John; thanks for the welcome, and the correction about minor edits- I'll spend a bit of time on the links you've posted to try to avoid further mistakes.

Thanks

Hi Gravuritas. This was a nice addition and clarification to Mimeograph. Thanks! Herostratus (talk) 15:34, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

Er, hi, Herostratus (good name)- thanks for the thanks. As a new editor I've had some constructive criticism and someone spoiling for a fight, but mostly a sort of editing into the blue yonder where you wonder whether anybody's reading it! I've just had a look around WP and found the top 100 pages etc- do you know whether there is way of finding the viewing figures for e.g. Mimeograph, for instance, or whether it's just you and me that's seen it?

West Lothian question

Please revert what you have added to West Lothian question, per WP:BRD guidelines. Happy to discuss it on the talk page.

The article is not comparing NI to Scotland. It is suggesting that a possible solution to the West Lothian question would be to reduce the Scottish representation at Westminster to that below the standard ratio of MPs compared with the rest of the UK, as had happened previously in NI. It is suggesting that if the NI example was followed, Scotland would have below the standard ratio. The fact that Scotland currently has a higher ratio is not the point.

Besides that, the section is currently entirely uncited, so combining unsourced facts like this begins to look very like original synthesis. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 20:18, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

Civility

Please read WP:Civility, we can discuss things without "utter twerp" or such rather inflammatory comments. Thanks, Vsmith (talk) 22:49, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
