Hi Mr WR – here's an unofficial welcome to the world of Wikipedia!

...Should be moved in line with names of articles for other service stations. I don't have the "move" tab at the top of my pages for some reason, so I can't do this myself...

Probably because you're a "very new" user; I think the ability to move pages doesn't kick-in for a few days. So, have made the move in lieu. Best wishes, David Kernow 14:08, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Untitled post from Lucky 6.9

Hi! The problem was, your article wasn't more than a few words long and was little more than an echo of what was already in the title. Sorry to have upset you. Best advice I can give you is to add as much basic information to a new article as possible. Please don't hesitate to ask me for help. - Lucky 6.9 18:55, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Michael Tickner

Mr WR - Hi there, I just stumbled cross the Michael Tickner article. I noticed that it doesn't contain any information that indicates why Tickner should be in an encyclopedia, nor does it verify assertions from reliable sources. I took a look at the external links and Michael appears to be a reasonably successful but unremarkable commercial artist. I was going to mark the article for deletion, but first wanted to give you a chance to let me know if I've missed something. Check out Wikipedia:Notability (people) for guidelines on what is normally required for a person to get an article in Wikipedia. Thanks -Siobhan Hansa 11:48, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for responding. I'm not on a big deletion campaign, and don' know much about what makes an artist notable. I only came across the article because I was diambiguating British, so if he's well known I'll do a bit more searching for sources and info to try and build the article up a bit instead. If I can't find much I'll think about AfDing later. --Siobhan Hansa 20:19, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Carl XVI Gustav

It was a Edit summary typo mistake. I meant to put 'Sept.19' as his coronation date. I noticed my mistake after pressing the 'save' button (should have pressed 'show preview' button first). I'll try to be less careless in the future. GoodDay 17:45, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Haxo (Paris Métro)

Why rename the page to include the accent, when other Paris Metro stations (e.g. Porte des Lilas (Paris Metro) do not? - Superbfc 08:57, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Furthermore, re there are dozens of ghost station articles, so they can't all added to each other as "see also" links; that might be the case, but there are much fewer stations that were built and never used. - Superbfc 20:10, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Service areas AfD

Since you expressed an opinion in the last AfD regarding UK service areas at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Donington Park services, I'd like to inform you of a new AfD discussion which has recently been started by another user at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Norton Canes services (2nd nomination). In the interests of keeping this within the rules regarding canvassing, I am sending this to everyone involved with that original debate, regardless of if they voted keep or delete, or if they appear to be active or inactive.
