African -> Black

edit

Please try to find consensus before making mass changes in established terminology, and review talkpage archives for discussions concerning the terms used for African-Americans. In general, piped links like you've been making are to be avoided when there's a primary topic under that name. Acroterion (talk) 02:27, 11 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

And please use accurate edit summaries - many of your edits have nothing to do with capitalization or grammar, but are summarized as such. Acroterion (talk) 02:29, 11 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Ok thank you

  Hi Silindor! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at African Americans 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.
