You didn't have any edit summary to go along with the large removal, it was tagged by the vandalbots and seeing a lot of blanking with what looks to be on topic without an edit summary usually gets reverted. Feel free to remove the content, look at it I think your POV concerns are valid, it was the lack of an edit summary that caused the revert -- Tawker 21:41, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Alas...

Baylinkbot is a Fig Newton of my imagination. I plugged the pointer in myself; MW isn't especially conducive to threaded conversations on Talk pages. :-) --Baylink 23:50, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Primary Writer of the Declaration

I'm with you. Jefferson was the drafter or primary writer of the Declaration. He didn't author the entire thing. He wasn't even happy with the final draft and he went to great lengths to make sure that people knew it how much it differed from his words: http://libertyonline.hypermall.com/Jefferson/Autobiography.html#declaration. --Carla Pehlke 01:38, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re-wrote the article on liberty

I re-wrote Wikipedia's article on liberty. Looking through the members of the Philosophy WikiProject, you seemed educated enough, so I thought I'd have you take a look at it. The article was in horrible condition before, it was poorly structured, some facts were wrong, and it had been turned into more of a debate over Libertarianism Vs. Marxism than an article about liberty. Take a look at my revision and make a comment in the talk page, if you don't mind. Robocracy 06:35, 12 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Variance

Hi, I'm a statistics teacher and I added a lot of explanations on the variance page. You were one of the many who commented that the page was too technical (I agree). I would appreciate your comments on the discussion page. JulesEllis 20:56, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Most recent common ancestor

Thank you very much for bringing attention to the unfounded sentence in most recent common ancestor. You are right. I've just checked the referenced article. I am turning this opportunity into a full clean-up of the said article. Thanks. Fred Hsu (talk) 01:09, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Definitions of dress codes

You asked (in 2018, sorry) for a citation for what I wrote about dress codes. I've added it to the article. It was https://askandyaboutclothes.com/cracking-the-dress-code/
