Hi 11Jorn, hope your classes went well. Checking in to request your cooperation. Can you share a bit why you deleted the entire section added on the transition between Don't Hurt Yourself and Sorry. I'm a new editor but I am also a scholar. Still learning the norms but would love to know what it was that caused you to delete. What were your considerations and can you work with me on this one? sheridanford (talk) 21:58, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
