Most of them are good, but I had to reject two for different reasons

  1. You made an edit which removed a valid trope link and left stray trope markup, so I had to reject it for formatting reasons.
  2. The second was the edit on Older than Television, this was mostly due to concerns of an attempt at censorship. While it is true television in it's crudest forms existed since 1920s, it DID exist in Nazi Germany in the 1930s, as there were demonstrations of the German patent version for the early electronic models in the mid to late 1930s. There were even earlier prototypes dating back to the 1850s, but you were correct to fix the date of the technology as most would understand it in it's modern form to the 1920s. I understand the Nazis are a touchy subject, but under their government certain advances in electronic television design were made and demonstrated, including at the 1936 Olympic Games. As to the second edit, please do not censor true information, even if it pertains to something developed by an inventor in Germany under the Nazi regime.


You've done well so far for a starting editor otherwise, but we do check to make sure information is accurate before posting, and information you remove should come with a clear reason why on objective grounds, such as being factually wrong, with a citation of a source if need be to eliminate doubt.
