talk page etiquette

edit

Hi, CenfusRex. I noticed you've been changing some talk page use of "Alternate" to "alternative" at Talk:Alternate successions to the English throne. In general, it's considered bad form to correct other people's comments, even when they are in error. In this case, the comments are not actually in error - one meaning of the adjective "alternate" is as a synonym for "alternative". john k (talk) 17:29, 7 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

November 2019

edit

  This is your only warning; if you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory content into an article or any other Wikipedia page again, as you did at Lindsay Hoyle, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.

Exhibit

edit

To each his own, but "exhibit" to refer to the overall show is pretty common North American usage, attested to the 19th century. Its even a draft sense in the latest OED edition. I don't have any intention of reverting since either way is fine, but I felt compelled to speak in its defense. Sauzer (talk) 21:01, 22 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Curly apostrophes and quotation marks

edit

Please do not use these and definitely do not change straight marks to curly ones. That is directly counter to Wikipedia's Manual of Style. Thanks! -- Fyrael (talk) 21:01, 30 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hyphens

edit

Hi! I don’t know if English is your first language or not, but generally this is not how hyphens are used, on Wikipedia or elsewhere in the language. Thanks. — Trey Maturin 21:48, 20 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
