[edit] Florida-Florida State rivalry

Yes, I probably was quick on the trigger because it was an edit by an IP account. I have copyedited the addition. I don't think it was overly flowery, though that's something I try to clean out of additions, so I took out a few adjective phrases and tightened up the text. The language is tweaked, but the substance is now in there. —C.Fred (talk) 13:46, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Don't forget that once text is added to Wikipedia, it's not really "your" addition any more. It's part of the article, and any editor is free to revise it for the good of the article. I removed the added text the first time because I thought it wasn't for the good of the article. I let it stand the second time because, on reconsideration, it did enhance the article; I tightened up the writing to improve it. —C.Fred (talk) 13:54, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

C.Fred, regarding your earlier comments and edits: fair enough, this is a learning experience for me. Thank you for your insight. My goal, just as is yours, is to attempt to enhance the accuracy and fairness of Wikipedia. I don't fault you for deleting my original edit since indeed I was not signed in. —Poucher(talk) 14:00, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
