Panera bread
It looks like you restored content and left. Can you please come back and join the conversation and discuss your revert? Please see wp:brd, thank you Randy Peck (talk) 23:17, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
- I was reverting because you hadn't established consensus to remove that section on the talk page. Getting one editor to agree with you isn't consensus. I'll add my two cents there, though. Kirbanzo (talk - contribs) 23:19, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
Antigua KNH
Hi.
I investigated after getting your message regarding edits about the Antigua KNH recipients not being entitled to prenomials/titles (Sir/Dame). I did investigate and it appears you are correct. But my edits were meant in good faith. But I was thorough so there were numerous such edits regarding the award and its recipients. In any case, please do not mistake me for a vandal. Yours. 107.122.161.37 (talk) 23:41, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
- Apologies for biting. I wasn't aware it was just a simple matter of misunderstanding and thought it was deliberate. Feel free to remove the warnings if you wish - it is your talk page and anyone who cares can still find them in the edit history. Kirbanzo (talk - contribs) 23:45, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
