Date protocol edit

I am new to this but I note that you have made a change to the Edinburgh Academy page, removing the date reference. Can you tell me if there is a protocol on this? When should I reference a date and when not? (Tithon 22:01, 27 February 2006 (UTC))Reply

Please see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers). The basic gist is that full dates should be linked, but solo year links don't provide any functionality to the encyclopedia and can be eliminated. --Cyde Weys 23:56, 27 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Re: Geological things to do edit

Thanks for your comments - the links on my user page are just a selection of 'gaps' i have come across on my travels - I'm aware that soem of them are out of date in that theyre not redlinks any more, but thanks for sorting the redirects. I just can't seem to concentrate on one area at a time, but I shall get back to geology sooner or later... ::Supergolden:: 09:19, 28 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for February 5 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited James Gordon (bishop of Jarrow), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Charles Ritchie (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi, you are cordially invited to our next ScotWiki meetup.

Its visitor centre offers food, drinks, and WiFi and should give us plenty of room to meet and have a chat after work!

Join the ScotWiki Mailing list!

If you can't attend this meetup, but are interested in possibly attending other Wikimedia events in Scotland, or want to keep track of what's going on in the Scottish World of Wiki, join the ScotWiki Mailing List now!

 

Hopefully see you there, Stinglehammer (talk) 11:27, 2 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of George F Terry edit

 

The article George F Terry has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Doesn't meet WP:BIO or WP:GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Orphaned non-free image File:The last protest singer.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:The last protest singer.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 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:50, 29 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
