Your edits
Thank you for contributing to wikipedia. However, here is some (hopefully) constructive feedback on your recent edits of the Portishead discography, "Dummy" and Portishead (album) pages that will assist you with future edits.


 * Please do not remove valid content from articles that has a reliable source, as you did on the "Dummy (album)" page when you removed the in-text statement that the album had been certified double platinum in the UK and sold over 600,000 copies


 * When you copy and paste references for one page to another, you need to check that the information you're pasting applies to the page you are adding it to. For example, you listed "Dummy" for one of the certifications you added in the table you created on the "Portishead (album)" page, and release year listed in some of the certifications was 1994/1995 when the album wasn't released until 1997!


 * You do not need to add spaces between text and the | symbol in certification tables. So, for example, you can just type |album=Portishead|year=1997|.  You do not need to type |album=Portishead |year=1997 |.  It makes no difference to how the data is displayed, and just adds unnecessary characters to the page.


 * When you copy and paste a reference used on one page to another, you need to update the accessdate to the date you are pasting the information. For example, if you are copying a reference that has an accessate from 2015 to an article, you need to change it to the date in 2016 you are adding the reference.


 * Please check that the formatting of any tables you edit is correct before submitting it by using the Show Preview button next to the Save Page button. This allows you to preview any edits you make, and modify them if necessary, before updating the page.  Alternatively, your Sandbox page is another option you have to test any edits before publishing them on wikipedia.


 * When creating tables with chart or certification data, it is preferable to list the countries listed in alphabetical order.
