February 2018

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. This is in relation to the numerous changes that you've made changing the date format to many articles from date-month-year to month-date-year. Many countries (pretty much all outside of the USA) don't use mdy dates, so please do not change the date format to mdy if the subject relates to a place outside of the USA, unless a "use mdy dates" tag is present. You can find which date format tag is used on a page when editing and looking at the hidden categories. Countries in the Commonwealth of Nations all use the dmy format too.

Also, please stop changing the wording of the population data in US city/county articles. It is worded like that on thousands of articles. Magnolia677 (talk) 23:15, 13 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:OVERLINK we don't generally link countries. Please don't do that. --John (talk) 16:44, 13 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
