User talk:Mecs78

Welcome!
Hello, Mecs78, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Squaw, have removed content without an explanation. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the sandbox rather than in articles.

If you still have questions, there is a new contributors' help page, or you can and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia: I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you want to get in touch with me. Again, welcome! &thinsp;&mdash; Ammarpad (talk) 10:30, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Optakeover. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Squaw— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Point of contention
It is misleading that this article begins by stating as if fact that this word is derogatory and a racial slur when there are major points of contention as to whether this is factual. Further down in the article it mentions the controversy. The synopsis should not state it without mentioning this controversy. Mecs78 (talk) 10:46, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
