Your recent reversion of a deletion in the article Muskox

Hello. Recently I deleted this line from the article Muskox, which you restored by deleting my edit:

Muskoxen were introduced to Svalbard in 1925–26 and 1929, but this population died out in the 1970s.

The reason I did delete it for, is because the exact same information is conveyed in an earlier text just a few sentences above it:

An attempt to introduce the muskox to Svalbard also failed. Seventeen animals were released in 1929 by Adventfjorden on West Spitsbergen. In 1940, the herd numbered 50, but in the 1970s, the whole herd disappeared.

By the way, the sentence I deleted was actually added by me, with the same source (Aulagnier et al, 2008), when I created the subsection "Reintroductions in Eurasia". The other text was added by a different user at a later time, expanding the information about Norway but without caring if some of that was already present and became repeated as a result.

I now realize that the other user didn't add any sources however, even if what they say is compatible with what I've read on the subject. I'm not sure how to proceed, so I won't edit it, but I think the current text should be left as is, with the repetition.--Menah the Great (talk) 17:08, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Ah! Sorry, by your edit summary I thought you were deleting it because you thought Svalbad == Iceland, because where you deleted it from also mentioned Iceland. You could check the existing sources and see if they support the other editor's addition, and not that with the appropriate ref tag. - UtherSRG (talk) 18:47, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Question from Mtaibbi on Talk:Nationwide opinion polling for the 2024 United States presidential election (11:06, 15 November 2024)

Hello - my name is Matt Taibbi. I'm a reporter and writing about the decision to remove RCP. I'm trying to understand why it happened. I started covering campaigns in 2004, when it was the only polling aggregator in existence. It has a very strong track record and clearly outperformed the others in this cycle. It lists the error histories of all the polls it uses. Why would this service be removed? --Mtaibbi (talk) 11:06, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

You should probably ask on that page. I can assist with general questions or with questions about taxonomic articles. - UtherSRG (talk) 11:59, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

Kamchatka Brown Bear

There was an extra space between the starting letters so I had removed it but by removing it the apostrophe got switched so I had to change it again Eiehel (talk) 13:26, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

Also I had removed extra space around "It" Eiehel (talk) 13:36, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

Well, you messed up worse than you fixed, so I'd reverted. I've now done a round of cleanup on it. - UtherSRG (talk) 15:10, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

Thanks Eiehel (talk) 15:26, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
