Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in List of unrecognized tribes in the United States, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Wikipedia:Short description#"none" as a short description calls for list articles to have a short description of "none". I have accordingly reverted your edit to the previous state of "none" for the short description. Donald Albury 19:21, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I have reverted two more of your changes to short description, for the exact same reason as Donald Albury told you previously. Please stop making changes of this nature, and please be sure to use an edit summary with every edit you make. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 04:52, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your edits to the short description field. Checking further after the message above, I see you've been doing the same thing with dozens of other articles. I have undone your changes to the following: (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72). Going forward, please do not do any more of these. You have other edits which are beneficial to the project; please stick to those. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 07:04, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

When I created the descriptions, it was based on other similar descriptions (ex. Overview of education in United States, Overview of education in China, List of NZ provinces by hdi). I tried to stay within the 90 word limit. I also tried not to use terms that were too technical. I read the short description manual of style numerous times. I am still in my early teens. Nothing that I wrote appeared to violate the manual style to me. I promise I won’t make these types of edits again. In fact, I’m unlikely to make any future edits. 71.246.239.30 (talk) 02:08, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I was trying to follow the manual of style when I made the descriptions but not plagiarize and not use the title of the article as the description. 71.246.239.30 (talk) 02:15, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
