Not going to argue semantics/rules here, just wanted to say that to me, it looks like part of the paragraph (may be a tagline, may not, but to me, part of the paragraph anyway).  I would include it in my database Overview, bold it, but no space between it and the rest of the text (just as it appears on the back of the case), and lock it that way if I had to.


Well.. all I can say is the contribution has been voted on 6 times.... all agreeing with the removal.

So, what started out as agreeing on the removal of the space turned into removal of that sentence altogether?  Any other time I might agree.  "Taglines" are typically separated from the rest of the text and in larger, sometimes different print.  But this appears to be part of the paragraph so I would think it would be included but bolded, just as it appears on the back of the case. 

Oh well, rules is rules and perception is all.

As you said... that is what it appears to you. To me it appears to be above what the actual overview is.

And lets face it... all you can do is vote and contribute per the way you read the rules... and the way you read the source material (in this case back of the box). Sometimes the answer is just not an obvious thing... all you can do is the best you can do following the rules you have.

That is who I was talking to (bbbbb) when I said no one said it was a definitive source.


Sorry, I took it as if you were responding to Kathy's post, the one above yours, since there was no quote in the post.

This contribution note would be sufficient per rules: "Removing tagline from overview."

Information overload, "As per rules." will do.
