Happy editing!

Not a mistake!
Maybe a bit of not quite knowing the ropes. If you hadn't deleted that content, I wouldn't have fixed it. We make a good team! Cheers Adakiko (talk) 09:27, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Adakiko. I noticed that in this edit to Republic of Rotuma, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

When I format a cite web, I do it along the lines of ...cite web| url= https://... |title= Title |date= August 13, 2022}} This presumably makes it easier for others to read. The source is "compiled" into the article that you see. This short sentence. and This                short                 sentence. Look the same, but there are quite a few spaces between the words on the second. The compiler removes all but one. I would recommend trying to make it editable rather than compact. Compact might be better on a mobile, but clean formatting works better for me at least on a desktop. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 07:58, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi. Thanks for the notice. I briefly described in the edit summary that I used another user's revision to delete extra spaces because the recent edits committed by another IP user seem to be harassing Wikipedia's Guidelines (in my personal opinion). I wonder Y in the world would my edit to that article be considered as "unconstructive" whereas, in reality, I'm attempting to delete some redundant spaces for the sake of decreasing the article's size?197.3.156.48 (talk) 09:54, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
 * With this edit, you removed content and a citation. Removing spaces does nothing for the published page. The compiler removes them and adds/removes many other things. Adakiko (talk) 10:33, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi. Have you reviewed what I have deleted? My edit has not been tagged as "References removed". Plus, I actually moved citation and removed ref name tags without omitting the whole citation. Kindly reconsider. Thanks.197.3.156.48 (talk) 10:39, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
 * My apology, I misunderstood your edit summary. I restored your edit. Again, I apologize! Cheers Adakiko (talk) 10:44, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello. Don't worry, I accept your apology. I made a similar edit to this page in the previous month with different IP addresses but it seems that verified users persistently disagree with my edit, claiming it "unconstrucive", despite thanking that one user who accepted my edited before it got undone by someone else who, in fact, does not want anyone to leave a message on his talk page. Besides omitting spaces and paragraphs, I have added sources according to recent events which none has given a darn to at least accept the new references I inserted. Please review it and tell me whether my edits are an improvement to that article or how my edits should have been improved.197.3.156.48 (talk) 11:13, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I would recommend not removing those spaces. Spaces in infoboxes can help with readability for editing. Some tools add spaces so the equal signs "=" are all in a single column. Spaces in templates such as help with editing. The result code displayed as the page isn't any more compact w/o the spaces. "
