Hi Epiboy! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

Era style changes
I generally prefer BCE but we must all follow WP:ERA, and your changes did not. Doug Weller talk 10:56, 25 June 2022 (UTC)

Ah, thanks for this. This is a bummer. I’d really like to see Wikipedia become a more neutral, inclusive space. Epiboy (talk) 17:46, 25 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Yeah, but not everyone sees BCE as neutral. You might benefit from reading WP:NPOV. Doug Weller  talk 18:57, 25 June 2022 (UTC)

Hello Epiboy, and thank you for your edits. Please do not remove useful links from an article, as you did in the article Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary, and be mindful of Wikipedia's policy on adding honorifics. Also, please be aware of Wikipedia's style guide on how to describe currency to understand why I reverted that part of your edit. Happy continued editing,  Stony Brook  babble 19:39, 10 July 2022 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the page Book of Ruth has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. After the warnings above you try to mislead editors about your edit? Doug Weller  talk 06:53, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for September 3
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Herschel Walker, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page SEC. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

You've been asked repeatedly to stop writing false or misleading edit summaries. You just did that again in your edit on United States anti-abortion movement. Please stop doing that. If you continue that practice, you may face sanctions. NightHeron (talk) 09:16, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
