Hello,
You asked at the help desk for assistance in adding references. In response to that, I added headings per Wikipedia's manual of style (please read that page) together with various other edits in line with MoS. However, your edit here seems to have undone the changes I made and placed the draft back in a condition not complying with MoS that it was in before I tried to assist you. Formatted headings have disappeared, and incorrect capitalisations of occupations etc. and hyphens (not ndashes) in date ranges etc. restored, together with other changes. Was this your intention, or did you edit an old version of the page without meaning to? That will have the effect of deleting any intervening changes. If you need further help in developing the draft, please ask at the help desk or place {{help me}}
on your talk page and a volunteer will contact you. Or you can ask me at my TP! :) Eagleash (talk) 21:08, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
- Hi :)
I will take a look at the manual, thank you! In regards to changes being made, I wasn't aware that you made any changes? I haven't edited the article for a few days up until just this morning so I'm a little confused about what you're trying to say! Maybe you could help me and explain?
Thanks :) Elliepupwork1996 (talk) 09:03, 12 October 2017 (UTC)
- Just another additional question: Where do I find the latest draft? Elliepupwork1996 (talk) 09:08, 12 October 2017 (UTC)
- Hello, It looks as if you've found the draft as you've edited it recently. Link is Draft:William Kintish. I had made edits to the page (after your post at the help desk) which you can find here, here and here. Please have a quick look at those edits and see what was changed. Your edit here seems to have changed most of what I did back again! However, the draft is now looking a bit better and I have made some other minor fixes with this edit. I also replied to your question at the help desk...there are a couple of other links there you should 'gen-up' on but here they are again....WP:REFB for a guide to adding references and WP:RS for what is a reliable source. Happy editing. Eagleash (talk) 09:47, 12 October 2017 (UTC)
- A couple of notes. First, personal correspondence isn't accepted here. This isn't saying that you did something wrong; our project scope is simply to write an encyclopedia based on published sources (see WP:OR). One of the first messages anyone left for me when I joined Wikipedia was a note about the same thing — I'd added something based on personal correspondence. I'm not getting on you :-) Secondly, we typically format publications as a bulleted list (I've done this for you); having them as prose isn't normal, so someone reading a Wikipedia article will be expecting them as a list.

- Thank you! The changes look great. However, did you also take out the "William Kintish LTD" section which talks about his company? If so, how come?
File permission problem with File:Will Kintish.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Will Kintish.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.
If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
- make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Train2104 (t • c) 23:54, 12 October 2017 (UTC)
