Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Pig Latin. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. —BarrelProof (talk) 03:46, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

Logical punctuation
I reverted your edit to Laser. Wikipedia typically uses logical punctuation with quotes, rather than the typesetter's convention that is more common in the United States.--Srleffler (talk) 23:58, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

If you're interested, there's a whole essay on this at Logical quotation on Wikipedia.--Srleffler (talk) 00:04, 7 April 2020 (UTC)

Draft:Mumbo Jumbo (YouTuber) concern
Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Mumbo Jumbo (YouTuber), a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:35, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

Maybe not
You say "I mainly decide whether an article should be written in American or British English depending on the subject of the article, then convert the article into the appropriate dialect."

That's a terrible idea for an inexperienced user. Really terrible. Not just because it leads to stupid mistakes (e.g. - the diphthong is in Hahnemann's original writings) but also because changing from en-gb to en--us or vice-versa is very often controversial.

I suggest you find something less contentious to do. Guy (help!) 22:33, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

ENGVAR
Hi Electos, please don't make edits like this and this. That article has existed since 2001, and as you can see, it isn't in British English, and there's no reason it should be. WP:ENGVAR states: "When an English variety's consistent usage has been established in an article, maintain it in the absence of consensus to the contrary. With few exceptions (e.g., when a topic has strong national ties or the change reduces ambiguity), there is no valid reason for changing from one acceptable option to another. ... An article should not be edited or renamed simply to switch from one variety of English to another."

It's also worth noting that British English doesn't necessarily use organise rather than organize. See Oxford spelling and Use British English Oxford spelling. Something to bear in mind. Many thanks, SarahSV (talk) 19:59, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
