Why reverted edits?

edit

I noticed that a lot of lists end up under the "L" headings, i.e. "L" List of xxx

instead of the correct heading "X" xxx

so I attempted to fix as many I could, by adding the |xxx to the category.

i.e. instead of "[[Category:list of artists]]" which showed "Czech" artists under "L", I added "[[Category:list of artists|Czech]]" which appropriately put the list under the "C" category.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Lists_of_painters

this is the correct way: C

  • List of Canadian painters
  • List of Chinese painters
  • List of Cuban painters

this is the incorrect (in my opinion) way L

  • List of African-American visual artists
  • List of American artists 1900 and after
  • List of American artists before 1900
  • List of Czech painters

as these should not be under "L" but under "A" for American, "C" for "Czech" etc.

However, you seem to have reverted all these?

wonder what did I do wrong?

To be honest i am not even sure myself on earth i rolled these back. They are obviously good edits, and i cannot remember reverting them to be honest - yet my contribution history clearly shows i did this. I reverted my changes to these article's, so they should all be back to the state before i reverted them. I really wish i could give you some form of explanation as to the why, but frankly i am rather baffled about this myself. I can only apologize for the extra work i caused here, as there is obviously nothing wrong whatsoever with your edits. So again, my apologies for these completely incorrect reverts.

Thanks for uploading File:Rhea Carmi Untitled box-spring rag and paint 82x62 2009.jpg, which you've sourced to http://rheacarmi.com/our-fragile-earth/20.Box-spring-rag-and-paint.-82x62-2009.jpg.html - Copyright © 1974-2010 Rhea Carmi, All Rights Reserved.. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 00:04, 6 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
