punctuation quibbles

When one's changes are reverted, it's uncool to redo them oneself, so I'll instead call attention to them.

Sgt. Arthur Dietrich (Steve Landesberg) is an intellectual detective with a calm, unflappable nature and a seemingly endless supply of knowledge on a wide array of subjects (as Barney once opined, having a "flair for the esoteric".)

I moved the period outside the parenthesis; otherwise the sentence has no closing period.

Elizabeth Miller (Barbara Barrie): Barney's wife, a dedicated social worker is intended to be a regular character [...]

I inserted a comma after worker; without it the phrase Barney's wife floats unattached to anything, unless it's a vocative.

An unregistered editor undid both of these. —Tamfang (talk) 00:04, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
