My intentions
[edit]Hello. I am FriendlyNeighborhoodAspie. I am here primarily to make minor improvements to various articles I encounter. I love Wikipedia, as it has given me endless information, and I want to do everything I can do improve it. I will always act in good faith and honesty. Please forgive me if I make edits that are inaccurate, wordy, or otherwise flawed. I will try to minimize such errors and maximize constructiveness. Thank you.

[edit] Hi FriendlyNeighborhoodAspie! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a 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. Happy editing. Raladic (talk) 20:01, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- I see. Thank you for clearing that up. I am new to editing, so I may not be familiar with some technicalities. FriendlyNeighborhoodAspie (talk) 20:08, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for August 2
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Wind turbine syndrome, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Stress. 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) 19:54, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
changes within Wikilinks
[edit]Hey. FNA! Good to see you trying to clean things up. I thought I best point out something you should be cautious of, which is something you did in this edit on Faith Versus Fact. You made a very correct grammatical change, but in doing so you changed the text within a Wikilink, and suddenly it was pointing to a non-existent page. Any time you change the text within a simple Wikilink, you should make sure not only that it still links to something (i.e., it's a blue link), but that it links to the same article that it did before. With a system where "peanut" and "peanuts" link to two totally different articles, any change within the link text might cause a problem. I have fixed this one by making a pipe to the old text (which is the lazy way; it probably ought have a new redirect page created for the grammatically proper version), so you don't need to worry about it now, but keep an eye on that in the future. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 19:57, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- I see. Thank you very much for pointing that out! FriendlyNeighborhoodAspie (talk) 20:01, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
