Ovary (botany)
Hi Yamla, I noticed on Nepenthes bokorensis that you reverted an IP user, and changed a link to Ovary (botany) back to just Ovary. I'm not sure what the IP use is/was doing in general (I think they might now be blocked) but it looks like there might be a few other similar reverts which now point to the animal ovary article rather than the (correct) plant one. I've corrected the link on the above N. bokorensis article but didn't want to go unrv-ing a load of admin rvs without discussion. Best, YFB ¿ 11:39, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- You, an editor in good standing, are very welcome to revert any of those rollbacks from me if you believe it appropriate. I was bulk-reverting under WP:RBI from a banned editor known for, among other things, introducing bad information to articles. There's a limited amount of additional information I can provide here due to privacy concerns, by hopefully that answers your question. Unrv-ing a load of my (admin) rv's would be perfectly fine here, so long as you check the edit is correct, and you'll receive thanks rather than criticism from me! --Yamla (talk) 11:49, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- Great, thought that was probably the context but always worth checking. Thanks for the quick reply, I'll take a look through the history and clean up any others :) YFB ¿ 11:55, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
