[edit] Removal of content

I have reverted, again, removal of large slabs of content. If an editor considers that they should not be included in the article then please discuss it here, providing reasons for that view. Removal of significant content without proper discussion is considered vandalism and could result in a block. TerriersFan 03:42, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] It's not relevant to email spoofing

That content is about spoofing TCP sessions in general, so it belongs in another article. The person who made those reverts was actually improving the article. As you say, some discussion would have helped you understand the motive, but it wasn't vandalism even if done without discussion. Wholesale reverts are fine, and are not vandalism; they're being bold. Please assume good faith; it isn't helpful to make accusations of vandalism against users who have acted in good faith.

I agree. The vast majority of this content has nothing to do with email spoofing. It is about TCP/IP, a much more low-level topic. Superm401 - Talk 18:08, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
