Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=695135251 your edit] to Reichstag fire may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "<>"s. If you have, don't worry: just [ edit the page] again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?action=edit&preload=User:A930913/BBpreload&editintro=User:A930913/BBeditintro&minor=&title=User_talk:A930913&preloadtitle=BracketBot%20–%20&section=new my operator's talk page].

 Hello, I'm Donner60. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Reichstag fire with this edit, without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 01:35, 14 December 2015 (UTC)


 * I am deleting the above message because your message to me shows you were trying to make a good faith edit. Please do use edit summaries, especially when removing material, in order for questions not to be raised. If editors see a portion of text that has citations removed without explanation, they will usually revert it and move on to another edit. If an edit may require a longer explanation, put it on the article's talk page and after a brief comment, write something like see talk page for more. See Help:Using talk pages and Talk page guidelines. Usually a bracket error simply means that the opening and/or closing brackets are missing or are the wrong characters or combination of errors. The main page of the Manual of Style has much information, and links, about formatting and mark-up, including brackets, as well as links to more specific pages.


 * I will more closely examine your intended edit later to see if I can say something more specific about it. Sometimes, removal of content is done to add a competing viewpoint as the main or only viewpoint. If both have some validity and reliable, verifiable, neutral references, both should be included and the reader can decide which one to accept. Fringe theories should be avoided or given very brief and neutral mention, identifying them as fringe or at least minority views. The keys are neutral language and citations to reliable, verifiable, neutral sources if additions are competing theories, or appear questionable or likely to be challenged. Pages explaining these key concepts are linked below.


 * Meanwhile, here are some links to pages with useful information that can help you in editing and writing for Wikipedia:

 * If you indent a line (without using some markup like a colon), you will get a strange looking box and some of your text may even run off the screen.


 * There are quite a few links above and some of them provide further links. However, some of the pages are short, some you may not need to look at, at least right of way and I think you can get the gist of the others reasonably quickly. It is good to know that there is some online help at Wikipedia if you know where it is.


 * Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages (but not article edits) by typing four tildes (~) ; this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions or ask your question on this page and then place Help me before the question. You may also ask me a question on my user talk page and I will answer it, if I can, or try to refer you to a page or person that might help, the next time I am online at Wikipedia. Please also create a new section heading for a new topic with opening and closing double equal signs.


 * I should have a further comment later today or tomorrow, even if it is just to say I think these general information links and comments are the best reply I can make. Donner60 (talk) 21:55, 14 December 2015 (UTC)


 * I just noticed you have made a more recent edit. I will look at that (format and substances) to see if that will affect or add to any further comment I may have. Donner60 (talk) 21:58, 14 December 2015 (UTC)


 * The bottom line as I see it is that you have added content without removing anything. In fact, it seems that you intended to do that all along. I now see that I may have misread the sequence of your edits. On the other hand, your recent addition in fact makes the final product look complete. Perhaps my edit actually removed good text. I say perhaps because I am having trouble following the trail, maybe I am just tired at this point. In any event, I hope you keep making constructive edits to Wikipedia and will not be discouraged by my intrusion. Donner60 (talk) 06:10, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
