Alexandrine Parakeet
Hi Pranish You have just restored the biggest load of ruibbish I have ever read on a Wikipedia bird page. It would be helpful if you actually read the talk page before restoring the materail I removed. I have no problem with having an aviculture section but the issues highlighted in 2009 - "Based on the maintenance templates on this article that I found on WP:BIRDS, I did some copy-editing of the article. There was (and largely still is) a huuuge amount of information on capitivity with opinions and recommendations on "HOW TO" keep these birds in cages, exhaustive information on different types of diet in capitivity with absolutely no sources cited. I have trimmed these and re-written bits of these. I hope the editor who put it in will take note of the requirements to provide in-text citations for these if they want to add it back. Also, maintain a tone of an encyclopedia and not that of a "HOW TO keep parakeets" manual." are still there. The material is not good enough for wikpedia and therefore needs removing. If someone wants to re-create the section they need to write it properly. At the moment it's rubbish - Jon Harper — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.158.162.164 (talk) 16:28, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
- Hello there, I've reverted that edit on Alexandrine parakeet because I saw pure Vandalism as you blanked two sections without any Edit Summary! I'll do some research about it, and next time please explain what you really improved on articles on Edit Summary! Pranish|Message 16:37, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

How can I check my edits count on mainspace? Pranish|Message 20:07, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
- When you look at your contributions, you'll find a link at the bottom labeled "edit count". That link points to an external tool which provides an edit count by namespace. Huon (talk) 20:14, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
What did I do wrong?
Hi there, Sorry I'm new to this . I've added citations to the edits that I made what did I do wrong to get it reverted It was genuine information about the game. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tdma109 (talk • contribs) 16:13, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Hello Tdma109, oops!! sorry, I've fixed it.
