In response to your feedback

It seems that your pictures were of subpar quality compared to existing pictures on the page. Normally, this isn't a big deal, but there are already many pictures on the page for the space shuttle.

February 2016

Hello, I'm Srich32977. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Trinity Broadcasting Network, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. The edit you make did not have an edit summary and it was not an minor edit. If they are in Tustin, please provide a reference. Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 04:39, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! – S. Rich (talk) 04:45, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. – S. Rich (talk) 04:46, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Ocean Institute. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. – S. Rich (talk) 06:23, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Compromised log-in?

I suspect your log-in to WP has been compromised. I see a variety of edits which do not meet WP editing standards. Please review your history and evaluate. Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 06:28, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

--Reply to the comment above:

No it hasn't. I've been adding a lot of useful information lately. I am new to editing on Wikipedia and I am still learning. Sorry if it goes against Wikipedia editing standards as I am unaware that ever existed. I'll make sure my new edits comply.

11:09 PM PST

I'm glad to see your account is secure. What first caught my eye was the edit to TBN, where you changed the headquarters city. This was not a minor edit, you did not explain the change in the edit summary, and you did not provide a citation to verify the information. You've done the same thing with the LA metro article. Some of the changes are helpful and some are not. When you capitalized all of the words in the various section headings, you were not following our Manual of Style for MOS:HEADINGS that says only the first word is capitalized unless the heading is a proper noun type word. I suggest you take the WP:TUTORIAL to learn more. Thanks for your contributions. – S. Rich (talk) 19:42, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jolly Monument moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Hi Jolly Monument, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the confirms on the Articles for Creation template atop the page.

August 2018

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to San Diego Comic-Con, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Deletion of sentences of content is not a minor edit. It was SPAM, and there is no consensus of limiting the article to only official off site events. --RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 18:51, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate it! Bluesnote (talk) 07:20, 13 August 2020 (UTC) == I hope it stays. It does have a high amount of notability, and taking it down would set a precedent to many other articles.
