There was absolutely nothing wrong with the description or writing that was capriciously changed without written explanation. I have reverted back to the original article I was writing. As an "inuse" tag is not used here I can not tag the article as such. Also, there is plenty of articles waiting to be written, with few authors, so I would like to know why there is such an interest concerning an article I am attempting to write.

:Mary, that's nonsense.  There's no reason to have to ask permission to copyedit another's work on a wiki.  There is not, and hopefully never will be, an "inuse" tag at Citizendium precisely because we expect others to jump in and help each other.  If you want to develop an article, use a sandbox, but know that it will get edited when you put it in public spade. Enjoy the fact that someone wants to work with you and please be kind. [[User:D. Matt Innis|D. Matt Innis]] 23:20, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

Returned AKC description that was arbitrarily changed without explanation by another contributor.

There was absolutely nothing wrong with the description or writing that was capriciously changed without written explanation. I have reverted back to the original article I was writing. As an "inuse" tag is not used here I can not tag the article as such. Also, there is plenty of articles waiting to be written, with few authors, so I would like to know why there is such an interest concerning an article I am attempting to write.

Mary, that's nonsense. There's no reason to have to ask permission to copyedit another's work on a wiki. There is not, and hopefully never will be, an "inuse" tag at Citizendium precisely because we expect others to jump in and help each other. If you want to develop an article, use a sandbox, but know that it will get edited when you put it in public spade. Enjoy the fact that someone wants to work with you and please be kind. D.
