Question is simple. For you an adult and university graduate speaking three languages answer would not be a problem. IN ORDER TO PLEASE YOU, DO YOU EXPECT ME TO REWRITE HISTORY TO MAKE COMMENTS/CHANGES DIFFERENT FROM PREVIOUS ONES ? Please think before wasting time of others. 200.193.129.125 (talk) 16:05, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

 * The question is indeed simple, but it isn't the question you posed! The simple question to be answered is "did you use multiple IP addresses to get around Wikipedia policy? Even if your edits are "right", you don't get a free pass to ignore policy. Mayalld (talk) 22:18, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

The IP addresses geolocate to different countries (GA, USA and Brazil), so unless we have an international meatpuppetry ring going on.... The comment from the Brazilian address troubled me, but if we accept that he may not have English as a first language, I think he is just saying that he though the GA, USA editor was right, and that it made sense to use his words rather than rewrite.
