As a member of the WP:Wc, I'll be glad to lend you a hand should you have a 'how to' or procedural query as well. Feel free to get me about any little thing. Best regards // FrankB 05:39, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

I will see what I can do. JodyB _talk 22:08, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

You forgot to close your reference link <no-wiki> </ref> </no-wiki>. The slash must be there in the closing tag. I would encourage you to read WP:CITE#HOW. Let me know if you need more help.

RBD

Hi, Dr. Bastedo; I hope this message finds you well. I noticed that you are responding to some talk page messages at the RBD article that are many many years old. As it is unlikely that the people who originally posted those questions will see your answers, and since the article has been considerably re-written since, I have archived the old sections. I am sorry to hear that RBD is affecting you, as it can be quite trying. Please feel free to stop by my talk page and chat any time you wish! Regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 23:45, 14 January 2020 (UTC)

If the submitted query is now considered old and irrelevant, should it not have been "put out to pasture"?

Perhaps my insights would be useful someplace in the Wiki essay, as I myself worked/ researched inside the Geriatrics/ Gerontology department of the University of Maryland School of Medicine in downtown Baltimore decades ago.

Dr.Bastedo (talk) 23:12, 19 January 2020 (UTC)

It is so unfortunate, but Wikipedia can’t use unpublished personal stories. I hope the reliable sources in our articles do a good job of conveying the information readers will need. Information about RBD seems to be growing exponentially! Best regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 23:27, 19 January 2020 (UTC)
