Regarding your edits to High-rise syndrome

Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to High-rise syndrome. Readers looking for serious articles will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write (almost) whatever you want. —BMRR (talk) 22:04, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
