[edit]Hello, I'm Trafford09. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Nolan Bushnell, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Hi there. I'm not doubting your alteration, but we can't allow editors to change factual things (esp. personal) without properly Citing sources. Thanks, Trafford09 (talk) 07:27, 26 March 2017 (UTC) Trafford09 (talk) 07:27, 26 March 2017 (UTC)
- Dear user Trafford,
- just read the article and you will see yourself. He has 8 children and not 7 ... it's just that easy.
- Regards
Thanks for that info., N8tingale. If I'd had more time originally, I could have checked. Apologies for reverting your seemingly quite correct edit, and please do continue to improve Wikipedia (though with an Edit summary!). Actually, you'd have been well within your rights to reinstate your edit yourself, giving the reason behind it. But I appreciate your taking time to point out my false impression. Best wishes, Trafford09 (talk) 09:58, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
