Please do not add or change content, as you did at Marshall, Illinois, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 02:51, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

• Hello again. I've added a welcome message to the top of this page. I noticed that every one of the edits you have made has been reverted by another editor. For that reason, please take advantage of some of the information about editing which you will find on the help links before you continue editing. Thanks.

Hi Smileyroseme. Can you point me in the direction of the section you wish to respond to so I can attempt to advise. (You can reply to this section by clicking the edit link at the top of this section and posting your comment below this one. Amortias (T)(C) 17:10, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

In general, discussions are held on talk pages, either of articles or of users. Such talk pages are structured into sections (on this talk page, "Welcome!", "July 2015" and "Help me!". Each section comes with a separate "Edit" link that will allow you to edit only that section and to reply to or comment on that discussion. If you reply to a specific user and want them to be notified of your reply, it helps to add {{reply to|Username}} to the beginning of the reply (with "Username" replaced by that user's user name, of course). Please also remember to sign messages you leave on talk pages (as opposed to edits to articles) with four tildes (~~~~). That will automatically be expanded into a signature that contains links to your user page and your talk page as well as a timestamp. Huon (talk) 17:32, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
