Grammar

From some of the erroneous grammatical "corrections" that you have done -- I assume in WP:GOODFAITH -- I'd infer that you somehow confuse the third person "s" with a mark of plural. Please be more careful with that. — Gamall Wednesday Ida (t · c) 09:03, 7 August 2017 (UTC)

Much later in the day, I think I finally see what was bugging you. It's not the "s", but the "rather than" construction, and it's a fully legitimate concern. Unwarranted in that case, but legitimate. My apologies. The first edit you proposed was very odd-sounding, so I didn't give much thought to your second one. Anyway, the answer to your concern is that, in the sentence, "rather than" is a preposition, and the second clause can be a bare infinitive (in this case) or a gerund. Although no correction was needed, I have reinstated your second version, which will avoid similar doubts from other readers. — Gamall Wednesday Ida (t · c) 15:58, 7 August 2017 (UTC)

September 2019

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at I Feel Bad. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. — YoungForever^(talk) 15:57, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
