Hi. On Talk:Student loan deferment you wrote: "Several sentences in this article are missing verbs". If you see something like that which needs improvement, be WP:BOLD and do it yourself! That's how Wikipedia works. If somebody else thinks it's not an improvement, they may change it back. If that happens, don't make the change again - that could lead to WP:Edit warring - discuss on the article talk page, and try to reach WP:Consensus with other editors. That's all explained at WP:Bold, revert, discuss.
You also suggested merging the article with another. That's a bigger step which you shouldn't take on your own - suggesting it on the talk page is the right thing to do. There are "templates" you can use to make a proposal - see Help:Merging. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 18:19, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks, JohnCD! I've never extensively edited Wikipedia - only when I see flagrant errors that I worry others won't catch any time soon. I honestly didn't know that you could edit the main (topmost) section of an article until today. Always happy to learn something new! Galatix27 (talk) 18:58, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
