Recent edits

Please be careful. I see that you are trying to do good, but you've made a mistake: with this edit, you turned a clean page back into a vandalized one. In general, it's pretty safe to assume that an edit made by ClueBot after a page has been vandalized is a restoration of the pre-vandalized version, although ClueBot isn't perfect. I'm just warning you because even the accidental restoration of vandalism can get you in trouble if it keeps happening. Soap ^Talk/_{Contributions} 02:09, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

More: [1] and [2]. That means you've actually added vandalism to Wikipedia three times in less than half an hour. Please be more careful before you hit the revert button. Soap ^Talk/_{Contributions} 02:15, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Likewise here [3], where the removal you undid was a removal of material that did not belong on the affected page, was of lower quality than appeared on its natural wikipedia page, and was arguably infringing copyright, and where the removal was put up for discussion on the talk page in advance. The St Patrick's Day page still needs a lot of work though, and you are welcome to join in if you would like to. DeanKeaton (talk) 03:41, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reverting

I'm not sure if good taste in conduct or appearance warrants reverting. Obviously, if there is vandalism or incorrect material, then this is a reason to do so. Checking your contributions, I can see that you have reverted articles in several subjects but give the same reason. Decorum seems too generic and not specific. Does it have to do with format, language, or grammar? I'm not sure how articles in other subjects work but in most television station articles, there is a general format and breakdown of sections. By all means, suggest changes to an article. As you edit more, you will get a feel for what does and doesn't work. Maybe you can find a subject of particular interest. Or if reverting vandalism is more important, then do so. Every person who helps to do that makes a great contribution. Strafidlo (talk) 07:44, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
