Hello, I'm Blaze Wolf. Your recent edit to Forced abortion appears to have added incorrect information, so I removed it for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:50, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

Your signature and linter errors
Just a reminder that your signature contains obsolete font tags. They create Linter errors, and it is advised that you change your signature to  ASAP.

The purpose of this message is because Linter errors affect the way the page looks, and with a lot of errors, the page may render badly. To reduce Linter errors, please change your signature.

If the software doesn't accept my replacement signature, let me know, and if that's the case, unfortunately you may have to change it to something else. Sheep (talk) 15:38, 7 October 2022 (UTC)

AFDs
Hello, Grimmchild,

You are not a very experienced editor yet and I'd advise you to spend your time improving your editing skills and learning about the variety of Wikipedia guidelines and policies before diving into offering an opinion on articles that have been nominated for deletion. Comments there have to be based in policy and you should become very familiar with Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions because most of the comments you've made can be found on this page of arguments to avoid making. I don't mean to discourage you but putting your time and effort participating at AFD takes a lot of knowledge about what makes a subject (not article but subject) notable, what "significant coverage" is, what makes for a good reliable source, etc. They are also discussions, not just a collection of opinion on what editors think of an article and how it can be improved.

I hope you enjoy your time editing Wikipedia, explore lots of areas and if you ever have questions or just want a second opinion, please go to the Teahouse. I went to the Teahouse frequently when I was starting to edit and got frustrated and the experienced editors who answer questions helped me want to continue and become a better editor. Good luck.

 * Hello, Grimmchild,
 * Just a reminder, please review Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions so as not to make these commonly made mistakes in AFD discussions. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 04:12, 21 November 2022 (UTC)

Suggestion
Hello, Grimmchild! I am very glad to see that you added Template:User No Confederate flag to your userboxes. Having that in mind, I must ask you to consider endorsing a closely related essay, WP:NOCONFED, in which creation I participated. Of course, this is just a suggestion, nothing more. Cheers! —  Sundostund  mppria  (talk / contribs) 12:54, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
