Happy editing! TornadoLGS (talk) 21:31, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
Focus on constructive contribution
[edit]I assume good faith, but this is now the third case of interference. Perhaps focus on constructive contributions, rather than removals, if you are starting out? Hundnase (talk)
A little explanation
[edit]Hello. You may have gotten a message saying that your edits at Wakuthi Marawili were reverted. I just wanted to let you know that this was not because there was anyting wrong with you edit. Rather, another user had vandalized the article not long before you made your edits. Because you and others edited the vandalized text, restoring an earlier version was the only real way of fixing the issue. I just wanted to let you know since getting reverted can be discouraging for a new editor. TornadoLGS (talk) 21:35, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
Policy on removal of content
[edit]For removing content from an article it is usually necessary to explain why it was important in the description section of your edit. As Wikipedia is a learning resource, many editors, including myself, will be very hesitant to actively remove parts of an article, and the Wikipedia vandalism detector might mark it as bad faith. Additionally, if the thing you wish to remove is large, its own section, sourced, or has had someone attempt to remove it in the past, only to be undone, it is important to discuss the potential removal on the talk page before going through with it. On smaller articles where you will likely not get a response on the talk page, you can go through with the edit after leaving the topic up for a few days. I've noticed this is your first day editing, so I would like to wish you a happy time editing, and I want to stress that having some of your edits reverted is a very normal part of getting started on Wikipedia, in my experience pretty much everyone has that string of like 20 edits of a specific type in a row that they didn't know violated some policy.

Scranton - Joe Biden
[edit]I manually undid your edits adding information regarding Scranton being the birthplace of Joe Biden. President Biden is already listed under, Notable People, Government, which is the appropriate place for that information. Chalon10 (talk) 03:28, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
False warning
[edit]Please let me know why you gave me a false warning for correctly reverting someone's edit? Please don't do it again, as you're a new user on Wikipedia. GoodHue291 (talk) 18:50, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
On reverting
[edit]Hi, I revert and edit, acknowledging the edit you reverted as being in good faith. Unless you are reverting obvious vandalism, you should explain why you are reverting in your edit summary. Especially if it is a good faith edit. TornadoLGS (talk) 01:37, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
Page moves
[edit]If you want to request a name change you need to do it using Wikipedia:Changing username, you can't just move your user pages to the desired new name.-- Ponyobons mots 19:37, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
