Hi SkyWolf369, Good day and thank you for interested in being a trainer at CVUA.I am one of the CUVA trainer in English Wikipedia and I have reverted your edit on that page for the reason that you have only 369 total main space edits, which does not demonstrate you have enough edits and vandalism edits to understand the dept. and breath of counter vandalism let alone to be a CVUA trainer. All of the CVUA trainers have gone through the CVUA program under another experienced CUVA trainer. I became a trainer after I have more than 30K main space edits and have about 15K counter vandalism edits after I have graduated from CVUA program when I have about 4K total main space edits. To be qualify for a participant in CVUA, the editor needs to have at least 200 main space edits. I suggest if you are interested in counter vandalism, pls participate in the CUVA program yourself first (it takes about 2-3 months) and after your CVUA graduation and accumulate another 5K counter vandalism edits prior to became a trainer for you would have some basic understanding what counter vandalism work entails. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 22:38, 1 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello -- Luh Majo ( talk) 11:01, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
Okay so, there was initially no decimal in the area section (said it was 41,634 km2 before), but in October 27th of 2022, the unthinkable happened. A decimal appeared (now it says 41,634.16 km2). The edit was made by that one Argentinian Wikipedia user by the name of Locked Empire. I don't know why he edited it or how, but i know that Wikipedia traditions doesn't allow to change the area section to something unsourced, especially when adding a decimal. So, the decimal that has been added is downright pointless, and i can't see a source of this change at all. Can you revert this edit and send a message to him in the Locked Empire talk page that he made an unsourced change? Thank you. 2601:280:4F81:4490:D9E8:37CF:D62:BC68 ( talk) 00:23, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
