I just rolled back your edits to Pronoun Trouble

Most of your edits to Pronoun Trouble were stylistic choices and did not cause any problems, but also would not cause any issues if they were removed. These edits were problems and needed to be rolled back:

  • You removed the "context" tag from an example without providing context.
  • You replaced a date with the word "recent", thus requiring either rollback or the addition of the "when" tag to have somebody come in and add the date back in.
  • You replaced "Category:Japanese Language" (which exists) with "Category:Useful Notes/Japanese Language" (which does not exist).

In the future, please do not remove requests for context without providing the requested context, and please do not remove actual data such as real-world dates.

A barnstar for you!

Automatic Moderation

Hello Umbire the Phantom!

As a result of the Great Miraheze Spam Flood that affected multiple wikis in December 2020, we have instituted moderation of posts. Most people's edits and image uploads will not appear immediately, the way that they would on Wikipedia... but, now, yours will - no more waiting for a moderator to approve your edits.

This is a privilege given for consistently good edits and being a Troper in good standing, not a right. Congratulations!

Hey!

I have started the Hollywood Malware trope. Please come and help out. RocketMaster (talk) 14:15, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Can we talk?

Hey, I've noticed that you've been editing a lot of my own edits to pages such as the in-progress Beary Cute and Mighty Roar pages, usually cutting down on the informal bits and fixing grammar/adding red links and the like. While fixing grammatical issues is definitely appreciated (And my apologies for accidentally making things harder on you), I'm honestly not happy about less formal edits of mine being removed. As a longtime TV Tropes user who had enough and left for this site because I had grown tired of how stuffy and formal TV Tropes has gotten, I can't say I'm too happy about seeing the same thing happen here. It's nice to read articles that are informal, fun, and feel like they were written by actual human beings and unless I'm misintrepreting things, the rules here encourage such practices within reason. So if you're okay with it, can I revert my edits back to the way they were?

I hope I don't come off as rude or confrontational, by the way. Whether it works out in my favor or not, I just want to get my feelings out there and see if we can come to some sort of agreement.
