Lester del Rey's Best Science Fiction Stories of the Year
I'm sorry, when I put your edit of this on hold I didn't realize that you were a Moderator too since I am a new Mod, and you haven't been around much in the last two or so months that I've been most active here. The reason that I did put the edit on hold though, can be found at ISFDB:Help desk#Title: Best Science_Fiction_Stories of_the_Year by Lester_del_Rey. Ahasuerus and I were supposed to get back around to cleaning it up a few weeks back, but we all get busy doing other things and sometimes forget. Once again, I appologize for stepping on your edit.

- The spammer seems to hit the pages about once a month and so even if it's the first time a page gets spammed I'm dealing with it as a "common" spam target as I know that spammer account will be back. Marc Kupper (talk) 00:01, 14 Aug 2007 (CDT)
- You're right, I acted too fast - I just saw that it was freshly created and didn't investigate the deleted edits, sorry. Still, when I did it turned out that it was all repeated efforts of a single account, so blocking the offender should suffice. I really think that it's enough having to lock lots of real talk pages due to the spam as it is, and keeping even such mistaken age names is too much. If there were concerted efforts by several accounts, perhaps; but I don't think it's gone so far yet. --JVjr 05:14, 14 Aug 2007 (CDT)
