Hello, welcome to Wikipedia. You are changing all the plus signs to daggers in the date pages. In fact wikipedia has been trying to move away from both +'s and daggers because of the Christian bias of having little crosses to mark people's deaths. Instead we now usually use "d. XXXX".

Hi, regarding the note that you posted about [[User:Robartin|Robartin]] on [[Wikipedia:Cleanup|cleanup]]: since the text is from the U.S. government, it wouldn't be a copyvio, just unformatted. I've already left him a note. [[User:Meelar|Meelar]] 07:37, 20 Jan 2004 (UTC) |
