[edit] Editing

I noticed that a lot of text was here but was deleted! What is with that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alltheold (talk • contribs) 07:04, 10 October 2009 (UTC) If somebody does not give a good explanation I will repost what was here before.Alltheold (talk) 04:41, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

It was not deleted - it was placed in Talk:The Hardy Boys/Archive 2. Awadewit (talk) 04:42, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Also the section legal disputes mainly is about nancy drew not the hardy boys so I am removing it and moveing it to the nancy drew page. Thanks for telling me about the talk page issue.Alltheold (talk) 04:46, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Since the writing of the two series is connected through the Stratemeyer Syndicate, the legal dispute is relevant. I've restored this section. This material is already in the Nancy Drew article. Awadewit (talk) 04:54, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
