Edit Summaries
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that one or more recent edit(s) you made did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder by setting, and then click the "Save" button. Thanks!

In more detail, while I see you have been using edit summaries, they invariably say "Fix", which is simply not an accurate reflection of your edits. For example, in this edit, you added an example (which I've since reverted, reason in edit summary). This isn't "fix"ing anything, and useless/misleading edit summaries are just as bad, if not worse, than no edit summaries. Thanks. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 18:13, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
