Jezzabr
Welcome!
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We as a community are glad to have you and thank you for creating a user account! Here are a few good links for newcomers:
- The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- Merging, redirecting, and renaming pages
- If you're ready for the complete list of Wikipedia documentation, there's also Wikipedia:Topical index.
Yes some of the links appear a bit boring at first, but they are VERY helpful if you ever take the time to read them.
Remember to place any articles you create into a category so we don't get orphans.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, please be sure to sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, or three tildes (~~~) for just your name. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome.

P.S. I like messages :-P
The Honourable Schoolboy edit
Hi, unfortunately I don't understand the following: '("The Honourable...Esq." is an instantly significant social solecism.)' in The Honourable Schoolboy. Could you add some explanation? Thanks! Rich 07:03, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
Neither "The Honourable" nor "Mr." is ever used with "Esquire". One of the impenetrable defences of a social code is its complex unwritten rules: outsiders will egregiously break a rule whose very existence they may never suspect. Other outsiders may be misled, but the insider quietly takes note, giving no indication to the impostor who may think that he "fits in" and has been accepted.
(For example, I have no idea how to send you this response to your query, from which you may immediately see that I am not a true Wikipaede!) Jezza 09:44, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
Good answer, thanks. Now I inkle that much goes on in the book(and Britain)that I don't sense. Rich 11:34, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Good work on case law edit
I like what you've done with it - it's a significant improvement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lawdroid (talk • contribs) 22:31, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
Your recent edit re "Virtual Past Masters" edit
Just a technicallity ... but the entire York Rite does not exist in the UK (the Mark Master degree and Royal Arch degree exist, but are not conferred by the York Rite)... however, the York Rite does exist in other countries, and they do confer the VPM degree. So it isn't just in America. Blueboar (talk) 23:30, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
I must beg to differ. Your "York Rite" exists and is widely worked (but referred to only as "The Rose Croix", after the most usual degree) under a Supreme Council chartered by the US Southern Jurisdiction. However the highest degrees are much more exclusive.
The primacy of the northern city of York, in both the Church of England and English Masonry, was historically a sensitive political lost cause. Jezza (talk) 22:36, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
Cradock edit
Thumbs up to your changes to an important article, congrats. Ericoides (talk) 15:59, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
Chairman edit
I've reverted your recent edits to the Chairman article. The material was good, but some of it put words in the mouth of one of the cited references (Robert's Rules of Order). I think your material would fit into a much-needed new section on "Duties", which might go right before the "Corporate governance" section. The latter is pretty weak, IMHO. I would have tried to put your materials into a Duties section, but thought that you might do a better job of it. If you don't want to do it, I'll try to come back later and have a go at it. Lou Sander (talk) 02:17, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
Christopher Wren GA Nomination edit
I have nominated Christopher Wren for GA status. As you're one of the main editors, would you be willing to help improve the article to meet GA requirements? Thanks, GoldRock23(talk - my page - contribs) 15:40, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
South Moreton edit
Thankyou for your contributions on South Moreton. However, some of your contributions lacked what Wikipedians call neutral point of view and necessary citations. I have therefore reverted some of those that might be considered more contentious and modified some others. I apologise if this seems heavy-handed. Some of the statements that I deleted might be reinstated — but only with the addition of citations that verify them.
Your edit summary that includes the phrase "parish council dysfunctional" may not be advisable either, particularly as edit summaries are not a place where citations can be included for verification or text can be amended afterwards!
The article is still rather short of inline citations, and some of the citations that you have helpfully added give so few details of the articles cited that other users might find it hard to trace them and verify your sources. I generally use templates such as Template:Cite news, Template:Cite book, Template:Cite web and so on, not only to maintain a standard format but also because the parameters serve as a checklist for me to remember all the details that I ought to supply if at all possible.
Please continue to contribute to South Moreton if you can. There is plenty more to say about the village that can be justified as encyclopaedic, so the article deserves development and expansion.
I recognise that St John's church is rarely open for worship, but is it ever open for visitors? I photographed the outside and uploaded a set of photos to Wikimedia, but when I visited I found the church locked so I couldn't photograph the interior. I've added many photos of other parish church interiors to Wikimedia (e.g. Ickford, Rousham, Yarnton etc.), but South Moreton has so far eluded me.

Disambiguation link notification for December 21 edit
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Soho, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Listed and Paul Raymond. 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.
