Heads up? I had to remove some mysterious DEL tags that got inserted into my page's Install Instructions area. I edited them out, but I will post the code in a follow-up since I can't make this edit box to format a post with both code and normal text at the same time.

<ul><li>You need <u><strong>Direct3D 9</strong></u> to be installed. This is normally installed by your display drivers and or is built into Windows. Update: I've recently added D3DX9_43.dll and D3DCompiler_43.dll to the download, so hopefully it works out of the box. </li><li>Please don't copy these files into your <del>Program Files</del> directory. That's for programs that use "permissions". These files should belong to your Windows user account, so put them on your <del>Desktop</del> or user folder. </li><li><del>The game launcher may offend antivirus software, including Windows Defender. I apologize if Windows Defender deletes your files without warning. The EXE is <a href="http://svn.swordofmoonlight.net/tool/SOM_EX.exe">http://svn.swordofmoonlight.net/tool/SOM_EX.exe</a> renamed to the demo's title. Source code is at <a href="http://svn.swordofmoonlight.net/code/SOM_EX/">http://svn.swordofmoonlight.net/code/SOM_EX/</a> however the bulk of the code is in the SomEx.dll file, e.g. <a href="http://svn.swordofmoonlight.net/code/SomEx/som.exe.cpp">http://svn.swordofmoonlight.net/code/SomEx/som.exe.cpp</a>. (Please understand, I've no plans to change my work-life schedule to accommodate antivirus software. Sword of Moonlight is 20 year old software, so it has special needs that may raise red flags with antivirus.)</del> </li></ul>
I have seen the Edit page's form disintegrate before, like changes in the rich text editor spilled out into the rest of the page. I don't think these struck-out lines happened after an editing session. I just noticed them yesterday while in the regular page view. I think they just appeared out of the blue. There isn't much rhyme or reason as to why that text would be "deleted" but it's not completely random either, since it seemed to pick out capitalized words in two cases. I don't think I applied any formatting to these parts of the description (that might have morphed into DEL tags.) In any case, it seems I'm the first to report this experience :)
Strikeout: On second thought I think they were probably italicized. (But it's not like I hit the wrong button and never looked at the page until months after. I.e. it seems to have changed on its own.)

The content of the page will never change on it’s own. It’s highly likely a mistake was made when editing that you didn’t notice.
