User talk:AntiVandaliser2024
Welcome to my talk page! Please do not bring discussions here from other pages. Please use diffs when talking about edits. If you leave me a message on my talk page, I will reply on my talk page, so you may want to watch this page. I will not continue to watch a talk page if the discussion has migrated. I check my watchlist regularly. I don't always add talk pages to my watchlist if I comment on them, unless it's a user talk page or I started an important discussion. Thank you.

In regards to reverting vandalism
[edit]Hi TheTeam219. I noticed one of your edit summaries on my watchlist. I wouldn't have described this edit as vandalism, as it seems to be a good faith edit, even if the additional wikilink is somewhat out there in regards to relevance. I'd suggest taking a look at this page so you can be more familiar with the correct usage of the term. Cheers, Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 12:53, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
Hey! The stuff that I added, was removed by an IP address. So I added it back.
