If a census figure is given for a parish or a ward, please do not change it to say it is the population of a village, as you did in [[Old Whittington]] and in [[Brimington]]: the two are not always the same. It would be more useful to spend your time updating the population source as both these had dead links to the old census data: I have updated them to link to NOMIS, as well as correcting your inaccurate changes.

== More carelessness ==
 
Thank you for creating [[St Matthew's Church, Walsall]] (note new title), but please take more care.
 
*It has an apostrophe. Yes, it is the church of St Matthew. There are not multiple saints Matthew. The church website and all the sources use an apostrophe (OK, not in the logo on the church home page at https://www.stmatthewswalsall.co.uk/, but it does then say "Welcome to St. Matthew's Walsall").
 
*It is grade II* listed, not grade II. That's quite a difference - there are vast numbers of grade II buildings, but II* is a much more prestigious listing. You called it grade II in both the text and the infobox.
 
*You used some odd hyphens in "Grade-II" and "Built-in" (like a wardrobe?).
 
*I don't think this counts as a church completed in 1220: it was entirely rebuilt in 1820-1821, and incorporates some remnants of the earlier church on the site.
 
So please take more care when contributing to this encyclopedia. Some of your information was just plain wrong (the grade II), some was plain ungrammatical (the lost apostrophe).
 
You complain about editors complaining about your edits: the answer is to take more care and just get things right. Please. I've fixed what I can in this case. There is also a weird thing about sorting order for churches: in some categories they are sorted by placename: I've added sort keys which I think will match the existing order within those categories, though I agree with you that the sort key should be the article title for general use.)
