  Hello, I'm Oshwah. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to LGBT rights in Tuvalu— because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 12:28, 28 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi, would you care to explain precisely why you chose to remove all of my edits? I felt that linking to LGBT rights on the country page was constructive, and can't see how it isn't. 21:59, 19 Oct 2016

Please see my edit summary ([here), and read WP:OFFTOPIC. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 21:03, 19 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
It says 'The links in the "See also" section should be relevant, should reflect the links that would be present in a comprehensive article on the topic' - I think they were relevant. If not in the 'see also' section then where should the link to LGBT rights be? Could you advise? 22:08, 19 Oct 2016
I would suggest taking your query to to article's talk page. I only do a bit of general maintenance on Dominican Republic articles, and I note that there is no article on Human rights in the Dominican Republic. It's an issue that should be addressed, and there may be other editors interested in developing such an article. Category:Human rights in the Dominican Republic only has three articles. I'm wondering whether a subsection for human rights shouldn't be inserted into the main article, but that's best left for the talk page where other editors might be enticed to discuss the prospect. Cheers! --Iryna Harpy (talk) 21:34, 19 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
Understood! Thanks very much for your help :) 22:37, 19 October 2016
Great. Do start a thread on that talk page. I'm more than happy to help out with technical aspects of inserting a expand section template, etc. Unfortunately, I have my fingers in so many controversial articles in areas I'm well versed in that my brain would explode if I tried to take on any more. Just a quick google shows that there are a lot of reliable sources easily available on the subject. Happy editing, and best of luck! --Iryna Harpy (talk) 21:49, 19 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
