Thanks for your contributions to Protriptyline‎. I don't know if it's intentional or not, but twice you have deleted content (the category and the {{Antidepressants}} template) from the article. They are there for a reason and shouldn't be deleted. Thanks. --Ed (Edgar181) 18:19, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

It was accidental (thanks) but let's take a look at what happened
My first edit kept the category & template as intended. My 2nd edit was brief but accidentally dropped the category & template. You fixed the error and added [citation needed].
Your edit came in so quickly after my error that it caused an edit conflict with my 3rd revision, which was to add some text.
I was pissed at you for so eagerly fact-alizing my edit but I nonetheless faithfully copied your [citation needed] into my newly edited text and saved the changes.
THEN I looked at the page history and noticed your helpful edit comment regarding deleted text. Mortified, I tried to replicate the inexplicable error, thinking there might be a software error regarding categories/templates because I had not logged in today since I'm using a friend's computer. My conclusion is there is no bug: using an unfamiliar keyboard was probably the culprit.
I award this round to you, greatly appreciate the error you caught, assert that the new content is factual, note that I no longer have time to dig up & format a citation for you, and suggest that you might temper your fact-flagging somewhat where nearly empty stub articles are concerned. Any reasonable content, to get the wikiprocess going, is better than nothing. Although I'm a long term editor here, one would not want to discourage new editors who may choose to contribute in good faith to a nearly empty article.
