Information icon Hi Markadams555! I noticed that you recently made an edit and marked it as "minor", but it 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. Belbury (talk) 13:36, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for pointing that out. The edits I made were solely intended to address grammatical and readability issues or, in a few instances, to slightly improve the clarity of the text—without changing its original meaning. I understand the importance of accurately using the "minor edit" label on Wikipedia and will be more mindful of this distinction moving forward. I appreciate your guidance.

Information icon Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. However, please do not use unreliable sources such as blogs, wikis, personal websites, and websites and publications with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight. These sources may express views that are widely acknowledged as pushing a particular point-of-view, sometimes even extremist, being promotional in nature, or relying heavily on rumors and personal opinions. One of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. If you require further assistance, please look at Help:Menu/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse. [1] MrOllie (talk) 12:50, 14 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
