== OrphanReferenceFixer: Help on reversion ==
Hi there! I check pages listed in ] to try to fix reference errors. Recently, you <span class="plainlinks"></span> my fix to ].


Can I just add that anti-terror police arrested the man suspected of releasing what was called a "noxious substance" at LCY and he was detained under anti-terror laws, suggesting he had in fact committed some form of terrorism act. In addition, trusty newspaper sources including the Independent and the Times confirmed this was a 'terror incident'. Please revert to my previous edit, this is clearly a terror incident.
If you did this because the references should be removed from the article, you have misunderstood the situation. Most likely, the article originally contained both <code><nowiki><ref name="foo">...</ref></nowiki></code> and one or more <code><nowiki><ref name="foo"/></nowiki></code> referring to it. Someone then removed the <code><nowiki><ref name="foo">...</ref></nowiki></code> but left the <code><nowiki><ref name="foo"/></nowiki></code>, which results in a <strong class="error">big red error</strong> in the article. I replaced one of the remaining <code><nowiki><ref name="foo"/></nowiki></code> with a copy of the <code><nowiki><ref name="foo">...</ref></nowiki></code>; I ''did not'' re-insert the reference to where it was deleted, I just replaced one of the ''remaining'' instances. What you need to do to fix it is to make sure you remove '''all''' instances of the named reference so as to not leave any <strong class="error">big red error</strong>.


==HuH?==
If you reverted because I made an actual mistake, please be sure to also correct any reference errors in the page so I won't come back and make the same mistake again. Also, please post an error report at ] so my operator can fix me! If the error is so urgent that I need to be stopped, also post a message at ].

Also, you gave no reason for the other things. The perp did NOT say "I pledge allegiance to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant", but simply "I pledge allegiance to ISIS". And also, no one really says "police department officer" but simply "police officer". Can't have things sounding too wordy, awkward, and unnecessary, especially in the lede.

== Cosmetic edits ==

Hey Parsley Man, obviously since we are both editing articles in relation to the standoff I've been looking at a bunch of your diffs. I like a lot of them. However, I would ask that you please try and make fewer purely cosmetic edits. Those of us with expanded watchlists (showing more than simply the most recent edit for each article) get pretty annoyed when pointless edits clog up the screen. {{parabr}}Some recent examples from ] include and . Neither of these edits affected visual output or software behavior in any way whatsoever. (Double spaces between sentences are a pet peeve of mine too, but thankfully, the MediaWiki software automatically strips them when rendering a page. There could be 200 spaces there, and it wouldn't matter. Bots are actually ] from changing things like that in the absence of more substantive edits.) {{parabr}} not only does not affect output in any way, but removing spaces between parameters actually makes the editing screen ''more difficult to use'' for some people (i.e., me, as it now renders in the editor with many jagged line breaks caused by long urls + parameters with no spaces. If you have a high-resolution monitor, you probably don't notice this, but some of us still cling to our crappy old computers.). {{parabr}}Just to leave this on a positive note, I love edits like what you did with the first line you edited , it's a real skill to copyedit for concision. Thanks for all you do, but please at least pause to wonder if some of the backend stuff is actually needed. Take care - ] (]) 04:43, 16 January 2016 (UTC)
