[edit] Schoolhouse Rock

Hi, Got Milked! I've reverted your changes to Schoolhouse Rock! because we don't link every instance of a name in an article. Too many links takes away from the specialness! Though seriously, there's a manual of style for when to link. Take a look at MOS:LINK when you get a chance. Thanks for your work, and happy editing! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 06:30, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Lin Zexu

Hi Got Milked. I'm reverting the section you added to First Opium War. There are two reasons. First, it is not properly cited (the website you've cited does not say most of what you've added to the section). Second, if you do have a source for the reverence of Lin Zexu (I don't doubt this) that should probably go in the Lin Zexu article or, at best, somewhere in the consequences of the opium war. It does not warrant a section on its own in this article. Please note that I don't doubt the information you have added. My concern is that this is not the appropriate place and that it is not properly cited. --Regents Park (moult with my mallards) 12:21, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Much better. :-) BTW, Maurice Collis, in his book, Foreign mud, also says a lot about Lin Zexu. Apparently he was already well known because of his work cleaning up corruption in the north (Manchuria, I think). A very interesting man. --Regents Park (moult with my mallards) 21:40, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

I notice you have the same issue in the Opium Wars article. Could you go ahead and make the same changes in that article as well? Thanks! --Regents Park (moult with my mallards) 02:03, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
