Lede sections can repeat content elsewhere in the article

edit

The lede section (before the first heading) is intended as short summary of important points. It is normal for in a lede to repeat information and citations found elsewhere in the article and is not a reason to delete such material. See MOS:LEAD for more details. Wikipedia has many policies and practices. As a new user, my advice to you is to focus on making positive additions to article content rather than deletions, unless there is a clear policy justication for deletion (vandalism, hate speech, uncited). Similarly a "minor edit" is not what you think it is judging by the way you are marking everything you do as minor. Minor means spelling corrections, formatting, and things that don't change the information content of the article. See WP:MINOR for more details. My advice is, if in any doubt about whether an edit is minor, don't mark it as minor. If I can be of any help, please don't hesitate to ask. Kerry (talk) 02:29, 21 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you very much for this clarification. I will review the edit I made and make the necessary changes. Fluffy cats battalion (talk) 02:39, 21 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
