Happy New Year, Eagleash!

(Charles R. Knight, 1922)

Thank you for all you did for this project in 2016, Eagleash. May your house be safe, and may you and those privileged with your company enjoy good health in a Happy New Year 2017!

Team nicknames

Personally, I think team nicknames should be avoided wherever possible in the body of an article - partly because we are an encyclopedia, and partly because not every reader will be familiar with the nicknames. "John Smith began his career with Arsenal and made his debut for the Gunners on 2 January 2017" could easily cause confusion! GiantSnowman 14:58, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

spider bite vandalism

Hi, thanks for spotting this. I have ascertained the source of the problem. I used a shared computer to make the edit and discovered that some droll person had been playing with the firefox word replace function, thus automatically changing words on the page prior to submission. Very difficult to spot. I will check for this sort of thing when using a strange computer terminal in future. Thanks again.Edaham (talk) 06:56, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

Difficulty in adding a Wikipedia Commons image to my article

Hi I have been trying to upload a Wikipedia Commons photo of Newgate prison onto my article ( Lancelot Cooper) which you are editing but I do not understand the instructions although i have attempted to do this several times. There is one jpg file with the heading Newgate West View by George Shepherd. I wonder if you could kindly help. Thanks! Alantaylor17 (talk) 13:21, 8 February 2017 (UTC)

@Alantaylor17: Hello, I have added an image I found on commons...I think its the right one. I have put it close to the mention of Newgate. If you want to move it, copy the whole thing to your preferred location, but don't put it at the top of the page or top left of a section. Eagleash (talk) 13:47, 8 February 2017 (UTC)
