Paul Groves

I noticed you added a mention of Paul Groves at the page on Coleford, Gloucestershire. At present, Paul Groves redirects to a disambiguation page, where there are three people listed named Paul Groves, none of them being that one! Are you thinking of starting a page on Paul Groves (poet) - if not, I should be able to start something off in the next few days. Regards, Ghmyrtle (talk) 15:41, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Hello Barri, I recently undid your revision on the Paul Groves disambiguation page as you changed Paul Groves from "English footballer" to "English soccer player", as Groves is English and soccer is known in England as football then he should remain a footballer. For example Englishman David Beckham who plays in the States is a "footballer"...but American Clint Dempsey who plays in England is a "soccer player". USA, Canada, Australia or any other nation that refers to the sport as soccer, players from them respective countries are named "soccer players" where as players from other nations are known as "footballers". Many Thanks Footballgy (talk) 17:36, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to Sidmouth does not have an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. Thanks! Bob Re-born (talk) 01:04, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 1

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Israel Keyes, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tupper Lake. 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.
