Hello. I'm particularly interested in Wiki's List of English Almshouses. I have added a few entries and have a lot of photos of sets of houses but do not know how to add them to the text. Please advise in VERY simple language. Alan Parr (talk) 09:49, 12 January 2017 (UTC)Alan ParrAlan Parr (talk) 09:49, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of almshouses in the United Kingdom, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Coleford and Newlands. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Information icon Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Owlfield and Pegge's Almshouses, from its old location at User:Alan Parr/Owlfield and Pegge's Almshouses. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. North America1000 06:32, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
