- 21:0921:09, 9 February 2024 diff hist −1 Quark-nova Fixing CS1 maintenance message: {{cite web}} with "url-status=unfit" has a link to a 404 page. That's not what "unfit" is for (it's for "links to vice (gambling, pornography), advertising, or other unsuitable page"). Changing to the appropriate "url-status=dead" (see Category:CS1 maint: unfit URL)
- 20:4420:44, 9 February 2024 diff hist +30 Quark-nova "spins down" seems like it's probably a term of art, and should be explained

- 02:0202:02, 20 January 2024 diff hist +6 Brood XI →1954 emergence: The rest of the article implies it's not absolutely known to be true that they're literally extinct, and there actually have been years that they've emerged after having been presumed extinct, so I'm changing "final record" (of their emergence) to "most recent record". C'mon Brood XI, I'm rooting for you!

24 December 2023
- 00:4900:49, 24 December 2023 diff hist −12 Cosmo Kramer Reverting uncited claim that Kramer's name is "Eddie". This is apparently based on a single use of it wherein Jerry seems to say to Kramer "Slow down, Eddie". There's some disagreement that this is what Jerry actually says, but in any case, I've been unable to find anything definitively explaining this as an actual reference to Kramer's real name (as opposed to part of some idiomatic saying or even just a slip).

- 20:0620:06, 12 December 2023 diff hist +8 Dublin lock-out →Escalation: "Noé O'Connell Street" => "now known as O'Connell Street". I guess "Noé" was meant as a sort of counterpart of "née"? This theory seems plausible from the edit history, wherein it was inserted when changing "O'Connell Street (then known as Sackville Street)" to "Sackville Street (Noé O'Connell Street)". In any case, I've never heard the term, and I haven't been able to find any indication of its use in English anywhere else, so here we are.

- 21:5721:57, 9 November 2023 diff hist −27 Northwest Territories Removing mention that lakes "freeze over in winter", as it was confusing (at least to me) on first read before having realized it was just a side note to its immediate context: Seemed like it was implying that since the lakes freeze in winter, you could reasonably count them as part of the "land area". It was NOT implying that, but since the "freeze over" part was just a side note to the context anyway, I figured I'd just drop it so as to avoid having it confuse others as it did me.

Hunter Reverting all of the changes made thus far today, none of which had citations provided except the first, and the citation for that one doesn't actually say anything regarding the new claims it was being used as a reference for. Also, overall, today's changes resulted in the breaking of a pre-existing citation. current Tag: Undo

If anything, the fact that the assumption leads to Russell's paradox seems a whole lot cooler and more interesting than if it led to no such unexpected weirdness!
22 August 2023
- 02:3702:37, 22 August 2023 diff hist +33 First Win I don't understand why my "The manufacturer, Thailand's Chaiseri, hopes to <blah blah blah>" was changed to "Chaiseri, hopes to <blah blah blah>"; there was no prior main body mention of who "Chaiseri" is (i.e. no context to know it's the manufacturer), nor of what country they're from. So, I'm changing it back. I won't edit war from here out, but if you do, please note that at the VERY least, your earlier change left the sentence ungrammatical (extraneous comma), so fix that too.
