Manual of Style
[edit]In the welcome message above there is a link to a simplified version of the manual of style that is used here on Wikipedia. Please can you familiarise yourself with this and also with the full version, WP:MOS. Many of the edits you are making either go against the style conventions for Wikipedia, or in some cases make needless changes to articles which employ a valid style, such as the bulk of (all the ones I checked at least) of your MOS:OXFORD changes.
