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:

• User contributions
• Recent changes
• Watchlists
• Revision diffs
• IRC channels
• Related changes
• New pages list
• Article editing history

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!--Renat 23:32, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

June 2021: Please don't cite blogs to support Wikipedia content

insideasiatours.com/blog
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. However, please do not use unreliable sources such as blogs, your own website, websites and publications with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight, expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, that are promotional in nature, or that rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions, as one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. If you require further assistance, please look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse. Thank you.--Quisqualis (talk) 22:17, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for May 18

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2022 Oregon gubernatorial election, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Hill. 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.)

Hi RadleyMadish! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Betsy Johnson that may not have been. "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. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. Graywalls (talk) 22:52, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Hello RadleyMadish. You're edits seem to be minor to me. You changed the image in one edit, edited the structure of one sentence in another edit, and added one citation in another edit. Jon698 (talk) 22:57, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• @Jon698:, WP:MINOR is not what "seems" minor in the interpretation of editors. It has a very specific definition. Rephrasing, re-locating things within prose, and the addition of external link absolutely are not minor in this context. Graywalls (talk) 00:17, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• @Graywalls: Please read the thing at the top of the page. "It is not one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, but rather intends to describe some aspect(s) of Wikipedia's norms, customs, technicalities, or practices. It may reflect varying levels of consensus and vetting." Minor edits are purely what seems minor. There is no definitive nature of minor edits. Jon698 (talk) 00:19, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Also read "A good rule of thumb is that edits consisting solely of spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of the content should be flagged as minor edits." This is literally what RadleyMadish did. Jon698 (talk) 00:20, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• You missed the addition of external link, and addition of thing like "subsequently dismissed". Graywalls (talk) 00:21, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• A completely unnecessary and pointless mountain you are making out of a molehill. Those are minor edits that barely change the page. Jon698 (talk) 00:24, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, thanks for the feedback. I'll be more thoughtful in marking minor edits in the future This was... RadleyMadish (talk) 23:47, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!
