[edit] Regarding your addition of crimes to various articles

Thank you for adding to Wikipedia, but the murders that you have added to various articles are probably not notable enough for inclusion on Wikipedia. Unfortunately, these murders, while certainly a sad event, are not notable enough for inclusion unless they have had national coverage. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 19:43, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

If you have an interest in documenting criminal activity, you might want to join Wikipedia:WikiProject Crime and Criminal Biography or Wikipedia:WikiProject British crime. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 19:49, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Arthur Turner

Hi, I was wondering if you could supply a source for your quote from Arthur Turner which you recently added to his article. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 10:22, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thorns Primary School

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Thorns Primary School, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Thorns Primary School. —Noah 15:53, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Link tricks

Hi Fredd. I noticed that you expanded out some wikilinks using the pipe (|). Actually, this isn't necessary - the softawre does the same thing automatically without the pipe. So, for example [[throne]]s appears as thrones, and we don't need to type [[throne|thrones]]. Hope this helps! JPD (talk) 23:26, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Ford Motor Company-related contribiutons

Hi! I've noticed some edits you've made in articles about Ford's vehicles, including Ford Focus and Ford Mondeo. The information included are very specific and I'd be grateful if you could maybe direct me to sources you use - I'm currently trying to write brand new and as featured as possible article about Mondeo on pl.wiki (it's going slow and you can see the amount of information here) and sources regarding the details of older generations are quite had to get.

Thanks in advance, Ṃäģģöṭ · ↑¿₡₴៛↓ 19:58, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
