Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits.

  Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to Kate Blackwell (barrister). To state that Blackwell "toured with the [National Youth Theatre] to the Moscow Arts Theatre in 1989" requires a source that states this unambiguously; you have only offered a source which says a particular play was performed in Moscow, a play which we still have no source for Blackwell appearing in. McGeddon (talk) 13:58, 25 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your comments however there is little or nothing controversial about it. The source provided describes how it was unusual and revolutionary for the NYT to go to Moscow. Despite there being no digital reference of the full cast list (mainly due to how long ago it was); Blackwell was a member of the cast that toured. It does not change the tenner of the entire entry but it definitely an interesting extra part to her story. (Christopherlockwood1972 (talk) 14:05, 25 April 2016 (UTC))Reply
You're welcome to cite a non-digital source if one exists. Wikipedia articles - especially biographies - should be clearly sourced rather than asking readers to simply trust whichever editor added a statement. --McGeddon (talk) 14:56, 25 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Hello! Thank you for your recent contributions to Kate Blackwell (barrister). I did have one note for you. I am working on a maintenance project to clean up Category:Pages using infoboxes with thumbnail images. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!!
