"detected that your edit to Lee Hays..."
Actually I was only moving a citation that was in a paragraph of the text to a footnote without altering it since I wasn't who placed it there. Of course it should have a full stop, but I thought I'd perhaps modified another's contribution enough. :) Masalai (talk) 17:16, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
- You removed the opening parenthesis before "Source:" but left the corresponding closing parenthesis; that summoned the bot. Fixed. Huon (talk) 02:16, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

Comment/question: Hi, I'm not sure I understand what "syntax" I've broken. Can you please give me more information so I can make the necessary corrections? Thanks, Deborah Mendez-Wilson 71.218.17.71 (talk) 19:47, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
- I could probably do so if you could give me some information to go by. The IP address you used for this question was not notified by BracketBot, has not made any other edits, and you didn't tell us what article or what diff this is about. Please provide either the article title or the talk page with the relevant BracketBot notification, preferably the latter. Huon (talk) 02:51, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

Page: Paul Harvey, Jr.
I never replaced Paul Harvey Jr. As Paul's sub I did the show whenever Paul was sick and filled in for Paul Jr. on the AM show when his dad was ill. I also did the memorial shows which lasted two or three weeks after Paul Sr. died. The oft-cited release that I was going to do a permanent show was wrong. This was announced by someone at Citadel but it was news to me and to my agent. I already had my show at KGO and my Real Estate show and had no need or desire to do a daily commentary, especially since making it newsworthy now that I lived in Sn Francisco would mean waking up at Midnight every night which I was glad to do once in awhile when I filled in for the Harveys but never considered doing as a regular thing. the release was put out by a Citadel official who apparently thought I would jump at the chance to do it, but I declined, especially since their offer was profit sharing of the spots. Since Citadel, though they were always perfectly nice to me, was near bankruptcy at that time, I didn't see the future of being a single creditor behind a bunch of banks and investment houses and figured I'd never actually see any money from this arrangement, and so, thanking them for the offer, said, thanks, but no thanks. It is the way of the internet that articles like the one cited never die, but it was wishful thinking on someone's part and not reality.
- All BracketBot pointed out was that when you removed part of the source you left other parts, leading to mismatched brackets. I've proposed the page for deletion because there's no indication that Paul Harvey, Jr. is independently notable. Huon (talk) 02:51, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

- Frietjes, I thank you for doing it as it means one less for me to fix.
- A930913, the bot reported this as an error: 1.) protest against Egypt's military council which dissolved a new

Thanks for detecting the error in Simeon Simeonov (footballer born 1946). The broken wikilink has been corrected. That's one of the weaknesses of the new visual editor. You can't see all of the characters, some of which are important, as you edit/move/delete text. I'm experimenting with the new visual editor as well as using the old wikimedia editor, which I've used for years. Thanks again. Truthanado (talk) 02:09, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

Comment/question: I don't understand where is the syntax mistake in {|style="width: 0"; margin: auto |- valign="top" |style="width: 15%"|, because I copied and pasted it from another Misplaced Pages article in order to create 3 singlecharts coast-to-coast (for a better readability).

second time likely employee of IIROC is vandalizing their page by removing content
Please take a look at the removal of three sourced sections by this IP address and let me know if you agree this is an "Unexplained removal of content". You reversed the last one by this user.

I am guessing 96.49.212.106 must be a direct employee or contracted company working for IIROC.
