Editing in Wikipedia
Thank you for your edits in Toyota Corolla related articles. However, it seems that you do not really understand the working profile in Wikipedia.org. I refer to your recent edits in the Tenth Generation Toyota Corolla (or E140) while explaining to you below.

The picture (not a bad one) you've uploaded and posted was indeed an improvement over the combination photo you posted previously and thought was better. However, we would generally prefer photos which appeals more to the masses (factors including but not limited to, will I be able to relate what I saw to the picture? Is the photo easily regconised?).

Secondly, and most importantly, are the contents you posts. Articles in Wikipedia has to be factual which example like, 1.6 litre is being sold in ASEAN. No one can deny or thinks differently from that. Your recent edit removed a number of them.

Opinions, example being "considered by critics to be more of a derivative design, rather than an evolutionary one." must be backed up by respected and neutral sources. A small group of people cannot represent the public as their views might not be neutral and may be biased. Please understand.

A good section combining example was by User:Two hundred percent on Toyota Vios article. He sucessfully streamlined the article without losing informations from the original edits, and in a neutal point of view.

Lastly, your usage of the Edit Summary is wrong. As the name implies, Edit Summary is in fact a summary of what edit you did and not a space for you to reflect your personal view of what you did. Edit summary will be reflected in the editting history of the article. When another editor comes and looks at the history page, which may have 10+ new edits, he will first look at your edit summary to deduce what that edit changed.

Editting summary like 'this is much better' will lead other editor to "huh? what is much better than what? what this guy did to my work?". Thus a good summary will allow others understand what you did easier, example "Changed the main picture of the article." or "Uncluttering of sections".

Please do understand the above and wish you happy editing in Wikipedia.org while abiding to the guidelines.
