Please do not restring my comments or change the headings of sections I create

Your edits [1] changed the stringing of my comments and also broke incoming links to the section. Please do not edit my comments. I have asked you before. [2] Andrewa (talk) 07:38, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I did not edit your comments. I just adapted the indentation of discussions to keep it as clear as possible. You have a confusing way to indent your comments, and I simply tried to make it legible for readers without altering the content. And I did immediately corrected the link https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AMove_review%2FLog%2F2014_March&diff=603408821&oldid=603397546 to keep it functional. If you have linking problems, tell me and I will correct them. And instead of commenting my modifications this way, you could think about why you deleted my vote https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk%3AManual_of_Style&diff=603414976&oldid=603409555... Maybe I should complain rather than you ;-) Mama meta modal (talk) 09:28, 9 April 2014 (UTC).[reply]
You did edit my comments. I deleted your vote because this time I just reverted the whole sequence of your edits, rather than waste time sorting out which of them were valid. Your efforts at making my comments legible for readers are misguided at best. Readers deserve the opportunity to see what I said, rather than what you think I meant to say or should have said.
Such edits are particularly inappropriate in view of your disclosed opposition to capitalisation.
Please stop it. Andrewa (talk) 11:03, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You removed the bullets at the left side of my comments. You also indenting some replies under different threads. PaleAqua (talk) 21:20, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Bullet points are in principle used for votes or initial messages. The comments and responses are then indented below without bullets. This usual system has proved it usefulness and clarity. You can try to make things more complicated, but do not complain afterwards if it works ;-) Mama meta modal (talk) 21:55, 9 April 2014 (UTC).[reply]

Please do not tinker with threading and heading levels at WT:MOS. It is very disruptive. --Stfg (talk) 20:47, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I do think that it is better to keep the various discussions on this subject link rather than to spread everywhere... Mama meta modal (talk) 21:00, 9 April 2014 (UTC).[reply]
By doing so you break section links and also make it harder to follow page history and more difficult to read the pages. Especially removing bullets ( such as the one I have at the start of this line ) which help make it clearer when a paragraph is from a different comment, vs an indented inline quote or just a second paragraph by the same commenter. While it is not your intent you are making the discussions harder to read, especially in light of the longer comments in this discussion. You have had multiple people to ask you to stop at this point. PaleAqua (talk) 21:20, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Let me know when you encounter problems with links and I will help to update them. Mama meta modal (talk) 21:22, 9 April 2014 (UTC).[reply]
You can't update the section links in edit summaries. --Stfg (talk) 22:41, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
