[edit]At Conestoga College and British intelligence agencies, you have changed wording in direct quotes and newspaper article titles. Please don't do that, even if they have errors or wording you think could be improved. Thank you, Jessicapierce (talk) 18:11, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
Same issue at National Security Guard, as well as the following issue. Jessicapierce (talk) 18:24, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
Hello. In a recent edit to the page National Security Guard, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.
For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the first author of the article used.
In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you.
- You are making a great deal of improvements with your edits - thank you for that - but please do be aware of these issues, and perhaps review the Manual of Style. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 18:24, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
Because this has already been explained to you, I have recemoved your recent edits at Research and Analysis Wing, which unnecessesarily changed the English variant.
I have also repaired the incorrect changes you made to citation titles on several other pages. Jessicapierce (talk) 22:58, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

I have removed your changes at Spetsnaz because when you "corrected" a table's formatting, you destroyed it, badly damaging page readability.
Please learn more about formatting and Wikipedia conventions before continuing to make changes. You are creating unnecessary cleanup work for others. Jessicapierce (talk) 23:03, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I'm Jessicapierce. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Spetsnaz have been undone because they did not appear constructive.

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Jessicapierce (talk) 23:07, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

National varieties of English
[edit]Hello. In a recent edit to the page MI6, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

- The same problem at Jawan (film) - I have reverted the relevant changes.
- In addition, please stop changing the titles of cited articles to "correct" them. Jessicapierce (talk) 18:36, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

- Similarly, I have reverted the extensive edits you made to Royal Canadian Mounted Police, which is written in Canadian English. Please respect the national varieties of English used in different articles. Thank you. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 19:51, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
