You really shouldn't keep changing every little thing that someone else writes. It gets tiresome really quickly and frankly this sort of behavior is what drives people away from wikis. Wikis are supposed to allow anyone to contribute but when one person decides that they "own" articles, this defeats that goal. Looking at your talk page shows that you have a long and unfortunate history of doing this. Clearly you alone don't know everything about every Namco arcade game. You certainly didn't know about Rompers bonus scoring. Please take a step back and think about this. To be clear, some of your changes are useful but others are just petty stuff where you seemingly just want to own the articles. | You really shouldn't keep changing every little thing that someone else writes.

:I am not going to argue with you about this, I am simply going to tell you: you changed a British English spelling ("utilise") to an American English one ("utilize"), and in the case of a regional spelling being changed, the original author's choice (which was mine) has precedence; I only learned this myself after an anonymous US user added "a better, easier, more understandable, accurate name for aubergine" to [[Pac-Man Arrangement/Walkthrough]] at 23:42 on 15th April 2012, and [[User:Moydow|Moydow]] reverted it ten minutes later with the summary "aubergine is the UK English name for eggplant; in such conflicts, the original author's choice has precedence". See in [https://strategywiki.org/w/index.php?title=Pac-Man_Arrangement/Walkthrough&diff=next&oldid=608005 this diff].
