- 15:4515:45, 19 June 2009 diff hist −13 A Rose for Emily →Plot summary: Conservatively replacing "intimate relationship," which has connotations beyond what is really implied in Faulkner's text.
- 14:0414:04, 19 June 2009 diff hist −111 Battle of Jutland There was already mention of this in the article, and I think where it is is a better place for it.

- 19:2019:20, 17 June 2009 diff hist −37 Battle of the North Fork of the Red River I've just consulted this book and Wallace makes no accusation of massacre. Removed scare quotes. Altering accusation to match what's reported in Handbook.
- 19:1219:12, 17 June 2009 diff hist −20 Battle of the North Fork of the Red River Same as before, correcting some numbers which had strayed from the Handbook of Texas citation.
- 19:1019:10, 17 June 2009 diff hist −51 Battle of the North Fork of the Red River →The Battle of North Fork: The cited source says only that there may have been more, not that there probably were more or that they numbered 50.
- 17:1717:17, 17 June 2009 diff hist −74 Scott Helvenston Enough. Sources for Helvenston being one of the guys hung from the bridge have been requested for years, but never given, people just remove the fact tags. Delete unfounded material.
- 17:1117:11, 17 June 2009 diff hist +43 2009 shootings of Oakland police officers →Shootout on 74th Avenue: Added name of other SWAT team member, with cite

12 June 2009
- 21:5021:50, 12 June 2009 diff hist −337 Charles Fletcher Lummis →Quotes: Not a quote by Lummis, nor is it revelatory or even marginally relevant. The quote that actually is by Lummis isn't so hot either.
- 21:2821:28, 12 June 2009 diff hist −4 Air France Flight 447 No one questions that everyone on board is dead, and the link does not in anyway humor this "confirmed fatalities" affectation.
- 19:2119:21, 12 June 2009 diff hist +1,382 Talk:Santa Fe Trail (film) No edit summary
- 18:4418:44, 12 June 2009 diff hist −140 Santa Fe Trail (film) →Controversy: As I noted in Robert Buckner, it is well-known that Brown's efforts to provoke a slave rebellion failed thoroughly, which is doubtless what the film refers to.
- 18:4018:40, 12 June 2009 diff hist +8 Robert Buckner I doubt that. This was an obsure film that appeared years previously and was so poorly remembered that UA forgot to renew their copyright in 1968.
- 18:3718:37, 12 June 2009 diff hist −140 Robert Buckner It is well known, however, that the slave rebellion Brown hoped to start was completely unsuccessful, earning no recruits that Brown didn't import, which is surely what Buckner is referencing.

27 May 2009
- 19:0319:03, 27 May 2009 diff hist +2 Draco (lawgiver) →Draconian: Added quote marks to title to stress its subject is the word
- 19:0219:02, 27 May 2009 diff hist +1 Draco (lawgiver) →The Draconic constitution: Changing "Draconic" to "Draconian." A google web and book search of "Dracon[...] consitution" shows that the adjective Draconian is much more used.
