What’s the problem?

It (1) was meant to be constructive.

and I still think it is.

It (2) was not a test edit.

and I want it back!

The first instance was a case of breaking up a perfectly fine paragraph of text up into a list, which didn't need to be done. Secondly, the talk page was left with just part of a new section, which thus looked messy and incomplete. I fully appreciate your intentions were good, but both edits damaged both article and talkpage. Orphan Wiki 13:50, 12 August 2018 (UTC)

Talk page looks complete to me (on iPhone). Maybe the “==“ stuffs things up (for you): I added that because the references looked like they were part of my item. Why don’t you restore it and make it look the way you want? MBG02 (talk) 11:07, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

I have done already. That's why it looks complete. Orphan Wiki 11:25, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

Hi, thank you for the message on my talk page

I have a question to ask you: Do you think a new article about this (Link 1link 2) could be created ?

--MatterScreech (talk) 23:52, 12 August 2018 (UTC)

Hi MatterScreech, hope you're well. If you think there is enough information to warrant a new article being created, then you can give it a go yourself!

Firstly, I would highly recommend reading both Wikipedia:Your first article (which includes a link to the Article Wizard, where you can start working on a proposed article as a draft) and also Wikipedia:Article development, which explains the stages which form part of the creation of a decent article.

Always make sure the article is not written as an advert, but something you would expect to read in an encyclopedia you picked up off a book shelf. Orphan Wiki 13:33, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

Puritans under King James

Greetings there. I wish you would please not revert things back on this article without asking. The article is clearly on the Puritans under King James. And I have given their views as well as the Anglican view when they differed. There was clearly no bias in the observation. I clearly state what the Puritans held. Would you like me to quote them on the subject? I appreciate that you are an avid wikipedia user and author, but you don't know the subject here at all. So please don't start a revision war. I will do my best to keep to historical observations and placing their views in the proper context, as I always do. There was nothing wrong with what I stated.

This was the edit which was flagged. "...universally recognized as the greatest playwright and literary author that has ever lived." Please refer to WP:NPOV. Orphan Wiki 21:55, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

Puritans under King James

Greetings. The additions that I have made to the article on the Puritans under King James is fairly common knowledge at the Doctor's level in history or theology. I think you can see the article now has a great deal more historical clarity and information than from before, whether you agree with the Puritans or not. I have also included in the edits the Anglican view and many aspects of King James own personal convictions, which only a very few historians like myself know. I hope to add citations in the near future, as I have time, from many of the original source documents as well as from a wide array of historical scholarship on the subject of the Puritans. I teach the subject at the Collegiate and Seminary level and am one of the leading Puritan scholars in the U.S. with a library on the larger on the subject than Berkeley and Stanford combined, where I received several undergraduate degrees.
