Usually a receptacle wired incorrectly will only affect that one receptacle or "outlet."

Incorrectly wiring a switch however can bork a whole room. Bork is a technical term.

You took apart wires in a switch box(es) and didn't rewire it EXACTLY like it was before. Probably because you aren't an electrician and don't know what you don't know.

Either go back and check the switch boxes you opened or better yet call an electrician. This is a small job.
