| − | :I take exception to your accusation. I have "taken credit" for '''nothing''' that you have contributed. If you are worried about the credits that appear above the articles, I agree that minor contributions and/or edits of spelling grammar, etc. should NOT be accompanied by a credit on the same line with the main contributor- if at all. The way it is now, if a logged-in member so much as adds a period at the end of a sentence, their name appears on the same line with the writer of the article. I have '''numerous''' articles that '''''I''''' wrote that have other names besides mine on them for having done nothing more than add a category to the bottom of the page! But currently this is just how it's set up. In fact I have asked Jon to add an option to eliminate credit from appearing in an article when only minor edits have been done. So far, nothing has come of this request- but it's not like I haven't been aware of this being a problem and it's not like I haven't tried to do something about it. | + | :I take exception to your accusation.

:If you are not satisfied with my explanation, or if you are referring to something other than the credits that appear above your article, I respectfully request you respond here and give me a chance to look into it. But there's '''no way''' I have taken credit for your- or anyone else's- work. In fact I had to fight hard just to have another admin here on the Crankshaft Coalition wiki cease removing credit given to the originator of an article that the admin had "rewritten".--[[User:Cobalt327|Cobalt327]] 11:13, 16 January 2015 (MST) | :If you are not satisfied with my explanation, or if you are referring to something other than the credits that appear above your article, I respectfully request you respond here and give me a chance to look into it.
