28 August 2023

• 06:5306:53, 28 August 2023 diff hist +859 Ennomos alniaria Added a sentence with citation about *E. alniaria* as an introduced species in British Columbia. Also added an external link to BugGuide accordingly, as it might contain additional North America–specific information about the moth in the future (and already has a page on it, which cites the same paper I've cited here)

18 August 2023

• 08:1308:13, 18 August 2023 diff hist +1 m Microctenucha Corrected typo of genus name in the lede (was missing the second 'c')

25 June 2023

• 22:4022:40, 25 June 2023 diff hist +232 m Posad people Added "Clarify" tag after "black people", as this is typically a racial descriptor in English, rather than whatever this article seems like it's actually trying to refer to Tag: Reverted

23 June 2023

• 22:3922:39, 23 June 2023 diff hist +65 Annika Wells →Songwriting discography: Fixed wiki links where the entire artist line of Illenium collaborations (rather than just Illenium's name) was linked to the Illenium wiki page. Fixed link for Tritonal to refer to the DJ duo and not the substance. Added links for Said the Sky, Grey, and Arty

5 June 2023

• 11:0711:07, 5 June 2023 diff hist +111 Indeterminacy of translation Added footnote to "Arunta", clarifying that this is not referring to the real-life Arrernte language (whose name was historically sometimes written the same way)

22 May 2023

• 10:5310:53, 22 May 2023 diff hist +1 Procellaris grotis noctuid moth Corrected "Erebidae" to "Noctuidae" in the lede current
• 10:4510:45, 22 May 2023 diff hist +155 m Rocky Mountain locust →See also: Added brief explanations to the Mormon cricket and passenger pigeon links

19 May 2023

• 21:1121:11, 19 May 2023 diff hist +55 Central Park (Burnaby) Removed and reworded several sentences that were written like a tourist brochure. Removed first few sentences of the "Invasive animal species" section, which simply gave a detailed explanation of what an invasive species is in general (not specific to Central Park). Added citation for Korean War Memorial and outdoor pool
• 20:3320:33, 19 May 2023 diff hist +130 North Burnaby Removed and rewrote numerous parts of this article that were written like a travel brochure instead of an encyclopaedic entry. Also added various cleanup tags (citation needed, by whom, etc) and hyperlinks to other Wikipedia articles where appropriate
• 20:1620:16, 19 May 2023 diff hist −12 m UniverCity Removed "sustainable" from the first line to reduce repetition, as this word is already used in each of the next sentences

13 May 2023

• 23:4923:49, 13 May 2023 diff hist 0 m Feralia comstocki Corrected "east (across the southern boreal forest...)" to "west", since Vancouver Island is west of the Maritime provinces current
• 23:2823:28, 13 May 2023 diff hist 0 m Soarele și luna Corrected IPA, which had an uppercase L instead of a lowercase l (IPA never uses uppercase)

11 May 2023

• 01:5301:53, 11 May 2023 diff hist +53 m Lake Rukwa →Hydrology: Second paragraph: added hyperlinks for articles on the two fish species as well as on heavy metals, fixed capitalization for individual elements, slightly changed wording

9 May 2023

• 09:5109:51, 9 May 2023 diff hist +92 m Trochus Added copy-edit inline tag in lede

26 April 2023

• 09:5309:53, 26 April 2023 diff hist −10 I Won't Let You Walk Away Fixed Mako singles chronology: previously showed a song by an entirely different artist with the same name ("Inner Revolution" is not by this Mako, but by a different one) under prev_title, and also previously had the wrong year (2016) for next_year

24 April 2023

• 21:4221:42, 24 April 2023 diff hist −147 List of domesticated animals →Tame and partially domesticated animals: Removed the citation from the "Florida manatee" row, since it was a joke article from the website of a nonexistent joke university ("University of Antarctica")

16 April 2023

• 12:2812:28, 16 April 2023 diff hist +11 m Insect physiology →Muscular system: Cleaned up first sentence

7 April 2023

• 05:3205:32, 7 April 2023 diff hist +186 Triphosa Corrected "gender of these butterflies" to "this genus of moth" (seemingly a translation issue), and added clarification tag at the end of the first paragraph of the lede current

3 April 2023

• 10:5910:59, 3 April 2023 diff hist −18 m Ermine moth Cleaned up multiple places where links were added before the plural suffix. Also removed completely subjective statement about the beauty of these moths
• 10:5010:50, 3 April 2023 diff hist +5 m Western conifer seed bug Removed "and Redcar" from the part of the lede listing the expanded range within North America, since Redcar is in Europe (and if there is a Redcar in North America, it is most definitely not on the level of provinces and states of Canada and the US respectively). Also added links to the first mentions of specific places, other than the rather long list of provinces and states

