Proposed deletion of Carlton Kirby

edit
 

The article Carlton Kirby has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Bisswajit 16:52, 26 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Kings School

edit

Hi, Just wanted to apologize for reverting you days ago - Judging by the schools website they do indeed go by "Kings Rochester", Sounds awful but meh guess it could be worse I suppose  ,
Thanks & Happy Editing :) –Davey2010Talk 23:01, 17 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

I'm just about to revert you I'm afraid. Back in February this was discussed between Davey2010 and myself on his talk page, see User_talk:Davey2010/Archive_2015#King.27s_Rochester. In essence, an encyclopedia needs to stick to correct formal names, not a PR tag designed for news reports. Martin of Sheffield (talk) 14:42, 19 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Discospinster. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to The Beatles— because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ... discospinster talk 14:04, 19 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

  Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Ezra Koenig, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Sundayclose (talk) 14:26, 19 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
