Hello, I've noticed you have been changing the spellings in articles to US spelling. Please note that on Wikipedia, articles use the spelling variety of the topic it is on. Please see WP:ENGVAR for more information. -- Earl Andrew - talk 13:54, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of
your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to
Irish cuisine, did not appear to be constructive and have been
reverted. As has been
raised elsewhere recently, your changes to:
- spellings (for example changing the word "
pollan
" to "pollen
") was inappropriate. As the sentence is CLEARLY referring to the type of fish (and NOT the substance produced by flowers). - regional variations (for example changing the word "
colonisation
" to "colonization
") was inappropriate. As, per the tag at the top of the article, American spelling should NOT be used. - quoted text (for example adding a random comma to "
Searching for Chefs, Waiters
", where no such comma exists in the title of the original work) was also inappropriate. Per MOS:TYPOFIX.,and Restaurateurs in Edwardian Dublin
Stop making these random and inappropriate spelling/spacing/variation/punctuation changes. It is completely pointless. And actively harmful to the project. And just a waste of everyone's time. Yours included. And will just result in (yet another) block. Guliolopez ( talk) 13:45, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- I have also reverted similar changes to other articles. Including your change to "Overpopulation", where you decided to "improve" the title of an article in the National Geographic - by adding a random word that does not appear in the source. And your change to "Section 124A of the Indian Penal Code", where you decided to "improve" (among other quoted passages) the words used in the original quoted source. And also your change to "Human overpopulation", where (yet again), you randomly decided that you could "change" the original wording given on page 39 of Ehrlich and Ehrlich (1990). Put plainly: STOP DOING THIS. Stop applying your own (or even Wikipedia's) style, grammar, spelling or other preferences to the titles of (and quotations from) original works. Just stop. MOS:TYPOFIX.
