Your edit to Ryan Adams

Your recent edit to Ryan Adams (diff) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Wikipedia articles. If the bot reverted a legitimate edit, please accept my humble creator's apologies – if you bring it to the attention of the bot's owner, we may be able to improve its behavior.

It happens on occasion... the bot isn't perfect but you should see the amount of crap it picks up every day... false positives like yours are a tiny tiny fraction of the edits it makes.... it is close to 98% now, it really is :) -- Tawker 05:02, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

Michigan Radio information

With so many different articles currently listing Michigan radio station information, I have created a handy template so editors can make changes across all entries for consistency:

This list or template is one of a group on Michigan Radio. When adding a station to this page, please be sure to add/update the following: Each of these Lists: Main List, By Call Letters, By City, By Frequency, By Market Any of these applicable Templates: Ann Arbor, Battle Creek, Detroit, Flint, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Lansing-East Lansing, Marquette, Muskegon, Saginaw-Bay City-Midland, Sault Ste. Marie, Traverse City-Petoskey Also, remember that each station is to be included only one of these Categories: Michigan Radio, Detroit Radio

I've got most of the articles on watch, so that when changes are made (such as the recent change involving WLKB and WTRK that you noted), I can go ahead and do the cleanup work. Alternatively, if you don't want to go through the hassle -- drop me a note on my talk page and I'll do the grunt work. Thanks! JPG-GR 07:21, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism?

Please do not refer to my legitimate right to edit articles as "vandalism". I suggest you familiarise yourself with Wikipedia rules and terminology before you make unfounded accusations. WWGB 05:56, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

I suggest you learn what "notable" means before you go around starting trouble.RobDe68 06:03, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I am familiar with it. It's right here: Wikipedia:Notability (people). Read it and tell me how Ms Grant is notable. And please refrain from insinuations about "starting trouble". WWGB 06:08, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

I do appologize for calling you a vandal though. Although I don't know how I would have fit "reverting good-faith effort that was misguided or ill-considered" into the edit summary. They only give you so many characters. Seriously though, I can't believe I'm actually having trouble convincing somebody that a person who has been talked about in the national media for weeks is notable. It blows my mind. I guess that's why I assumed you were just revertiung to cause trouble. You really can't tell this person is notable? It's right there in the first section of the page you keep pointing me to. Read it again, slowly if needed.RobDe68 06:34, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

One last thing, if you feel so strongly in your convictions about notability. Then revert the page back.....but before you do, since you are so right about this, then remove JonBenet Ramsey from this page first. Since, according to you, "murders happen everyday", then JonBenet really doesn't belong on that page and shouldn't have an article either for that matter. After that you can get busy deleting the Chandra Levy and Lacy Peterson articles as well. I'll get busy compiling a list a murder victim articles for you to delete. Together we can rid Wikipedia of the scourge that is "non-notability".RobDe68 06:50, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
