Characters, not points
[edit]The "370 points" you mention here [1] aren't "points," they're merely the difference in character count as a result of your edit. There are no points to be had on Wikipedia. While I'm here, I want to emphasize that it's considered a bit rude to tell people in edit summaries not to change things you've done - everybody's edits are open to editing, revision and scrutiny, and it's best practice to discuss edits that others have contested before you put them back in. Please use talkpages for that. Acroterion (talk) 00:57, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
Not 370 points
[edit]By the way, the +370
is not a number of points, but actually is just a measure of how many characters you added or removed. A lot of the best edits remove characters, not add them. Adding large numbers of characters does not necessarily mean something is good.
But anyway, if you like large positive numbers, please accept these points from me: +2,147,483,647
You can't get any more points than that, so please be very careful when adding characters in future :) MPS1992 (talk) 00:58, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
