Hi Uisce1! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Paddy Fahey (athlete) 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)} 03:02, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

Hi Sumanuil. This is my father and I do know the facts of his life hence I'm correcting inaccurate information such as the year of his death and just adding a little bit of his successes seeing as some random person whom I don't know has already put something on there. So what do I need to do to keep the little piece that I uploaded on there please? Thanks Uisce1 (talk) 09:43, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

Sumanuil, I also want to upload a picture of him but that does not seem possible either. It's from the 1948 Olympics and outside of copyright I would say by now. In any case, Journalists use it whenever they write anything about my father. I am a tv producer so I get that it's difficult to verify everything etc Uisce1 (talk) 10:03, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

Ok you have given me a lot of information that is not pertaining to me or this situation. All I seek to do is correct his year of death, obviously I have evidence of that if required plus add the small paragraph about his career. No links with any organizations, no spamming, nothing. So I will propose changes on the talk pages as you suggested and we will see what happens. Paddy Fahey died in 2006 not 2008. Thanks in advance. Uisce1 (talk) 11:00, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
