Robert, please don't revert my edit. We do not sign our names in main article space - that is saved for signing comments on talk pages. I'll be reverting it back. Thanks. --Todd Coles 22:22, 12 February 2008 (CST)

I'm sorry Todd if I stepped on your toes. I do however think the baseball page needs serious revision and I would love to work with you on this. The reason for my edit earlier was I thought you were claiming the page as your own (since you made no additional contribution adding or retracting from my comments, which if its a misunderstanding or attributed to my newbie staus, I apologize). So can we coordinate our efforts here? I would like to make the baseball page "official". I've done quite a bit of reading, research, and writing that I think I can make a significant contribution.

Robert

Robert, you are making great contributions to this article, which is great. But I think you also need to better familiarize yourself with how a wiki works. I've reviewed the edit history and I don't see anything Todd has done that could even be remotely construed as "claiming the page" for his own. You did, by signing your name at the top, which is never done. And by the way, please sign your posts here, on the Talk page, by hitting the tilde key four times.

Robert, please do continue to work on this article. The contributions you made are great. Plus, if I tried to claim the page as my own I think people would run me out of town. :) I am guessing what probably happened, is you accidentally hit the signature button, and didn't realize it signed your name at the top of the article - that's the only thing I was trying to clean up. I apologize if I came off harsh, you aren't stepping on anyones toes. And, like Shawn said, if you hit ~~~~ at the end of your posts on a talk page, it will sign our name and timestamp it. There is also a button you can hit above the edit window that will do the same. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions, and welcome to CZ. --Todd Coles 07:21, 13 February 2008 (CST)
