Your edit to "Ford Fiesta" boggled non-latin text

Please check this difference page of your edit, you'll notice that you changed not only "liter" to "litre", but also quite a few non-latin text to question marks ("?").

You probably didn't even know you were doing that. A probable reason is that you were using an extremely out-dated browser or a browser that doesn't properly support unicode. (All major current browsers support unicode properly. Chrome, Firefox, IE, Safari, Opera)

I could have reverted only those unintended part of your edit. However, since changing "liter" to "litre" is meaningless and not worth preserving (According to WP:RETAIN, you shouldn't have done that in the first place), I reverted your whole edit.

I suggest you check all your recent edit, and revert any similar unintended change of non-latin text. You may also report this problem to the authors of the browser you were using if you can.

Hi.

I checked this, and it happened because I imported the entire page into a text editor to run a search&replace on liter -> litre. It never occured to me that it might munge non-latin text, although I was careful not to affect any links - although I don't think there were any. Good point though, and one to watch out for in the future.

However, the change from liter ->litre is valid, so I've done it again, as per wp:engvar - wp:retain doesn't apply in this case. Chaheel Riens (talk) 16:09, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

WikiProject Sinclair

I have started a proposal to group together related articles about the works of Sir Clive Sinclair. Please take a look at the proposal at Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals/Sinclair and see if you support it. --Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 11:44, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

You were broadly right, however, and I've re-added a tweaked version which fulfils all the criteria of being supported and removes any question of it being opinion, by accurately pointing to those who hold the opinion. This is bang on the money as far as WP:NPOV goes, and any removal by the IP in question is open for reversion and a vandalism tag. Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 14:33, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

Thanks comrades, but I think that a voluntary interaction ban between myself and 190 is in order as we are obviously never going to agree - and I won't lower myself to his level (apart from my tension-breaker final edit summary). As far as I'm concerned Cleo Rocos, and similar pages, have been struck from my watchlist to remove any temptation to re-engage. I wish you all the best on those articles, and I'm off now to delete all the images from Depictions of Muhammad for some comparitive light relief. Chaheel Riens (talk) 10:03, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

Ah well, he reverted, insulted and found himself on the end of a two week block this time. Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 12:28, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

Hello, Chaheel. User:Ash Loomis has been making further personal attack comments on his talk page and Talk:Punisher - wouldn't this fall in AN/I instead? Thanks, hmssolent\Let's convene 07:34, 12 February 2013 (UTC)

You hurt my feelings!
