READ BEFORE COMMENTING:

"You didn't explain your changes.": Please make sure. If I did explain and you didn't read it, I'll probably just restore my edits.

"You must discuss your changes": Maybe, but one editor can't make a discussion. You must be ready to participate. Consider my edit summaries as a starting point.

"Popular culture" edits: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a mass media concordance. I search for and remove pop culture examples of the following forms:

  • The example merely states that something was "mentioned"/"referenced"/"said"/"appeared" and the like, without describing its significance in the work. These lazy examples do not improve understanding of a subject and therefore do not advance Wikipedia's goals. They are nothing more than an online game of punch buggy at readers' expense.
  • It provides insufficient detail to verify, e.g. a subject was mentioned in "an episode" of a TV show, without saying which episode.
  • It is not from popular culture. It involves factual events, not creative works.
  • The article subject is not explicitly involved in the work, and the example relies on the editor's speculation (however reasonable).
  • It is merely a coincidence of names, without further relevance to the article subject.

This is a very low bar for popular culture examples. Please consider whether defending such examples is the best use of your time.

February 2019 edit

  Hello, I'm Abelmoschus Esculentus. I noticed that in this edit to Let That Be Your Last Battlefield, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Abelmoschus Esculentus (talkcontribs) 04:03, 24 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
