Thanks from Italy (near the border of France and Switzerland, in the Alpine region) 80Me (talk) 22:14, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Italian is my native language, and I follow actively the events of my country. Thanks again! 80Me (talk) 22:35, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please use edit summaries

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that one or more recent edit(s) you made did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account, you can give yourself a reminder by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary (or the default undo summary), and then click the "Save" button. Thanks! Spideog (talk) 22:42, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary links

Hello, 80Me, welcome to Wikipedia. I have just reversed a few of your edits because they contained overlinking, where unnecessary links are added when they are not needed, contributing to a "sea of blue" effect where too much of an article's text is blue because of too many links.

Common and widely-recognised words (teenager, China, Ukraine) should generally not be linked because they are widely understood, requiring no additional explanation by linking.

You can read more about Wikipedia's linking policies and recommendations at these articles:

2024 in Italy

Hi 80Me. Thank you for starting to use edit summaries and I encourage you to use them consistently; they make your edits easier to understand.

Meanwhile, I have changed two of your edits in 2024 in Italy. You provided links to Wikipedia articles for the words "public transport" and "strike". As I explained above on 27 October, "Common and widely-recognised words ... should generally not be linked because they are widely understood, requiring no additional explanation by linking." This is standard Wikipedia policy, and I included links in my comment so you could read more about that. Spideog (talk) 18:25, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
