[edit] Skip Bifferty

I have fixed up the problem. You could have too, the procedure was to move "Skip bifferty" (using the "Move" tab, to the right of the history tab at the top of the page) to Skip Bifferty. Have a nice day :-) --Commander Keane 17:04, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Harry

I wasn't quite sure which action of mine you were referring to. I'm guessing that it is that I marked Harry for cleanup. We have a style guide for these page: Manual of Style (disambiguation pages).

Basically, disambiguation pages exist to get people to their desired location. Someone types in Harry to the search bar - what were they looking for? Not Harry Cohn. Not Harry Connick Jr. Maybe Prince Harry. Certainly Harry (album). Probably not Dirty Harry etc. So some entries should be removed from the page, hence my call for cleanup.--Commander Keane 15:41, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hon.

"Why is Sir Michael Havers and his sons Philip and Nigel referred to as "Honourable". Is there a relinquished peerage somewhere that we have not been told about? "Honourable" is a courtesy title conferred on certain sons of the peerage, does this include life peers?"

The second is correct the former not so. Lord Havers is The Rt. Hon. Lord Havers , of St Edmundsbury in the County of Suffolk. His sons are Hon. due to their fathers title.Alci12 17:16, 8 May 2006 (UTC) =

[edit] Throughbred racing project

A number of Wikipedians have come together and formed the WikiProject Throughbred racing to help to expand and better organise information in articles and categories related to the sport of thoroughbred racing. As a past contributor to horse racing articles, we invite you to consider becoming a participant in the project, and/or adding the page to your watchlist so that you become aware, and can join any future horse racing discussions, which may be of interest to you.

[edit] Cyril Lord

Thank you for the message. I'll look forward to seeing the changes you mention over time. If his tale is like the one you compare it to, I'm sure it's quite a story. Erechtheus 06:17, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Indexing

Please, don't use accents and other special charactes at the indexing of articles, as you did in Pascual Pérez (boxing), because it disrupts the proper sorting due to a technical problem; accented vowels are considered to be alphabetically after Z (Placing Puerta before Pérez). Thanks, and good wiking, Mariano(t/c) 07:44, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bourne (castle and station)

Thanks for the appology. If I don't get worse than you gave me, I'll be doing allright. I had forgotten it.

As to the railway: it was certainly moribund by the time of Beeching's report in 1963 but I think it did remain open to use (just) until 1965 (J.D.Birkbeck p. 116). The station was demolished in 1964 (JDB p.116 and John Rhodes p. 43). The Essendine line closed in June 1951 (JR p. 43 & JDB p 116). The Sleaford timetabled service had gone in 1930 (JDB p. 116) but that line remained as in effect, a siding reaching to Billingborough, until 1965 (JDB).

The Castle site extends from Church Walk (the river opposite the Abbey is a remnant of its outermost moat) to Manor Lane. The revetted ditch opposite the electricity sub-station is the counterpart of the Church Walk Eau. In the north, this ditch lies under the pavement and shop fronts on the south side of West Street and in the south, from the north boundary of the Red Hall to the kink in Manor Lane south of the gate which stands across it. The whole, including these outer works, extends to 47½ acres or 17.5 hectares. The brick structure around the War Memorial stands in the outer bailey (The East Bailey as it was known) alongside the site of the brink of the inner bailey moat. The water in South Street is the East Bailey moat.

The parts of the originally extensive, water defences which remain have done so because they were needed in their other function as the mill pool and tail race for Baldock's Mill, which stands on the site of the castle mill. (RJP 17:45, 21 October 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Galloway

The cited page now has a scan of a national newspaper report of the incident, as you can appreciate it was only Monday so media coverage is still coming and I will update when i can... and Gregg was a member of Sinn Féin/The Worker's Party which was in fact one party (in Wikipedia as Official Sinn Féin)..

[edit] Problem with your user page...

Hi there. I've got a little request. Since you've added those color templates to your user page, you are listed as being (through categories) a shade of many different colors. That is probably not a good thing when there are guidelines like WP:SELF that we're supposed to follow, despite my respect for your appreciation of those templates. Would you please substitute those templates on your page and delete the categories from the resulting wikicode? Regards, Nihiltres 00:03, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

The main problem is that your user page being in non-user categories is that it's a general violation of WP:SELF. Check that link out, it's good to know - I only found out about it a month and a half ago. The general idea is that since your page is part of the Wikipedia project and not an article, it should not appear alongside articles in categories meant for articles. For example, if you looked through a physical encyclopedia and found an editor's phone number in the index, you'd probably find it odd. If you prefer having the templates appear on the page, then substituting the templates and removing the categories from the resulting code works well. If you just want to remember the names of each, you can use the {{tl}} template. Used with the syntax {{tl|NameOfTemplate}}, it produces {{NameOfTemplate}}. You can then use a list. You could even use both approaches simultaneously, as in =={{tl|template}}== (newline) {{subst:template}} (kill categories) Hope this helps :) Nihiltres 18:17, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Noticed your last userpage change since I watched your talk, and your page is looking awesome. Nihiltres 18:49, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edenham

I have done a bit to the page though there is plenty more which could be done. The pictures would enliven it. I think the railway might be better dealt with separately. There, a picture of the weighbridge house at Edenham station (by the 30mph sigh) might be useful, as would a view of the tracks' approach to Bytham. The embankments and cuttings might generally be a bit overgrown to show up effectively. (RJP 00:26, 24 November 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Guselen01.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Guselen01.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] Piers Morgan

Your additions have been removed per biographies of libing persons in that they do not cite any reliable sources, nor are they written from a neutral point of view. Among other things, such subjective words and phrases as "unusual" or an "exact contemporary" requires expert commentary that's already been published. Please write me if you have any questions. RadioKirk (u|t|c) 14:55, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Does this edit summary mean you intend to fight the efforts of editors who are working to make this and other articles compliant with the verifiability and neutrality standards required by an encyclopedia? RadioKirk (u|t|c) 23:47, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
