  Hi DanielaLarsen25! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Lehi, Utah that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – 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.

  Hello. You have repeatedly marked your edits as minor despite my repeated requests for you to stop. A minor edit is one with only superficial differences[1]. Please stop marking edits as minor if they are not. Minor changes are:[2]

  • Spelling, grammatical, and punctuation corrections
  • Simple formatting (e.g., capitalization, or properly adding italics to non-English words, like folie de grandeur, or titles of certain works, like The Adventures of Tom Sawyer)
  • Formatting that does not change the meaning of the page (e.g., moving a picture, splitting one paragraph into two—where this is not contentious)
  • Obvious factual errors (e.g., changing "The Pyramids were built in 2500 AD" to "The Pyramids were built in 2500 BC")
  • Fixing layout errors
  • Adding or correcting wikilinks, or fixing broken external links and references already present in the article
  • Removing obvious vandalism

Minor edits are not:[3]

  • Adding or removing content in an article
  • Adding or removing visible tags or other templates in an article
  • Adding or removing references / citations, external links, or categories in an article
  • Adding comments to a talk page or other discussion
