Pounce (calligraphy)

Go see in the edit history what I did: I had no qualms about removing that entire paragraph. If you're wondering about "original research", see WP:OR. Next step, type in "Pounce" in Google and select "Books", that will give you more better sources--I'm sure they're there. Oshwah, look, a new editor! Tell em how much fun you have reverting vandalism. ;-) Dr Aaij (talk) 21:05, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

User:Oshwah I'm trying to show these students all the exciting things one can do on Wikipedia--vandalism fighting is one of them. We haven't talked about that in class yet, but we will--after all, what their teachers always told them is "don't use Wikipedia because it's so easily vandalized", when there's editors like you and so many others who work so hard on keeping the place clean. Thanks, Dr Aaij (talk) 15:10, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

Dr Aaij - Ah, got'cha! I was just confused by the message you left and didn't know the context. :-) I appreciate the kind words - thank you! Tell your class that I said "hello", and let them know that they're welcome to message me at any time by clicking here should they run into any questions or need help with anything. Happy editing! ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 15:15, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

I appreciate it, User:Oshwah. Thanks, and thanks also for that other edit. Dr Aaij (talk) 21:59, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

Dr Aaij - You bet! :-) ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 22:25, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
