I wanted to let you know why Cluebot got involved in these edits, or at least my best guess. Although this is a bit of a false positive on Cluebot's part, that is to say, you did not do any vandalism, the revert was correct. I noticed you were adding square brackets around Oblivion in the Skyrim article. Typically, the practice is to only put brackets around the first mention of an article, which occurs in the lead paragraph, so the two that you added were not necessary. However, I believe Cluebot reverted you for the text "(needs reference)", which was not the normal way to note this. Please check out Template:cn. If you use the cn template, Cluebot shouldn't have any concern. -- ferret ( talk) 17:33, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
I'm new here, and I'm looking forward to being a part of this community! Scholarship and writing are part of my calling--this will be interesting!

Thank you very much for the feedback. I have an advanced degree in Psychology and have memorized and studied this movie for over 12 years. I believe that I myself am in fact, a reliable source for the content I placed on this article, and ask the content be made a part of the article.

Thanks very much! I left you couple of questions on your page. If that doesn't resolve it, consider the matter resolved. I will post my ideas on the Talk Page for that article. Thanks again!
