  Hi Lalxlal! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Hurrem Sultan that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

Hurrem’s appearance

edit

Hey. If you’re trying to add a source, as you did by adding Bu Mülkün Kadın Sultanları, you should do so by providing ISBN and the page number. We cannot just throw a book’s name into the article as a source without showing from which page or edition the information has come from. Additionally, pay attention to what you write under each section in terms of consistency. Suleiman referring to Hurrem as "My orange and pomegranate and citrus" has nothing to do with Hurrem’s physical appearance. It’s a love poem, a prominent example of which has been covered in the section on their relationship. Also, we usually don’t do sections such as "Appearance" for individuals because that sounds very trivial. Any such info should be incorporated to the "Origin" section and it should be brief.
