Strange edit to Talk:OSI model

edit

Hi, why would you do this? I don't know what you tried to do there but it certainly removed my contribution and added some under user names other than your own. Both are not acceptable. Can you explain? --EnOreg (talk) 17:38, 15 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi EnOreg, thank you for your question. I investigated the problem and found the cause. The main reason is that I am not familiar with wikipedia's email-notifications yet, since I only activated them about one or two weeks ago. The problem is, I followed the link of the edit which was mentioned inside the email, and directly edited that old version, but was unaware that it was an old version. Here is what I did from my point of view when I made the edit:
  • I received an email that stated that "the Wikipedia page "Talk:OSI model" has been changed on 12 July 2012 by anonymous user 198.174.192.180, with the edit summary: -" (I read the email on 15 July)
  • I clicked on the first link to see the change and read the request (to remove physical devices from the sidebar)
  • I commented the request and added the IP, as I thought it was an unsigned edit (I somehow didn't see that KMurphy111 had already placed his name at the beginning of the request, which was due to the fact that the email also stated it was an anonymous edit)

I didn't notice that I edited an old version. This was stupid. I'm sorry for the trouble and thank you for pointing that out to me. I have to check all other pages which I possibly damaged in the same way now. And I shall read my emails more carefully now. --GGShinobi (talk) 18:36, 15 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Fair enough. Thanks for the explanation. Cheers, --EnOreg (talk) 20:30, 15 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Oolite version redaction

edit

I've redacted the version in the info box back to v1.76.1 as that is the current stable version. There is further information that I have placed on the Oolite page, in the history section, about newer versions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ricardo1702 (talkcontribs) 00:45, 3 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Whoops, thanks! Good work! Didn't notice! My mistake! :-) --GGShinobi (talk) 15:31, 3 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
