Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to Minimum contacts: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit was inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. — SpikeToronto 21:18, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the article Minimum contacts has an edit summary that appears to be inaccurate or inappropriate. Please use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did, and feel free to use the sandbox for any tests you may want to do.

Your edit summary indicated that you used Huggle to revert the previous edit. However, you do not have the privileges required to run the Huggle software. Therefore, your edit summary was inaccurate and misleading. Continuing to use inaccurate and misleading edit summaries could result in a report to ANI and consequent disciplinary action. Thank you. — SpikeToronto 21:18, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
