Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Ira Steven Behr, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. M.Bitton (talk) 16:16, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the welcome and the advice, but I did none of those things listed under Bad Practice. Nothing was deleted or edited. All I did was add a comment agreeing with the original post about the article seeming overly sanitized. I've been doing this for years when I see a comment I agree with, and it's never been an issue. But thank you for your input.

I think it was most likely accidental, but in your edit, you removed a letter and punctuation mark from the comment above yours (which changed tripe. to trip). That's probably what M.Bitton was referring to, about "editing comments". Schazjmd (talk) 00:46, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Please be more careful. BilCat (talk) 02:11, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
