The edit in question was not concerned with changing national varieties of English. The school in question is in Ghana (a former British colony) where the UK term "Secondary" is used far more than the US term "Senior High"; it was not, though, a matter of US En -v- UK En.

The school has been known by both names (often simultaneously!) e.g. the Wiki article on the school used both terms throughout. As part of my edit of the school's article, I made the use of the name consistent through the article (because Wiki likes consistency), which involved choosing to use one name or the other. I opted to use the school's official name. The Ghanaian Government's Ministry of Education calls the school Kumassi Anglican Secondary School on its 2016 web page; the sign on the front gate reads "Kumassi Anglican Secondary School"; it is widely known as KASS (for Kumassi Anglican Secondary School) and, indeed, the results website of the Ghana National Science and Maths Quiz refers to it as KASS. In changing the name on the quiz article, I was

1. extending the consistency
2. ensuring that the link connected to the correct place and
3. correcting the initial error in the quiz article.

I did not change the proper noun from the official name; I changed it to the official name! — Preceding unsigned comment added by TeekeeyMisha (talk • contribs) 22:00, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for my star! I shall treasure it for ever. (Of course, you may want to withdraw it now - the link on the Ghana National quiz page probably doesn't link to the school page I edited any more and clicking it will make the internet implode or something...)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When using certain templates (such as welcome templates and user warnings) on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:uw-test1}} instead of {{uw-test1}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. Thank you. Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ (talk) 23:20, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like you have selectively edited, and not followed wiki rules of objectivity,2602:30A:C7D7:E590:51A2:2227:5921:EBBC (talk) 11:48, 8 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Question: Could you please explain how the stuff in the section, such as all the refs there, are unreliable, and how using vague terms instead of proper nouns is a good idea? Wikipedia discourages libelous/defamatory content in biographies of living persons, but I think criminal records are okay as long as it is written from a neutral perspective and the sources are verifiable and reliable. There is also no such thing as objectivity. -- AI RPer (talk) 11:51, 8 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

PS. I tried to search for objectivity policies and guidelines and I couldn't find any of them. I do know that there is no such thing as objectivity. -- AI RPer (talk) 12:05, 8 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for reverting back to the vandal's version - I jumped the gun there, since you had dealt with it fine. GAB^gab 16:20, 9 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I know. -- AI RPer (talk) 16:51, 9 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It looks as if your customised signature is a violation of WP:SIGLEN, so please correct it. --David Biddulph (talk) 12:25, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Does it keep showing this; API is only for examples of style and formatting. Do not use it in actual articles., instead of links to my user pages? Because I used the {mxtn|templates} so it could have that computery font look, either it has something to do with the way our computers work or because I use Vector and you use a style other than Vector, or something else. Because when I use my signature, it always looks like this; AI RPer (talk), but in monospace font. (like the font you see when source editing), maybe your thing is different? I might consider trying a different way to get that font just in case. Usually the policy you link to is against long signatures, but not short signatures. -- AI RPer (talk) 12:35, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your signature is well over 600 bytes, instead of the 255 specified maximum, and spreads over about 5 lines in the edit window, as follows:

'''[[User:AI RPer|{{#ifeq:{{NAMESPACE}}|{{ns:0}}|{{FormattingError|[[:{{#invoke:TEMPLATENAME|main}}]] is only for examples of style and formatting. Do not use it in actual articles.}}|<span class="neutral-example-mono" style="font-family:monospace,Courier;" {{#if:|title="{{{title}}}"}}>AI RPer</span>}}]]''' (''[[User talk:AI RPer|{{#ifeq:{{NAMESPACE}}|{{ns:0}}|{{FormattingError|[[:{{#invoke:TEMPLATENAME|main}}]] is only for examples of style and formatting. Do not use it in actual articles.}}|<span class="neutral-example-mono" style="font-family:monospace,Courier;" {{#if:|title="{{{title}}}"}}>talk</span>}}]]'') 12:35, 11 October 2016 (UTC).

Thanks. I changed my signature from {mxtn|Example} to {font|Example|font=Consolas}. Hope that fixes the problem. I have noticed that my signature was ridiculously long in the source editor. -- AI RPer (talk) 12:46, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Better than it was, but still 427 bytes, rather than 255 max as given at WP:SIGLEN. - David Biddulph (talk) 12:51, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently when I sign my posts, my signature becomes all this;

<span style="font-family:{{#if: Consolas |Consolas|sans-serif}};font-size:{{#if: |{{{size}}}|100%}};color:{{#if: |{{{color}}}|black}};background-color:{{#if: |{{{bgcolor}}}|transparent}};{{#if: |title:{{{title}}}|}};{{#if: |{{{css}}}|}}">{{#if: '''[[User:AI RPer|AI RPer]]''' (''[[User talk:AI RPer|talk]]'') |'''[[User:AI RPer|AI RPer]]''' (''[[User talk:AI RPer|talk]]'')|{{{text}}}}}</span>

When I only typed this into the signature box at Preferences;

{{font|[[User:AI RPer|AI RPer]] ([[User talk:AI RPer|talk]])|font="Consolas"}}

And now I'm wondering how to fix it so it doesn't expand like that. -- AI RPer (talk) 21:11, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Don't spam my talk page and user page with your idiotic false accusations again. If you are here to build an encyclopaedia, build it. If you are here to pester people, find someone else to pester. 222.29.61.49 (talk) 16:02, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I need some urgent help here! Know that page for that about Columbine movie that came out this year: I'm Not Ashamed? Well, I'm requesting you get rid of that page, I don't know how to get rid of it but I would most definitely appreciate if you could get rid of it, because for some reason I can't! I just don't think it belongs here on Wikipedia, whatever you do, do not vandalize it or ruin anything, just get rid of it or move it! It is a controversial page I think should not belong on here (on this site), because it does not apply to our terms: 1. It is inappropriate and religious, stupid,fascist,illegal,old-fashioned and Conservative. 2. It does not suit wikipedia's terms as it contains original research, unimportant BS,(bias aka BULLSHIT), reads like a religious advertisement which isn't a thing Wikipedia should have, and might be dangerous to others as it might endanger their sensitive minds that should not believe in any worldwide religion (especially Christianity and Islam or agnosticism), influencing them to do bad things, under the orders of something that does not exist but only in their imagination (jesus christ,etc. and so on) 3. And by all definition, is utterly retarded since the page says "Witchcraft, satanism, paganism, atheism, communism, the theory of scientific evolution all lead to violence but belief in God, Bible and everything related does not". I request urgently for that I'm Not Ashamed page to be permanentley removed from this site. Thank you! :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Some Creep 06 (talk • contribs) 19:11, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
