Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to Canada Goose. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. Rklawton 17:39, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
- An honest mistake isn't vandalism, so it looks like I made one as well. There's been a rather persistent vandal who creates new accounts to target this article and a few others. I thought your account was another such case. Sorry about the inconvenience. Cheers, Rklawton 01:56, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Please use the edit summary
I almost reverted your recent edits to Academy Award, because you removed large blocks of text without any explanation. Please always summarize your edits; it is very helpful to others who are reviewing changes to the article. —PurpleRAIN 21:22, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for your explanation. I think it would be worthwhile even on your minor edits to provide a short edit summary. It saves people from having to view the diff to know what your changes were. A simple tag like "spelling", "punctuation", "cleanup", etc. is way more informative than nothing at all. If you don't want to type that much, you can even abbreviate them.
- There is an option in Special:Preferences that will warn you whenever you neglect to provide an edit summary, which can help you remember.
- I'm not trying to come down on you; I appreciate your edits. I'm just making suggestions that will make it easier for the next person that comes along.
- Have a great day. —PurpleRAIN 15:11, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
