Drive-by tag bombing

[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In your recent edit to Kalighat, you added numberous cleanup templates. Many articles need improvement, and it is fine to tag problems you intend to fix later or that you need help fixing. But drive-by tagging — adding tags for non-obvious or perceived problems without identifying the problem well enough for it to be fixed — is discouraged. This is especially true when the tagging editor is not involved in article development. Tag bombing — placing too many tags — is also unconstructive. It is rarely productive to add more than three article-level tags, even if there are more problems than that.

Focus on the highest priority problems, and avoid tags that overlap in meaning. After those problems have been fixed, more tags can be added as necessary. Do not add tags that are wrong. You added {{no footnotes}}, for example, even through the article has inline citations. Do not apply vague tags, such as {{original research}}, without explanation on the talk page. Please see Wikipedia:Tagging pages for problems for further information on when cleanup templates should or should not be added.

Finally, you marked your edit as minor. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. An edit that calls into question the correctness of an article is not a minor edit. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:57, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
