User talk:82.27.206.22

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello. Before making potentially controversial edits, such as those you made to Atiku Abubakar, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Also, make sure to use an informative edit summary for such edits. Otherwise, people might consider your edits to be vandalism. Thank you.

You can't just go and delete another editor's comments on a talk page -- that's considered vandalism and will get you first warned several times, then blocked from editing Wikipedia. You can actually see the sequence of escalating warnings Wikipedia uses at WP:TT. I reverted your deletion.

I also looked over your edits to Atiku Abubakar which got me interested in the article overall; I'm leaving some comments there about that article.

I hope you will continue editing the Atiku Abubakar article -- Abubakar, an unknown to most Wikipedia readers, is arguably one of the 10 most important people in Africa (whether or not one likes him). Wikipedia needs more coverage of Nigerian topics.

Just ... please ... don't delete others' comments from talk pages unless they're clear vandalism.
