== Concentration (game show) ==

Knock it off. This is the same ] you started in April 2020 (referenced here on your talk page—{{Diff|User talk:DawgDeputy|952149114|952120339|and which you personally acknowledged|diffonly=yes}}) adding unreferenced material and using "May 12th 1988: A contestant used a Green Take to take a Red Take out of play" and "Again, May 12th, 1988. It was not a joke. It was actually done" in your edit summaries. You are familiar with ] and how to cite episodes. Regardless of the sourcing issue, something ''changing colors'' one episode to the next does not need to be included in the article. If you want to get into the intricacies of colors of props/signage/on-screen text, start your own wiki. ] (]) 12:59, 26 August 2021 (UTC)

Your ANI report

Hi - just following up on the ANI report. I've asked the other editor on their talk page not to be so in your face with warning templates, and to explain their thinking rather than edit warring; I hope you don't mind if I follow up with a couple of pointers for you too? Basically, Misplaced Pages articles should ideally be based around what independent, reliable sources say about a subject. I know if sounds a bit crazy to call 'watching a gameshow' original research, but if you're figuring out the rules by watching the show, that's what you're doing - you're watching what happens, interpreting how the game works, and then writing your interpretation up here - we don't do that. My usual advice to editors is that if you can't find it in an independent, reliable source, leave it out of the article - it doesn't belong. So, yeah - I can see why they reverted you, but they didn't go about it in a very collegiate way. Hope this makes sense, let me know if you have any questions.

Makes perfect sense. DawgDeputy (talk) 19:54, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

Why are you reverting my edits and then reverting back to the language I originally used? AldezD (talk) 13:08, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

Simply reverting takes up much less time. I have too much on my plate already. DawgDeputy (talk) 20:04, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
