Why "erase"?

[edit]

On 12 February 2009, I erased "just" from the lead section of the bio, but it was reverted by Dweller.[1] I think saying "He took 35 wickets in just 13 first-class matches" carries the implication that taking 35 wickets in 13 first-class matches is an exceptional performance. Taking 35 wickets in 13 first-class matches is a good performance, but it is not an exceptional performance. That's why I erased "just" from the lead section of the bio.

Makes sense to me. I'll adjust. --Dweller (talk) 13:48, 13 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
