I have reverted a few of your edits, such as at Edo State, for overlinking - so I have come to explain the reason.
As explained at ‎ WP:OVERLINKING we only link the first use of a term in an article, and we do not normally link:-

  • Everyday words understood by most readers.
  • Names familiar to most readers, including;- major countries, major cities, major languages, major nationalities/ethnicities and major religions
  • Common units of measurement and dates
  • Circular links back to the same article

There are many articles where these are already, incorrectly, linked, but we are trying to reduce this, not increase it - many thanks - Arjayay (talk) 17:56, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at University of Benin (Nigeria). Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.
You were clearly warned about overlinking above, but have just continued doing it. Please stop - Arjayay (talk) 21:53, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please read and follow WP:DATEFORMAT and check your changes so you don't leave meaningless statements like "the 1st of July in the 1971and accredited" - Arjayay (talk) 22:03, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at University of Benin (Nigeria), you may be blocked from editing.
You have been warned twice, above, about overlinking, but are still doing it. Please stop - Arjayay (talk) 22:05, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
