Please take more care

I don't know why you decided to try to format the lead section of Adelheid Herrmann as a heading, but it was plain wrong. Please take the trouble to look at other articles and learn more about Wikipedia before making such unhelpful edits. It's perhaps your teacher's fault more than yours, but you can understand why experienced editors sometimes become unhappy about our precious, amazing, encyclopedia being used as a school laboratory or playground.

I have undone your edit. (I then realised there was an addition to the article too - I undid my undoing of the edit, removing the "heading" formatting. And then did a lot more work on the article to clean it up after your addition.)

Good luck with your course, and welcome to Wikipedia, but please edit more carefully. PamD 16:00, 12 February 2025 (UTC)

There were several other problems about your edit - if you look at the edit summaries for the changes I've made, step by step, I hope I've clarified at each stage. Also please note that we don't use someone's given name, but only refer to them by family name (except where we have just mentioned other family members of the same surname, or similar situation). And you didn't end your sentence with a full stop. PamD 16:50, 12 February 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Opolito. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Zipper seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.
