My 'unproductive' revert[edit]

I take it from your edit summary that you thought my revert was unproductive. Well, I had the same thought when you added a photo of an unidentified Akaroa church to the article, and given that it's an internal view, it's almost unidentifiable; in my opinion, there's nothing productive about having a cation "Church of Akaroa". Just to be productive, I should thus let you know that I have reverted your Akaroa edit on the German Wikipedia for the same reason. Schwede 66 00:26, 25 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Schwede66: A productive way is to write this message here before undo, just for asking what's the name of the church. I'm not the only one who can add informations on wikipedia, if someone from Akaroa for example see the picture before i get the message, the name can be added, if the picture as been deleted, it can't be added...

But that productive way requires that I remember to follow up if there isn't any action, and chances are that I would forget. You have an edit history of 12 edits on the English Wikipedia, and it's much simpler to revert an edit, as you get notified of it, and it puts the onus on you. For that reason, I revert editors with a low edit count rather than start a discussion first. Schwede 66 00:56, 25 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
