- Many thanks & apologies to others who have commented, I found it impossible to make head or tail of where/who I should ask my question:
- Itwould seem there is more than 1 actor called Colin Campbell, my father born in 1937 was indeed in a television program called A Family at War where I noticed the deletion, he is still alive but not too well so finding this was upsetting & incorrect. He also had a role in The Leather Boys if that helps to identify him
- Thank you again for your assistance & hope I'm writing to the correct person!! I will also try to contact Kuru — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dee1957 (talk • contribs) 17:06, 12 September 2012 (UTC)

- Thanks, I have read your response there. EdJohnston (talk) 20:00, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
- Hi again. As you know I am following your recommendations, so I am giving a rest to Element 115 in popular culture. Well, as you are a neutral part.., then (and I promise don´t bother again) may I ask you please a little favor? Actually I already asked this to another editor very earlier, but .. is kind of unlikely that help; and I don´t wish to bother other editors from that debate. So, there is a horrible article’s sentence in the introduction which needs to be fixed:
- Could you (or a friend of yours) replace this sentence:
- <Nonetheless persist accounts relating this element to the purported propulsion of UFO’s. Whereas for instance comes in the claim of the disclosure of secret studies such as a sketch showing mathematical equations for the Element 115 which denote its supposed use as driving force for interstellar ships.>
- For something like this:
- <In spite of this are found popular reports that for instance connect this element with the supposed technology used for propulsion of UFO’s. As well as there are allegations of classified researches about it, and even the supposed disclosure of a sketch showing mathematical equations which denote use of the Element 115 as driving force for interstellar ships.>
- Please let me know if you can. All good. Eka-bismuth (talk) 20:23, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
- As a 3RR admin I should not edit this article. But you can propose this on the talk page and someone else could make the change. EdJohnston (talk) 20:57, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
- I see, thanks for reply anyway. However this replacement is a minor change EdJohnston, it is a single copy-edit. This replacement is intended to give readability to the sentence. There is not change of contents, therefore is not an issue to Talk page. So, would be possible you asking please to specific somebody who has good will?

- As a 3RR admin I should not make even simple copy edits, since nobody may want to revert an admin who is active on the case. Why not wait and see if the problem goes away after more editors arrive and make their contributions? If it's a small matter of writing style it should not be that hard to fix.

- Well, as you can see, it is not hard to fix, and yet that’s the puzzling. Besides, just to you know, actually was an editor from that AfD who have first asked me for fixing such sentence. He argued that this was important for that debate (now running). But as I am following your advice, … then… you know the rest. But why an editor would revert a minor edit making it again nearly illegible? Probably he would not have good intentions (right?). All good. Eka-bismuth (talk) 16:42, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
