 * Hi, Clapwong, and thank you for your contributions. I am wondering about a number of the small revisions you're making, some of which aren't improvements to the existing content. It's recommended that you leave a brief explanation for each change you make, in the form of an edit summary. This will help others to assess the value and intent of the edits, and leaves a more transparent record of one's work here. Thank you, 2601:188:180:11F0:F11B:E449:55C1:762E (talk) 01:22, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:


 * User contributions
 * Recent changes
 * Watchlists
 * Revision differences
 * IRC channels
 * Related changes
 * New pages list
 * Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting. Thanks! Drmies (talk) 17:00, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Also! Needing sixteen edits to achieve this completely clogs up the edit history--I edit-conflicted half a dozen times with you trying to get a word in. Use "Preview". But most of all, explain why you are making these edits. I've looked at dozens of edits, and some of them appear to be productive, but others not so much. Thank you.

 * PLEASE EXPLAIN EDITS. Drmies (talk) 17:04, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In the future, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made, reduces edit conflicts, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. ''Next up: preview. You are averaging almost 20 edits per page, which makes it extraordinarily difficult for other editors to figure out what happened where--you are clogging up the history. Thank you.

There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Drmies (talk) 19:49, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.