21 March 2023

• 02:1402:14, 21 March 2023 diff hist 0 m Euphorbiaceae Corrected positioning of the IPA primary stress mark, moving it to the left side of the /f/ in accordance with the maximal onset principle

14 March 2023

• 06:5306:53, 14 March 2023 diff hist +19 m Chief Dawid Stuurman International Airport Added link to first mention of Chief Dawid Stuurman in the body, so people can easily read about the airport's namesake as well

22 February 2023

• 09:1409:14, 22 February 2023 diff hist +4 m Morning in a Pine Forest Added link on "Lake Seliger", to help people place the painting geographically

20 February 2023

• 10:5110:51, 20 February 2023 diff hist −3 m Noctuidae →Ecology: Replaced "gender" with "sex" since this is more appropriate for non-human animals, with gender being a human-specific social term rather than a cross-species biological term

16 February 2023

• 03:5403:54, 16 February 2023 diff hist +2 m Mehmet Oz Changed the note about the diacritic to direct to the general page Two dots (diacritic) instead of Umlaut (diacritic). While this diacritic is commonly referred to as an "umlaut" in English – and for this reason the displayed text has been left unchanged – linguistically the function of ö in Turkish is not consistent with "umlaut" in the strict sense (which is specific to a type of vowel alternation), hence why I felt it necessary to change the redirect

21 January 2023

• 02:0002:00, 21 January 2023 diff hist +1 m Helsingør →History: Fixed spelling of Gandalf Alfgeirsson so that it can link to the correct page instead of being red

6 January 2023

• 22:1822:18, 6 January 2023 diff hist +16 m Calyptra canadensis Fixed wrong link for "Calyptra", which, prior to this edit, led to a botany page rather than a moth genus page

1 December 2022

• 09:1009:10, 1 December 2022 diff hist +1 Slovak orthography Fixed apparent IPA typo in Notes column for ⟨n⟩, where the text originally said "alveolo-palatal nasal" followed by the alveolar nasal symbol [n] instead of the [ɲ] that matches the description. Symbol has been changed accordingly with text remaining intact Tag: Visual edit: Switched

28 November 2022

• 04:4804:48, 28 November 2022 diff hist +2 m List of current NHL captains and alternate captains →Alternate captains: Replaced mistaken hyphen between year numbers from previous edit (in Scott Laughton's row) with correct en-dash
• 04:4604:46, 28 November 2022 diff hist +642 List of current NHL captains and alternate captains →Alternate captains: Added missing season column entry for Scott Laughton (Philadelphia Flyers); fixed daggers/colours for Bruins and Jets

• 00:5500:55, 26 November 2022 diff hist −1,190 Udmurtia →Name: Removed information from the second paragraph that was either uncited, unambiguously false (e.g. translating Proto-Mongolic *mori as "Slavic for sea" instead of the actual gloss "horse", in a list of proposed cognates that are all glossed as "horse"), irrelevant, or representative of fringe theories (the Mikhailova source being part of the Nostratic hypothesis, which is not widely-accepted among historical linguists and thus does not merit inclusion outside of a linguistics article)

22 April 2022

• 22:0222:02, 22 April 2022 diff hist +4 m Mental lexicon →Syntactic considerations: Added link to article on fMRI
• 22:0022:00, 22 April 2022 diff hist −5 Mental lexicon Separated "Syntactic considerations" into its own top-level heading due to size + changed vague "scientists" in main body to say "neurologists and neurolinguists"
• 21:5621:56, 22 April 2022 diff hist +157 Mental lexicon →Syntactic information: Added sentence about the "emergentist" position regarding syntactic categories
• 21:4921:49, 22 April 2022 diff hist +122 m Mental lexicon →Syntactic information: Fixed missing title in citation of Vigliocco et al. 2011
• 21:1421:14, 22 April 2022 diff hist +894 Mental lexicon →Syntactic information: Added two sources relating to separate storage of nouns and verbs, presenting two opposing arguments, and removed a previously-included paper whose methodology was less sound than these two new sources and which shared an author with one of them
• 05:5705:57, 22 April 2022 diff hist −280 Mental lexicon Cleaned up the two Elman references to reduce redundancy (two near-identical articles, but the more recent one has a direct quote, albeit mentioned in an unrelated paragraph prior to this edit which moved the quote to adjoin the rest of the Elman content). Consolidated all Elman references to Elman 2011, and removed Elman 2009 entirely.
• 05:1605:16, 22 April 2022 diff hist −4 m Mental lexicon →The declarative/procedural model: Fixed second reference to named footnote
• 05:1505:15, 22 April 2022 diff hist −231 Mental lexicon →The declarative/procedural model: Removed redundant source from the same author (Ullman) — since the entire first paragraph could be sourced from either paper by the same author, and the surface-level most significant concepts are the same, having the paragraph supported by these two citations made little difference since they do not offer any different perspectives. The more recent one was kept, and cited twice.
