[edit] 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)
I noticed your recent edit to Hoag, Nebraska does not have an edit summary. 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. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary.

Removing symbols
[edit]In two recent edits you made (Special:Diff/968613614 and Special:Diff/969471524) you removed a large number of symbols from the article. These are not "unecessary extra symbols", as you can see by looking at the article outside of the editor. These are part of Wikitext, which allows Wikipedia articles to have nice formatting and generally be more useful. To take the second edit as an example: the {{short description}} line controls what shows up under the title when searching on mobile devices, the {{Redirect}} line displays the note about the redirect at the top of the page, {{Use dmy dates}} is a signal to bots to use dd/mm/yyyy style dates, and the brackets allow linking to other pages or including images. Without the curly braces or brackets, the software can't determine what these things mean, and so just outputs them as text.
Please don't remove these in the future. If you don't understand why symbols are there, leave them alone. If you need to change them to edit, check in preview mode before saving your edit and see if you can notice what changed; if you still can't figure out what they do, you can ask at the Wikipedia:Help desk.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Tjsynkral (talk) 06:55, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

[edit] You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Bra . Stop doing this. Do not arbitrarily remove links, and do not change the bolding of the article title term to quotes. And do not change the spelling of the titles or references as you did in Comb. The book title used "... An Historical ...". It does not matter if you prefer to use "...A Historical ..." That was the name the book was published under.
Level four since you have continued to do these sorts of edits after your level 3 warning. Meters (talk) 03:48, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
- And please read WP:MINOR. These are not minor edits. Meters (talk) 03:53, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

[edit] You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary, as you did at Tri-City Storm.
As with everyone else has stated above. There will be no more final warnings for arbitrarily removing valid links from articles such as this. Yosemiter (talk) 19:17, 29 December 2021 (UTC)

. —Bagumba (talk) 06:32, 18 August 2022 (UTC)- Hello,
- Please explain how the edits I have made are disruptive. I'm not going in and removing entire paragraphs. Taking out unnecessary punctuation and/or wording that avoids repetition, because repeating things isn't good, makes things easier reading. All the extra [[]] (()) around things, makes it harder to read/is not vandalism. A legit reference was added to an article last night, where needed.
- "These are not "unecessary extra symbols," (isn't true, my words) as you can see by looking at the article outside of the editor. These are part of Wikitext, which allows Wikipedia articles to have nice formatting and generally be more useful.
- Nice formatting means having fewer symbols, which is more helpful/easier to read.
- No links have been arbitrarily removed by me, as was claimed I did.
- The first time or two of editing something on a page, I didn't know that an edit summary was needed. I've summarized what ever-so-minor non-disruptive edits edits were made, since then.
- "...A Historical ..." is grammatically correct, regardless of what article title someone chooses.
- That I'm aware of, have never even edited any part of a reference. Those are purposely left alone, as is.
- Disruptive: causing, tending to cause or caused by disruption; disrupting:
- https://www.dictionary.com/browse/disruptive
- Vandalism would mean going into an article and editing or completely removing part/all of it. Up until now, since my 2nd or 3rd edit, I've included a note of what was done, with no one having a problem, prior to you complaining.
- I don't deserve to be blocked indefinitely for making minor edits/explanation provided.
- Sincerely,
- redngoldtilimdeadncold Redngoldtilimdeadncold (talk) 12:41, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
