Apology

Hi, I was looking at the incorrect revision when I reverted your edit to iPhone 7 - I have undone my edit -- samtar ^{talk or stalk} 18:35, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

OK, that's alright. I accept your apology. XboxGamer22408 (talk) 18:40, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

Do you know SQL?

I was just looking through your userboxes - you wouldn't happen to know SQL would you? -- samtar ^{talk or stalk} 18:44, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

Currently, I don't know SQL, I'm really just an amateur programmer who programs for fun. I don't program a ton, but when I do it is usually in Visual Basic. XboxGamer22408 (talk) 18:49, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

Nothing wrong with that! Programming is good fun If you do decide to look at SQL, you might find Wikimedia's Quarry pretty interesting - you can run SQL queries against Wikipedia's databases, such as select * from user where user_name = "XboxGamer22408" -- samtar ^{talk or stalk} 18:53, 8 September 2016 (UTC)
