Cleanup needed

Obversa, I came across Narragansett Pacer which led me to several other article you added content to. Here are some things you should read. For one, you need to look at the guidelines for WP:OVERLINKing as your content in multiple articles is highly overlinked. Also, read MOS:IMAGES including when to use the parameter "upright" to reduce the size of upright-oriented images, where to position the code for an image (hint: next to the content it is illustrating), as well as when not to use a period at the end of image captions. Read Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia especially the preferred format of the edit summary when you copy (not using "Content added from", which is your standard). I know that's a lot, but the last one is important, and the first one is just highly annoying. ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 08:10, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop contacting me, and "monitoring" my edits on articles. It is coming across as creepy, and makes me very uncomfortable, especially after previous interactions. I understand that you may have good-faith intentions, but at this point, your interference and micromanagement of my edit(s) is causing me distress. (WP:HOUNDING: "The important component of hounding is disruption to another user's own enjoyment of editing, or disruption to the project generally, for no overridingly constructive reason. Even if the individual edits themselves are not disruptive per se, 'following another user around', if done to cause distress, or if accompanied by tendentiousness, personal attacks, or other disruptive behavior, may become a very serious matter and could result in blocks and other editing restrictions.")

Okay, I'll try to remember not to contact you in the future. However, I am not monitoring your edits. I happened to come across something based on my daily rounds of my watchlists—in this case the use of "Montgomery" without a full citation. Using an "insource" search to see if I could locate the missing full citation, that's when I found a cluster of articles with the same issues. If I don't have the time or resources to correct things I find, then I will utilize WP:TAGGING. It's not personal. I'm sorry if it came across as hounding, however my purpose was to improve those articles. The tips above were to help avert a repetition on other articles going forward (per WP:User talk pages). ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 19:10, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
