Social justice warrior

edit

Hi there. Your recent edit to Social justice warrior was reverted by another editor; this is because your edit was not minor and it does not appear to be supported by the cited sources. I read the cited source and don't find anything which supports the claim that it involved "arguing to be heard instead of arguing to illustrate one's side." Please open a thread on the article talk page, Talk:Social justice warrior, and discuss your proposed edits. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 04:53, 20 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

  • Hi! I also wanted to warn you about this - minor edits are things like fixing a spelling or grammatical error, while adding sentences, sourcing, or making more substantial content is considered to be non-minor. Basically you should only mark something as minor if it's something that would not be controversial if it was fixed or changed. In cases where the topic is especially controversial it's better to err on the side of caution and not mark your changes as minor unless it's something very non-controversial like this. In this situation this particular topic is under sanctions, which in its most simplified explanation means that the topic has been controversial on Wikipedia and as such any changes will be more closely watched than they would otherwise be, so you have to be extra careful to make sure that it meets guidelines. For articles like these it's usually better to discuss changes and read previous discussions on the talk page prior to adding anything. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:31, 20 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
