Hello, I'm NeilN. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Kolkata seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Neil N  talk to me 13:22, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi Surinamer! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor&#32;at Visa requirements for Indian citizens that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

 * Hello Fork99, I am a newbie and appreciate the feedback. I am actually an English teacher and am trying to rephrase nonstandard English sentences into easier to understand for English speakers. So, I may have considered it as minor edit as I wasn't changing the source or meaning. I will be more careful in the future and  work on editing this page more scrupulously.
