I have undone your edits a number of times and you don't appear to be reading edit summaries - please read the above link and stop overlinking, linking common words and the like. It makes it incredibly difficult to read articles and is generally not accepted. CUPIDICAE💕 01:52, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for your feedback. I apologize, I wasn't trying to cause any issues. It won't happen again. Ironicnamejpg (talk) 02:00, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
- Hi, Ironicnamejpg, do you often make your edits from the "Suggested edits" portion of your homepage? Sometimes some of the articles it suggests to add links to have already been linked by other newcomers and don't need many more links. You can check whether this has happened by going to the page history to see what edits have been made.
- And don't worry overly much about making mistakes as long as you fix the problems once you know about them (edit summaries are your friend). We all make mistakes – that's how we learn. Thanks for your continued efforts to improve Wikipedia! Perfect4th (talk) 03:09, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
- That's a good point, I hadn't realized suggestbot was actually doing that. CUPIDICAE💕 03:12, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
- I think it's part of the WP:GTF newcomer tasks. I use them sometimes as well, but many editors tend to work on the articles categorized as needing more links in my experience. Perfect4th (talk) 14:34, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

- Also, if you're interested in adding more links, Ironicnamejpg, you could take a look at Wikipedia:Orphan, which explains how to integrate articles into the encyclopedia that are currently not linked to (a list of those articles can be found here, but you'll want to read the instructions at WP:Orphan first). Perfect4th (talk) 14:45, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
Yeah, I do usually edit articles from the "suggested edits" section. I've neglected to read edit summaries, so thank you for letting me know about that. Ironicnamejpg (talk) 15:18, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
May 2022
[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. Most of your edit summaries say "Punctuation", but that is not what the edit is doing. Please summarise your edits correctly. Escape Orbit (Talk) 14:19, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for letting me know. Sometimes I put very brief edit summaries, or none at all, if the edit is so small that it seems insignificant. I will write better edit summaries from now on. Ironicnamejpg (talk) 14:23, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
Hi Ironicnamejpg! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at List of suicides in the 21st century that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. Greyjoy talk 09:53, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for letting me know, I should have done more research first. I used the "minor edit" tag to highlight small edits, but I will edit summarize correctly from now on. Ironicnamejpg (talk) 10:03, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
Your recent additions to List of people killed for being transgender
[edit]Hi there. I noticed you added a number of entries to List of people killed for being transgender. While they were formatted correctly and adequately sourced, they seem to be outside the scope of this list. Before making more edits to the list, please ensure that you limit your additions to people who reliable sources have confirmed to have been killed because they were transgender. If the motive is unknown or unclear, especially if the perpetrator is unknown as well, they should not be added and such additions are most likely to be removed. Regards SoWhy 15:42, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for letting me know. I had noticed that others were also adding individuals whose motive for their death was uncertain, so I guess I started doing it too. I will remove the edits I made where the motive for the killings was uncertain, and I won't make any more edits like that again. Ironicnamejpg (talk) 16:11, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!

Thank you so much! I appreciate it Ironicnamejpg (talk) 08:20, 13 May 2022 (UTC)
Serial comma
[edit]Serial comma might interest you, along with articles like this one; when copyeditors have removed unnecessary serial commas, it's not usually useful to add them back in. Regarads, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 02:59, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
I apologize for adding unnecessary commas. I should have read the edit summaries on the articles I was editing. I was always taught to use the Oxford comma, so it's a habit of mine,but I won't do it again. Thank you for letting me know. Ironicnamejpg (talk) 03:08, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for May 27
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Heavy metal genres, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Doom. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:05, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
Sorry about that, I meant to remove that, as I was looking to see if there was a related term on that page, but I forgot to remove it. I won't add any disambiguation pages again. Ironicnamejpg (talk) 06:08, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
List of suicides
[edit]Hi. Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for working to improve the site with your edit to List of suicides, as we really appreciate your participation. However, the uncited material had to be reverted, because Wikipedia cannot accept uncited material. Wikipedia requires that the material in its articles be accompanied by reliable, verifiable (usually secondary) sources explicitly cited in the article text in the form of an inline citation, which you can learn to make here. If you ever have any other questions about editing, or need help regarding the site's policies, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks.

- This IP is a sock of prolific sockmaster Cadeken. See WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Cadeken/Archive, who has created dozens of accounts and used even more IPs. The editing pattern is identical. IPs in southern California always pop up when a registered sock is blocked. The IPs seek meatpuppets with this message to evade a block or policies. Sundayclose (talk) 14:51, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
