September 2020
Hello, I'm Toddy1. An edit that you recently made to Badimalika Temple removed the citations. I noticed that in August you made an edit to List of hill stations in Malaysia‎ that did the same thing. This is not OK. All material in Wikipedia mainspace, including everything in articles, lists and captions, must be verifiable. All quotations, and any material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, must include an inline citation that directly supports the material. Therefore articles needs citations, and removing them is destructive. -- Toddy1 (talk) 02:38, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Toddy1. An edit that you recently made to Barelvi seemed to be a test and has been removed. 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! -- Toddy1 (talk) 02:38, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Wikipedia policy is to use "straight" apostrophes and quotation marks, not “curly” ones. (See MOS:CURLY.) The edit you made to Anaa (TV series) changed straight apostrophes to curly ones and has therefore been reverted. -- Toddy1 (talk) 02:44, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

In your edit to Al Jazeera controversies and criticism you removed necessary punctuation marks. It has been reverted. -- Toddy1 (talk) 02:46, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

In your edit to Montazur Rahman Akbar you deleted the space between the citation and the word that followed it. This made it look like this:
 * Bangladesh.[1]He

There needs to be space before "He". -- Toddy1 (talk) 02:50, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

In your edit to Akola you deleted non-breaking spaces. Non-breaking spaces are space characters that prevents automatic line breaks at their position. (See Non-breaking space.) Your edit have been reverted. -- Toddy1 (talk) 02:55, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Hello. In a recent edit to the page The Bond of 1844‎, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. -- Toddy1 (talk) 08:57, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Kim Bingham‎, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. Replacing the template with [   citation needed] was unhelpful. -- Toddy1 (talk) 08:57, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Please stop deleting citations from articles like you did in Nenad Bjeković and Kim Bingham‎. Wikipedia has a policy WP:VERIFY that means that articles need citations for statements. So removing the citations is destructive. -- Toddy1 (talk) 09:02, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Please stop changing straight quotation marks to curly one as you did in Kim Bingham‎. Wikipedia has a policy MOS:CURLY that says that articles must have "straight" apostrophes and quotation marks, not “curly” ones. -- Toddy1 (talk) 09:02, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Jean-Paul Jauffret, you may be blocked from editing.    —[ Alan M 1  (talk) ]— 13:31, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi Alan, Thank you for sharing your feedback.

I will be extremely careful moving forward and have made a note of all your feedback as well as Toddy's previous feedback. I'm new to Wikipedia and didn't realize that I was deleting citations and other important content. Once again, I'm really sorry for the trouble and will do my best to ensure that such issues do not happen again.

Thank you for your guidance. Warm Regards,WordGoblin (talk) 17:09, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
 * OK. Thanks. Cheers. —[ Alan M 1  (talk) ]— 19:33, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
