Thankyou for expanding on the article, there was certainly a lot which I didn't know about the poem (especially the author). --JB Adder | Talk 06:37, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

Paolo Di Canio
[edit]According to Wikipedia:Manual of Style, the date should be inserted in the biographical section. Good work. Attilio.
Eubank
[edit]I am entitled to edit my own article, stop editing it back what it was with all the False info. They are both my articles, so allow me to edit. <Unsigned comment by User:88.106.67.127 Contrib>
- There's no such thing as "your article" and what is the other article you refer to with "both"? In any case, you are pasting in content which is unlinked and contains POV. Feel free to edit the article to improve it but try and avoid pasting in content of dubious quality. Jizz 22:52, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

- I dispute this. My reply here Jizz 15:59, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, its the one in a million case that the bot has major problems with. Don't worry about that warning, it pretty obviously wasn't vandalism, its just that the bot can't tell if you're removing a copyvio or not, sorry about that -- Tawker 17:14, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
[edit]SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 04:48, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
You just reverted a few hours of copy editing and adding of extra info to "revert unlinking"? I'm going to revert my work back pending a much better explanation of why you think it should be removed. cheers, aLii 21:36, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
Ross Davidson's birthplace
[edit]The obit printed in The Independent today confirms Ross was born in Uddingston. The IMDB relies on user-submissions like Wikipedia, so is not *entirely* reliable with it's information, despite how many media organisations seem to treat it as gospel.

The Herald and BBC pieces were just standard reports. The writers have probably gone with the information that's most prevalent (which seems to be Airdrie) because the important thing is to get the article out, not the minute details. For an official obituary though, the papers tend to go more in-depth, making sure they get their facts and figures straight. I've found The Independent's obits to be quite reliable in this respect, using exact names and places. I've used it several times to update things like IMDB pages which unless corrected tend to generalise places of birth to the nearest large(r) town/city.
If you feel adamant that the BBC and The Herald's brief reports are more worthy/reliable though, please feel free to change Ross' entry to read Airdrie. If he was born in Airdrie though, it makes it slightly puzzling why another media source would quote a smaller, more publically obscure location.
