User talk:Thisisaaron

This is being posted on your talk page where you can receive messages from other Wikipedians and discuss issues and respond to questions. At the end of each message you will see a signature left by the editor posting. This is done by signing with four tildes ( ~ ) or by clicking in the editing interface toolbox, located just above the editing window (when editing). You won't need to sign your contributions to articles themselves; you only need to when using talk pages. If you have any questions or face any initial hurdles, feel free to contact me on my talk page and I will do what I can to assist or give you guidance.

Flag icons
Please note you are not correcting anything by adding flag icons. On US settlement articles, there use is allowed (for state and nation only), but not required. If someone objects to the addition of flag icons, you've got two choices. Either just let it go (which would be my choice FYI) or start a discussion and argue for their inclusion. That argument cannot include use in other articles. WP:FLAGICON details this. Local consensus is required if they are objected to. Objection would be shown by reverting your edit. Please choose a different wording for your edit summary. Might I suggest "adding FLAGICON"? John from Idegon (talk) 00:29, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much John. You're right that was not the correct phrasing. I just noticed this formatting on my hometown article and a few larger cities so I figured I would apply it to others in my area. I will read up further on the policies, guidelines, and tutorials you provided in the previous link before continuing any further. Again, thank you for helping and guiding this novice.
