Hi Oofdotwav, you need to (1) leave an edit summary of your edit before saving/publish as a way to communicate with other editor of what you have done since Wikipedia is collabrated work of many editors. Secondly, all content added need to support by source to for verification - see WP:PROVEIT. Furthermore, twitter is not a good source as it is primary source. Source such as from major newspapers would be considered [[WP:IS|independent], reliable sources which is what Wikipedia after. Civility is part of Wikipedia's code of conduct and one of its five pillars so be polite when communicating with other editors. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 01:52, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon 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. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Tick Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks!
