User talk:74.108.224.146

Welcome!
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions&#32;so far. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Here are some links to pages you may find useful:
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * Simplified Manual of Style

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply  [ create a named account] . It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:
 * Create new pages and rename pages
 * Edit semi-protected pages
 * Upload images
 * Have your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed

If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (74.108.224.146) is used to identify you instead.

I hope that you, as a new Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Questions, or you can  to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (&#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;).

Happy editing! James (talk/contribs) 19:02, 11 May 2017 (UTC)

National varieties of English
In a recent edit to the page San Jose Earthquakes, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to India, use Indian English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you.

 * So changing the word from "is" to "are" is changing British English to American English? Sounds kinda minor to me. I just thought that since the team is plural (referring to the whole team), it should be are, as other team pages do. So, yeah. 74.108.224.146 (talk) 13:48, 12 May 2017 (UTC)

Date formats
I reverted your revert at Pedestrian scramble. Many articles have the date format that is to be used set within the code, i.e. you only see what it's supposed to be when the article is in edit mode. If that's defined, you will either find a  or   tag, and that is what it's to be. When it's used, it should be near the top of the article. It can, of course, be changed, but you would need to find consensus with other editors through a discussion on the article's talk page first. In this particular case, the date format tag was set in March 2012.  Schwede 66  18:11, 12 May 2017 (UTC)

Recent edit to Simple English Wikipedia
Hello, and thank you for your recent contribution. I appreciate the effort you made for our project, but unfortunately I had to undo your edit because I believe the article was better before you made that change. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions. Thank you! Wikicommandercros (talk) 05:39, 16 May 2017 (UTC)

Welcome!
Welcome to a fellow New Yorker! I've lived here in the city for 41 years. How about you? (From your edit summaries, I'm guessing it's under 20 years.)

Here's a helpful tip: if you're going to claim in your edit summaries that your edit is grammatically better than some other version, it's best if the edit summary itself is written in grammatically-correct English. As they say, I'll leave it as an exercise for you to discover what your errors were.
 * I don't see any errors in my edit summaries. Anyways, yes, I am a native New Yorker and a such, don't want any trouble. How about we put this aside and move on, for the better of Wikipedia. Also, aren't you supposed to sign your messages using ~ ? Thanks, 74.108.224.146 (talk) 01:47, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

Mistake
Sorry about flagging your edit and warning you. I read the diffs opposite without realizing it. Thank you for the edit and again - I apologize for the error on my part! --  Dane talk  22:03, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
 * It's OK. 74.108.224.146 (talk) 22:04, 11 September 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Oshwah. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to West Broadway— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page.

&nu;ew Υork City listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Νew Υork City. Since you had some involvement with the &nu;ew Υork City redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. 70.51.45.76 (talk) 03:39, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
