Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to Kimora Lee Simmons does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

• User contributions
• Recent changes
• Watchlists
• Revision differences
• IRC channels
• Related changes
• New pages list
• Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks!

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Doug Weller talk 09:51, 20 March 2020 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 hours for persistently making disruptive edits. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Guy (help!) 15:38, 20 March 2020 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. . Frankly it should probably be indefinite but let's hear your side of the story first. Who arrives at Wikipedia and immediately starts rapid-fire changing of categories? Apart from sockpuppets, that is. Guy (help!) 15:40, 20 March 2020 (UTC)

I’m a newbie, can someone advise on how my actions were disruptive. Some of the sit I had were base on individual incorrectly be identified as being African American and other was that many of those people aren’t FASHION DESIGNERS- have a licensing deal doesn’t make one a fashion designer.

Am I suppose to be asking for permission to make a change --ADOS MMXX (talk) 02:22, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

What you should do is when you edits are challenged or disputed, go to the article talk page and discuss them with other editors to achieve a consensus as to how to proceed. In addition, you have marked many of your edits as "minor edits", to others this might look like an attempt to conceal them from scrutiny. "Minor edits" should only be marked as such for things like fixing spelling or grammar, not substantive changes to an article. If you wish to request unblock, please follow the instructions in the block notice. 331dot (talk) 11:13, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
