[edit]  ? Jadeite on Somerset Levels

Hi, Thanks for your extensive edits to Somerset Levels. Do you know if the axe was Jadeite? Also I see you've added lots of references but can you indicate which pieces come from which sources - I can help with the referencing format if you need it?— Rod talk 12:39, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] PCT

Adresia, if you want to discuss the PCT, do so, at the Paleolithic Continuity Theory article, or, if you must, at the Proto-Indo-European Urheimat hypotheses article, but please stop inserting this stuff at Indo-European languages: see WP:UNDUE. dab (𒁳) 10:32, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sources

Have you got any sources for the information that you added to History of the Royal Navy? Per Wikipedia:Verifiability, every addition needs sourcing. As it is, I know the article needs work and a lot more sources, but all the same, sources please? Woody (talk) 13:32, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to History of the Royal Navy. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources please take this opportunity to add your original reference to the article. Contact me if you need assistance adding references. Thank you.

Also, do you not think that the page is getting a bit top-heavy. Whilst the information is useful, I think it is placing undue emphasis on the Anglo-Saxon and pre-saxon periods, where actually there wasn't a Navy. The page is already getting long and I think some of the information above the "The beginnings of an organised navy, 1485–1642" and particularly the "Norman" should be trimmed.

[edit] Hill forts in Somerset

Thanks for your comments at Category talk:Hill forts in Somerset. I've responded on that talk page - do you have enough information from WP:RS that could be used to start the missing articles?— Rod talk 16:15, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

I've noticed some of your contributions, specifically your efforts in adding information on Iron Age hillforts. It's a good effort on a subject not well enough covered on wikipedia. If you intend to further contribute to wikipedia, which I sincerely hope you do, it might be worth reading up on WP:V, especially how to use citation templates and filling in the necessary fields; this allows the reader, especially an academic doing research, to see where each piece of information has come from. It's not so important for small articles, but becomes more important for longer articles. A useful source is pastscape, it's particularly useful for finding out whether a site has Scheduled Monument status. Happy editing. Nev1 (talk) 15:33, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
