Welcome!

Hello, Bearfoot, Welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at the Guide to layout, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.
Additional tips:
Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
  • Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
  • You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
  • If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language
  • Full details on Wikipedia style can be found in the Manual of Style.
Happy editing!

[edit] Anthony Blunt

The word 'traitor' seems heavily loaded with political and moral judgement, rather than being a neutral assessment of fact, as 'spy' is. Would you perhaps explain your insistence on 'traitor'? Xn4 20:37, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

It doesn't worry me. Use 'spy' if you like. It sounds so much more romantic! Bearfoot

Thanks, Bearfoot. I'll revert it. By the way, the easy way to sign your name is with four of these symbols ~ in a straight row - the system then adds your name and the time and date Xn4 13:17, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Marlborough college

Thankyou for reverting my edit. I was going through all those schools which use the infobox and adding in a few newly added parameters, and edited the bishop links without thinking. Anyway, thanks very much for putting it right so quickly. (chgallen 20:04, 9 June 2007 (UTC))

Court architecture? What do you call the North block along the Bath Road if not mock Tudor? I agree that there is Georgian too. Dabbler 23:34, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

You're having me on p)? See e.g. Tudorbethan architecture for examples of mock tudor half-timbering. I don't recall MC having any such examples. Bearfoot

OK so what do you call that North block? It looks like Tudor Hampton Court to me and Hampton Court doesn't have a single half timbered wall. See Tudor style architecture. Dabbler 00:06, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
A Google of Mock Tudor suggests that the term implies half-timbering, but if you feel otherwise, I don't really care one way or the other.Bearfoot 07:20, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
