AfC notification: Draft:Cross-amputation has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Cross-amputation. Thanks! S0091 (talk) 15:54, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

Many thanks for editing my article on cross-amputation and for turning some of the links into footnotes. I am not a regular Wikipeda editor so don't know how to to this myself. If you have the time to turn the remaining links I provided into footnotes, to bring the piece in line with usual practice, I would be very grateful. If you could then publish the piece that would be even better as, otherwise, the piece might be deleted after six months. I think it would be a useful piece to have on Wikipedia. A google search of the term shows dozens of mostly news articles about the practice, but few definitions. Okinawa1966 (talk) 12:16, 22 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi Okinawa1966! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Extraordinary rendition that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. - Sumanuil. _{(talk to me)} 01:03, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
