Adding bare URLs
[edit]Hello, thank you for you various edits, but when adding citations, please familiarize yourself with the cite template and not use bare URLs. They don't provide as useful of information to the reader and they're prone to link rot when the URL no longer works. There are a lot of useful tools to help in your gadgets preferences. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me. – macaddct1984 (talk | contribs) 04:25, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
Signing in article space
[edit]Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I've noticed that you have been adding your signature to some of your edits to articles, such as the edit you made to Melbourne Cricket Ground. This is a common mistake to make and has probably already been corrected. Please do not sign your edits to article content, as the article's edit history serves the function of attributing contributions, so you only need to use your signature to make discussions more readable, such as on talk pages or project pages such as the Teahouse. If you would like further information about distinguishing types of pages, please see What is an article? Again, thank you for contributing, and enjoy your Wikipedia experience! Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 08:52, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
External links in bodytext
[edit]Hello, I'm Arjayay. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the main body of Mitchell Moses. Generally, any relevant external links should be listed in an "External links" section at the end of the article and meet the external links guidelines. Links within the body of an article should be internal wikilinks. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 08:53, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Zillmere, Queensland. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Please look over the overlink section for what generally should and shouldn't be wikilinked. Countries broadly fall into the "don't link" category. Also, be careful not to unnecessarily introduce links to disambiguation pages. – macaddct1984 (talk | contribs) 19:29, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
