"Defamatory" edit summaries
editHow can I prevent edit summaries that make me sound like I made a mistake when I did not. For example, I recently looked at an article I added the pronunciation of a word to. I got that pronunciation from a well know encyclopedia, Columbia Encyclopedia, Columbia University Press, via Infoplease, yet the edit summary undoing my edit claimed that I had not used a reliable source. I had used a reliable source. Should I put my source in my edit summary? Do you have any advice? --Rhbsihvi (talk) 05:57, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
- The technical details are at Wikipedia:Manual of Style (pronunciation). I can't find anything about having to cite pronunciations, but it wouldn't hurt to just mention where you got it in your edit summary. Krashlandon (talk) 17:55, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
The article Food circle has been proposed for deletion. The proposed deletion notice added to the article should explain why.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
