17 May 2016
- 04:4804:48, 17 May 2016 diff hist +34 Handover of Hong Kong →Before the negotiations: added a tag noting that a citation is needed for the claim that Deng said that PRC would reclaim HK because PRC is the successor of the Qing dynasty. Also: isn't that irrelevant?
16 May 2016
- 22:5922:59, 16 May 2016 diff hist +23 Nova →Extragalactic novae: added the more common name of Andromeda to the discussion of M31
- 22:5522:55, 16 May 2016 diff hist −13 m Nova →Helium novae: found and removed another "malfunction"
- 22:5022:50, 16 May 2016 diff hist −15 m Nova removed an errant word - it was its own paragraph and sentence.. appropriately enough, the word that was just sitting there all on its own was the word "malfunctioning"
8 May 2016
- 07:0007:00, 8 May 2016 diff hist +42 Atom added wikilink to the words "are small enough" so they go to Matter Wave #de Broglie hypothesis, to help explain why being small matters
- 06:5406:54, 8 May 2016 diff hist +140 m Atom attempted to make a sentence sound a little less awkward.
- 06:4306:43, 8 May 2016 diff hist +186 Bolus (medicine) added inhalation to the intro, as it is yet another ROI of a bolus of medication. intranasal and rectal boluses are common too, so i noted that this list is not exhaustive and pointed readers to the article on routes of administration
- 05:1905:19, 8 May 2016 diff hist +66 Oxygen therapy →Exhalation filters for oxygen masks: reworded a sentence that someone put a clarify tag on. I hope I didn't make it worse. Took off the clarify tag.
- 05:1005:10, 8 May 2016 diff hist +68 Oxygen therapy →Exhalation filters for oxygen masks: I'm tempted to give the "meds are prevented from being released" claim a dubious tag in addition to the CNs I just added. Air can make it through the filte, what's stopping small-molecule drugs (ether? halothane?)
- 05:0005:00, 8 May 2016 diff hist +17 m Oxygen therapy →As a drug delivery route: fixed my wikilink - "bolus" no longer points to a disambiguation page.
- 04:5604:56, 8 May 2016 diff hist −936 User talk:Spiral5800 removed a bot notification
- 04:5404:54, 8 May 2016 diff hist +11 Atom →First evidence-based theory: removed the word "indeed", which was either doing a lot of heavy lifting or was merelybeing confusing. I replaced it with the humble "and"

- 01:4901:49, 7 May 2016 diff hist +1 m Respiratory syncytial virus fixed a typo
- 01:4501:45, 7 May 2016 diff hist +129 Oxygen therapy →As a drug delivery route: wikified this section, cleaned it up a little, added a citation needed tag

- 06:3206:32, 5 May 2016 diff hist +45 Baryon acoustic oscillations →BAO signal in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: removed a dead link, fixed wording
- 06:0506:05, 5 May 2016 diff hist −44 Euclid (spacecraft) →Scientific objectives and methods: different epochs in the history of the universe were "governed" (dominated by) different forces - today, dark energy is dominant, in other epochs it was not .Removed a clause that was so oversimplified, it was wrong
28 April 2016
- 00:1500:15, 28 April 2016 diff hist +933 Talk:Silverfish →Wall climbing: new section
27 April 2016
- 23:5423:54, 27 April 2016 diff hist +47 Silverfish →Description: extra appendages for wall climbing? this claim needs a citation.
- 03:0903:09, 27 April 2016 diff hist −4,278 Meritocracy removed a section that had no references, but sported a {{unreferenced}} template from 2010! In addition, IMO the section did more to confuse the article than add to it. If you bring any of it back please ref and cite!
13 April 2016
- 02:3402:34, 13 April 2016 diff hist +35 Asteroseismology →Oscillations: added a noref template to the oscillations section

- 02:2102:21, 13 April 2016 diff hist −341 Hydrodynamic escape removed dated, likely factually incorrect speculation about Pluto's atmosphere, and its pre-New Horizons citation . see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_Pluto#Escape
11 April 2016
- 23:2023:20, 11 April 2016 diff hist −107 m Oxygen therapy cleaned up my own edit.
- 23:1623:16, 11 April 2016 diff hist −100 m Oxygen therapy removed a redundancy i'd accidentally introduced
- 23:1523:15, 11 April 2016 diff hist +582 Oxygen therapy noted normal air oxygen concentration in intro
- 22:4822:48, 11 April 2016 diff hist 0 Respiratory syncytial virus the intro said "a medication" was available but didn't name it, which seemed odd. I added the name. Also added a tag noting that this article really needs more inline citations.
- 22:4622:46, 11 April 2016 diff hist +57 Respiratory syncytial virus the intro said "a medication" was available but didn't name it, which seemed odd. I added the name. Also added a tag noting that this article really needs more inline citations.

- 02:1802:18, 7 April 2016 diff hist +37 Water treatment needs more footnotes. sources too. added template regarding the former. curious about the latter.
3 April 2016
- 03:3203:32, 3 April 2016 diff hist +25 m Surgical staple →History: added a {{when}} tag
- 03:2203:22, 3 April 2016 diff hist +36 Surgical staple this article could greatly benefit from more inline citations - it has a few, but not nearly enough. Therefore, I added the {{more footnotes}} template. This article also should discuss how staples can be combined with sutures in deep incisions/wounds
22 March 2016
- 01:0501:05, 22 March 2016 diff hist +183 Darcel Clark →Bronx District Attorney: cited and attempted to NPOV the section on Candie Hailie

- 06:4606:46, 3 March 2016 diff hist −86 Multicellular organism removed questionable sentence from intro that made a strong assertion not found in the given citations

16 January 2016
- 08:0308:03, 16 January 2016 diff hist +110 Problem of time →Overturning of absolute time in general relativity: worked on this paragraph a tad, but I'm not certain that half of it isn't original research, completely wrong, or both
20 December 2015
- 01:4901:49, 20 December 2015 diff hist +32 Calcium carbonate noted limestone in the intro, since "rocks" were mentioned and limestone is entirely composed of calcium carbonate
