Nonsense edit[edit]

Please stop adding nonsense to Wikiquote, as you did to Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. ~ UDScott 16:45, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure why you regard a direct quote from the episode as vandalism. Can you supply more information? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Aearl (talk • contribs) 14:48, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
I have again reverted your substitution of standard UTF-8 punctuation characters with HTML special characters that display as letters and symbols. This is what UDScott was referring to as "nonsense". I have assumed that you were attempting to replace em-dashes with some exotic punctuation, but as the actual characters displayed are �, and you have repeatedly made this change without explanation (see Help:Edit summary), it is getting harder to assume good faith. Could you explain how you are trying to improve this article with these edits?
Ah ha! Sorry. My fault (but no malicious intention). I'm running Opera which was reporting the page to me as having exotic punctuation which I was attempting to standardise. Wont happen again.
