Hello, 174.126.233.219, I see that you have made several consecutive edits to the same page. I want to point out the Show Preview button. It's right next to the Save Page button when you edit. You should use it whenever you are making a lot of experimental edits, for example, when you are trying to get formatting right. Using the Show Preview button is quicker and easier than saving and clicking "edit" again, and will keep [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes]] and page histories from being flooded.

Oxford comma[edit]

Recently you made several edits removing the final comma in a list. A quick thing, having a comma or no comma to end off the list isn't really a big issue and, as far as I know, both grammatically correct, so there's no reason to change all the lists like that.

Have a reminder of this. I noticed you continued to make edits solely to remove the final comma in a list. However because both variants of the punctuation is correct, making edits only to change the sentence structure is actually against the manual of style: if two versions of word spelling, sentence structure, punctuation etc are both grammatically correct (reguardless of region), there is no preference to which should be used in the article, therefore
"one should not make an edit to a page that consists of only changing such spelling/grammar."
For example making edits only to change color into colour is not allowed. The only time this is allowed is if it is to maintain consistency in an article. Don't make edits like this in the future. Omegα Toαd For my signature. 06:08, August 25, 2020 (EDT)

Reminder of this, your last few edits are doing exactly this sort of thing. It's considered very poor form here to make edits only to change the Oxford comma. Please refrain from doing these edits.

Using Show Preview[edit]

Hello, 174.126.233.219, I see that you have made several consecutive edits to the same page. I want to point out the Show Preview button. It's right next to the Save Page button when you edit. You should use it whenever you are making a lot of experimental edits, for example, when you are trying to get formatting right. Using the Show Preview button is quicker and easier than saving and clicking "edit" again, and will keep Recent Changes and page histories from being flooded.
