Information icon Hello, I'm McGeddon. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Built environment without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Hello. Are you copypasting your version of the article from a text editor? You're stripping out all of the wikilinks (the blue links to other articles), removing sources, adding footnotes ("[24]") which don't seem to exist, and introducing some oddities like a double-F'd "affect".
Your assistance in improving the article is greatly appreciated, but pasting a slightly broken replacement article over the top of what's there isn't immediately helpful. Either make your edits more clearly and gradually (it looks like you're adding some new content about depression, but this is somewhat lost when you're copying over the whole article) or work on a draft in your sandbox and copy it over when it's all working (ideally getting some feedback on Talk:Built environment first). --McGeddon (talk) 15:20, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Have started a thread at Talk:Built_environment#User:Tikvah17.27s_rewrite - we should work out the best way to get this content integrated. --McGeddon (talk) 15:40, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Built environment, from its old location at User:Tikvah17/sandbox. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. /wiae /tlk 02:18, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
