More about your opinion about non constructive

You are quick to pull the trigger, I just wrote what you reverted. You might want to sit on something for a bit before making assumptions. That lead was way too long, and not about Dumas himself. The para I took out is repeated word for word immediately following in Early Life, where it belongs. You should "improve, not revert". Knee Jerk Reverting is what starts edit wars. 184.69.174.194 (talk) 02:38, 8 March 2019 (UTC) Stop watching that page and let the WIKI process unfold as it should. Your words are not the final say.

You are right. I mistakenly believed that it was vandalism. I shouldn't have reverted your edit. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia! CalOtter (talk) 03:02, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
Thankyou. I'm impressed. I have made mistakes too in my life. cheers Ben 184.69.174.194 (talk) 03:41, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

Rollback granted

 

Hi CalOtter. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war.
  • If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
  • Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! ~ Amory (utc) 01:41, 20 March 2019 (UTC)

From Fuddle Duddle

re. "Hello, I'm CalOtter. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Fuddle duddle, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so!" This is my personal experience; i owned the t-shirt, as did a couple friends, and i remember a poster as well. What i cannot remember is the artist- it might have been an Aislin editorial, but that might have been a bit risque for the Montreal Gazette at the time. But i do not think there IS any aporpriate citation..... but that does not make it false information, nor does it necessarily mean it should be removed altogether. However, i'm just a Goblim, you are one of the Overseers of Wikipedia, what do i know. Thanks for messaging me in any event. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.90.99.60 (talk) 01:52, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
