September 2019

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Australian Survivor (season 4), did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Jalen D. Folf (talk) 05:19, 5 September 2019 (UTC)

@JalenFolf: I believe this is a poorly chosen warning and should be struck -- good faith users trying to be be constructive should be clearly pointed in the right direction. Teach someone to fish and all that... Cheers, ^~Hydronium^~Hydroxide^~(Talk)~ 09:06, 5 September 2019 (UTC)

Australian Survivor episode summaries

Hi Derekyoung418, and thanks for the addition of article summaries to Australian Survivor (season 4). Unfortunately these are way way too long. Episode 1 was ~1714 words, while episode summaries should be no more than ~200 words in length. Please see WP:TVPLOT for more guidance. (Also, you've accidentally been moving into edit warring). Cheers, ^~Hydronium^~Hydroxide^~(Talk)~ 08:59, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
