I made the copy editing changes you suggested to the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare article. Thanks for finding them. However, I'm not sure what you mean by not being able to make the changes yourself. Since the article is not protected (at least not when I looked), anyone can edit it. Feel free to let me know if you encountered some other problem. Anyways, welcome to Wikipedia. You might consider joining the Video Games Wikiproject if you're interested in improving video-game related articles. Happy editing, and do let me know what problem you encountered making the change yourself. xenocidic (talk) 23:39, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Oh, you're right, I see the lock now. There's usually also a more conspicuous message along the top, which is why I missed it. Anyhow, I think once your user account is about a week or two old you should be able to edit protected pages. Cheers, xenocidic (talk) 23:50, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
