Early in the third quarter, the Jazz led 75-50, but a third quarter explosion by Mann powered the Clippers' comeback and victory. Mann finished with a career-high 39 points on 15 of 21 shooting, including 7 of 10 from three-point range.

Jesus. My source is I watched the whole game. This is a reasonable edit to make and obviously true. What's stupid is that I wasn't allowed to make the edit because I'm not an "established editor" and that's bullshit. That's why I had to make a dumb edit request instead of just simply editing the page. And then it gets denied?? Are you serious? It's not like I put "Terance Mann is the current owner of the Utah Jazz" like those other edits that were allowed to happen. My edit provides more detail, background info and impact, and overall, would make the wiki page more helpful, interesting, and useful. So go ahead and allow the edit. The only reason not to is to gatekeep wikipedia from the common people like me because established users are control freaks who won't let anybody else edit their pages. Is wikipedia for everyone? Or only for the select few?
