Kudos deleting some of the only sourced content in the article, don't do it again.Zaki Naggar (talk) 23:39, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi! It looks like you are fairly new to editing Wikipedia, so -- welcome! I removed that content because, while sourced, it was not particularly notable; for example, the cited source for the coconut/cranberry/cardamom variation makes it pretty clear that it was the result of pure creativity by the author of the recipe, as opposed to something that is a common, traditional, or even emerging variation. It seems like your later edits acknowledged this by removing that one, so I don't think we really disagree. That said, you may want to take a look at the policies for reliable sources, due and undue weight, and original research as you move forward. I don't necessarily think your edit directly violated these rules, but these are the sorts of issues I had in mind when I removed it.
 * (Also, if I may make another suggestion, you may want to consider how you interact with people on here -- sarcastic "Kudos" followed by "don't do it again" comes across as pretty aggressive, as did your edit summary of "stop deleting sourced content" when it was only a one-time deletion as opposed to someone repeatedly cutting stuff from a page. And, as the links above make clear, just because content can be sourced does not mean it belongs on Wikipedia.)
 * Anyway, like I said, I think your edits ended up in a good place, so I don't plan to make any further changes on that front. Welcome, again, and happy editing! --EightYearBreak (talk) 16:04, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

SEC
Surely you've noticed that football takes up an unusual and undue amount of space. A list of rivalries is hardly very relevant for an article on the conference; there is already way too much stuff that is relevant to individual schools and football programs but not to the general article. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 21:14, 15 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Drmies, I understand your position but respectfully disagree. To seek a consensus position from other editors, I am going to raise these issues at the article's talk page. Thanks. --EightYearBreak (talk) 14:52, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

Montlake page editor SounderBruce
I’m not sure how this works, but could you please get the user SounderBruce to top messing with the Montlake (seattle) page. He has now undone your last edits as well, after doing the same thing to me and some Ip user. Thanks Max3218 (talk) 03:38, 4 August 2020 (UTC)


 * I've joined the discussion on the article Talk page. For what it's worth, I don't think I can get anybody to stop doing anything--I don't know SounderBruce, and I'm just a regular editor, not an admin or anything. I do think we all would be better served to avoid further edit-warring and channel that energy and effort into finding a more recent yet reliable source, if one exists. --EightYearBreak (talk) 15:07, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
