Question from Muhammed Anas N M (10:47, 17 July 2024)
There are many wrong information abailable the wikipedia platform which are widely monitored by themselves. Whenever someone correct those edits they are keeping an eye to unbring the changes in to the page. What is to be done in those circumstances? --Muhammed Anas N M (talk) 10:47, 17 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, welcome to Wikipedia. If I am correct, yes we do undo unconstructive edits on Wikipedia. However, if a constructive edit is reverted (often in good faith), please check over your edit and make sure it is sourced, has a edit summary and follows Wikipedia guidelines regarding style (WP:MOS) and discuss it on the talkpage.

July thanks
Thank you for improving article quality in July! - Today's story is about a photographer who took iconic pictures, especially View from Williamsburg, Brooklyn, on Manhattan, 9/11, yesterday's was a great mezzo, and on Thursday we watched a sublime ballerina. If that's not enough my talk offers chamber music from two amazing concerts. - Could you update the WP:QAI page with your current name, please? -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:14, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
