Hi LauraJamieson! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. |
template:EduBase
Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. I see you modified the EduBase template to point at each school's performance tables table. The trouble is that this template says EduBase and it was pointing at a valid EduBase record. I've created Template:DfE performance tables to point at that page, and added it to Template:infobox UK school – I hope that does what you wanted. I'll be changing EduBase back.

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. We always appreciate when users upload new images. However, it appears that one or more of the images you have recently uploaded or added to a page, specifically User:LauraJamieson/RCC, may fail our non-free image policy.

Orphaned non-free image File:Rushden Academy Logo.png
Thanks for uploading File:Rushden Academy Logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:50, 11 October 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to New Model Army (band) may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Disambiguation link notification for January 18
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited New Model Army (band), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Reichstag and Mark Feltham. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Suggestions on threading
Hi -- I saw you removed the Sinebot signature from the GA. One thing you might consider is signing the threaded replies; see here for an example of a FAC review with signatures. Typically the way it works is the first reviewer puts their comments in a bullet list without individual signatures, and every interspersed comment after that is signed. It's not very important when there are only two participants in a conversation, but I think it does help readability, so it's something you might want to do.
I also noticed that you're indenting in a non-standard way. (This is actually so common among even the most experienced Wikipedians that perhaps I shouldn't call it non-standard!) To indent after some else's comment, you repeat whatever they did, and then put in a colon if you want a simple indent, an asterisk if you want a bullet, and a hashmark if you want a number. So if you're commenting inside a bullet list, with "*" as the prefix for each line, you'd put "**" for an indented bullet, and "*:" for a simple indent from the bullet. Not following these rules sometimes works, and sometimes doesn't. Occasionally you'll see conversation with a bizarre indent with two bullets on the same line; if you look at the underlying wikitext you'll always see they did something to break the indent rules.
I hope this is useful. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 12:59, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

Aarhus
I don't know why you subscribe to the theory that the edits were by a banned user when no evidence was proffered. Again, why do you agree with what Elockid wrote? He wrote
Ferries administered by Danish ferry company Mols-Linien transports passengers and motorvehicles between Aarhus and Sjaellands Odde on Zealand. The ferries comprises HSC KatExprerss 1 and HSC KatExpress 2
Can't you see that that has been written by someone who is totally illiterate? The article is now a mishmash of English and American spellings. Per Manual of Style, spellings must be consistent within an article. 86.177.8.58 (talk) 11:07, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
There's another obvious error - reference 218 is flagged "Missing or empty title". It should read as follows:
All the best, 86.177.8.58 (talk) 14:37, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
- Good news service. I just this moment found out that Theresa is going to be our next prime minister. Another mistake by Elockid on this article is where he wrote
Aagard Clinic, established in 2004, is another private fertility and gynecology clinic which since 2004 has undertaken fertility treatments that has resulted in 1550 births.
There's little point in continuing the protection as it just prevents editors from improving it. It might be an idea to ask at RfPP for the protection to come off. There's no need to consult with the protecting administrator as he's no longer active. 92.8.218.239 (talk) 17:40, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
I'm going to rv your undo, let's take it to the article talk page if you have a problem ok? Yes, it is sourced to a blog, an xfinity-tv blog, an interview with Henry.TeeVeeed (talk) 21:04, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
