[edit] Tangerine (novel) - why I reverted it
Somehow, in trying to update the article, you pasted in a whole bunch of garbage, so it ended up looking like this. You had Wikipedia messages pasted all over the place like "Your continued donations keep Wikipedia running!" and "Symbols: ~ | ¡ ¿ † ‡ ↔ ↑ ↓ • # ¹ ² ³ ½ ⅓ ⅔ ¼ ¾ ⅛ ⅜ ⅝ ⅞ ‘ “ ’ ” ¢ $ € £ ¥ Characters: Á á Ć ć É é Í í Ĺ ĺ Ń ń Ó ó Ŕ ŕ Ś ś Ú ú Ý ý Ź ź À à È è Ì ì Ò ò Ù ù Â â Ĉ ĉ Ê ê Ĝ ĝ Ĥ ĥ Î î Ĵ ĵ Ô ô Ŝ ŝ Û û Ŵ ŵ Ŷ ŷ Ä ä Ë ë Ï ï Ö ö Ü ü Ÿ ÿ ß Ã ã Ẽ ẽ Ĩ ĩ Ñ ñ Õ õ Ũ ũ Ỹ ỹ Ç ç Ģ ģ Ķ ķ Ļ ļ Ņ ņ Ŗ ŗ".
Looks like you had selected a whole bunch of text from a Wikipedia page and then pasted it in several times. You really need to look at the page after you make an edit. Fan-1967 14:44, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
- First of all, you do not need to type your user name to sign a message. On talk pages and in discussions, please sign your posts by typing four tilde's (~~~~) at the end of your entry. It will translate to your user name with the date and time.
- Secondly, there are serious problems with your latest version. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and should have strictly factual information, from a Neutral Point of view. Sentences like "This review is about a book called Tangerine. If you want to read a good book, I recommend you read Tangerine." are totally inappropriate. We want a factual article about the book, not a review with personal opinion. Who wrote it, when was it published, what's it about? What you think of it doesn't belong.

- I know that now. However, I couldn't tell until I looked at the diff. Some bots might also get confused. Will (Talk - contribs) 21:32, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
