I am aware of the need of sources having written to national version of wikipedia. I was going to add them because it is far more easier to write the text straightforward. This far the work has twice been an empty excercise thanks to interference which has caused conflict upon saving the article. There should be an automatic but removable flag when someone is editing to avoid situations like this. Also critics and suggestions should be given after ensuring the editing has been done by the current editor Noseball (talk) 17:26, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi Noseball. I'm sorry if I disrupted your work. However, when an editor does not state in any way that they are still going to work on the article, other editors will assume they are done. This is especially true with new editors, which, I'm afraid, have a tendency to make one or two edits and leave. Watching about 10,000 articles I am forced to revert when I see an article in a state that cannot stand. Here are some suggestions on how to avoid this in the future
 * Add either inuse or underconstruction at the top of the page. This tells other editors that you are not done. Most users will respect this and stay out.
 * Even better, if you have a major edit in mind, use you own userspace for editing and only move the text to the main space only when it is ready. To do this create User:Noseball/Hep Stars, copy the current text to it, and work there. When you think it is ready, copy the text back. This is of course not mandatory, but that's the way I usually do it. You can see for example User:Muhandes/LoI which is an article I work on from time to time which is going to be a major edit of List of lighthouses in Israel. On the other hand, on List of universities in India we chose to use the other method.
 * Finally, I would like to ask you to add page numbers to the sources you provided. Naming the book is not enough for verifications. Best regards, and I hope you enjoy editing here and choose to stay – you are doing a good job, which I assure you is appreciated. --Muhandes (talk) 18:08, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
