- It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
- If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
- Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
- When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
- If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
- Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.
Happy editing! Cheers, Zefr ( talk) 23:25, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Zefr, I wish to humbly apologize for deviating from the accepted writing style. Editing an article on Wikipedia was part of an assignment and in my rush to meet the deadline I somehow missed the manual of style. Regrettably, I restructured the definition because I was unable to find a credible source to which I could attach the existing one. I restructured some sentences because they were direct quotes with no citation attached and inserted missing citations to other areas of the text. Please accept my sincerest apology.
