Preview button[edit]

The preview button is shown by a red oval

Hello, I have noticed you have been making a lot of minor changes to a page in a row. Can you please use the preview button when making lots of changes? This will show you what a page will look like after you have made your changes and will reduce the amount of edits showing up in recent changes. If you continue to make multiple edits without using the preview button, we will force you to preview your changes before you can save. Thank you, The Solar Dragon 19:59, December 23, 2019 (EST)

A reminder again, please use the preview button. Thank you. The Solar Dragon 16:31, January 6, 2020 (EST)

Otto Mann[edit]

Hi, regarding this edit, you say in the edit summary "here are a few appearances Otto might have appeared and what I've been finding." You used the word "might", which suggests you don't know for sure. Is this the case, and if so, it should be undone. Thanks, The Solar Dragon 05:09, January 30, 2020 (EST)

Instead of reverting me, you could just answer this message. When you say "might", do you know for sure he appeared in those episodes? If you do not answer and undo it again, it will result in a short block. Thank you, The Solar Dragon 19:17, February 4, 2020 (EST)

Commas and other minor punctuation[edit]

Hello, editing articles to add commas or other minor punctuation which are not required shouldn't be done. If you're making other changes to the article, then it's fine. But if you're only adding in a comma here or there, it's an unnecessary edit. And sometimes it breaks the meaning of the sentence to make it incoherent. Can you refrain from doing so in future please? Thanks, The Solar Dragon 15:18, April 15, 2020 (EDT)

Potty-mouthed anonymous IP[edit]

Thanks for cleaning up after the "trots troll". -- Mythigator (talk) 11:42, April 24, 2020 (EDT)

Preview button[edit]

The preview button is shown by a red oval

Hello, I have noticed you have been making a lot of minor changes to a page in a row. Can you please use the preview button when making lots of changes? This will show you what a page will look like after you have made your changes and will reduce the amount of edits showing up in recent changes. If you continue to make multiple edits without using the preview button, we will force you to preview your changes before you can save. Thank you, The Solar Dragon 16:45, May 25, 2020 (EDT)

Due to you making huge amounts of edits to single pages in a row, I have added you to the force preview groups, so you have to previous your edits before saving. Please try and make bulk edits to the same pages and sections in one go. Thank you. The Solar Dragon 10:55, June 14, 2020 (EDT)

I have been informed that you can't save edits. I just tested forcepreview myself, and you can indeed save edits. You just need to use the preview button first, which is the whole point of the role. preview your edits, make sure they're fine, then save them. The Solar Dragon 06:49, August 11, 2020 (EDT)

Removing Comments from Talk Pages[edit]

Not allowed, per policy. Please see Wikisimpsons:Talk pages. Thank you. -- Mythigator (talk) 01:12, June 14, 2020 (EDT)

DC Comics[edit]

Hello, a big part of the reason for putting you into the force preview group was because of things like this. Making 17 changes to a page in a row, in the same section, like that isn't wanted. Please make larger edits instead of too many edits, especially when editing the same section. The Solar Dragon 09:49, August 16, 2020 (EDT)

WIP template[edit]

Hello, When the {{WIP}} template is on a page, as it was on Sorry Not Sorry/References, and The Road to Cincinnati/References last week, please do not edit the page. This is put there because the page is going through changes over time and is there to avoid edit conflicts, as the template explains. If you see a WIP template on a page, please do not edit the page. Thank you, The Solar Dragon 09:35, December 7, 2020 (EST)

Editing talk page comments[edit]

Hello, please do not edit talk page comments, especially those that are not your own. This goes against our talk page policy. Thank you, The Solar Dragon 07:04, January 8, 2021 (EST)

Songs[edit]

Hi Homer. I undid a couple of your recent edits made in the list of songs. The song "Signs" by Five Man Electrical Band can be heard at the amusement park, while "Top of the World" is played as background music at the Kwik-E-Mart Central Office. Here is a detailed list [1] with a brief description of when the songs are played. Greetings, --Simpsons88 (talk) 13:12, January 19, 2021 (EST)
