Hello MaudB,
I'm writing concerning your many edits to the Sissyfight 2000 page on June 6, 2006. While I appreciate the contributions you've made, you've also deleted quite a bit of information without explaining why. The Sissyfight entry in Wikipedia has often been in danger of being deleted in the past couple years; just a few months ago, someone placed a notice on the page demanding we state its significance as a game or website. Thus, I included its Webby Nomination and its importance among academics and game developers (which you've now removed).
Also, you've incorporated some unorthdox wiki style into the page (the one that bugs the most is the newly-hyperlinked "Game Mechanics" header, but there are many others). Many of your changes will unfortunately flag an alert with some wiki editors, and I'm afraid they may come not only to clean out a bunch of our work, but also question the page's significance again.
I will respect many of your changes, but I will also restore much of the information you deleted. Unfortunately, I don't the time to restore that information now, but I wanted to give you a heads up.
Before you make any drastic changes again, please make sure to indicate you will be doing so on the Sissyfight entry's Talk page. At least that way, we can discuss whatever changes you think will be most relevant and constructive.
