Heading text
thank you Drycroft4 for accurate help and support, you are right. The underlying reasons and references, often need interpreting, in the Wiki venue.

June 2019
Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. – bradv 🍁  12:26, 20 June 2019 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Paint, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Begoon 09:38, 3 December 2019 (UTC)

Star trek being TV-MA
Hi Drycroft4. I added the TV rating back to the Star Trek Discovery in the introductory text block, but put it at the end after a sentence about Discovery's place in the overall Trek franchise. As you say, the rating is not trivial from a parent's perspective, and it is also academically interesting since it shows a marked change of tone and content from other Trek instalments. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5thEarlofSalisbury (talk • contribs) 08:02, 2 March 2020 (UTC)

World War II
Hi, Drycroft. I noticed you edited World War II for "readability", but actually left behind prose such as "The major threw their entire economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities behind the war effort" (?) and "war crimes tribunals were conducted in Nuremberg Germany against many German and Japanese leaders" (no, the tribunal against Japanese leaders was not in Nuremberg). You also removed useful links such as World War II by country (why?). I appreciate your wish to improve the text, but please be more careful, especially when editing a Good article, which is likely to be pretty well written to start with. There are many poorly written articles, for instance by some non-native speakers, and those might actually benefit more from your copyediting. Bishonen &#124; tålk 08:55, 1 September 2021 (UTC).

July 2022
Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Star Trek: Discovery, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. ''Adding ref tags with your own WP:OR in them does not count as a reliable source. If you want to add a "warning" such as the one you added to Discovery, you will need to find reliable sources that support it. And if you want to put it in the first paragraph of the article you will need to prove that those sources carry enough WP:DUEWEIGHT. Please take any further concerns to the article's talk page.'' adamstom97 (talk) 06:55, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Digital currency. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. — Manti  core  10:42, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
