Your Edits

Hello. All your edits seem to either make little/no change to an article or otherwise don't contribute to it. Could I ask what you're doing? I noticed this happening on many other wikis as well; small or relatively unnoticeable edits with English edit summaries (on non-English wikis) that don't really help the articles. Thanks, Vermont (talk) 01:53, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

Hi, Vermont, and thank you for dropping the line up here. I'm actually teaching a course on how to edit Wikipedia to a group of newbies, so I thought dropping a few notes here and there in the summary would be beneficial for them since it is faster to follow through my edits and imitate than learn on their own. I'm sorry if some of the edits seemed to be disruptive, but I think the bulk of my students are getting the idea now, so my activities might slow down moving forward as I take a more reviewing side of their work instead (in contrast to the instructional role). I appreciate the advice again, and please reach out with any other comments if you see anything that stands out. Have a great weekend! Best --Ciphers (talk) 03:57, 17 November 2018 (UTC)
