CARE article MOS:BOLD editing leftovers

Hi. In your recent editing of the CARE article for MOS:BOLD you introduced some vandalism. I edited out the vandalism. Please review you edits next time. 83.235.57.51 (talk) 13:42, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate your concern for the article. However, may I suggest that before you accuse other of "vandalism", you review WP:VANDALISM to understand what that term means in a Wikipedia context. A typo does not qualify. --Nat Gertler (talk) 13:55, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Check the diff of my edit. You'll see that the problem was more than just a typo. 83.235.57.51 (talk) 09:43, 3 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No, it was simply that when entering he edit summary after editing the page, the edit summary field got deselcted and the main text area got selected, and while i caught the deselection, I did mot catch he selection. Thus it was a typing error ("typo") and not a "deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia" ("vandalism"). -Nat Gertler (talk) 13:30, 3 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies. 83.235.57.51 (talk) 06:11, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Parkinson's disease

I have reverted your bold edit to the article. It is a featured article and in pretty good shape, and while I might agree with many of your changes other are not so clear: You named in lead the pope, whereas it is not named anywhere else in the article (nor we have any ref saying that he enhanced visibility of PD, also you included other languages data, which I think that now with wikidata is unneeded. You also eliminated some well sourced info... and your edit summary was simply uncomprenhensible. It would be great if you could discuss your edits at talk page before making them, or that at least you separated them in several edits with real edit summaries.--Garrondo (talk) 15:59, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies; in tracking some problematic edits, I accidentally missed that I was editing an old version of the page and thus undid the edits that followed (including one that would've made my edit unneeded). I'm usually good about noticing that. Time to seek out caffeine. --Nat Gertler (talk) 16:08, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

My course assignment

Hey, thanks for your concern. I already got a grade today, a B. I showed my instructor the page you suggested and he promised to keep it in mind for future reference. I'll try and make my article better even though it was already graded, since I'm a dedicated fan of Mike Mozart. Any sggestions on how can I improve it (besides additional sources) would be appreciated. xoxo — Preceding unsigned comment added by JuliaParis (talk • contribs) 10:03, 23 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

	The Barnstar of Diligence
	For doing what was needed to rescue references on Proposition 8. Thanks. Amadscientist (talk) 23:10, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks; I'm holding off on fixing more of the dead links at the moment because the article is in heavy editing mode at the moment, thanks to today's event. Better to do it when not tripping over other editors. --Nat Gertler (talk) 00:27, 29 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Response to Peanuts

Have corrected this per your request as to the future of the Peanuts strips. Thanks. Hiphats (talk) 04:11, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Red Links

I should have explained it better on the editor's page. Most of the candidates that they attempted to link to are unknown candidates that really have no reason to have a wikipedia page and almost certainly will never have one created. They are not people considered major contenders or notable for anything significant. I will continue to remove red links for people like that. If there is a reason for them to have a page and it is reasonable that one may be made, then I will leave it up. Rxguy (talk) 17:56, 5 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop copying material from other sites

Thank you for editing the page I was working on and for including information regarding your policy on copyright. It was not my intention to copy copyrighted material from other sites. I've read through a lot of the Help pages including BLP, Notability (People), Secondary Sources, etc. and still had a hard time figuring out how to include the biographical information.

2012 Democratic National Convention

Good catch! The correct numbers seem to be 5,554 and 2,778 and I just edited the article to show those numbers. I tracked down the edit that changed 2,778 to 2,777 but the total number seems never to have been correct.Neonorange (talk) 00:59, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the inconvenience - I thought the section above my original placement looked odd for a talk page! Neonorange (talk) 02:31, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. We all err. --Nat Gertler (talk) 04:24, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Mustafa Shameel article

Hi, I'm new to making articles in Wikipedia and I mainly wanted to test the article on my grandfather (Dr. Shameel) not knowing that it cannot be deleted after testing how it works since I was planning on taking it off after seeing how things work on Wikipedia. Although, I want you to delete the article and I will make sure it will be in my own words from now on. Thank you.
