Changed "user" to "editor"[edit]

Hello, fellow editors ... I have changed

This user is not an administrator and does not wish to be one.

to

This editor is not an administrator and does not wish to be one.

If you object to the change, please comment here before you unilaterally revert it ... Happy Editing! — 72.75.110.142 (talk) _{14:32, 20 March 2008 (UTC)}[reply]

How come? Ryan4314 (talk) 18:35, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, to my way of thinking, "editor" implies an active contributor, whereas "user" implies one who does not contribute very frequently, or at all ... OTOH, the terms are synonymous to Most People, users and editors alike, and I'm willing to go along with whatever Consensus holds sway ... BTW, I changed a few templates during that same session, so check my edit history if you disagree and plan to revert. :-) Happy Editing! — 72.75.110.142 (talk) _{21:12, 20 March 2008 (UTC)}[reply]

Anomie's revert[edit]

Okay. I was half-expecting my edit to be reverted. Just to let you know, I've now placed my version in my user space. ~ Keiji (iNVERTED) (Talk) 05:00, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nice work, although I gotta say I prefer the original more. Ryan4314 (talk) 11:09, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
