Mike Carona + edit issue

Greetings. Your edit to Mike Carona, which removed unsourced material, was OK, but... The first paragraph removed has the 'ring' of believability. I'm going to contact the editor about that. (The second paragraph looks like POV pushing.)

More importantly, you're using the "minor edit" designation entirely inappropriately. A quick glance at the top of your contribs didn't show any minor edits. Check out Help:Minor edit. Regards Tapered (talk) 02:04, 28 June 2019 (UTC)

I did not use the minor edit tag. CLCStudent (talk) 02:38, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
Then there's a Gremlin at work. Your contribs page is full of them, and if you visit Mike Carona, you'll see your edit labeled m in glorious, living black and white. Tapered (talk) 02:55, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
Well, it must be automatic. I do not see it. CLCStudent (talk) 02:56, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
Here's the basis of my humor. [1] Tapered (talk) 03:18, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
Gremlin someplace. I'm using Windows 7 HP Business, Firefox or Chrome. All previous above from Firefox. This is from Chrome. There are fewer "m"s in your Contribs, but the Mike Carona edit is still labeled "m." Regards Tapered (talk) 03:39, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
I was stopping by to ask why you blanked a conversation on the main talk page, but saw this discussion. So first, why did you blank a large conversation as vandalism? It did have white supremacy in the title, maybe that caused the trigger-happy response? (If so, I understand the quick response when on vandal patrol, but please slow down just a bit to make sure the reverts are valid. That way, you're less likely to discourage new editors, or upset long-standing ones.) Second, the m is automatic if you're using Twinkle and marking a revert as vandalism. Twinkle follows the guidance at Help:Minor edits, "A check to the minor edit box signifies that only superficial differences exist between the current and previous versions. Examples include typographical corrections, corrections of minor formatting errors, and reversion of obvious vandalism." Orvilletalk 21:17, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
