[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Perry Mason (novels), did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Way back in 11 Sept 2009 I changed a Perry mason Page. I had just finished re reading all the books in order and there were a few mistakes I thought in the bibliography. I today added three short stories to Kate Wilhelm and I notice a alert up at the top. After reading it I see my Perry Mason changes were deleted. I do not know why. I really do not remember what they were but I think I was correct with the changes.

- It certainly seems the page has been changed in that time, since 2009, so I would not be concerned by it, and if needed, you can re-add them if still applicable. SwisterTwister talk 21:39, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
- You can view your past edits by clicking on the <User contributions> link in the left-side column. It will take you to this page. The actual changes that you made several years ago are viewable here. You could ask the editor that undid your edits by posting a question on their talk page, but it's been a very long time. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask. Scottyoak2 (talk) 21:51, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
- Following up, I have just realised that the reverting editor from 2009 actually died last year. It wouldn't be appropriate to post to their talk page. As the other responding editor above suggested, you can still edit the article, if needed. Scottyoak2 (talk) 21:56, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
