Repeatedly making trivial and unnecessary edits

Please stop removing commas that are needed for correct grammar and style. See MOS:COMMA for more information. If copyediting tasks are challenging, you may wish to focus on other kinds of contributions. Also, when it comes to edits, quality is more important than quantity. Regards.

Apologies, I was only removing those that seemed unnecessary. Duly noted.

Regards,

September 2025

Hello. In a recent edit to the page Sivanandi Rajadurai, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the first author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. CodeTalker (talk) 17:56, 13 September 2025 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Feetham Filipo Banyikwa, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources to see how to add references to an article. Thank you. CodeTalker (talk) 18:01, 13 September 2025 (UTC)

I am still working on that article. I am going to add citation. Purose (talk) 18:08, 13 September 2025 (UTC)

You undid all my work on Feetham Filippo Banyikwa and I wasn't done Purose (talk) 18:12, 13 September 2025 (UTC)

I had no way to know that you weren't done, since you left the article in an unreferenced state, you left no message on the article talk page, and you did not supply an edit summary for any of your edits. The existing content also violated a number of style guidelines, using bold and italic formatting incorrectly, using malformatted headers, and using strange language like "He is (or was) a Member of Parliament" (we should not guess whether he is an MP).

To be honest, your previous editing history also did not give me much hope that you were editing reasonably -- you made almost 500 edits in one day, including some very strange things like making 50 consecutive edits to Madhavrao I, almost all of which incorrectly removed a single comma, and making 115 consecutive edits to Nikos Sofialakis, almost all of which just pointlessly removed and added back punctuation. Almost all your edits have been reverted by other editors. This type of behavior is often used by new editors who are trying to game the system in order to acquire advanced permissions. If that's not what you're doing, it's hard for me to understand your behavior. Why are you making hundreds of edits that each change one character in an article? It is also suspicious that you stopped when you reached 500 edits, the threshold for extended confirmed status. CodeTalker (talk) 01:22, 14 September 2025 (UTC)
