Reverting edits[edit]
First, I see that you are a newly registered editor from Tempe, so from your neighbor in west Chandler, I extend to you a warm welcome to Wikipedia.
Since you are a newcomer, I hope you will allow me to give you some tips on editing in Wikipedia. Please do not revert edits without explanation, as you did with KNXV-TV. The edit summary provides ample room for explanations, but if you need to say more, you may avail yourself of the article's talk page. If you do not like changes made to articles, you need to explain why. Understand that you do not own the articles; they will be edited by others, and there is nothing you can do about that. Simply not liking the edits are insufficient reason for reverting. The changes I had made were properly and reliably sourced. Information was removed from the article that was not germane to the topic. Each article must present a coherent discussion of its topic; it is not a repository for indiscriminate facts, especially about other topics - in this case, about stations other than KNXV. If you believe that my edits were inappropriate, talk to me about it. I'll be more than happy to explain.
Before you really get going with editing, I encourage you to review the links that Wperdue left you. You will find them quite valuable and make your time here much more enjoyable.
Again, welcome. I hope you will find Wikipedia a rewarding experience, although I do caution that it can be addictive if you let it. dhett (talk • contribs) 06:43, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- Fair enough. However, you only needed to replace the sentence you wished to improve, rather than a wholesale revert of the article. Apparently, you know how to do that now, as that is what your last change does. Unfortunately, now it sounds like KNXV is already broadcasting in digital on channel 15. :-)
- Whether or not I agree with your change, I commend you for the description of it in the edit summary - that's exactly how you should do it. Finally, a reminder: please remember to sign posts to talk pages - not articles, just talk pages - by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. dhett (talk • contribs) 15:28, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
June 2009[edit]
Per ESPN, the deal is still awaiting league approval as prominently stated in the title. Per WP:CRYSTAL, we don't overhaul articles for roster changes, when a transaction has yet to be completed. Thanks. --Madchester (talk) 18:19, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
