Ebe123: Just because you want to insert an image, is no reason to revert back to your own previous version, thereby wiping out all the work of intermediate editors between. That's rude. Stop editing like a bull in a china closet. [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Fluorine&action=historysubmit&diff=414451266&oldid=414318228]

:Sorry to jump on you, but this cost me some time, and was annoying. I assumed that after being here a year and making a thousand edits, you'd have learned this by now. Yes, whenever you bring up a previous version of an article and save it, everything else is written over (this is a good way to erase a lot of vandalism, if ALL of it is past a certain version-- you just go back to the pre-vandal version and save that. If you save a previous version with good edits after it, that's usually not a problem if somebody notices this immediately, and does the reverse to YOUR edit. But if you do this and then a bunch of editors add new stuff AFTER you without noticing that you've taken out a lot of good edits (as in the [[fluorine]] article), it becomes difficult to disintangle, since good edits are mixed in with bad ones. Cheers. [[User:Sbharris|<font color="blue">S</font>]][[User:Sbharris|<font color="orange">B</font>]][[User:Sbharris|H]][[User:Sbharris|arris]] 19:37, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
