 * What vandalism occurred? The organization’s name was updated several years ago to LGBTQ Aggies. The page is well out of date. I am a former president of the organization and created most the original content for this page more than 10 years ago. Camdenbreeding (talk) 05:46, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Because of your conflict of interest, as a past president, you should refrain from editing the article. You may still request edits via the article's talk page. Further, if the name has been changed, please provide a published reliable source to verify the change. —C.Fred (talk) 10:29, 30 March 2023 (UTC)


 * In the back-end analysis, your edits were both good-faith and accurate. They just looked bad, in large part due to your lack of edit summaries or added references. Compare your edits to the edit I just made. First, I added this text as an edit summary: name change supported by official sources - escalating and moving article. This shows other editors that I've done some due diligence on the change and verified it. Second, one of my changes was to add a reference to LGBTQA's STUACT Online listing: it may only be a directory, but it's written verification of the organization's current name. Based on that—and since the name change was already mentioned in the article—I also moved the article to LGBTQ Aggies.Because I have actively edited the LGBTQA article, I am now an involved administrator: I really should only act in my capacities as a regular editor here rather than as an administrator. However, if I were to apply administrative opinion here, I would say that your edits were not vandalism, and I'd urge the community to overlook the warnings above if you were to again innocently run afoul of a Wikipedia policy or guideline. If you were to get a future warning, remember it's a templated, standardized message, and you should probably reply to it, like you did above, asking what's wrong with the edits, so that you can identify the problem and avoid it in the future. To that end, feel free to leave me a message at User talk:C.Fred, asking for guidance or clarification, at any time in the future.Last but by no means least. You have self-identified as a former president of LGBTQ Aggies. While it is certainly possible that you are just [sic] an ally of the community, I will make the assumption that you are within the LGBTQ2SIA+ community umbrella. Welcome (back) to Wikipedia. As an encyclopedia, we are better when we bring in a diversity of voices: non-American, non-white, non-male, non-heterosexual, non-cisgender.... Please feel free to find areas of the project you can and want to contribute to. —C.Fred (talk) 11:02, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
