  Hello, I'm Egghead06. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Manuel Lanzini without 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; I restored the removed content. 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.

Adminship

TeaLover1996, if you're genuinely interested in adminship then I would like to reiterate what Fuhghettaboutit said about reading over the available material and namely WP:RFAADVICE. It's a lengthy read but doing so should give you a complete idea of what's involved. Further, I would suggest you participate in a few on-going RFAs. Seeing how they run and the comments left by the community will help you decide whether or not you are ready. Lastly, there are certain individuals that could likely assist in assessing your potential candidacy before you run. While I disagree with him on the current RFA running, Kudpung (permitting he's willing) would be someone I would highly recommend for such a thing. If he assessed you as being ready to run you would almost surely pass an RFA. Mkdwtalk 03:26, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
If you would additionally read user:Kudpung/RfA criteria, and if at some stage in the future your are able to check all the boxes, you would be almost 99.9% sure of a pass, and I would gladly nominate you. Avoid however, working in such a way that looks as if you are working towards becoming an admin - remember that first and foremost we are here to build and encyclopedia. Happy editing!

@Qed237: Any advice? TeaLover1996 (talk) 14:03, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
Not much advice, I have already told you several times to focus on your editing instead of everything else. You would probably need at least one more year before considering being an admin. Qed237 (talk) 14:07, 23 July 2015 (UTC)

  Hi there! 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 Gary Speed 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. Thanks! Theroadislong (talk) 20:31, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
