- 20:56, 6 June 2018 (diff | hist) . . (+530) . . Talk:2003: Presidential Succession (All of this talk about ''where'' people were born is very misleading. The general opinion is that you have to have been a citizen from birth, not born in the U.S. (or a U.S. territory or whatever).)

- 18:13, 27 March 2018 (diff | hist) . . (+10) . . 1972: Autogyros (→Transcript: You need to say how many sentences are in each section for the transcript, because you can't assume that people can see it.)
- 20:18, 10 February 2018 (diff | hist) . . (-14) . . 1953: The History of Unicode (→Explanation: Not clear that it's international, since Maine and New Hampshire are currently both within the USA. But clearly something has changed!)
