• Please use more meaningful edit summaries. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:10, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

  @EugeneZelenko: What would you suggest? If referring to the two manually linked edits, they don't reflect real summaries as those were proofs of concept. --TheSandDoctor (talk) 15:30, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

  Please make test run with real edit summaries. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:44, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
