Naim Dangoor

Great work on Naim Dangoor. I've started an article on his grandfather, Ezra Dangoor, that I'd like to try to expand a bit more for DYK. Perhaps you might be interested in helping - for a co-credit of course! Edwardx (talk) 10:15, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Candidate for Featured List

Thanks for your help there. If you're nearby, perhaps you could pop in and take some photos (if it ever stops raining!). I was there earlier in December, but was in a rush and it was the cenotaph I was mainly interested in. I've been researching Lutyens' war memorials with a view to writing some articles, and it was only later that I realised that the cemetery was so interesting and that it didn't already have an article. I'll hopefully get round to some of the red links, especially the cenotaph, in the next few days. Oh, and happy new year! :) HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 22:36, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

An article on Richmond Cemetery was long overdue, HJ Mitchell: well done for creating and developing it. The cenotaph is fascinating and deserves to be better known. I've already taken some pictures of the cenotaph and can upload them if there aren't any already on Wikimedia Commons. Do you plan to do an article on East Sheen Cemetery too? Best wishes for a happy and healthy 2016. Headhitter (talk) 23:10, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If you've got photos of the cenotaph, do upload them; there are a few on Commons already at c:Category:South African Memorial, Richmond, including the handful I took while I was there, but it never hurts to have more. I probably will put something together on East Sheen Cemetery, even if for no other reason than I don't like red links! Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:03, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
East Sheen Cemetery is now blue. See what you think. Not a bad way to spend a quiet bank holiday. I noticed the Lancaster memorial as I walked through, but didn't realise just how significant it was. I used your photo of it, though. All the best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 02:56, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Very good, Harry: your article on East Sheen Cemetery reads extremely well. Thanks for using my picture of the Lancaster memorial; it's not at all easy to photograph. I also have a picture of Roy Kinnear's grave, which I'll add after I've uploaded it to Wikimedia Commons. Best wishes Headhitter (talk) 07:58, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You're going great guns with East Sheen Cemetery, Harry: well done! When you have time to return to your original area of interest – Richmond Cemetery – you'll find that I've uploaded several new images in Wikimedia Commons. Best wishes Headhitter (talk) 21:51, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It's refreshing to leave all the admin stuff behind and just write something! Much as I like blocking vandals and chasing loonies around the place, it gets tedious and it's not nearly as stimulating, so while I've got a little bit of time on my hands I'll take the chance to actually add something to the encyclopaedia. I've got a couple of books in the post, but until they arrive I think I've got about as far as I can on the two cemeteries. I might look at filling in some of the red links. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:04, 5 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just a thought, but there's a Wikipedia meetup in London (at the Penderel's Oak on High Holborn) on Sunday. I happen to be on London this weekend anyway so I'll be there; if you fancied coming along I'd buy you a pint (or a coffee or whatever). Details are at m:Meetup/London/101. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 15:15, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the invite: I'll try to come along. Headhitter (talk) 15:27, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Fox Inn, Hanwell

Can I take it that you have visited the Fox? Good watering hole and the article very much needed your input. I have contributed to this article in the past but sometimes a fresh pair of eyes are needed to see the faux pas. No pun intended (well maybe a little bit). Oh gosh, I feel embarrassed not to make some of those corrections myself.--Aspro (talk) 16:07, 17 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Aspro. Yes, I have occasionally been to the Fox when I've been on a cycle ride along the canal. I first went there 40 years ago when a friend of mine then lived nearby and it was his local: thankfully, it doesn't seem to have changed much! Headhitter (talk) 18:18, 17 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Tommy Steele at Montrose House

Not sure why you removed my update to Petersham saying that Tommy Steele lived there when this is already on the page for Montrose House. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Reesmf (talkcontribs) 14:26, 23 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Reesmf, you didn't include a citation on the Petersham page. Headhitter (talk) 14:32, 23 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for St Leonard's Court

On 1 October 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article St Leonard's Court, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that St Leonard's Court in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames has a Grade II listed underground air-raid shelter (entrance pictured) built in the 1930s? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/St Leonard's Court. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, St Leonard's Court), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hi Headhitter. Currently expanding this article on my User:Aspro/sandbox/Twickenham Fine Ales. Just started it on the 12 of this month but already find myself asking on Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#Bot_controller_on_Wiki-break to slow down the bots. Err... in the mean time, do you know anything about Twickenham's F.A. that I can add to the article?--Aspro (talk) 22:14, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No more than what I've already included I'm afraid, Aspro (talk). Well done for attempting to expand it! Headhitter (talk) 22:48, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Page moves

I have reverted your move of the film Look Both Ways to Look Both Ways (film); there is nothing to suggest that a 2017 album takes precedence over an award-winning film, and if the article was to be moved there are a huge number of incoming links which would need to be updated. If you think that the film really should be moved, please use the formal Request Move process so that this not-uncontroversial move can be properly discussed. Thanks. PamD 08:37, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, PamD. I'd forgotten about the hatnote option. Best wishes Headhitter (talk) 11:57, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Attribution

Hi, Great work on the listing of UK synagogues. Just wanted to ask if you could attribute Jewish Small Communities Network jscn.org.uk when using any information found on our website, or links to pages on our website. Much appreciated 212.159.78.58 (talk) 11:11, 6 November 2017 (UTC)ED[reply]

Will do: thanks. The Jewish Small Communities Network is an impressive and very useful resource and if you look at the references section towards the end of List of Jewish communities in the United Kingdom article you'll see that I've now added some references that cite jscn.org.uk.
