January 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add content (particularly if you change facts and figures), as you have to the article Heathland School, please cite a reliable source for the content you're adding or changing. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Greetings, and I hope I can be a big help to you. You're certainly on the right track, wanting to provide source material for your edits. You would be correct that the school's own website might be a bit too biased for certain things, but it does make a good external link for the article. You do mention some history of the school, and the school's website might be acceptable for that, but outside info from third-party sources would be better.

A good independent source for information might be a Department/Ministry of Education website set up by the national government. (Or maybe you could educate me on something ... what is an Ofsted report? It could well be a good source, if I knew what it was.) It could provide some additional info that would work well in this article.

If you could, tell me about some other articles you edit, or articles you would like to edit; that way, I can come up with some suggestions to keep you growing as an editor. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 20:09, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Talkback

Hello, Chindit96. You have new messages at McDoobAU93's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

This may be a new item to you ... it's a Talkback. It says that someone replied to your message on their talk page, and provides a link to take you right there. After you've seen it, you can keep or delete it at will; the tab tells you just how to do it. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 22:48, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock Request

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Chindit96 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I'm just trying to categorise socks.

Decline reason:

Should be easy; you have more than most editors. --Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 22:17, 8 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Hey, I'm not quite sure what you mean by that, please can you elaborate? Thanks Chindit96 (talk) 22:58, 8 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am pretty sure that you are, but for the sake of other editors here you are blocked as one of the socks of Camponhoyle. The blocking admin is Reaper Eternal; if you really want to argue the point take it up with him. A blocked account can still use e-mail. --Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 11:34, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
