Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

St. Mary's[edit]

This article was copied from Buckinghamshire: A history of Aylesbury with its borough and hundreds, the hamlet of Walton, and the electoral division, Volume 1' by Robert Gibbs, pp.18 and following, supplemented with material copied from the church website. Although the material in the book is in the public domain (published in 1885(, the website is not. This is not acceptable. For the material copied from the public domain source,exact citation of that source must be given, and exact quotation marks used for the portions copied.

The material copied from the website must be rewritten. It might be possible to get a donation of the material under a free license, according to the exact requirements at WP:DCM, but this is not recommended, as much of it is not suitable for an encyclopedia. It would be better to rewrite.

An encyclopedia article contains material of interest to general readers, not specific changeable material such as the times of services,of interest only to prospective church-goers and visitors. DGG ( talk ) 20:45, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
