Your editing edit

Hi MumbaiGlenPaesViolinStudent. One of your edits to Vigiles caught my eye in my watchlist and I had to fix it as you introduced an incorrect capital - no big deal. However, I was then looking at some of your other edits and I'm afraid they're too often of really questionable quality. Some of them change the meaning of the text in a subtle way, some of them have incorrect (excessive) capitalisation of nouns that aren't proper nouns. You're also regularly describing edits as grammar fixes when they are not. I can see you're doing what you can to improve things but I'm afraid you're making as many mistakes as fixing them - if not more. Please slow down and really think about your edits before you make them, and make sure you familiarise yourself with our manual of style in regard to capitalisation, in particular. Thanks! ninety:one 13:20, 20 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thankyou 91 as you can tell I am a beginner in Wikipedia terms MumbaiGlenPaesViolinStudent (talk) 14:20, 20 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
And that's not a problem - we all have to start somewhere! Can I just take this edit as an example: "modernism" does not need to be capitalised here, and the grammar isn't quite right - so it should be "Poetry written in the modernist tradition". I also don't think this is an entirely accurate description. Modernism as a concept covers a very, very broad range of things and styles. "Modernist poetry" is going to be linked to a specific instance of modernism, in its literary context, ie literary modernism. I think it would be more accurate to describe it a little more precisely as "poetry written in the tradition of literary modernism", or "poetry written in the style of modernist literature". ninety:one 16:37, 20 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Your Recent Edit edit

  Hello, I'm ToastGuard. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Indian independence movement, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. While the edit might have been helpful, you did not cite your source nor did you use propper grammar such as saying "As well as" or "including" instead of 2 ands. -Toast (talk) 17:55, 12 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

It is no problem, just make sure to add sources or citations, i'm sure if it was such a large event you can find at least a single source. -Toast (talk) 18:26, 12 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thankyou for the feedback. I am at a loss to understand. Please would you distinguish between vandalism and non-vandalism as it relates to my word memoir and the date of the first volume in the subtitle line here. MumbaiGlenPaesViolinStudent (talk) 21:23, 13 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Indian independence movement, you may be blocked from editing. CAPTAIN RAJU(T) 21:48, 13 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
