Saturn vs Sega Saturn

I made a change at Steam-Heart's after your recent edit. "Saturn" is shorthand, so first mention, and the infobox should still read "Sega Saturn" when possible. Treat it like "Nintendo Switch". TarkusAB 16:45, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, TarkusAB. It's easy to forget which system names are shortened and which aren't. Sega Saturn isn't, Master System is, for example. Dgpop (talk) 04:26, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

Edit request for Anthony Wood

Hi Dgpop, I am employed by Roku and I am working to expand the page of Roku's founder, Anthony Wood (businessman). I see that you are interested in video games and computer history, and I hope you will consider implementing the edit request I posted at Talk: Anthony Wood (businessman)#Expand career section which mentions Wood's work on Lunar Lander and Commodore Amiga. Thank you, YZ for Roku (talk) 21:18, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks for getting my edit to the citizen's arrest law reverted because I apparently used "copyrighted" material known as the LAW OF THE LAND... so useful, thanks so much for your help. You're a credit to WP... FFS Apeholder (talk) 17:39, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi Apeholder. I removed the phrase "it should be noted that" based on the WP manual of style (MOS:NOTED). You don't need to note that you're going to note something, just note it. I don't know anything about the copyrighted material you mention. Dgpop (talk) 16:02, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
