Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

I noticed your recent edit to Sirius does not have an edit summary.&#32;Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:


 * User contributions
 * Recent changes
 * Watchlists
 * Revision differences
 * IRC channels
 * Related changes
 * New pages list
 * Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting. Thanks! Doug Weller talk 12:17, 18 December 2019 (UTC)

I don't know if you read the reason why you were reverted but you need to. We don't use our articles in anyway as sources although we can link them if they are mentioned in an article. Doug Weller talk 12:25, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi. I came here for the same reasons.  You clearly have something to say in the Sirius article and it may improve the article.  However, your approach is not improving it.  There are extensive sections in the body concerning etymology and cultural references.  Write what you feel needs to be explained in one of these sections, possibly expanding on the mentions that are already there.  Make sure that what you say is back up by (but not copied directly from) reliable sources.  Then, consider whether your additions need to be summarised in the lead.  The lead of a comprehensive article like this is just a summary of the key points that are discussed in the body of the article.  Don't fall into the trap of just tacking on more and more factoids to the lead, this results in an unreadable mess.  You can link directly to other Wikipedia articles by placing double square brackets around the relevant term, follow the examples already in the article.  External urls (anything that starts with "http") are not normally placed in Wikipedia articles, although there may be a list of them towards the end where they are particularly relevant and useful.
