Hi, Camboxer, and welcome to Wikipedia! From the quality of your contributions, I'd guess you've probably been here awhile - if not, I hope you choose to stay. I'd particularly like to thank you for your contributions to the article on Peter Handford; I was really hoping somebody would pick it up and make a real article of it, and now - thanks to you - it's on its way. Thanks!

Hello Camboxer! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 140 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag.

A tag has been placed on 2011 in archaeology requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. →♠Gƒoley↔Four♣← 19:32, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Spiritofstgeorge recently edited Template:England year nav, removing the heading "Years in the Kingdom of England (927–1706)", adding redlinks to years past 1706, and going on to create new pages at 1707 in England and 1708 in England. At this edit the links from 1706 in England to 1707 in Great Britain and 1708 in Great Britain were altered to point to the new pages instead. I have reverted the changes to the template and 1706 in England and I am proposing that these new "England" pages should be merged to 1707 in Great Britain and 1708 in Great Britain, although so far as I can make out the content of both has simply been copied from those pages, so there may be nothing to merge. I am not sure where this is intended to lead and fear there could be an awful lot of disruption and duplication. Moonraker (talk) 23:54, 15 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your edits; however, you are changing valid dates in citations to invalid ones by using |month=. That parameter has been deprecated, so where the citation shows |date=November 2012, that is correct. As an example, you changed the 1882 in the United Kingdom article from:

• {{cite journal|first=Alan|last=McEwen|title=Death and Destruction: the collapse of Newlands Mill chimney|journal=Vintage Spirit|issue=124 |pages=60–3 |date=November 2012}}

McEwen, Alan (November 2012). "Death and Destruction: the collapse of Newlands Mill chimney". Vintage Spirit (124): 60–3. to:

• {{cite journal|first=Alan|last=McEwen|title=Death and Destruction: the collapse of Newlands Mill chimney|journal=Vintage Spirit|issue=124|pages=60–3|month=November|year=2012}}

McEwen, Alan (2012). "Death and Destruction: the collapse of Newlands Mill chimney". Vintage Spirit (124): 60–3. {{cite journal}}: Unknown parameter |month= ignored (help)

As you can see, your change resulted in an error being displayed. It also dumped the page into a cleanup category with about 23,000 other pages. (So you're not alone.) Just a friendly "heads-up" to avoid these errors in the future. Thanks.—D'Ranged 1 ^VTalk 05:16, 29 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I just realized that unless you have error messages turned on in your css; you wouldn't see an error message. That's stupid, imo.

Hello. I have noticed you have changed the tense from Simple Past to Simple Present in the article "1949". It was only one word ("was" → "is"), but that means you are among the ones who understand why we use Simple Present.

In the article "1962" to describe events editors use both tenses. And I have to admit that using both tenses does not look good to me. When I corrected events so they were described in the Simple Present Tense, my edits were reverted. What do you think about that? Radosław Wiśniewski (talk) 11:14, 14 October 2015 (UTC)Radosław Wiśniewski[reply]

• Present tense seems to be the accepted convention for "year" articles, and my many previous corrections in these articles have not been questioned. A few of the articles are entirely in the past tense; in those cases I leave them alone. I agree a mixture of tenses in the same article looks bad.

Hi Camboxer. Just wanted to let you know that I've had to remove some images of book covers, etc. which you've been adding to various articles such as 1951 in literature because they were non-free images and thus should not be used as such per WP:NFCCE and WP:NFLISTS. For reference, it's generally only considered acceptable for non-free cover art to be used in a stand-alone article about the work itself per WP:NFC#cite note-2. Not every image found on Wikipedia is freely licensed and it's a good idea to check whether an image is non-free before adding it to any articles because each usage of non-free content must satisfy all ten non-free content criteria to comply with relevant Wikipedia policy. -- Marchjuly (talk) 15:04, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You just revised the Voorspoed entry on List of shipwrecks in 1901. Unfortunately it is now self-contradictory (as is the Wrecksite source). 7 March was indeed the date of the grounding (The Times, London 8 March, on voyage Cardiff for Brazil with coal and machinery, though wrongly described as a schooner), so that cannot be the date of her later loss on another voyage. I have found that she was repaired at Falmouth, sold to Liverpool owners and renamed Titania. It was then that she went missing, but have not yet found any date (it may not have been in 1901). I think that the Voorspoed entry should be deleted, but didn't want to just do that with limited explanation. Davidships (talk) 13:17, 6 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Found it now. Didn't disappear at all. Titania was wrecked 16/11/1901 at Trepassey, Newfoundland (Evening Telegram, St John's Nfld, 18/11/1901). Definitely the right ship as tonnage and owner match. I'll move it and amend. Davidships (talk) 13:43, 6 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Camboxer. I recently discovered that the 'YYYY in science' series goes all the way back to 1500 ... and from the history you were instrumental in making that happen. These pages will be very useful to me personally, and I'd like to pay it forward by helping contribute to them. I have a few structural changes I'd like to suggest ... but want to reach consensus first. Where is the best place to have that discussion (I'm a novice at editing wiki pages, but willing to learn and contribute)? I was thinking Wikipedia:WikiProject_Years_in_science but that appears defunct (do you know why so? could we revive it?).

