Hello, I'm Schierbecker. I noticed that you recently removed content from Mowag Piranha without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

 * Thanks. Yes, I should indeed have left a comment, and I apologize for not doing so. I was looking for where to enter it before pressing "publish", but I guess I got too impatient. At some point once I'm back home, I'll have to revisit the article and check the cited source more (the archived page was giving me various issues, leading me to make the edit after not finding the material it was referring to). Thanks for getting back to me, though, about it all! Sw3de111 (talk) 01:21, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
 * And you're a Lazer Pig fan!!! Aah, I see you're a person of culture, as well. Sw3de111 (talk) 01:24, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Haha. Yes. One of my favorite YTers! I'll be happy to review any of your edits. Would you also add Sweden to "Former operators" if that is the case? Schierbecker (talk) 01:27, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you! that would be great (when you have the time, of course).
 * Backstory: earlier just before you got notification of my initial edit, I was farting around looking at what I could find about the Piranha. All I could find was the version II in Swedish service, and only that some tests were done with the IIIC 10x10 (therefore, I thought, no evidence of 33 version IIIs ever ordered). All non-official google hits also never mentioned the IIIC other than maybe being tested by Sweden (that example that you have on your page). I checked the Swedish Army equipment wiki for current and former vehicles and could not find it mentioned, either. Therefore, I went ahead and made my initial edit. I messed up by somehow missing where I could input the explanation of the edit (it has come up once before in my other only edit ever, other than "minor edits" I made).
 * However, PLEASE let me know if I am missing something, as I am very new to contributing to Wiki, and I only would want to me any changes that are supported by actual proof, and help clean up any typos, work on grammar, etc. Also, this vehicle doesn't seem to be mentioned at all(!) on the current or former vehicle list for the Swedish Army, but there are a bunch of non-official hits about it nonetheless. I would ask that you please consider going there and adding it and tying it in! Sw3de111 (talk) 01:48, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Jane's Recognition Guide (Fourth ed.) says only that a 10 x 10 variant is in service in Sweden. Army Guide's PIRANHA III 10X10 page, which is self-published and I can't link here because the URL is blacklisted, gives additional background. I'll try to find more sources.
