Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. I noticed that your recent edit to European Parliament did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Misplaced Pages account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary, and then click the "Save" button. Thanks! -- Toddy1 (talk) 10:32, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi Contributor00001! I noticed that you recently added a new paragraph at European Parliament but marked your edit as a minor edit. This was misleading of you. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Misplaced Pages—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. -- Toddy1 (talk) 10:32, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

Ok, I'll add it. Thank you Contributor00001 (talk) 10:34, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Toddy1. I noticed that you recently removed content from Human Rights Watch without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Misplaced Pages with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.-- Toddy1 (talk) 10:35, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

In the article on Xavier Niel you added a quotation from the source you cited. If you are going to quote sources, you need make it clear that you are doing so by putting the quotation in inverted commas. If you do not do that, you expose Misplaced Pages to accusations of copyright violations. I have fixed it.-- Toddy1 (talk) 10:43, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for your suggestion Toddy1!! Contributor00001 (talk) 11:10, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Misplaced Pages, as you did with this edit to Human Rights Watch, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you would like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

• You deleted the entire infobox, {{short description}}, {{redirect|HRW}}, and the first image. It appears to have been an accident. (I've done that!). Cheers Adakiko (talk) 13:32, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