A few things I'd like to do:

• The format of pages before 2007 is organized by topic, those after 2007 are organized by month, and 2007 itself is an intermediary form. Since the by-month format appears to be what is advocated by the Wikipedia:WikiProject_Years I was planning on converting all of the pages before 2008 to that form (I have code that automates the process if you and others agree that is the right path forward). An example of what I'm proposing (for 2006), can be found in my sandbox.
• Get some buy-in around adding an optional "branch of science" annotation to each entry (for years after 2007). My automation code for converting years before 2007 knows which "branch of science" section each entry came from, and adds a parenthetical link to each entry so that people know which branch of science the entry refers to (see my sandbox). I'd like to start adding similar annotations for 2007 onward.
• Some cleanup of the pages after 2007 around consistency of format (do we use "January 1" or "1 January", etc.

Totally open to hearing feedback, reasons why the above isn't a good idea (or why it is a good idea), other areas where I can contribute to these pages, etc.

You have added Betty Tebbs to the "Notable people" section of Bury. She was not from Bury or, at least, not that one. You might argue that she was from Metropolitan Borough of Bury but you'd be safer adding her to the relevant section of Prestwich and leaving her in the broad-brush List of people from Bury. Local folks get rather fed up of Bury subsuming its constituent towns when it comes to claiming kudos or apportioning funds etc: quick to take, slow to give. - Sitush (talk) 18:45, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, the claim about the Holborn Viaduct power station here does not seem to be correct as written. "the world's first coal-fired public electricity generating station" would be the Brush arc lighting systems of 1878-1880[page 177[2][3], maybe even before that depending on how the Yablochkov lamps were powered. Edison was known for building the first electric power "utilities" (selling incandescent based electric lighting for indoor domestic use - sold to the public... as in "individual customers") and I see claims Holborn Viaduct was the first Edison station in that format to come on-line.... that may be what the source is getting at. Probably needs a better source all round. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 17:04, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please remember always to give the source for content you add to the encyclopedia - you must have been looking at a list of the shortlisted Costa Book Award titles on a website or in a printed publication, so it would have been appropriate to add it while you updated the authors' articles, to save other editors from having to find the source to improve the articles.

For about a year, I have been adding a comment whenever I'm altering your formatting of entries with brackets (parentheses) in them, but you seem not to notice. Where the whole content of a pair of brackets is in italics, then the bracket signs should also be in italics. Where the content is mixed, the bracket signs can stay upright. Here are two examples from 1900 in literature:

• Octave Mirbeau – The Diary of a Chambermaid (Le Journal d'une femme de chambre) – here the brackets round the French title are italic.
• Arthur Schnitzler – La Ronde (German: Reigen; privately printed) – here the content is mixed and the brackets can stay upright.

Hi. I've removed your addition "16 January – First BBC regional radio broadcast from Stoke-on-Trent in England (Paul Brittain playing the piano)" because (1) the Stoke-on-Trent station (6ST) was not on the air on that date (it operated separately only between 1924 and 1928; its wavelength then being used to relay the Manchester, later Northern Regional, Programme until May 1931) and (2) I can find no evidence of the pianist Paul Brittain broadcasting from any station on that date. -- Picapica (talk) 10:11, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also.

If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Danners430 (talk) 14:24, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
