The blogspot item's copied from Wikipedia. See for example this October 2012 version of At sign. NebY (talk) 18:22, 22 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the reply. I just reverted the edit. NeoGaze (talk) 18:25, 22 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@NeoGaze, I'm puzzled by your other deletions. For example, you've deleted "is most commonly used in", leaving "It the form". I can't find the phrase "most commonly" in either source for the draft's statement and it does not seem a sufficiently substantial or distinctive phrase to be protected by copyright. I haven't yet examined the other deletions but I suspect "a pattern to a variable", at least, is similarly innocuous. NebY (talk) 18:34, 22 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, never mind - I see you've restored them while I was probing and typing. Thanks. NebY (talk) 18:35, 22 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
