Edit summaries

In this edit, you made extensive changes, marked the edit as "minor", and wrote the edit summary "only corrected 2 very little typos". This looks suspicious. The edit summary is clearly false. The edit itself looks constructive; but by using a dishonest edit summary you risk appearing untrustworthy. Maproom ( talk) 12:30, 25 October 2016 (UTC) reply

there appears to be a new project

wp:newspapers - if i read right - that is going to potentially cause one hell of confusion in relation to what to tag for talk pages and so on - potentiallly... not sure if they hve progressed much JarrahTree 07:17, 22 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Information icon Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Nsw food authority, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. There didn't appear to be anything wrong with that redirect. Also, it's bad form to remove the redirect target when placing the deletion tag. Finally, please remember to assume good faith on the part of other editors. signed, Rosguill talk 07:22, 27 December 2019 (UTC) reply
