- 03:1003:10, 30 May 2023 diff hist +1 m Disappearance of Tara Calico →Other photos: Changed 'gag' to 'hoax' to prevent confusion about meaning of the word, 'gag,' which features prominently elsewhere in the article.
19 May 2023
- 19:3219:32, 19 May 2023 diff hist +15 m Autolycus →In popular culture: moved the phrase 'who has a kinder heart ...' so that it didn't read like it applied to Campbell. Made "portrayed by cult actor..." its own sentence and changed 'he' in the next one to "Autolycus."

- 19:1119:11, 8 December 2022 diff hist −55 m 1985–1986 Hormel strike deleted reference to the Arizona copper mine strike of 1983, as it took place before the Hormel strike (see introductory phrase in sentence).

15 September 2020
- 00:0200:02, 15 September 2020 diff hist −647 Outlaw motorcycle club →One percenter: This seems like a backhanded attempt to use wikipedia for advertising. Also, the quote is highly suspect: the term '1 percenter' goes back decades, but the expression 'giving [number of] fucks' didn't catch on until well after 2010.
3 September 2019
- 18:5418:54, 3 September 2019 diff hist −1 m M'Naghten rules →Historical development: took out the words "and look after" following "pay any compensation." This seemed like a fragment without a word which would make its meaning clear.

- 15:2715:27, 23 July 2019 diff hist −2 m Print on demand changed "singular" to "single" (these are not the same thing)

- 21:3921:39, 18 July 2019 diff hist −530 Pegging (sexual practice) The material I deleted was a rumor about a politician's sexual practices (it included the word "rumored"). The provided link was to an op-ed that did not substantiate (or even mention) the rumor.

21 June 2019
- 18:3618:36, 21 June 2019 diff hist −128 Jessie Knight (tattoo artist) →Legacy: Changed language to indicate the exhibition was in the past (2018). Deleted the reference to a curator's talk, as it too has passed, and didn't seem to be of interest to a broad audience.

2 September 2018
- 06:1806:18, 2 September 2018 diff hist +137 John Haigh →In popular culture: Added a stage play about Haigh to the "in popular culture" section. It is written by an established playwright and television writer, which is why I consider it sufficiently high-profile.
