Rapid edits

edit

Thanks for your edits but please be aware that there is no need to make changes like these: diff + diff + diff. More importantly, this edit seems to have introduced an error. Please check your other edits to see if anything else needs correction. Also, please fix your edit notice to be much smaller. Johnuniq (talk) 04:31, 29 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Johnuniq:: Thanks for letting me know. There was a need to perform the above 3 edits. In order to make this category empty, I made these edits and successful fixed the problems present in the templates. I don't see any errors introduced by my edit. There was just a mistake that I mistakenly replaced 'October' with '11', not ’10'. You might also correct that instead of reverting. Regarding my edit notice, I've provided a comprehensive edit notice. Why do you want it to be shortened? Thank you very much. Gold ★ 786 07:33, 29 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
Troy Avenue station is still in Category:Pages using Template:End date and age with unknown parameters. It worked using "May" as the month so that must be acceptable. The reason it is still in that category is that the article has |mf=yes in the template and that is not accepted by the check at {{end date and age}}. The age templates accept mf despite month-first being the default in order to make it clear that someone has explicitly chosen to make it month first. Johnuniq (talk) 08:18, 29 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
Johnuniq: Well if you know then you might fix that. Mistakes happen during removing mistakes. But one thing is that I'm not trying to make pointless and/or unnecessary edits. Regarding my edit notice, what you thing to be shortened or fixed? Morever, I've also another request from you to please rename my account from 'Gold Star 786' to 'Gold Star'. Thank you very much.

Tools

edit

Hello Gold star, have you installed TWINKLE and/or REDWARN? These are very helpful tools. I'd suggest you to install them, if you haven't yet. –Hulgedtalk08:24, 29 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hulged: I knew about these anti-vandalism tools (see this page). But currently I'm unable to use them because I'm not autoconfirmed yet. 3 more days and I'll start using them after gaining autoconfirmed rights. I appreciate your enthusiasm and efforts to help new users in learning about Wikipedia. Just wanted to ask you that did the bot archive your talk page or not? Thank you very much. ;-) Gold ★ 786 10:40, 29 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
