According to User:Jimbo, the subject of this article, Lou Reed, has edited the article - correcting his birth name only to have his correction reverted.[1] This article has been viewed enough times in a single week to appear in the Top 25 Report. The week in which this happened: October 27 to November 2, 2013

More specifically, the reversion edit https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lou_Reed&diff=prev&oldid=1262577521 , in my opinion seems to loose a lot of good content and sources. 38.49.72.138 (talk) 20:05, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
