October 2023

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Flag of Mauritania, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Please see Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Capital letters. Peaceray (talk) 19:26, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 2

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Mohamed Ould Bilal, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Equity Party. 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) 17:48, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

August 2024

Hi Elinrubio6! 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. Thank you. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 11:14, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

I notice that every edit you have made has been marked as a minor edit. Please be aware that marking an edit as minor, when it is not, is considered poor etiquette. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 06:29, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

Please stop

Please stop making cosmetic changes which do not improve articles. This includes updating the date on maintenance template, fixing re-directs that aren't broken, and adding italics to section headings. I may have missed a few. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the manual of style. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 15:09, 19 October 2024 (UTC)

Further to the above request, which you appear to have ignored since 19 October 2024. Please do not fix redirects that are NOT broken. I have reverted the two edits to the Minister of Foreign Affairs (Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic) for this reason. Additionally, please do not "correct" the spelling of wiki-linked article titles that are supported by sources. In this case "Malainine Sadik" appears to be the established English usage, while "Melainine Sadik" appears to be an alternative spelling more commonly used in other languages. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 01:48, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

I have also reverted your edit to Coat of arms of Western Sahara for similar reasons, as your changes were not an improvement to an article that was not broken. Additionally, please do not change the date on article maintenance clean-up tags unless you actually fix the problem. (See WP:MTR for more.) The date indicates how long a clean-up problem has existed in an article and can be used to prioritise the clean-up of older articles, first. Changing the date is potentially disruptive to the clean-up process. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 02:37, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

I also undone your edits to articles about Sidi Ahmed, 2005 El Mreiti base attack, Sidi and Islam in Mauritania. In the article about Sufian Tayeh, your edit emphasised additional details about his death that I thought were better placed in the body of the article. Please see MOS:LEAD and WP:LEADFOLLOWSBODY for an in-depth explanation of how the article lead section should be written. Your edits to the Saudi–Egypt Causeway article changed redirects that were NOTBROKEN and in the case of the Bridge of the Horns change a redirect link that took the reader to the appropriate sections in an article that discussed the bridge and substituted a less useful link to the lead of the article that was not relevant. Such changes are not WP:RF|helpful to readers]]. Which is one more reason why your changes are undesirable. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 06:57, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

Misleading edit summaries

Please do not use misleading edit summaries when making changes to Wikipedia pages, as you did to Jouleibib. This behavior is viewed as disruptive, and continuation may result in loss of editing privileges. I notice that since being warned in August 2024, you have continued to mark your edits as "Minor" and added the text "Wiki page updated." This edit summary does not assist other editors identify what you have changed and why you have done so. Furthermore, it suggests you are engaging in disruptive editing for no useful purpose. I am reverting the change you made to the article about Jouleibib for this reason. If you think I am wrong to do so, please feel free to reply here to this message. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 22:46, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

National varieties of English

Hello. In a recent edit, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the first author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. CMD (talk) 12:52, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
