Talk:HotSpot (virtual machine): Difference between revisions

:"an IP (likely Tarcieri)" umm no, that wasn't me, but thank you for assuming the worst in people. I posted the revision where the references to Cliff I added were deleted to Twitter, and can only assume that one of my followers made the edit. From your comments, apparently I'm part of some sort of conspiracy that seeks to promote Cliff Click! Or I'm simply someone who recognizes his obvious involvement in the early days of the JVM. It seems your problem is I'm citing Cliff on Cliff. Okay, that's a reasonable complaint, I suppose, although a complaint anyone reasonably versed in the history of the JVM probably wouldn't make. Nevertheless I will prepare ample sources before I add Cliff back to the article. Once again I must voice my frustration with the way Wikipedia operates and once again ask you to consider why participation in Wikipedia is declining. But contrary to what you would immediately assume about me giving some random IP made an edit, I am no sock puppet, and before I touch the article again I will try to (painstakingly) conform to Wikipedia's policies, once again in protest of how onerous and discouraging of participation as they may be.
