[edit] MASH (film)
Sorry, if it wasn't intentional on your part, but I was expressing my annoyance over the fact that you and IP 82.35.32.63 seemed to be closely collaborating on a long sequence of edits, after which the formatting was left in a mess (with bold text running everywhere).

[edit] Johnson and Friends
Your article Johnson and Friends has appeared in the Dead End Pages list because it is not wikified. Please consult the Wikipedia Guide to Layout for more information on how to write a good, wikified article. I would encourage you to revisit your submissions and {{wikify}} them. Thanks and happy editing! James084 15:25, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Johnson and Friends again..
Perfectly alright, someone asked about it on my forum and when I spotted the page I certainly couldn't let it be deleted. I just wish people would search the web before suggesting an article for deletion, a simple google would have shown that the page had a very good right to be there! J&F was a great show! --Jonathandavis 14:59, 29 December 2006 (UTC)--Jonathandavis 14:59, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Somers Town
We need you too! Thanks for the encouragement, both afterwards and before my minor edit. I read the article through after noting your comments on the talk page. All we can do is each edit a bit as we have time and energy...
Currently considering pulling the Frank Dobson link. He's been the local MP since the year dot ('79?), but there's nothing linking him to Somers Town particularly, and no mention of it on his page. 82.108.13.197 16:25, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] The One and Only
Hi I think you created the page "The One and Only (film)" on 27th Feb? I had in fact created a page of this film on 24th Feb....any chance you could merge the pages? We seem to have information about the film that could be used in one longer article. I welcome your views.Luckyles 07:20, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
- Solved - I included most of the stuff from your article which added to my article, which is in wiki format (except the quote section - lots of debate about those!), and made your page a disambiguation page. You had a number of nice pieces in your article, but have a look how the page is technically constructed - may be use its format as a basis on which to create others articles on other films you notice we are missing here. The only missing items from your article was the categorisation, which is very important as we are an encyclopaedia. Keep up your great work, and if you need some help - please, just ask! With Best Regards, --Ian 22:25, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
- Hi - Many thanks for merging the article. I am still a bit of a novice at starting new articles, so I really appreciate the work you've done. Should I go to a link for help in wikifying an article? Anyway, many thanks for your help on this - Luckyles 11:45, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

- Honestly, the best way to learn is to edit! You can find lots of useful links on the first message on your talk page on wiki rules and aids. However, they only convey technical format and take you so far - creating a good article is as much doing as it is the technical standards. So I suggest, if you want to write a new article, firstly look for a good/great article on a similar subject/in the same area, and use that as a template to create your new article around. Create a stub page for your new article, and create it first there - then you can play with it as much as you want! When you are happy, then publish to the main encyclopedia. If you want to help me improve the article on actor Edward Woodward, then have an edit of the stub page in my personal stubs area. If you have any further questions, please come back to me.

[edit] Rebecca
Thanks for the feedback. Your knowledge of the book is obviously better than mine. It's a long time since I read the book or saw the movie. I was pretty sure that in the movie he was called Max by just about everyone (except Mrs Danvers, of course), which may have been a bit of licence on the part of the scriptwriters. Feel free to change my edits. Cheers JackofOz 21:36, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
