[edit] Donnachadh McCarthy
Hey Mark, spotted the article on Donnachadh McCarthy.
This article is no-where near the standard required for Wiki. Below is the Welcome template, you may need to study some of the ways articles here are written; and why some biographies are deleted.
Welcome to Wiki - I'm something of an addict to the place and know how enthusiastic people are to get going, but I also know what can be jumped upon by those eager to critise the newbies, so I thought I'd give you these pointers!
Enjoy your time at Wiki - if I can help tidy up the article, I'm more than willing to help =)

[edit] Camberwell
Mark - hey, spotted the edits you are making on the Camberwell article. Wherever possible, please remember to put an edit summary in the box - "Adding names" or "Removing content and tidying paragraphs" etc. This just helps those who monitor recent changes to know what's going on. It looks suspicious when a lot of changes go through "blank", as it were...
Incidentally, looking at what you have contributed so far, I guess you may find List of Parliamentary constituencies in Greater London of interest.

[edit] Hello
Hi Mark, we met last night at the SE5 meeting. You really do show up everywhere don't you!? I have done some work on the Maudsley Hospital and Institute of Psychiatry articles if you'd like to check those out. Cheers, --PaulWicks 13:50, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
