Talk:Ervin Drake

Spurious claim

A contributor named Jedsb rewrote this article on 26 July 2009 and said in his edit summary, "Basically I rewrote the entire article as it was full of dozens of mistakes and poor grammar. I am his living stepson".

Study of the version of the article immediately prior to Jedsb's intervention reveals no grammatical errors, nor were any glaring mistakes evident. Perhaps Jedsb might claim to have furnished additional original research, but the pretext he offered for the wholesale rewrite was unfounded. 174.16.23.157 (talk) 10:15, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
