I have read with interest your major edit of the RMS Viceroy of India and although some of your edits are an improvment...Why have you taken out some of the details of interest i.e. "Ayahs" and omitted altogether the incident in Bombay Harbour with the steamship "Warfield". Although you further additions are fine, I have been working on a more detailed version of the ships career which I hope to add to this page soon. Stavros1 17:27, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bad news[edit]

Hew Dalrymple Ross (1779–1868) is not the same person as Hew Dalrymple (1750–1830). Could you revert your changes, please? Choess 03:27, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Date linking[edit]

Hi. Dates should no longer be linked per the guideline changes at WP:MOSNUM. Most dates should be de-linked. Best regards, -- Ssilvers (talk) 16:38, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dunchurch railway station[edit]

Hi Troutsneeze, I see you've worked on Warks articles, railway articles, and the closed stations template. I also notice that 99.5% of your 1,477 live edits are in Article namespace - well done!

I've been editing the Leamington_to_Rugby_line article (you may be interested in a discussion on its talk page BTW) and so I Wikilinked to Dunchurch_railway_station.

A couple of points. Firstly, much of the material in the latter is now covered by the (expanded) former so it may be worth some trimming. Secondly, with respect, there are a few unsourced, ambiguous, speculative statements in Dunchurch_railway_station. I've marked them with the weasel words {{by whom}} tag. I think the article needs work to substantiate those points (with cites) or, at the very least, rewording to avoid the passive voice.

Out of courtesy, I want to give you - as the original editor - a chance to respond before I edit the article as suggested above. Best wishes, Andy F (talk) 10:28, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for getting back to me. Best wishes Andy F (talk) 13:03, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

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.
