Thank you. I like working on the Wikipedia:WikiProject_Countering_systemic_bias, I learn so many new things! I actually didn't think my article was very thorough, so went back and tried to expand it, but couldn't find much more biographical information on the Web. There are plenty of links out there, but they're all about the magazine and the book. Hope my expansion didn't spoil it, in your opinion. I found it kind of ironic that she went from a background like that to Sesame Street, but there it is. GRuban 20:08, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Non-image sleuthing?

One problem with the wiki is that its not entirely obvious how to get help. I need to find someone who can help me track down a series of changes to the Ashton-Tate article, and typing in "wiki sleuth" led me here.

Do you know anyone adept at tracking down anon users by IP? The article in question was modified in a series of unlabled edits that seriously changed the tone to one that was extremely positive, notably in the description of Ebers. For instance, it expunged several interesting tidbits of information, like how the company deliberately paid bills late and eventually had their power turned off, and how Ebers hated the 3rd party developers and eventually yelled "make my day" by threatening to sue them all.

I have a feeling the edits were made by Ebers himself, or someone close to him. I should do a revert, but I would like to make sure first. Any ideas?

DYK

Did you know? has been updated. A fact from the article Muscles of the hip, which you recently created, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

An interesting article; your edit summary in the article reads "written by my lovely wife." Believe she knows about GFDL :-) --Gurubrahma 18:05, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
