My name is Derek Dore. I have a PhD in Medieval European History. I hope to contribute articles that will enlighten Wikipedians and internet users in the subject of Medieval history, my particular interest is English Medieval history.

Scorraging

Before you go posting your nonsensical rants on my talk page, do me a favor and use the proper formatting and etiquette. Furthermore, if you have a problem with the tag I placed, put a hangon tag on the article and make your case for its retention. My research finds no such term and no such practice. Given that the article you wrote had no references and was poorly-written, I am skeptical of its validity. ---Charles 03:15, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide sources, see WP:V. If your sources are manuscripts in the Bodleian Library, then you need to read WP:OR. Cheers, Mak (talk) 03:18, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I do not consider what I have written on your user page as a rant or indeed nonsensical. My interest in my subject does not make me good at formatting. Etiquette is another story and I apologise if I have in some way been rude. I do not consider what I have written to be poor but I will happily admit I have Dyslexia and that my formatting etc may not be to your standard.

For what it's worth, of the three sources he did provide, two are bibliographies, and one does not mention scorraging. Adam Bishop 19:39, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
