Sorry, I did not think anyone cared about [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Unobtainium&diff=prev&oldid=946943446&diffmode=source this]. I was removing that [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Unobtainium&diff=next&oldid=946943446&diffmode=source extra space] left by [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Unobtainium&diff=prev&oldid=946823495&diffmode=source this] and just cleaned up the rest. You know those double spaces are removed when the article is rendered. You could put dozens of spaces between words or sentences and it would render the same. I do not see any use for them, but if you want them there I will leave them. [[User:Richard-of-Earth|Richard-of-Earth]] ([[User talk:Richard-of-Earth|talk]]) 10:50, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for keeping me right on that! As I say, I don't have a strong feeling about this as I don't believe in Wikipedia as a concept. In spite of people like yourselves who obviously care about getting it right, it seems to me that it's basically a recipe for misinformation in any fringe cases like this.

Double spaces between sentences.

Sorry, I did not think anyone cared about this. I was removing that extra space left by this and just cleaned up the rest. You know those double spaces are removed when the article is rendered. You could put dozens of spaces between words or sentences and it would render the same. I do not see any use for them, but if you want them there I will leave them.
