Hello. If you are wondering why your contributions to The Other Woman (Lost) are getting reverted, please read the edit summaries (accessible via the history tab at the top). In the case of the Lost episode, your expansion went into unnecessary plot detail against the spirit of Wikipedia:Manual of Style (writing about fiction). – sgeureka t•c 10:41, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
- Because there are guidelines that say that plot summaries must be kept as short and concise as possible (no more than 10 words per screen minute, and Lost is a 42 minute show). The article is also a Good Article, and in order to not lose that earned status, it must strive to always be be within wikipedia policies and guidelines. Your plot addition changed that, especially since the plot is already clear enough in its current form. (To be fair, you are not the only one adding plot, and the plot section must be trimmed every so often again.) – sgeureka t•c 09:02, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
