SORRY ABOUT THAT! PLEASE FORGIVE MY NEWBIE-NESS! I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT WAS A DISCUSSION POST I WAS EDITING. SO, I APOLOGIZE TO THE ORIGINAL POSTERS, AND TO THE GROUP. I DIDN'T MEAN TO EDIT A CONVERSATION. THANKS FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING, AND I HOPE MY FUTURE CONTRIBUTIONS WILL BE SEEN AS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE PROJECT. SINCERELY, EVERGLADEPHISH11

Hello. I've pasted a welcome statement below because it has some useful links. I agree with the overall sentiment within it, I'm just explaining here why it sounds a little generic! If I just try to give you all the links here, I know I'll miss something useful :)

Anyway, I notice you edited some comments on talk:Baseball. The problem with that is that editing people's comments means that people are no longer reading what was actually said. It's tricky, because you're very encouraged to edit any grammar and spelling mistakes, as well as other mistakes, on just about any other page, but talk pages are different. It can be seen as quite rude, and I know you didn't mean that! So, welcome! I hope to see more good edits from you, just bear in mind that editing other people's comments in talk pages is something to avoid :D

Welcome!
