Snippy comment

Someone who can't be sure whether something is true or not can't do more than request references. - Denimadept (talk) 19:23, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Or ask on talk. Or do a quick search on Google, BBC News, the bridge's official website... Okay I don't expect you to check for yourself every time, but it's becoming an all-too-common getout to just tag-and-forget. Erath (talk) 19:39, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Flatwater Racing World Championships renaming

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. Jeni ^(talk) 14:29, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. I don't get involved in Wikipedia's politics and backroom dealings anymore - the aforementioned discussion that I started being exhibit A in why not - but I appreciate the notice. Erath (talk) 15:32, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
