Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the page Airbnb has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. ''Using "Fixed typo" is problematic, because that is not what you did. You removed an expression of doubt, which is an editorial edit in accord with our Manual of Style. A more appropriate edit summary would have been Removing an expression of doubt, as per MOS:ALLEGED.'' Peaceray (talk) 16:47, 23 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Yeah, sorry about that one. I did that edit on mobile, and on mobile I haven't been able to find an edit summary other than one of these four buttons you can pick. I do proper summaries on computers, but mobile just ain't happy about it. I did the edit because the Wikipedia page on the Uyghur genocide is completely unambiguous as to its reality, and calling the human rights abuses "alleged" is just factually incorrect. If you know more about editing on mobile (using the Wikipedia Beta app) and how to put in a proper summary, I'd be glad to hear it. Cheers!

 * Oh! I do not use the mobile app to edit. In fact, if I edit on my smart phone, which is fairly large, I use the desktop version. But I also use some welcoming & anti-vandalism tools such as WP:Twinkle & WP:RedWarn that are easy from a phone.
 * To request more edit summary choices, I would suggest a request to the Android and/or iOS team. You can find instructions on how to do that at mediawikiwiki:Wikimedia Apps/App requests. The actual request should be made at Phabricator; you should be able to log in there via OAuth. Peaceray (talk) 20:28, 23 October 2022 (UTC)
