Welcome to Wikipedia!

edit

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, such as the ones you made to C. B. Fry. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages you might like to see:

You are welcome to continue editing without logging in, but many editors recommend that you create an account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits such as the ability to create articles. For a full outline and explanation of the benefits that come with creating an account, please see this page. If you edit without a username, your IP address (86.165.80.125) is used to identify you instead.

In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your comments on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place {{helpme}} before the question on this page. Again, welcome! -- Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 16:05, 23 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

I see that you and various unregistered users have been adding information to this article. Thanks for that. Unfortunately, the referencing style you have used is rather messy and inconsistent with the original article. Once you have gone as far as you can (or want) with the article, I will happily tidy it up so it all looks OK again. Perhaps you can drop me a note when you have added what you want from the Wilton book (of which I have a copy). Best wishes. -- Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 16:08, 23 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

The references are still a complete shambles. Several are simply bare URLs; the books are not properly cited using the citebook template; you should use the sfn citation style as per reference #2; you should avoid repeating the full book details so many times. I did offer to help but you and your multiple URL helpers have not had the decency to respond. -- Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 17:28, 23 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the reply. It will probably be after Christmas before I can look at this in detail. have a good one. -- Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 18:25, 23 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
