Tips 
 * Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
 * It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
 * If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
 * Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
 * When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
 * If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
 * Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, JarrahTree 08:23, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi The editing spirit! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor 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.

 * Hi Alex, thank you for your notice, this is the first time for me to edit Wikipedia. I just want to fix the details of some articles, such as punctuation, typos, wordy sentences, capital letters, etc. I don't know if that was more than minor editing. I do apologize about it, what should I do later? Please give me any suggestions. The editing spirit (talk) 08:02, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm I2n2z. An edit that you recently made to Krupuk seemed to be a test and has been reverted. If you want to practice editing, please use your sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! i2n 2z  13:40, 26 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Hello, good evening. I'm not learning to edit, but trying to work with a new device. I've done quite a bit of editing on Wikipedia, but this is a little different. I apologize if the edits are problematic, I will fix them soon. Thank you. The editing spirit (talk) 16:38, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

sustaining the usage of...
The work 'duke' in relation to Indonesian - Javanese culture is open to question, even the word of 'king' at times, just a FYI rather than an assertion of any particular case: it is one thing to be able to fix the grammar and spelling, but great care must be taken to not replicate mis-usage of terms that really don't fit. A bit like the over-usage of javanese script in lead sentences and info boxes - there is never a need to have both... Very general with no examples, I thought it might be worth the mention JarrahTree 00:33, 3 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Classic example of both issues: - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pakualaman

There is no functional reason for the application of javanese text in the lead and info box.

There is very little evidence of the predominance of the usage of 'duchy' in the historically available material about Pakualaman - where Javanese terminology has been mistranslated.

Your edits where you add the name again inside a link -Yogyakarta Sultanate, - is unnecessary and strange, the link is there, you can add the comma if you so wish, outside the box... As this is english wikipedia, there may well be a lot of differences from the Indonesian wikipedia, but that is the way things have happened... JarrahTree 00:46, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
