Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Quizzaciously has been reverted.
Your edit here to Quizzaciously was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCn8zs912OE%7Chere) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 16:17, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm XLinkBot. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the page Quizzaciously, because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links.

October 2022

If you check the list of prime ministers of japan in the last box there is not the current minister but Shinzo Abe. Similarly it is possible to put David Cameron instead of the current one. Best regards Peter39c (talk) 20:48, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Is this a widespread convention throughout Wikipedia or unique to Japan's list? Either way, I'd strongly suggest finding out what others think via the talk page first. (No explanation for suddenly replacing the portrait of the UK's just-appointed first non-white prime minister isn't a great look even if it was in good faith.) Thanks for reaching out.

On the List of chancellors of Germany in the last box there is Angela Merkel, and not the last Chancellor. However, I do not make any other changes on the page. I don't want to appear disrespectful in any way. Best regards Peter39c (talk) 21:10, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
