Your 2018 edit to Robert Lindsay ↗

In this change ↗, you added that his father worked at Stanton Ironworks; the source ↗ does not 'say' that:

<blockquote>Robert Lindsay (real name Robert Lindsay Stevenson) hails from a working-class family, both sides based for generations in the small Derbyshire mining town of Ilkeston. Several of his relatives still live there, including his father, Norman.
Norman Stevenson was a joiner before he retired and Robert’s mother, Joyce, worked in a stocking factory...

Generations of his family worked for the town's principal employer, Stanton's Ironworks, which also built and owned the the{{sic}} town's houses.</blockquote>

Would you please correct to source? You can respond here. Thank you.-- 82.13.47.210 ↗ (talk) 02:42, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed that you recently used rollback to revert this good-faith edit ↗ to Pyrope ↗ by a new editor without explaining why. Since there is precedent for setting the infobox background color to a common color for the mineral, it is my opinion that this edit was constructive (and in any case, the use of rollback was inappropriate since this was not obvious vandalism). I have restored the edit. If for any reason you think the background color should be left as the default blue (or changed to another color), please feel free to make the necessary changes and explain why. Thanks, <span style="font-family:Segoe Print;font-size:medium"><b style="color:#00386c">I<sub>2</sub></b><b style="color:#fed41d">Overcome</b></span> <i style="color:#666666"><sup>talk</sup></i> 19:03, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

:Your opinion I guess {{u|I2Overcome}}, but I think you overstep in your appraisal of my use of rollback. First, dark black-brown is not a super common colour for that mineral. Pyrope gets its name from, and is most commonly associated with, firey red tones. Second, the edit was made as part of a slew of similar edits with no explanation given for any of them. That's a fairly common pattern of disruptive editing. Putting that all together – a possibly disruptive, non-constructive edit, made with no explanation – I think rollback was a perfectly reasonable response. Commonly at Wikipedia, it is incumbent on a person wanting to make a change to the status quo to explain why that change is justified. If that edit is reverted then you need to do a better job of explaining why it is an improvement. This is the basis of WP:BRD ↗, which has always struck me as a principle people ought to use more here. <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;color:#92000a">Pyrop</span><span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;color:#CE2029">e</span> 22:19, 3 April 2025 (UTC)
