Oxford commas
Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. I see you are inserting Oxford commas on many different pages. Per WP:Oxford comma] Wikipedia has no preference on style and per WP:RETAIN you shouldn’t just change these everywhere. Could you slow down please on this?

Thanks. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 13:20, 17 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks mate. Sure, I'll consider this suggestion. Ah.Yemen (talk) 13:22, 17 September 2022 (UTC)

Oxford commas again
If you do find a legitimate candidate for insertion of a so-called Oxford comma (see above), please don't also insert a preceding extra space. You seem to have done this in several instances. Thanks. Haploidavey (talk) 14:19, 17 September 2022 (UTC)

The issue is that I don't have a homepage for my account besides the userpage where I can see articles suggested for copy editing, references, and updating.

Can you advise me on how can I get the Homepage of my account? Ah.Yemen (talk) 16:36, 17 September 2022 (UTC)


 * OK. I just deleted my earlier post, as you already have a "homepage" - it's your user page, and you don't seem to be having any dificulty in using it. I'm hard pressed to see what else you could mean by "homepage", in the circumstances. Haploidavey (talk) 17:32, 17 September 2022 (UTC)

"Copyedits"
Hi there!

I have recently seen your edits on an article that was last revised by me, and have since browsed through and noticed that the overwhelming majority of your contributions are tagged as copyedits. Copyediting, as defined in its Wikipedia article, "is the process of revising written material (copy) to improve readability and fitness, as well as ensuring that text is free of grammatical and factual errors." As I am browsing through some of your copyedit revisions, they seem to not exactly fulfill that criteria, as in some cases you are making changes that are not grammatically correct (in the preceding revision, you removed "to" and added two spaces between the words). Errors are made by everyone and that is understandable but it seems that the majority of your contributions involve such editing (removal of words, addition of disruptive blank spaces, etc.), and likewise a similar contribution was made by you at Roman Empire, which another user has reverted, and also [here. I believe this is not just a series of mistakes and humbly request that you change your approach. ➤ [[User:Zeex.rice|Zᴇᴇx.ʀɪᴄᴇ]] ✪ (ᴛᴀʟᴋ) 09:40, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * As I suspected, it seems this is more than just erroneous as your edit summary for this contribution does not reflect the actual changes (i.e. "correct pronoun usage" but you only added a blank space). ➤ Zᴇᴇx.ʀɪᴄᴇ ✪ (ᴛᴀʟᴋ) 09:58, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

Hello there, I appreciate your suggestions but I don't know why you reverted all of my edits. You can revert one or two, not several edits.

Wikipedia suggested editing them and writing copyedit if it was even a review of commas, punctuation, etc.

Wikipedia said I don't need to edit the whole article, but even one revision like the comma before AND is enough. I did that. Ah.Yemen (talk) 14:03, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
