- 11:3811:38, 2 May 2025 diff hist +6 ʻOkina Clarify the initial disambig - that the distinction we're making is between the Polynesian letter and the *Unicode* character used to represent it (among other uses). Disambig wasn't previously clear that Modifier letter turned comma is specifically a Unicode concept.
- 11:3711:37, 2 May 2025 diff hist +21 Modifier letter turned comma Add Category:Unicode
- 11:3011:30, 2 May 2025 diff hist +16 ʻOkina Tried to further improve on User:JMF's edit to the bit about "mirrored 9". Getting the word "like" in there was good (since the glyph is not literally a mirrored 9) but "mirrored 9-like" is a very clunky adjective phrase and putting it in quotes is a bit confusing since we're not actually quoting anybody as far as I can see. Hopefully this preserves the benefits of JMF's change but makes for a less awkward read.

There might be some salvageable elements worth including - I'll look if I have time - but overall makes the article into a shameless puff piece, which is not okay. Tag: Undo

- 14:2614:26, 23 April 2025 diff hist +468 Burrows–Wheeler transform Rearrange and flesh out early content a bit. The "Description" section actually didn't contain a full description of the algorithm before, just an example, before the description finally came in the "Example" section, which was weird! Also we had multiple sections explaining why the algo tends to produce runs of a single character repeated many times, so I've merged them into a single such explanation.

- 11:0211:02, 23 April 2025 diff hist −612 Suffix array Removed Gawrychowski & Kociumaka cite. I don't see how their algorithms - all with worse than O(n) time complexity and limited to integer alphabets - can *possibly* be "optimal" as claimed here, since in the preceding paragraph we noted a COMPLETE suffix array can be computed in O(n) time and it's obviously only a further O(n) operation to filter that result down to a sparse suffix array. I have not studied the papers closely but surely the optimality claim just trivially cannot be true?
- 10:3210:32, 23 April 2025 diff hist −5 Burrows–Wheeler transform "More importantly" -> "Importantly". For one thing, it's not remotely clear which preceding fact the reversibility of BWT is meant to be "more" important than, but whatever the answer to that, it's a dubious subjective claim.

- 15:2415:24, 22 April 2025 diff hist −17 List of fatal dog attacks in the United Kingdom Trim a couple of words in Archie Joe Darby to remove unfortunate implication that there was a singular ("the") victim and the 22-month-old with life-changing-injuries doesn't count as a "victim".
- 15:1915:19, 22 April 2025 diff hist +382 List of fatal dog attacks in the United Kingdom Remove claim dog that attacked Jennings being "loose" (i.e. not on a lead) since I did not see any support for this in a skim of the existing references and the only other source I have attributes it to her (angry!) son but does not assert it as fact in the article's own voice. Also added further info about outcome from that same new source I found, and removed an incorrect dog name.

- 13:1113:11, 21 March 2025 diff hist −631 Eid prayers Remove recently-added "Returning via a Different Route" section, which basically repeatedly duplicates a fact already contained in the preceding paragraph (that Muhammad returned via a different route) at ponderous length. (The only new fact is that he did this to spread joy to a greater number of people, but the cited source doesn't corroborate that new fact!)
- 13:0013:00, 21 March 2025 diff hist −1,591 Evil eye Undo recent Islam additions. May be something valuable to salvage here but there are many issues, including: 1. reference formatting 2. Deen Elevation doesn't feel to me like a reliable source 3. the English translation of the supplication by Muhammed doesn't match that in the cited sources, and it's not even totally clear that the original quote refers to the "evil eye" in a supernatural sense 4. rituals described as "recommended" without any hint of by whom or how popular they are.

- 10:5110:51, 21 March 2025 diff hist −8 List of fatal dog attacks in the United Kingdom Also remove claim the "Bromley" in question was in London. The cited source gives no hint of this, and Great Bromley (presumably the Bromley in question) is not in London.

- 10:4610:46, 21 March 2025 diff hist 0 List of fatal dog attacks in the United Kingdom Undid revision 1280230865 by Ehrenkater (talk) - Bromley-by-Bow was never in Essex; it bordered Essex but was outside it. The article's mention of "Bromley in Essex" presumably refers to Great Bromley, which truly is in Essex.

- 13:4813:48, 20 March 2025 diff hist +3 List of fatal dog attacks in the United Kingdom Undo / rework recent edit that labels 19-year-old Morgan Dorsett a "teenage girl" (rather than the previous "19-year-old woman"); seems like a change to more emotive language (and perhaps offensive to certain feminist perspectives - a 19-year-old is legally an adult and some take "girl" to imply non-adulthood) for no benefit. Rather than purely revert, have rephrased in such a way as to avoid needing to say if a 19-year-old female is a "girl" or a "woman" at all.
