  Hello, and thank you very much for your recent contributions to Financial crisis of 2007–2008. I removed them, but please don't take that as a criticism. It's just that (1) the first one was the addition of information to the lead section which was a level detail inappropriate to that place in the article, and (2) the second one was in the Summary section, which is also intended to be brief. I think the thing to do is put those contributions in the Causes section. Because I am not sure where, I have left it to you to decide. So, please go ahead and re-inert in what you think is the right places in Causes. Best wishes, Wildfowl (talk) 22:07, 21 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
