Editing old messages on Support

Please stop editing other people's old messages on Support. This includes adding links to Portals. It's confusing and not helpful.

I think it is useful to follow the topic when these basic links were missing (notably for looking up language codes). It helps finding the response and they are not "old" as they were not answered or not completely, still waiting for a response or action. I did not modify any term. And it helps looking up for past talks as well (notably because language names alone are frequently ambiguous and need precision to make sure we talk about the same thing). It was not supposed to hurt anyone (and I don't think it has disturbed anyone, except possibly you if you track some threads that reappear later.

It's OK to fix language codes on portals.

Don't edit the text of what other people wrote in conversations without a good reason. Missing language codes or missing links to portals is NOT a good reason. It is disruptive.

I am asking you again, for the last time: stop editing old messages on Support. This is useless and disruptive. Your edits here are NOT helpful in any way. A wrong link or a wrong template parameter in a talk page message from 2010 can stay wrong. Reading that message only to realize that it was posted in 2010 wastes my time. Please don't bother explaining it. Just stop.
