Thalassery

Are you in any way related to Tellicherrian or Suchethpr? Though your editing patterns are similar, I am going to assume you are not. I'm afraid your edit to Thalassery introduced numerous violations into the article, so I had to revert it. Most notably, the addition of "notable" people is strictly against WP:NLIST, see the article's talk page, but also some other, e.g. MOS:BOLD. I am going to try to re-introduce some of the material, I suggest you discuss this on the talk page. Welcome to Wikipedia, and I hope you choose to stay. --Muhandes (talk) 07:47, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hermann Gundert

I made some improvements to your contribution to Hermann Gundert. The source you gave ""Achatiyum Aadyakaala Pathramaasikakalum"(Printing,Early Newspapers and Magazines).Madhyamangalum Malayalasahithyavum(Media and Malayalam LiterartureKunhukrishnan,K.Sivasankaran,M.K et al.Thiruvanathapuram:State Institute of Languages,2000." is unclear to me. Are these three books? Can you please explain what it means? --Muhandes (talk) 08:47, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

November 2010

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Thalassery. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. Muhandes (talk) 09:49, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not only did you not explain the reversion, the edit itself introduces numerous violations of guidelines, as I specified above. If you keeping doing this without explanation (I remind you about the talk page, I will have no choice but to report this. --Muhandes (talk) 13:28, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
