My reversion of three edits

   I reverted, about half an hour ago before completing the edit that began this second-level talk section, the following three edits:

• (cur | prev) 12 July 2016 72.223.46.8 (talk | block)‎ . . (34,734 bytes) (-277)‎ . . (→‎Activities in the surrounding area: Removed irrelevant information with unrelated reference.) (undo)
• (cur | prev) 15:16, 12 July 2016 Emilio.Ramon.Isla (talk | contribs | block)‎ . . (35,011 bytes) (-1,162)‎ . . (An international tribunal in The Hague ruled in favor of the Philippines in a maritime dispute Tuesday, concluding China has no legal basis to claim historic rights to the bulk of the South China Sea.) (undo | thank) (Tag: Visual edit)
• (cur | prev) 14:07, 12 July 2016‎ 216.255.98.240 (talk | block)‎ . . (36,173 bytes) (-39)‎ . . (→‎EEZ) (undo)

(If you haven't tried this exercise before, i cut and pasted from the history page, and for the moment it looks like these three edit-history entries are automatically nicely linked, but they weren't, and i'm relinking -- "by hand" (and by trial and error bcz after you've once learned how it's actually less boring than rereading the documentation) to some of the text to the WP pages in question, for your convenience, which is a big part of why this edit -- see below for the time stamp of my save -- is so slow in being added.)
   (Well, sorry, i made that sound like i was saving immediately after getting the above aids straight in my edit box, to provide some insight about what, but i got distracted three or more hours ago, without having saved the previous 'graphs and bullet points.)

   Yes, everyone can edit WP, but not all edits deserve the same degree of patience and forbearance, and i've exercised some reasonably experienced judgement in deciding those three need reversion for discarding material that should be reworded to reflect verifiable changes to the relevance of the new decision to the overall history of arguments that (still!) were made in the past, even tho more may need to be said about them in light of the recent ruling. (I am for now neglecting other edits made since the court decision but prior to these three, not because those are less troubled than these three, but bcz i can't tackle the whole post-decision body of work (immediately, and/or alone)).

Noting more recent, more constructive edits

   I'm less panicked by others' edits of the last 8.5 hours (8.5, sheesh!), tho i still want to look back to see if other, still earlier edits since the ruling jettisoned material that should be modified rather than discarded.

Yes, the Filipinos are directly concerned since a whole lotof mTerials on the top of the page were all about the Chinese claiming all of our shoals lately.. The country spent a whole lot of money and chose the best lawyer around to defend our country and its territories.. A townful of officials went to the Arbitral Court to fight for our country and all we get from Wikipedia is the bottom page claims about it when all of Chinese claims are on the top and some of them in bold letters.. These Chinese got all too bold all of a suden when the American bases left on June 10,1991when Mt. Pinatubo erupted. The Americans evacuated in a hurry together with the town folks and let go of their bases when at that time, it was in question if the lease will continue..

They are talking there about putting their flag in 1980.. That can not be because US CARRIERS AND SUBMARINES are there until theMt. Pinatubo erupted.. Filipinos and Americans alike holds their exercises there.. There is no way they can come an inch close to them.. All their lies are flying all over the place.. All of a sudden a whole lot of maps showed up, threw some artifacts on the sea and all those fronm them.. Their dates are not even adding up just as much lie they are putting out there..

There!s no way they can come clise there because tons of US ships and carriers are parked and sailing all around there.
