The thread at WP:ANI
Regarding the comment about your account at WP:ANI: it looks like a troublemaker tried to frame you for their troublemaking. It's all sorted now, and it seems clear to everyone you were not involved, but I imagine getting a ping to that thread was a rude welcome! Sorry it happened to you. Let me know if you have any questions. --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:29, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

No worries. There are always people who are unhappy and want others to feel the same. I'm glad it was figured out. I appreciate the links and will do my best to follow the guidelines - though I see some of my edits may need to be revised for a more neutral tone to follow the policies. Thanks again for reaching out.Krabuck (talk) 20:02, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia standards
Starting editing in Wikipedia can be daunting because of the plethora of rules and conventions. Unfortunately you have stumbled across a couple of them. All varieties of English are acceptable here, but each article is written in only one English dialect. This is often flagged up on the talk page but if it isn't, it is always best not to change spellings that can differ from one dialect to another. Please see WP:ENGVAR for more on this.

The other issue is about images. Wherever possible do not specify a size for an image. Because Wikipedia is viewed on a great range of devices, letting the display use the default size is much the best approach. If not, a mobile phone user may encounter an image that fills the screen with no text visible. Images should also be relevant and illustrate the text and add encyclopaedic value.

 * Also, there's the unsourced content you've added--can you confirm that it wasn't copied? And if conflict of interest, WP:COI, is relevant, that needs to be addressed. Thank you, 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 20:58, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
