English variation



Hello! I've noticed on the recent changes feed that you have been copyediting Cultural appropriation ↗, and I saw that you modified certain words to correspond with the American spelling. Changing the English variation of an article without a solid reason is strongly discouraged, see Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Retaining the existing variety ↗. Note that the article currently has a template at the top indicating that the article uses British English: "{{tlp|Use British English|<nowiki>date=February 2023</nowiki>}}". Could you fix those changes and keep this in mind in the future? Thanks! ObserveOwl (chit-chat • my doings ↗) 06:09, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

:This also applies to the date format, which you changed in Pan-Indianism ↗. Even though the article has "{{tlp|Use dmy dates|<nowiki>date=March 2023</nowiki>}}", you changed at least one date to the MDY format. ObserveOwl (chit-chat • my doings ↗) 06:12, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
::My apologies. I was unaware of the template indicating the type of English. I will revert the changes. Bcbc24 (talk) 12:36, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
:::Oh, no problem. Happy editing! :) ObserveOwl (chit-chat • my doings ↗) 18:00, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

Minor edits



25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hi Bcbc24! 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 <em>meaning</em> of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Thank you. <!-- Template:uw-minor --> — <span style="font-family:verdana;font-variant:small-caps;font-weight:bold"><span style="color:black">Manticore</span></span> 00:51, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

:Thank you. I will be more careful. Is it an edit that I need to revisit? Bcbc24 (talk) 04:07, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
