Hi Elise
I am sorry to have caused you offense or distress.
It was an error on my part. I was under the impression that I was removing spurious text from an article. I had not realised at the time that it was a talk page.
You will be pleased to know that the report on the IP address talk page will not be attributed to you user account, so you still have a clean slate.
Also, the post to my talk page was the correct communication method. Thank you.
May I encourage you to be bold and start editing articles, even if it is only to remove graffiti. My advice would be to get started on your own user page. Then, after experimenting in your own private space, you may feel comfortable enough to pick a subject you're comfortable with and see if you can add anything to the articles that relate to the subject. Personally, I found that my love and knowledge of music gave me a subject to get started on.
Have fun.
Regards Richard

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 11:46, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

Fails WP:NEVENT. Turned out to be nothing consequential, the only independent coverage is the Guardian article cited.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
