February 2020 edit

  Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to J. C. D. Clark, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Doug Weller talk 19:55, 27 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Doug Weller. I noticed that you recently removed content from J. C. D. Clark 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. 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)

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. Thanks!

January 2023 edit

 

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

Special:Diff/1131187061 - just want to make you check about the link you added. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 16:05, 4 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Ouch!!! Sorry, will (try to) not let it happen again. Trident5000 (talk) 18:40, 6 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for November 14 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited L'Assommoir, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page George Moore. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:07, 14 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi, that was not a link to a disambiguation page, it's to George Moore (novelist). Cheers :-) Trident5000 (talk) 14:41, 22 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
