Why was I dropped from the list of co-contributors?

There were several people (among them myself)
who originally contributed to this article.
It didn't seem that it was going anywhere, so
I haven't been involved in a long while, but still....
What happened?

I'm sorry that this has happened. When I was given the entry to sub, your name wasn't on the list of contributors. Also, on the original entry, no-one was listed as a co-contributer so I didn't spot that there was a problem.
Could you post the U-numbers of everyone who should be given a credit?

Hi, RhoMuNuQ.
Originally, the article was A599781.
Ormondroyd solicited contributions for a
collaborative article. There were four of us:
Ormondroyd, myself, Mandragora Scrymidden
(researcher 48588), and Insidious Dr.
Munchkin (Researcher 55447).

Don't know what happened there, Paul, but I've added you to the Researchers list now.
Many thanks,
Jimster

I see - a new article was obviously written by Ormondroyd. I'm not sure if everyone should be credited as the Edited article is very different to A599781.

Safer to keep everyone as there's no telling who contributed what...

Thanks.
One thing that I found when loking for info
on Lehrer was that most of us were drawing from
the same sources.
Obviously I'm grateful to Ormondroyd for tying it
all together. That's a lot of work.

My pleasure! I'm glad to see that you're happy now.
