I added 10 links to this article but they were all removed. Can someone help me out with this? Why are my edits being removed? Thanks!!


 * OK, I just stumbled over your complaint, and had nothing to do with the One strike, you're out article or the automated system (bot) that removed your changes, but I have looked at some of the change history now, though.
 * You just created this account, so you must be referring to changes done without an account. Assuming they are the ones done under IP address 151.200.121.221, then it looks like the problem was caused by the bot disliking your very last edit, which added at the top this line:
 * Successfully de-orphaned! Wikiproject Orphanage: You can help!
 * It was not a good line to add because it is not about the subject of the article; such comments, if needed, should go on the "Discussion" (talk) page, not in the article.
 * Your previous edits, adding references, look okayish, so they shouldn't have been deleted. The dumb bot, however, apparently follows (a common) policy of deleting all edits in a row by an editor when it finds an edit it thinks is vandalism.  So all your edits got stomped.  The text of the edits are still visible via the history, but there's not an easy way not to restore them simply.  They would need to be copy/pasted back into the article in the appropriate places (sigh). Sorry about your recent editing experiences on Wikipedia; the bot just was a bit zealous. -R. S.
