Jaime Bergman

has recently changed her name to that of her husband, hence the edit — Preceding unsigned comment added by 160.79.108.178 (talk) 17:16, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to be correct, thanks for clarifying. Widr (talk) 17:20, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

K-tel article

You left me a message about recent edits I'd made to the K-tel article. Most of them were formatting edits, primarily putting album titles in italics. To the best my knowledge, album titles are not put in quotes, but rather italicized. (Song titles are put in quotes). Look at nearly any music-related article, and you will find this to be the case. --134.174.110.7 (talk) 17:30, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You received that message from another editor. I left you a message regarding the Capacitance article and this edit. Widr (talk) 17:41, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome! Thanks for the star. Widr (talk) 18:13, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

RC is hard work at this time

Hi! Do you have those lags in Huggle aswell? It's not funny - you have about 300 edits per minute to look through, and sometimes it takes about 5 seconds to show one edit. When it's loaded I often see that the edit has already been reverted by ClueBot. That means I have spent waiting for nothing. Regards, --Avoided (talk) 18:24, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've noticed occasional laggings too, but I've become quite good in guessing whether the reverter is CB or another human being. The bot is still usually a little bit quicker. ;-) It has happened to me a couple of times during the past few days, though, that Huggle starts to revert the next article when I have clicked the revert button on the previous page. Then I have an edit summary looking like this, and I have to rush back to revert myself. Widr (talk) 18:51, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I know that. It can be annoying if you don't notice right away that you have reverted the wrong page. People might think you are careless. Regards, --Avoided (talk) 19:00, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Federico Moccia

I'm Italian and I've corrected the title in my language. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.46.131.19 (talk) 22:27, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That might be true, but the rest of your edit was inappropriate. Widr (talk) 22:34, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

So why have you corrected everythings? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.46.131.19 (talk) 22:45, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Kevin Bridges

You keep undoing my edit on the Kevin Bridges page. If you follow his official Twitter page, you will see that the changes are accurate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.222.36.108 (talk) 23:06, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Gruffudd ap Llywelyn Fawr

You keep undoing my corrections and it is obvious that you do not know the mistakes you are making. His name is Gruffudd not Gruffydd — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.112.134.204 (talk) 18:46, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

According to what source? Widr (talk) 18:53, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

According to the fact that I'm Welsh, it's in all Welsh books regarding him and that I'm his decendant — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.112.134.204 (talk) 19:36, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You need a reliable source for your changes. It's not helping that most of your other edits seem to be vandalism. Widr (talk) 20:00, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I belive that the fact that all welsh books and his grave have his name spelled as Gruffudd are reliable sources. And I have no idea what you are on about with other edits, I have only made one spelling correction on another page.

I would like to point out that under section "King of Whales 1055-1063" there is a direct quote from historian John Davies spelling the name Gruffudd. This is in fact a reliable source. And if you took 10 minutes to ask the internet, it is shown that Gruffydd is a modern spelling of the original Gruffud name. 74.113.110.1 (talk) 18:36, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You might want to consider creating an account. Those other edits I was referring to were made by the IP address you previously used. Widr (talk) 18:40, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

	sorry could not undo the "Anti" hope you like it dick (talk) 12:20, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure what happened, but something seems fishy about some recent edits here. I'm undoing my revert and hope someone else can fix this. little green rosetta(talk)

Lucy Young

Well done for finding and removing vandalism on what looks like a very obscure page, but I'm afraid I don't have a static IP address and this is news to me. Don't really see the need to comment on the talk pages of anonymous IP addresses myself, but I suppose it's no stranger a thing than randomly inserting "poo" and "gay" into people's pages.
Happy editing,
Simon — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.151.175.179 (talk) 22:59, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. You might want to consider creating an account to avoid getting those IP warnings in future. Widr (talk) 06:01, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Trevor Eve's siblings

No problem with the removal. Just couldn't resist making the joke. Didn't intend for it to be taken seriously. "not constructive" I love you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.23.232.174 (talk) 00:23, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Doncaster

I have been aware for a while that some of the information on the Doncaster page is incorrect, and I have amended it numerous times only for it to be continuously changed back. The whole section about Doncaster being part of Scotland is incorrect, and further research into this will prove this to you. I know the man who originally supposedly said this and at the time he was misquoted. See below;

“My academic credability is in tatters thanks to a string of news stories (misquoting me and presenting their version of the facts) relating to an interesting and little known fact - that the manor of Doncaster was from c1135-1157 in the hands of the Scottish Royal family (starting with King David) - However with Scottish Devolution being big news the story and facts have been corrupted to Donny being part of Scotland!!! The worst bit is it has gone global Arrrgggghh”

If you still are doubting this then feel free to email Peter Robinson at Doncaster Museum.

If that's the case, then you should try to fix the content of the article or discuss the issues on the talk page. But you shouldn't write commentary (such as "THIS IS NOT TRUE") in the article. Widr (talk) 06:00, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As you know I did fix the content by removing it. Now that you understand the mistake made by the media can I now take off the false writing in the article without it being replaced? Itsellie (talk) 16:38, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It should be fine, especially if you explain your changes in the edit summary. Widr (talk) 17:11, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
