July 2011

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Disemvoweling has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

August 2011

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not replace pages with blank content, as you did with this edit to Sex and Character, as this is confusing to readers. The page's content has been restored for now. If there is a problem with the page, it should be edited or reverted to a previous version if possible; if you think the page should be removed entirely, see further information. Thank you.

RevDelete request

Hello, SilkTork.

I do not have anything especially specific to ask of you, other than that you aid me by permanently rev-deleting my conspicuous edit to the first sentence of the Scientology page, as I am afraid the organization might decide to make me out for a hooligan (on account of my obvious belligerence) and attempt to sabotage my peace and/or sanity.

Thanks for your help. Ratiuglink (talk) 23:30, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

I sympathise with your position; however, the RevDelete rules do not permit me to conceal your edit. The edit itself is not offensive, and RevDelete is not for when someone later changes their mind. Wikipedia policy is that we keep a record of our actions in the interest of openness and verification. My experience of the Wikipedia community is that they like it when someone makes a mistake and learns from that mistake. It can be better to make a mistake and then genuinely apologise for it, and make amends, than never to make a mistake at all! Your edit is not something that should cause you any concern. Your behaviour in not edit warring over the revert is one that people will note as positive. You have done OK. No worries! SilkTork ^{✔Tea time} 10:58, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
