Hello, I'm DatGuy. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to 1973 oil crisis— because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Dat GuyTalkContribs 14:55, 9 January 2016 (UTC)

Just to elaborate: The license-plate info was certainly well-intended, but it was already described carefully in the 1973 oil crisis section, including a wiki link to the detailed article Odd–even rationing, and a footnote to a published reference. Wikipedia policy would consider it "undue weight" to insert this temporary U.S. regulation into the lead paragraph of an article with such global scope – but the message above was a bit harsh to consider it vandalism. (ClueBot is a web robot, so please don't take it personally!) —Patrug (talk) 22:54, 9 January 2016 (UTC)
