May 2024

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, Buckskin Frank Leslie. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments belong on the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and may respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. Adakiko (talk) 18:41, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Adakiko, Thank you for explaining how I need to restrict my opinions on the subjects of articles, and post my thoughts on changing an article to the accompanying talk page. I am only starting and learning. Best wishes, Dan 70.27.184.80 (talk) 14:31, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
